Super Saturday is upon us, as six countries choose their songs for Eurovision. One of them is Norway, is ready to razzle-dazzle us with all things Melodi Grand Prix.

Michael is joined by special guest, Lou, to navigate through the nine songs in contention and decide if the new Tarjei Strøm era of MGP is going to amaze us.

You can enjoy MGP from the comfort of your lounge room, by tuning in to NRK TV on Saturday 28 February at 7:45pm if you’re in Europe, or on Sunday 1 March at 5:45am if you’re in Melbourne.
