OGAE Finland was very active at the OGAE fan stand in Kyiv during the Eurovision song contest and ESCCovers met up with Petteri Hilska from Finland but working in France. He was doing a shift at the fan stand and we rewarded him with a CD by Cole van Dias, a singer from South Africa. On this CD Cole songs various Euro covers, among them one of France.
France got 45 points from the juries, but the tele voters gave 90 points to Alma.
Israel hosted a party at the Euroclub in Kiev and there were many artists performing. Alma was one of the top performers where she performed her French Eurovision song for 2017, Requiem.
You will see photos below of Claudia Faniello (Malta), Levina (Germany) and O’G3NE (The Netherlands).
You can see Alma perform Requiem below.
