CD

I carry a secret torch for Icelandic singer Páll Óskar (Paul Oscar) who represented his country at the 1997 Eurovision Song Contest. A couple of years before Dana International had a better PR team behind her, Oskar, last on the bill, woke me up from my Euro-stupor, sitting on a couch, clad in black vinyl, S&M ladies draped all over his ever so camp bod. I think he came last in the count. He should have won for looking fabulous at least. Apparently a child prodigy, he’s had a varied career singing Rocky Horror, mambo, Bacharach and hi-energy disco. I finally broke down and bought his album of lounge tunes, ‘Stereo’. Will probably splash out on his techno/disco album ‘Seif’ too. Here, only for you, is an mp3 of his Eurovison song, Minn Hinsti Dans.
