Fresh from our stop in Iceland last weekend, the esctoday.com national finals tour moves on to Spain today before moving to the 2006 Eurovision Song Contest host city, Athens, Greece. Having already made special trips to Malta, Norway and Iceland, the grand final of the longest running National selection show of 2007 is the next port of call. As we prepare for our coverage of the Mision Eurovision final, we can bring you exclusive footage from the aftershow party in Iceland last weekend.

Amongst the highlights (besides the fantastic party crowd in Reykjavik), you can see exclusive performances of Eiríkur Hauksson's 2007 Eurovision Song Contest entry in English, a rare performance of the evening's host, Paul Oscar who sings his 1997 entry to a rapturous crowd and 2006 esctoday.com song of the year winner, Mihai Traistariu performing Tornero and the new single, Dimmi si o no.

From tonight, we will begin our on the ground coverage of the Mision Eurovision final. From a total of 60 hopeful acts, just five remain in the running, and the number of songs has also been voted down to five. On Saturday night, Spain will conclude the first Mision Eurovision season, and the esctoday.com team will be covering the final and everything around it live on the ground in Madrid.
