Euro-Re-Vision

The third edition of the contest produces its first commercial success - unfortunately, that success was not the song that ended up winning the contest.

This episode covers the second edition of the Eurovision Song Contest, in which ten countries each compete with a song at a TV studio in Frankfurt, Germany!

The inaugural edition of the Eurovision Song Contest was held in 1956 in Switzerland - and it was unique in many ways!    This is a very pared-down preliminary look at how the episodes to follow will go, mainly because the video of this contest has been lost to the ages.

A short introduction to the Eurovision Song Contest, what it is, and what it means to me.
