Through the Summer 2023 with Radio International - The Ultimate Eurovision Experience:  The Eurovision Song Contest 2023 was staged in Liverpool last May with Sweden's Loreen winning the contest for a second time after her victory in 2012 with the song "Euphoria". Her winning song for 2023 is "Tattoo". Radio International has still a number of interviews from the contest and the pre-events which will be shared during the next few summer weeks of 2023. 



This week we have interviews with three Eurovision Stars. Marc Roberts represented Ireland at the Eurovision Song Contest 1997 coming second to UK's Katrina and the Waves with the brilliant "Love shine a light". The Irish entry was "Mysterious Woman".  Then some 20 years on Claudia Faniello represented Malta at the Eurovision Song Contest 2017 with the song "Breathlessly". She had a number of great successes in the Malta Eurovision Selection shows. Our third artist represented Iceland at the Eurovision Song Contest 2018 - It's Ari Olafsson singing the song "Our Choice". All three acts were invited guests at the recent 7th edition of Eurostarz in Concert in London's Water Rats Pub and JP had the pleasure to interview all three and Radio International is glad to share the interviews on the show this week. Enjoy!

Also JP will be joined by David Mann for the Eurovision Birthday File and Eurovision Coverspot. The Eurovision News courtesy of escXtra.com with Nick van Lith. The Eurovision Spotlight is presented by Alasdair Rendall as he takes a look at Sweden's History at the Eurovision Song Contest.
