Episode 01 - Born in Mykonos

In this augural episode the 'Eurovision Queens' - Andy & Ryan - take you on a deep dive into Eurovision history. They share their love for the contest, its music and performers, the fashions, and the politics. They are passionate about this annual TV spectacular that is effectively the Gay Olympics, and want you to join them on their musical journey every 2 weeks. Every episode they will select 7 songs based on 7 categories: Ten to Present Day; Nineties to Noughties; 1956 to Eighties; UK Entries; The Bridesmaid Award (2nd place in an ESC final); 'The Deuce Award' for songs that should have won their national selection; and, bravely, 'The Randomiser' a song chosen entirely at random from any contest and any year - in the hands of the Eurovision Gods! A Message from Andy & Ryan: As we're just getting started, we would be hugely grateful if you could rate the podcast on iTunes, and like and share our content on Twitter and Instagram. If you'd like to suggest a song for a future episode (any category bar 'The Randomiser') then tweet us or send us an email. Thank you!
