Eurovision History Chats

When Russia joined the Eurovision club, some thought that it was the triumph of the west over the east. Some thought it was a sign that perhaps it was the beginning of a new era of peace. Some just wanted to hear what they would come up with.

1994 was that year where Youdipph gave a subtle but striking entrance for Russia.
