Norway's own pop diva Mathilde SPZ joins the Eurovangelists to tell us all about songwriting camps: retreats where aspiring and current Eurovision artists go to brainstorm new songs and produce tracks, some of which become competitors in national finals and even the Grand Final itself. It's a fascinating piece of the modern Eurovision world, so we're glad to have experienced camp participant Mathilde telling us all about it! Jeremy pushes for collaboration in all things, Dimitry can't decide whether to cry or dance, and Oscar & Mathilde trade definitions of "camp."
