Tom Dice won the first semi in Oslo. The 6th place in the final is the best result ever for a Belgian entry chosen by Flemish television. (Flemish and Wallon TV alternate in chosing the country's Eurovision entry).

One version is recorded ♫
The cdsingle (in cardsleeve) is available in Belgium since March 13, out on Sonic Angel (SA 10002 / 7 522 744).
The international release is handled by B1 recordings/Universal. It has the same two tracks but comes in a plastic case sleeve. (B1/ Universal 602527 447827).
The German edition has a '12 punkte aus Deutschland' sticker.
Me And My Guitar enters the Flemish Belgian charts at #2, withing a week of its release. And as expected MAMG goes to #1 in the 2nd week. Tom also charts in the Wallonia charts and after the contest he re-enters at #1. It's the first ever Belgian entry of Flemish origin to reach #1 in Wallonia.
The single debuts Dutch sales top 100 at #85, which makes it the first Netherlands charthit for a Belgian entry since the winner J'aime La Vie by Sandra Kim (1986).
In Eurovision week the song re-enters the NL top 100 at 87.
Tom surely made an impression at the contest. The week after ESC he (re)claims the #1 spot in both belgian charts.
The cdsingle is available in the Belgian shops and at BeaRecords.
Toms CD album Teardrops is out now. Listen to some excerpts at Tom Dice MySpace.
