#OpenUp the 2021 Eurovision National Finals Vault: The ones we missed

Music, Society & Culture

As we inch closer to the end of the 2021 Eurovision season, it’s important to remember the past… the National Final past that is.

Michael, Liam and Io are live on tape to share some of the songs of the 2021 NF season that never got to air on JOY.

Who brought the flamboyance and excellence?

How many grams are needed for a fun final?

Why is the team so surprised with Norway (and what will they never see on the Gold Coast)?

Are there any songs we’ve missed? Share them on the socials.
