    S02 Ep10 Madrid1969
    Aug 31 2024
    Hello dear listeners! We're happy to be back with a new episode of Eurovision from A to Z. Holidays are coming to their end, and an new year is about to begin, so Eurovision New Year! We conclude our second season with a visit to Teatro Real in Madrid. This is the only festival held in Javier's country, Spain, so it is a festival full of siginificances, not only in the personal matter. The dictatorship took Eurovision as an opportunity to show a modern and attractive country as well as to appeat as a more "open" country. We have some of the most iconic singers of Eurovision like Iva Zanicchi from Italy, Tommy Körberg from Sweden, the Norwegian Kirsti Saprsboe, the British Lulu, the Spanish Salomé or the Monegasque boy Jean-Jacques singing to her mom. At the same time, this festival is famous for its controvesrsial ending, with the only tie in the ESC history. Four winners were declared ex aequo: Spain, United Kingdom, Netherlans and France. Do you want to know who is our winner? Will we break the tie? Do you agree with us? Listen this episode full of music and history. You can also listen our 1969 playlist and enjoy most of the songs of this edition.

    S02 Ep09 London 1968
    Jul 11 2024
    Hello dear listeners! We're glad to be back with a new episode of Eurovision from A to Z. Holidays are here and Eurovision New Year hasn't begun yet, so it's time for few news about the festival or the national finals. This time we travel to the Royal Albert Hall in London, to the first festival held under the current name Eurovision Song Contest and the first one produced in colour. Also, it is a festival full of significance for Didrik and Javier, the hosts of this podcast. It is the first victory of Spain with Massiel (also with dramas and controversies) and the first Swedish Eurovision hit with Claes-Göran Hederström. And of course, it is the first appearance of a British iconic singer: Cliff Richard. Do you want to know who is our winner? Do you agree with us? Listen this episode full of music and history. You can also listen our 1968 playlist and enjoy most of the songs of this edition.

  • The 2024 Series - The Eurovision Aftermath

    The 2024 Series - The Eurovision Aftermath
    May 17 2024
    Welcome to our show again! This is our final chapter of The 2024 Series where we analyse the recently finished Eurovision 2024 edition. Believe us, there has been a lot to analyse. It's been intense, stressing and exhausting. You will listen our opinions about this year, which are not the best or the worst but ir's our personal and own opinions. Didrik and Javier plus Lukas and Joy are here again to talk about everything or almost everything that happened at Malmö. We express our happyness for Nemo's victory, the first non binary person to achieve it (Yes! We guessed it!), but also we talk about both semifinals and their NQ countries and the analysis of the entries from the grand final. What about all the extra music controversies? Of course, we haven't escaped to them, and we didn't want. Many polemics have floated around this edition and there's space to this: the presence of that country, uncomfortableness of many delegations about the use of the contest as a political and whitewashing display, press of certain country harassing and bullying artists and journalists who were against their presence, boos to this artist and Martin Österdahl, etc. And of course, Joost Klein's disqualification. Joy tells us how her country lived one of the most extreme eurodramas of all times. And because this is a matter of music (and of politics), we have discussed about the future edition: the role of the EBU about what happened and what will happen to this group of references, future partnerships, the next host country, possible returnings and withdrawals, and of course our overall impressions of the show, the songs and many more things. Listen and enjoy!
