A Fantastic Celebration of everything Eurovision 29 Oct 2002

By Neil Blanks

Format:Audio CD

This is a well constructed piece of music history and is a fantastic celebration of everything that is Eurovision. The fact that it has the very rare English version of The Herreys "Diggi Loo Diggi Lei" is a god send. I now completely understand why they wore golden boots whilst performing the song during the contest they won. If you don't understand that, listen to the lyrics.

It has the musically "interesting" to the fantastic. For example, Conny Froboes' "Zwei Kleine Italiener" sounds like something Perry Como might have done during one of his christmas shows, whilst the excellent but haunting "Nocturne" by Secret Garden, Norway's 1995 winner, sounds a little out of place in Eurovision. Nethertheless both deserved inclusion in this compliation as examples of Eurovision at its best. What I really applaud the makers of this compilation for was the inclusion of The Shadows' "Let Me Be The One", probably one of the best songs never to win Eurovision and very difficult to find.

If you are interested in the Eurovision Song Contest, then I recommend that you buy this compilation.

Excellent Eurovision Compilation 3 May 2002

By A Customer

Format:Audio CD

An excellent Eurovision compilation. Many people in the past (for other CD's) have made the comment that they are too British centred.

However this one takes abroad sweep at Eurovision (although decidedly northern European in focus), and really shows some of the best music. this include the cracking "Better the devil you know" by Sonia in 1993 (incidentally my first real contest).

There are, of course, other gems, such as Bucks Fizz. But what truly makes this compilation stand out are the VERY rare ENGLISH LANGUAGE recordings of Diggy-Loo Diggy Ley by the Herreys (first for Sweden in 1984), and the ENGLISH version of "La det Swinge" by Bobbysocks (first for Norway in 1985). Worth the money for these two tracks alone.

Buy it and enjoy it. I certainly have!!!

Euro cheese at it's best 25 Sep 2002

By "the-masked-moose"

Format:Audio CD

A definite buy for all Eurovision fanatics. Not really for the beginner.

Includes some of the cheesiest tunes from across Europe. My current favourite being "Eres tu" by Mocedades, a song I had never heard until playing this CD.

Enjoy!!
