Another new addition to our playlist is the song Nii Täiuslik See, the follow-up release of Estonia’s 2013 representative Birgit Õigemeel (Et Uus Saaks Alguse). You can find the track on iTunes!
Pastora Soler achieved Spain’s best result in a decade when she finished 10th at the 2012 ESC in Baku, Azerbaijan, with the song Quédate Conmigo. Now Pastora has released a brand new song entitled Te Despertaré (I’ll Wake You Up), and her new album is due out in September. Watch the music video of Te Despertaré here

Last but not least we’d like to draw your attention to the latest single of Compact Disco who represented Hungary at the 2012 ESC in Baku (Sound Of Our Hearts). The title of the single is We Will Not Go Down, and it’s available for download on iTunes and amazon. You can check it out on soundcloud at https://soundcloud.com/compact-disco-band/we-will-not-go-down and don’t miss to tune in to ESC Radio to find it on our playlist!
As much as I appreciate you adding new releases to the playlist every month, I honestly believe that these songs are rather mediocre with the exception of TE DESPERTARE which is a great uptempo ballad in the finest tradition of the ESC. I think that there should be a higher criteria in choosing new releases. The songs have to be truly outstanding and refreshing in order to be included in the playlist: Just because a certain performer took part in a recent esc contest doesn’t mean that his or her non-esc entry is a ‘must’ hear song.
I agree with you Ron 100%. I think that the best songs (that could be ESC material, if they had participated…) are the ones to be included. For example, Helena Paparizou’s “Save Me (This is an S.O.S)” is ESC material, or Loreen’s “We Got The Power”, but others are not.
Nonetheless, thanks ESC Radio for your wonderful effort to bring the best of European music!!!
I don’t agree, because how can they choose what song is good enough and what song isn’t. I like this song from Birgit and someone else don’t
