Show 27 August 2008

Listen to the Show:        Hour 1     |    Hour 2     |   Play List     |    Hour 3 (RIG)     

ImageThis week the story continues as Linda McDonald from the UK sent in a show suggestion in which she suggests that there are actually better songs that should have been sent to the Eurovision Song Contest then the ones that actually have been sent.  So enjoy the second part of  "Radio International goes to the National Selection of the Eurovision Song Contest"  and you can compare for yourself if the song that actually was sent in by a country deserved it or indeed the runner up was the better one.  Did you miss the first part from last week - fer not - click here to listen to it. Radio International would like a express a  big thanks to Linda for her show idea but also for her active participation in Radio International. Keep the ideas coming. Also you can send us your show ideas and we are happy to realize them. Happy Listening!  Click here to listen (Hour 3 (RIG) and Enjoy.
