Ari Ólafsson sung "Our Choice" for Iceland in 2018 and that song
was on this week's show...
Þórunn Erna Clausen was the songwriter and I got to meet both in
Amsterdam that year!
The reason for that song being on the show? Ari is one of the four
acts at Eurostarz 2023, one of the main features during show 260 - have a
listen out for the rest...
And the playlist?

That was show #1 back on Tuesday August 7th 2018! This coming Tuesday night's show is not only show 261 but also:
LET ME BE THE ONE Eurovision Radio Show's FIFTH ANNIVERSARY!
That means that there will be no news this week and probably no new releases either - just two hours packed full of songs that relate to the milestones within these wonderful five years. I hope you can join me for this big event - song one is linked to this picture...
Listeners from show #1 will realise what it is...
Where it all started - literally!
