KALUSH ORCHESTRA win Eurovision 2022...
KALUSH ORCHESTRA therefore get to open the Review show!
Yes, Eurovision is all done and dusted for yet another year - Ukraine have won their third trophy by a televote landslide on Saturday 14th in Turin. Show 197 was all about who did what in the Final as far as the Top Ten finishers were concerned, a look at seven other entries that had a standout moment in my eyes, plus some other tracks that linked in with interval acts and an unexpected pregnancy announcement. Have a listen to the show:
And here is the playlist...

Now rather than re-invent the wheel, first I will direct you to my article about the Final itself:
Now to all the other 14 articles that covered the Meet & Greets and Rehearsals for all 40 nations, plus reviews of all the Jury and Public shows too...
The other link that you should be aware of is the On Demand content from RAI of all the Meet & Greets and all the Press Conferences throughout the two weeks at the Press Centre:
They are all well worth a look and you will hear when my questions were asked too! Not much else to say about the show itself, apart from congratulating Dotter on her pregnancy and Ulrikke on getting engaged!
So the last seven radio shows and 21 blog articles have been solidly about the promo parties, the chart rundown and Eurovision 2022 itself. Show 198 will be returning to the regular LET ME BE THE ONE format of news and music relating to those stories, fan favourites and new releases - there is a lot of 'other' news to catch up on that has happened since the beginning of April, including an announcement that there will be yet another offshoot of Eurovision in North America...
Could this lady be involved with the new show?
Perhaps Canada will be smoking in 2023!
