The 2010 FIFA World Cup begins today and here is the official theme song sung by Shakira.

Congratulations to Lena for winning the 2010 Eurovision Song Contest! Lena, who is 19 years old,  represented Germany with her song “Satellite”. It’s a very catchy pop song.

It’s interesting to note that the majority of the songs were sung in English – including the winning entry. However, the United Kingdom entry came last! Spain’s entry “Algo Pequeñito” finished in 15th place. Better luck next year!
