  • S03 Ep01 - Amsterdam 1970

    S03 Ep01 - Amsterdam 1970
    Feb 5 2025
    Welcome back to Eurovision A to Z! We begin a new season with new look, new logo and a new jingle! Many thanks to Marco for creating this great jingle, thanks to Didrik for the design of the new logo, and also many thanks to Joy for designing the blog for this podcast. This episode is about 1970 edition, but there are a lot of news about the festival. At the moment of the recording, we have the first selected artist like Theo Evan and some entries like Albania or Montenegro got the ticket to Basel. As we know this is the time where national finals and internal selections are under way. Our trip lands in Amsterdam 1970, a crucial edition. Dutch television had to face the controversies aroun the four-way tie in Spain and the boycott of several countries. Eurovision decided to achieve a great makeover with great success, setting the standards of the show that we know now, as you will listen in the episode. Some of the trademarks of the festival begin here, like the intervals with dancing and, above all, the postcards. Didirk, Javier and Robert will analyse this festival with only 12 countries but full of great and iconic songs. This is the festival Dana won with the iconic "All Kinds of Everything", but also this is the festival where Mary Hopkin sang "Knock, Knock, Who's There" and Katja Ebstein's first appearance. The three of us will also praise Julio Iglesias, the most universal Spanish singer in her first international appearance, and his distant relative the Norwegian model, actress, and TT celebrity Triana Iglesias. You can also listen our 1969 playlist and enjoy most of the songs of this edition.
