I’ve picked a treat today, as this is one of my favourite Eurovision songs of all time. Would you like me to gush all over it, or will the song speak for itself?
OK, I’ll gush. One More Time are a brilliant trio of performers who song is one of the best Sweden has ever produced. In a pre-qualfying contest, they scored maxima from 10 out of 28 juries, winning it. In the final, they only got one maximum and finished third. Go figure, especially when you consider what won in 1996. It’s the welcome addition to any playlist of classic Eurovision, and it’s just as good in English. I give you the masterpiece that is ‘Den vilda’.
