It’s finally happened! We have ALL 43 songs heading to Kyiv for Eurovision 2017! Armenia have kept us waiting to complete the list these last few weeks, (despite choosing their artist back in December 2016!) but a short while ago Artsvik released her song for Eurovision, entitled “Fly […]

Amid all of tonight’s Scandinavian (and Baltic!) excitement, you’d be forgiven for not remembering that the UK also released a revamped version of their song too! “Never Give Up On You” has received a bit of more of an under beat and more instrumentals, though we’re not convinced […]
