Österreich hat seinen Act: Der ORF schickt die junge Sängerin Kaleen nach Malmö. Wir haben Kaleen kurz vor das Mikro gebeten und ihr ein paar Fragen gestellt. Wer mehr über Kaleen erfahren will: Auf ihrer Website www.kaleen.at findet ihr Links zu den Social Media-Kanälen und zu ihren Videos. Und wir hoffen  auf ein ausgiebiges Interview mit ihr in einer der nächsten Episoden.In den nationalen Vorentscheiden sind einige Namen dabei, die wir bereits kennen: In Norwegen Margret Berger, die bereits 2013 mit "Feed You My Love" in Malmö war und wieder hin möchte. Und auch die Publikumslieblinge KEIINO aus dem Jahr 2019 wollen hin. Wobei "Damdiggida" die Gemüter mehr erhitzt als "Spirit In The Sky" damals. Vidbir in der Ukraine startet mit einem sehr starken Line Up. So will Melovin, der 2018 in Lissabon mit "Under The Ladder"  antrat, wieder hin. Gewählt hat  Albanien bereits, doch der Gewinnersong "Zemrën n'dorë" von Besa Kokëdhima wird - natürlich - gründlich für den Song Contest überarbeitet. San Marino setzt auf ein Songwriting-Camp, bei dem mit Hilfe von AI der Song komponiert werden soll. ESC Insight wurde in Edinburgh, Schottland, von Ewan Spence gegründet. Er war der erste, der das Thema Eurovision Song Contest in einem Podcast thematisierte. Zugleich ist ESC Insight auch eine wertvolle Quelle für Nachrichten und Wissen zur größten Musikshow der Welt. Die alljährliche Juke Box Jury legendär. Ewan Spence beweist im Gespräch seine philosophische Liebe zum Song Contest. Als Ewan mit ESC Insight und dem Podcast begann, nahm er sich vor, die Maxime der BBC auch auf dieses Projekt anzuwenden: Zu informieren, zu bilden und zu unterhalten. Es sei ein besonderer Moment, wenn Menschen, die nur beschränkt Freizeit haben, eine Stunde dieser Freizeit dafür aufwenden, den Podcast zu hören.Natürlich muss auch Ewan Spence die Fragen am Schluss beantworten, auch wenn es ihm nicht leicht fällt:Vom Eurovision Song Contest2023 auf der Playlist hat er - zu seinem eigenen Erstaunen - "Queen of Kings" von Alessandra aus Norwegen.Das Eurovision-Lieblingslied aller Zeiten? Eines kann er nicht nennen, es gibt einfach zu viele. Aber drei liegen ihm am Herzen: Aus dem finnischen Vorentscheid 2016 das Lied "Good Enough" von Annica Milan zusammen mit Kimmo Blom. Ein Klassiker aus dem Jahr 1974 ist der zweite Song auf seiner Liste: Der niederländische Beitrag "I See A Star" von Mouth & MacNeal hat es ihm da besonders angetan. Und der letzte der drei Songs stammt aus dem Jahr 2011 und aus Bulgarien: Poli Genova mit "Na Inat".In der Kleinen Song Contest Geschichte am Schluss erzählt Alkis von der angeheirateten Verwandtschaft der Sängerin Edith Piaf.

"We're 90 metres underground… on generators… and we're singing." If you can find a more poignant quote from this year's Eurovision season then we'll eat our vinoks! The boys turn their attention to Vidbir, the Ukrainian national selection held in an underground metro station in Kyiv. The songs were as impressive as the production, but what cherry has been picked to represent Ukraine in the Second Cherry Song Contest 2023?

MÉLOVIN has had an eventful few months. But with his new single "Don't Need Your Love," he's fighting back and standing up to the haters. Ukraine's Eurovision 2018 singer also discusses his artistic music video, his message about believing in yourself and the ongoing war in Ukraine. He also teases a potential run at Vidbir 2024 — Ukraine's national selection for Malmö. Thank you to Vasyl for the translation voiceovers!

After winning Vidbir 2023, TVORCHI have released a revamped Eurovision version of their song "Heart of Steel". William reacts to the revamp and talks with TVORCHI about their creative process behind the changes, their plans for Liverpool, and what it means to be representing their country as both the defending Eurovision winner and a nation at war.

