How to enter the Eurovision song contest?

trap4 · 2002-07-20 18:40:08

Please don't laugh but, even though I don't have any formal music training and can't sing for the life of me, I have actually come up with a melody (and accompanying guitar chords) which everyone who'll listen tells me is damn catchy! :cool: I've never written a song before but am really enjoying the buzz of having my own…

I've never written a song before but am really enjoying the buzz of having my own tune. And I'm just wondering if there is any hope of a nobody like me actually entering the Eurovision Song Contest? How does one enter? What are the deadlines?

Also, I need to find a good singer/guitar-player to perform it. How do I go about finding one?

TIA

Thanks and sorry, didn't mean to spam - I'd posted in the other forum before I realised this was probably more appropriate.

Thanks again :cool:

All those too crappy too be in this years are in next years while the botton 8 of this year get next year off.

I gotta ask this, why would you, would anyone want to enter the Eurovison, its got zero cred, its killed several possible careers, anyone remember Jump the Gun. No its not a good idea, if winning a song contest is your ambition thier are others out there with less bad PR. Just don't ask me to name them.

Mike.
