LOOKING AT THE NORWEGIAN EUROVISION ENTRIES – 1981 to 2025 – 1989
In 1989 NORWAY selected BRITT SYNNOVE JOHANSEN to represent them at that year’s Eurovision song contest. The song she sang was VENNERS NAERHET. Inge Enoksen composed the song and Leiv N Grotte wrote the lyrics (both totally unknown to me). I have the vinyl single with the original Norwegian song on th A-side and the English version WORDS OF FRIENDSHIP on the B-side.

LOOKING AT THE NORWEGIAN EUROVISION ENTRIES – 1981 to 2025 – 1988
I was in Europe in 1988 and there were some good songs. Actually Germany and Finland ended as my 1st and 2nd for that year, and it also turned out my overall number 1 and 2 of all Eurovision songs. During a trip to Oslo I came across the MELODI GRAND PRIX LP with all 22 songs from that year. NORWAY brought KAROLINE KURGER to represent them with FAR VAR JORD. ANITA SKORGAN composed the melody and ERIK HILLESTADT wrote the lyrics. Having bought the LP with all entries, I did not look for the vinyl single of Karoline. Some years later I gave the LP to someone as I then got the CD of 1988.
