LOOKING AT THE NORWEGIAN EUROVISION ENTRIES – 1981 TO 2025 – 1991

In 1991 NORWAY was represented by the group JUST 4 FUN at the Eurovision song contest. They sang MRS THOMPSON – in Norwegian. The members of the group Just 4 Fun were Marianne Antonsen, Jan Groth, Eiríkur Hauksson, and Hanne Krogh.

I was in Oslo at the time and bought the vinyl single there so it is the Norwegian pressing. The A-side has the song in Norwegian and the B-side the song in English. I like the song a lot.
