the song "La La La", then Lou of Lou and Band (Germany
2003) and Liora (Israel 2013). JP was on loction in Berlin meeting the
three performers for an interview. Being the international guest of
honour on the second edition of the Eurovision Weekend 2013 was Liora Simons who represented Israel at the Eurovision Song Contest in 1995 with the great song entitled "Amen"
reaching 8th place in Dublin. Like the other invited artists (Lou and
Betty) Liora gave a concert in front of the many international fans
being present at the event and impressed with her singing capabilities.
She not only performed her Eurovision entry "Amen" but also her version of "Ein bisschen Frieden"
which was Germany's first victory in 1982 and also "Hi" which was
Israel's Runner-Up in 1982 by Ofra Haza. For those of the fans that
could not be present in Berlin, Radio International is extremely happy
to air those song on the show this week including an interview with
Liora from Israel where she reveals her musical past, present and future
but also little anecdotes. Make sure not to miss this week's edition of
the show.

 Interview with Lou of Lou and Band (Germany 2003): Germany's entry to the Eurovision Song Contest 2003 was "Let's get happy" performed by Lou and her Band
in Riga's Skonto Hall in Latvia in 2003 reaching Number 11 in the Grand
Final. This was Lou's second attempt to enter the World of the
Eurovision Song Contest as in 2001 she tried to represent Germany with
the song "Happy Birthday Party" which did not win the German
National Final but then she returned in 2003 and won the national final
and with this the ticket to Riga. Both songs were written by Mr.
Eurovision himself - Ralph Siegel. Lou's trademark are her redish
hair and happy appearance making the viewers and listeners feel good.
