Eva Marija (Luxembourg 2026) |
Interview with Eva Marija (Luxembourg 2026): The country returned to the Eurovision Song Contest in 2024 and since then has always been in the Grand Final, however, this year it was not the case. Eva Marija represented Luxembourg at Eurovision 2026 with the song "
Mother Nature" sadly only ending up at Number 12 in Semi Final 20 with 60 points though, the song has a strong message as
Eva Marija explains to the Radio International Interview Team at the Turquoise Carpet. But also Alain Forrotti had the pleasure of a more in-depth interview with
Eva Marija which you can hear on this week's edition of Radio International this week.
