Very young girls did it well. On this week we have Demi Holborn's debut, who was 10 years old (younger than Nikki Webster and Lauren Waterworth), but it's not a record. Belgian singer Silvy Melody was only 9 in 1990 year, when her duet with Danny Fabry became top 10 hit in my chart.

Waiting for something I recognised to pop up as a new entry here again. 'Underneath Your Clothes' :wub: What an era for Shakira. Her top 20 follow up was also fab too I found.

"Underneath Your Clothes" is my favourite song from Shakira.

It's only places like these you'll see Claire Sweeney not just at #1 but three weeks :o

It's only places like these you'll see Claire Sweeney not just at #1 but three weeks :o

 

A whole Claire's album is very good and also she recorded nice cover version of my favourite Blondie single "Sunday Girl".

 

 

Oh there's a Claire Sweeney fans Facebook group here:

 

https://www.facebook.com/groups/626310345052613

 

She recently did some radio commentary for Eurovision I believe, as she's from Liverpool.

 

When You Believe sounds like something Martine McCutcheon might have recorded on her debut album. I vaguely remember it but it didn't chart, was it actually released as a single?

Was Rainbow a hit for you? I guess that was later in 2002:

Yes.

That's a promo 1-track release, presumably sent out to radio stations, but I couldn't find any evidence of a proper commercially released CD single. Which makes me wonder if it was either cancelled, or was only intended as a radio single to promote the album.

I didn't chart album tracks, but this song also had the official video, so still legal for my chart.

 

Non-singles are available for chart if...

1. Official video was filmed (for sample : ABBA - When I Kissed The Teacher)

2. Song was a part of national ESC-preselection

3. For Lithuanian songs radio/TV airplay is enough, because Lithuanian music videos were very rare thing in 2000s decade, also I checked Lietaus Top 20 radio chart.

I see, that's interesting.

 

I guess before downloads/streaming, it was hard to get hold of a lot of songs on MP3 from Eurovision national finals, maybe studio versions don't always even exist, e.g. 2006 City Chix - All About You in the UK final never had a release of any kind as far as I know.
