Introducing Os Trabalhadores do Comércio

This is one of my all time favourite songs from our national selection.
The group Os Trabalhadores do Comércio were a very succesfull portuguese bands of the 80's and would have certainly made a big splash has the closing act in the 1986 Eurovision.

They came second in the Festival a Canção 1986!

Eurovision sub-logo and stage revealed

Sub-logo 2008

I think this is supposed to be very artistic!

Aren't we all glad Eurovision has a permanent logo!

The stage

Made with bit and pieces from the Helsinki 2007 stage!

Very environmentally friendly...
