National selection process underway

Europe is still underway with selections for this year’s Eurovision Song Contest, to be held in Oslo, Norway, in May. As usual at this time of year, we put a focus on the music from the national finals, songs that didn’t qualify for the big event but still deserve another listen. Many of them are getting a lot of airplay in their home countries, some have become hits already. Our playlist will be kept updated while the remaining countries choose their contestants.
