OSLO—Excited with pride, Norwegians sang in the streets of Oslo on Sunday, celebrating Norway’s National Day snd the country’s Eurovision Song Contest victory.

Hundreds of Norwegians sang along to Alexander Rybak’s winning song Fairytale as they walked in the country’s tradintonal National Day parade（游行）celebrating the Norwegian constitution.

Alexander Rybak—called “Alexander the Great”by the Norwegian media—won a great victory in the Eurovision Song Contest (ESC) by gaining the most votes in its 53-year history in Moscow on Saturday

Alexander has played the violin and the piano since he was five years old, and he also composes his own music and sings. In 2006 he won the Norwegian talent show Kjempesjansen with his own song Foolin. Alexander has performed with one of the world’s most celebrated violinists, Pinchas Zukerman, won the Anders Jahres Culture Prize and has been the concertmaster for Norway’s largest symphony orchestra（交響樂隊(duì)）for youths, Ung Symfoni.

Norwegian Prime Minister Jens Stoltenberg said there was clearly something special about the 23-year-old and his folk music. “This is a phenomenal performance by a young and talented  musician,” Stoltenberg said in a statement.

Rybak is expected to draw a large crowd of fans to Oslo’s Gardermoen airport when he arrives next Sunday, after having invited all his countrymen from the stage in Moscow.

With Rybak’s win, Norway will host next year’s Eurovision finals, a show that reaches a television audience of over 100 million people. Norway’s Minister of Culture, Trond Giske, promised that Norway would put on a splendid show next year but without spending as much as Moscow, which spent 24 million euros this year. “I don’t think that is necessary,”he told national broadcaster NRK.

The win was Norway’s third. The Nordic country also won the Eurovision Song Contest in 1985 and 1995.
