Song Contest
[ Malta's Entry ]
On
Saturday 24th May 2003, the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) presented
the 48th edition of the Eurovision Song Contest at the Skonto Olympic
Complex in Riga, Latvia. The contest, which has been broadcast every year
since 1956 in the majority of European countries, probably holds the record
as the longest-running programme on TV.
This website offers all the basic information and latest updates about Malta's entry for this festival. This year Lynn Chircop sang To Dream Again, with music by Alfred Zammit and lyrics by Cynthia Sammut. This entry earned Malta the lowest score ever and its worse placing in the Eurovision Song Contest. The winning song was Everyway That I Can from Turkey, sung by Sertab Erener.
