MALTA EUROVISION COVERS
To coincide with ESC Covers going to Malta for the 2016 Eurovision song contest, we will look at a few of the Eurovision songs from Malta that had been covered in South Africa. Unfortunately no Junior Eurovision song from Malta has been covered. The first in the series is the 1998 Maltese entry THE ONE THAT I LOVE from Chiara.
Nedine Blom covered it as HELDER SKYN DIE MAAN (Bright shines the moon).
Nedine is one of just 2 South African singers who have covered Junior Eurovision songs – her one was a Latvian entry
