Eurovision Insight Podcast: Winning Web Jokers, Lena and Guy Chambers Written by on November 9, 2010 | 1 Comment

Eurovision fans have started the weekly ritual of gathering around their web browser, searching for a live stream of the TV stations around the continent. As each country searches for their Song for Europe, we all want to watch the progress. For everyone else, here’s the recap.

Junior Juke Box Jury is back on Friday, so for now, here’s this week’s major news from the world of Eurovision.

Eurovision Insight Podcast: Winning Web Jokers and Guy Chambers

Ukraine’s second semi final is over, as is the Web Joker round of Melodifetivalen. We’ve got one of the qualifying songs from Sweden, as well as news of a former winning throwing her bobby socks into the ring.

There’s also the curious case of Lena’s twelve songs. Even though Stefan Raab has said the composers of the songs will be kept private till the songs are publicly aired in Germany, we know that Guy Chambers (Angel, Rock DJ, Millennium, etc) has one of the tracks. What masterful PR!