Zwei wichtige Termine stehen an, bevor sich Merci, Cherie in die Silvesterpause begibt: Am 21. Jänner 2023 findet im Gugg in Wien das traditionelle Eurovision-Live der OGAE Austria, des österreichischen Fanclubs statt. Live zu Gast sind Vincent Bueno (AT 2021), Bojana Stamenov (SR 2015) und die Eurovision-Gewinnerin Emmelie de Forest (DK 2013). Mehr Infos gibt es auf der Webseite der OGAE Austria. Und am 27. Jänner 2023 findet im Palais Eschenbach in Wien zum ersten mal die Lange Nacht der Podcasts statt und Merci, Chérie - Der Eurovision Song Contest Podcast ist natürlich live mit dabei. Als besonderen Gast haben wir Elisabeth "Lizzi" Engstler auf der Bühne. Mit dem Duo "Mess" hat sie beim Song Contest 1982 einen Kultauftritt mit "Sonntag" hingelegt und ist seit dem auch als TV-Moderatorin in zahlreichen Wohnzimmern daheim. Legendär sind natürlich ihre Moderationen der österreichischen Vorentscheide zum Song Contest. Auf der Bühne des Palais Eschenbach wird sie von ihren Erfahrungen berichten. Mehr Infos und Tickets gibt es auf www.langenachtdespodcasts.at.Die ersten Songs sind da: Die Ukraine hat mit Vidbir 2023 ihren Vorentscheid in einem Schutzraum in der U-Bahn abgehalten. Gewonnen hat das Elektro-Duo TVORCHI mit "Heart of Steele".Beim albanischen Festival i Këngës haben Albina dhe famijla Kelmendi das Publikumsvoting gewonnen und damit die Beerechtigung, mit "Duje" ihr Land bei Eurovision zu vertreten. Ob das die letztgültige Fassung ist, bleibt abzuwarten, denn erfahrungsgemäß schickt Albanien meist ein Revamp der Songs.Sennek, die Vertreterin Belgiens 2018, gibt in ihrem Heimatland eine Reihe von Konzerten, die sich exklusiv dem Eurovision Song Contest widmen. Die Termine gibt es auf ihrer Webseite.In den letzten Wochen fragten wir gemeinsam mit der OGAE Austra: Welcher Beitrag aus dem Vereinigten Königreich ist der beste aller Zeiten? Wer kommt in die Top 10 und wird bei uns in voller Länge gespielt? Und wer landet weit hinten? Außerdem hört ihr viele Hörer:innen, wem sie warum 12 Punkte gaben. Und eine Nachricht des Siegers, der Siegerin oder der Sieger-Band. Wer könnte das sein? Danke an alle, die mitgevoted haben. Die ergebnisse waren teilweise richtig knapp.In der Kleinen Song Contest Geschichte am Schluss widmet sich Marco einer B-Seite.

Poco a poco vamos conociendo más canciones que competirán por hacerse un lugar en nuestras playlists y en Róterdam 2020. De hecho y a día de hoy, ya conocemos 11. Esta semana eran reveladas 5 y las presentamos en este podcast. Además de la actualidad eurovisiva generada esta semana, comentamos el Eesti Laul estonio, el Söngvakeppnin islandés, el Vidbir ucraniano y la 3ª y 4ª semi del Melodifestivalen. Para cerrar, predecimos las cuatro canciones de cada semi del Festival da Canção portugués. Gracias, como siempre, a @lolo_dato, @Xan_UpNorth y @maumauag75. Presenta con el crítico musical modo on: @Xabi_CM

Hemos sobrevivido a un supersábado repleto de propuestas eurovisivas, pantallas por doquier y novedades que se suman a la lista de participantes que viajarán a Róterdam en mayo. Es momento de tomarse un descansito y, aprovechando que ayer fue el Día Mundial de la Radio y que hoy es San Valentín, hemos querido aflojar el ritmo y dedicar parte de este podcast a esas canciones de amor/desamor/románticas/ñoñas de eurovisión que por alguna razón (o no) nos conmueven, nos transportan, nos ponen tontos o, simplemente, nos apetece escuchar de vez en cuando. Por supuesto, no dejamos de lado la actualidad eurovisiva y hablamos de las nuevas incorporaciones a la lista de ESC2020 (con Top 6 (so far) incluído), del Melodifestivalen, del Vidbir y el Söngvakeppnin y comentamos nuestras favoritas de las finales de Noruega y Lituania. Todo esto sería imposible sin la imprescindible participación de los angelotes-cupidos-corazones de This is Galicia calling: @lolo_dato, @Xan_UpNorth y @maumauag75.
