As the ESC Insight team gather in Malmo and Eurovision 2013 is nearly here, it’s time to download this year’s ESC Insight Guide Book.
ESC Insight 2013 Guide Book Cover
As the coverage from Malmo and the Eurovision Song Contest 2013 gets under way on ESC Insight, it’s time to publish this year’s eBook covering the performers and countries that are part of this year’s Song Contest. Welcome to the 2013 Eurovision Guide Book
The ESC Insight Unofficial Guide to the 2013 Eurovision Song Contest.
Why an Ebook?
As with our guide to previous Song Contests , we’ve pulled together information from around the internet, including the official site www.eurovision.tv (used with permission), Wikipedia, the artists own pages, and coverage from some of the other Eurovision sites. We always said ESC Insight was about bringing you more information that was useful to you, and our eBook guides continue that mission.
In the pages of the ESC 2013 guide, we look at the countries in turn, with information on:
- The song, performer, composer and lyricist.
- Biographical information.
- Historical statistics for each country.
- Thoughts from Ewan and Sharleen on the entry.
- …and a handy space for you to take your own notes as the live shows on May 14th, 16th, and 18th draw ever closer.
As always, thanks go to Ben Morris for the Minipop icons that grace the guide book.
We’d also like to thank the BBC’s Andrew Cartmel, Head of the UK Delegation at Malmo 2013, for writing the foreword to the Guide Book.
How to get the eBook
The ESC Insight Unofficial Guide to the 2013 Eurovision Song Contestis a free download. If you’d like to share it online, we’d ask you to credit ourselves here at ESC Insight and link back to this page, rather than pointing directly to the eBook.

Also available on Amazon Kindle
As well as the PDF download above, we’re going to try something new and publish the Guide for Amazon Kindle. The content on Kindle is the same as the PDF, but Amazon won’t let us set the price any lower than 75p (or the local currency equivalent). You can consider it a very small donation to ESC Insight, and we’ll likely have enough to buy the team a coffee when it’s all over.
A great read as normal!
Is there going to be a 2nd edition of Beyond The Sequins as well?
Thank you for the Ebook. Thoroughly enjoyed it.
Howdy, i believe that we noticed you actually stopped at my site i really came to go back the select? . Now i am attempting to find points to enrich my web page! I suppose it has the acceptable to implement many of your opinions!
Many thanks. Yet again I’ll be able to impress (or bore) my friends with facts about all the artists when I throw my Eurovision party thanks to you at ESC Insight.
