The Legendary Song Contest is my attempt at creating a whole Eurovision season.  The concept is simple.  48 countries select a decade.  From that decade a song is selected and will represent them at a Contest complete with semi finals 1 and 2.  Up to 20 voters will then phone in their votes for the Grand Final.  It's all fun, but by goodness listening to this show re-acquaints you with Euro songs lost but not forgotten.  Broadcasting on Mearns FM.

So Liverpool will host Eurovision 2023.  I speak to Andrew and Jason from that fair city.  There is a look at the Top 10 of the Unofficial Eurovision Pop Chart and loads more great music.

We continue our plough through Europe for the National songs competing to get into the Legendary Song Contest.  Basically it's a DIY Eurovision Song Contest, which will culminate in 20 voters from around the Eurovision World voting to choose their ultimate winner.  It is a pleasure doing this show because I and perhaps you can re-discover songs that perhaps don't get as much airplay these days.

Rumour of host city, the new top 10 for the Unofficial Eurovision Pop Chart, plus LOADS more Eurovision stuff.

Imagine a Song Contest featuring 48 countries.  Each country is drawn a decade from the 1990s onwards and then from that decade another draw is made to choose a song.  That is the Legendary Song Contest.  Tune into this rather spiffing #Eurovision show to hear more PLUS Jan Johansen, who speaks about his entry for Sweden in 1995.

A Eurovision Radio Show broadcasting from Mearns FM in Scotland.  It includes the unique and rather brilliant unofficial Eurovision Pop Chart.  

This was broadcast on Wed 28/9/2022 and it's non stop too.

Join Tommy and Freelance Eurovision journalist Kevin Sherwin as they discuss whether the UK will host next year's Eurovision Song Contest 2023.  The lack of confirmation suggests the BBC may not host the event.  If so, Kevin talks up Aberdeen as host city.  It's a fascinating and interesting chat with opinion and debate.  Kevin has some great knowledge about the Contest so have a listen and enjoy.

I take you back to May 2018 and the aftermath to the Eurovision Song Contest in Portugal.  This show was a new attempt to create something different, wrapping everything up with Eurovision news, new singles, etc.  It was a good time.

A combination of 3 shows wrapping up the reviews for Eurovision 2021.  Part 6 looks at the Big 6, while Steve Thornton joins us for our predicted Top 10 AND the songs that are going to struggle.

A blast from the past - Tommy's Eurovision Show with listeners from around Europe for a bit of fun and loads of Eurovision music from March 2019.
