On this episode of Éirevision, Conor and Lou share their thoughts on the latest entries revealed for Eurovision 2024. We've had so many songs released over the last ten days. Today, we're catching up as the United Kingdom's Olly Alexander releases his ESC song - "Dizzy". Australia, Iceland, and Serbia have also chosen their songs!

Back in December 2023, the BBC announced Olly Alexander as the UK representative. Of course, everyone will know Olly from his time as lead singer of Years and Years and his acting credentials such as It's a Sin. Longtime Eurovision fan Olly has decided to rep the UK with the song, "Dizzy" - a song written by himself together with Danny L. Harle.

Australia have been keeping their representative under lock and key. But not anymore! Australia Decides 2019 runners-up Electric Fields have been internally selected by SBS to head to Malmö with "One Milkali (One Blood)". The song is sung in English, Pitjantjatjara and Yankunytjatjara, which is an Aboriginal language of the Anangu peoples – one of the oldest living cultures on earth. 

Serbia's Pesma za Evroviziju 24 concluded at the weekend. Despite many worthy songs competing, the trophy and honour of representing Serbia went to Teya Dora with "Ramonda".

Finally, Iceland's Söngvakeppnin 2024 came to an end with Hera Björk taking the crown. She previously represented Iceland at Eurovision in 2010 with "Je ne sais quoi". Unlike previous years, the winner of Söngvakeppnin will not represent Iceland at Eurovision. Instead, the broadcaster RÚV and the winning artist will decide together if they wish the participate at Eurovision 2024.

What do we think of the four latest songs? Listen now to find out!
