It's that time of year again... If you want the Song Contest joy to endure beyond 11.30 on Saturday evening (or whatever time the results process does actually finish - want to take bets?), why not have a run through this latest selection of Eurovision and Eurovision-related tracks.
Plenty of recent entries and a smattering of oldies, naturally. In addition, however, this year I've thrown in:
- a few further cover versions (including one of Israel's 1970s winner from Israel's 2018 winner),
- a number of what-they-did-later tracks from several Song Contest winners (Lulu, Sandie, Nicole),
- a couple more tracks that tried to win A Song For Europe and didn't,
- and to start with, the best half-time entertainment there ever has been, and in all probability ever will be (until the next time Sweden win, at least).
Enjoy!
