OGAE FanVision Song Contest 2019 - Interview with Michele Imberti (Sweden): Back in 2010 Sweden was represented by Anna Bergendahl at the Eurovision Song Contest from Oslo, Norway with the song "This is my life" which failed to qualify for the Grand Final to the contest and ended up at Number 11 in Semi Final 2. In 2019, Anna returned to Sweden's Melodifestivalen with the song "Ashes to Ashes" which made it to Number 10 in the Grand Final. Reason enough to cover that song thought Michele Imberti and entered that particular song into the OGAE FanVision Song Contest 2019 as part of the Eurovision Weekend 2019 in Malta. He even bettered the result of Anna and took the song to Number 2 in the competition. Prior to the contest JP had the pleasure to chat with Michele which you can hear on this week's edition of the show.
