Non-Active Andorra 27 July – I trust that tomorrow love will return to me

27 July – I trust that tomorrow love will return to me

Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...

As you know, Europe is a continent made up of countries of many different sizes. From the big one out east that we don’t discuss anymore, to the little ones – some of whom punch above their weight and some, well, don’t.

Do you remember Andorra? They took part six times, and today’s birthday girl Susanne Jonah-Lynn Georgi Puigcercós was the co-principality’s last entrant. Actually, Andorra was almost going to the old Luxembourg route of picking a non-native to sing for them. Susanne originally came from Denmark, but managed Andorra’s second-best ever placing. Some of us who are probably old enough to know better miss Andorra and it’s quirkiness. Catalan is a language Eurovision needs, and as for the jury spokepeople with their interesting take on French, the Pyrenean nation is a joy to behold. Andorra – please come back.

Susanna is 50 today.

Feliç aniversari/Tillykke med fødselsdagen, Susanna!
