Let It Swing! Norway reveals 21 songs competing to defend Eurocrown


The 21 song titles (and writers) taking part in the Norwegian MGP, which will select the host country's Eurovision entry in 2010, have been revealed here.

And what a list it is! There are some extremely familiar names, not least 2 times Eurovision winner, Rolf Løvland (above), who has submitted a song called The Touch.

Other songwriters on the list are Mira Craig (composer of Hold On Be Strong), Alexander Stenerud (who entered MGP in 2008 with Find My Girl), Ben Adams, Mark Read, Christian Ingebrigtsen, David Eriksen (aka boy band A1), Melodifestivalen veteran, Fredrik Kempe and Maltese lyricist, Gerard James Borg!

It looks like Norway is going all out to get a great song to represent them in Oslo next year. And the good news is we don't have to wait too long before the Norwegian selection kicks off. The first semi final takes place on 8 January.

Let It Swing!
