"Come Together" to the 2016 Eurovision

The logo and slogan of the 2016 Eurovision Song Contest

After months of waiting, the logo of the 2016 Eurovision Song Contest is already released along with the slogan. I must say that it was indeed worth the wait and the logo exceeded my expectations, the slogan still has the peace and unity concept but this one is delivered with different words and with a really catchy one.Well, for the past few years we have had amazing logos and SVT did a great job in making the one for the 2016 contest. 

The logo has a galactic colour scheme which is indeed amazing and the globe, seems to represent the Sony Ericsson Globe that will be the venue for the 2016 Eurovision song contest. The stars in the globe, seems to represent the way people from different parts of Europe or the world to come together and be united through music. When we are united we could shine as bright as a star and give light to the dark, this really shows the power of music which could unite people with different beliefs or opinions. This actually brings Eurovision back to the reason on why it was made, as the biggest contest in the world had been uniting many people for the past six decades and now it is 61 years old already.

Many people, had came together through this contest and watching Eurovision is also something that could be done to unite people as people come together when they watch it albeit some of them might not like it at first but once you watch the whole thing you would end uo falling in love with the contest and you would not regret it. The contest was made to unite Europe but it turn out that, it did not just unite the continent but also the world and many human beings in the world.

Well, I just hope that Eurovision would stay the same and no more non-European related country would join as it is good the way it. Australia is fine but I hope that countries like Lichtenstein or Kosovo will debut and maybe Monaco, Andorra or Luxembourg could return to this wonderful contest. Albeit I come from Indonesia, I think that having an Indonesian performing in the contest is already a great thing and Eurovision should stay as it is, a contest done by European and European related countries with intercontinental fans. Maybe, if the non-European related countries want to join, they could send someone of their origin to join.
