Contest overview
The Home Composed Song Contest returned to former host city Hamburg in 2008, with the organiser this time being 2007 winner Stefan Engel.
The innovations started in the previous year showed no sign of stopping under Stefan's enthusiastic leadership. The contest again had its own website and was conducted almost exclusively online. The songs were placed on the site in the order that they were received, while the audiovisual aspect was underlined with several introductory video clips and - in a new development that had been the dream of many a HCSC regular over the years - the voting itself was conducted in an impressive video presentation, complete with Eurovision-style scoreboard. Some clips from that show can still be viewed here, and the colourful programme that was circulated to all participants after the event can be downloaded in PDF form here.
Online support was provided by Radio International, who presented an hour-long programme dedicated to the contest (listen here) and formed their own guest jury, while the contest's website itself also contained a voting feature that was included in the final result - this would become a regular feature of future editions. The scoresheet below shows these guest juries at the end, numbered 
(Radio International) and 
(Internet).
While the contest continued to expand and evolve, the only new country to appear on the scoreboard this year was Serbia, represented by Boban Djekić - who promptly won the competition on his first attempt with the polished "Vino", beating out fellow first-timer Heja from Turkey and defending champion Stefan Engel from Germany. Just below them, persistence paid off for the contest's most experienced competitor, Martin Faulkner from the UK, whose band Vulnerable recorded comfortably their best result to date in fourth place - while fellow Brit Dan Dyer was unfortunately disqualified when his votes failed to reach the organisational team in time.
