In 1987 NORWAY’s Eurovision entry was MITT LIV by KATE (GULBRANDSEN). Rolf Lovland and Hanne Krogh wrote the song. My vinyl single is the Norwegian pressing with the Norwegian original on the A-side and the English version THE WOMAN AND THE GIRL IN ME on the B-side.

Fortunes changed for NORWAY in 1985. After having come last and even getting zero points several times, they finally won the Eurovision song contest for the first time in 1985 with LA DET SWINGE. It was performed by a female duo called BOBBYSOCKS. This duo was made up by HANNE KROGH and ELISABETH ANDREASSEN. My vinyl single has both the Norwegian original and the English version on it. The English version is called LET IT SWING. Rolf Lovland wrote the original song and Alixzandra wrote the English lyrics.
