The Affair

Den Norske MGP Affair – 18 May 2013

The Programme

It’s the monthly Time Warp Day on The Affair, and our destination this week is Oslo right after Anita Skorgan won the 1979 Melodi Grand Prix and was getting ready to represent Norway at that year’s Eurovision in Israel.

In true Affair style we’re celebrating that by playing a selection of songs which didn’t win the Melodi Grand Prix.

Don’t forget, you can get more of JOY’s Eurovision coverage at JOYEurovision.

(Many thanks to JOYEurovision’s Malmo correspondent Michael for the interview with 2013 Italian entrant, Marco Mengoni which you can hear in the podcast).
