Flying the Blue and Yellow (and Orange): Ukraine at Eurovision

Ukraine 20160528As we prepare for a trip to Ukraine for next year’s Eurovision Song Contest, the JOYEurovision team took a trip of their own down memory lane to listen to what Ukrainian beauties had come before.

From talk about leather and hamster wheels, to the apparent link between Ukrainian entries and politics, you’ll get a quick history lesson with this week’s show.

Are you heading to Ukraine next year? Let us know by emailing joyeurovision@joy.org.au

And join us as we go OUT, LOUD and PROUD for Radiothon next week!
