Junior Eurovision Song Contest Interviews - Melanie Garcia and Levi Diaz: The Radio International colleague Alain Forrotti will be out and about in Nice at the Junior Eurovision Song Contest 2023 to conduct interviews with the young artists which you can hear on Radio International in the days to come. But to gear you up JP had the pleasure to meet two former Spanish Junior Eurovision Song Contest participants Melanie Garcia and Levi Diaz at the Eurovision PreParty 2022 in Madrid, Spain. Levi represented Spain in 2021 with the song "Reir" coming 15th while Melanie represented Spain in 2019 with the song "Marte" coming 3rd. Radio International will air those two interviews on the show this week.


The Home Composed Song Contest 2023 - The Result:  The annual music competition for non-professional musicians for 2023 has decided on a winner through public vote and jury vote. Visit the website of the Home Composed Song Contest 2023 - click here to see the result.

The Home Composed Song Contest is in its 32nd year, this is a competition for Eurovision fans who write, perform and produce their own music, who enter their own original song composition (audio only) and then also take part as a jury, to help choose the winning song. This year there are 27 songs from 13 different European countries.

The Grand Final Results Show of the Home Composed Song Contest 2023 was presented LIVE on this YouTube Channel on Saturday 11 November 2023 at 2100 hours CET with Special Guests from the World of the Eurovision Song Contest being part of the show.
