Australia’s Eurovision Top 100 2024: Counting down from #22 to #11

Author: JOY 94.9 - LGBTI, LGBTIQA+, LGBTQIA+, LGBT, LGBTQ, LGB, Gay, Lesbian, Trans, Intersex, Queer Podcasts for all our Rainbow Communities April 5, 2024 Duration: 56:01

For the fifth time, Australia voted for their top 100 Eurovision songs of all time, thanks to the amazing people at OGAE Australia. And what better way to celebrate a public holiday than to have a Eurovision takeover!

As we got to the pointy end of the countdown, Michael, Io, Bryan, Leith and Fleur filled the studio to chat about their Eurovision favourites. With an hour of classics, the team didn’t agree on every position, but they did agree on what an Australian Eurovision museum installation should look like!
