Lithuania is one of the countries that have not brought promo singles in recent years and so obviously we had to design a promo single for this entry.

PROMO SINGLE – UKRAINE
Usually the host country put extra effort in to give the press a nice promo single of their entry (Belgrade 2008, Finland 2007, Norway 2010, Sweden 2013, etc) but according to our knowledge Ukraine became the first host country not to hand out a promo item for their entry TIME. So of course ESC Covers got a promo single designed for the library and it is so beautiful – the cover it like 100 better than the song.
PROMO SINGLE – BELARUS
Continuing with specially created promo CD singles, here is one created for Belarus 2017 – the song is STORY OF MY LIFE, sung by NAVIBAND. As the promo single is like a book form, ESCCovers felt it will be nice to have it as a normal CD single to be more easily displayed.
PROMO SINGLE – SWEDEN
CD singles are becoming more and more rare and even Sweden, where singles were very popular now almost have nothing. Since 2016 fans and press get USB sticks and most of the Melodifestival songs are only available as downloads. Although there were some rare promo singles of I CAN’T GO ON by Robin Bengtsson, ESCCovers decided to have a promo single designed which looks stunning.
PROMO SINGLE – SERBIA
In Kyiv the Serbian delegation handed out a USB stick of their entry IN TOO DEEP sung by Tijana Bogicevic. It is cute and special but not suitable to display in the ESCCovers library and therefore a promo single was designed.
PROMO SINGLE – HUNGARY
The Hungarian delegation brought a fantastic Rubicube as part of their promotion for their 2017 Eurovision entry ORIGO by Joci Papai and also had a memory stick with photo’s. There was, however, no promo single. Once again, ESCCovers took the initiative and had one designed for our library.
PROMO SINGLE – FINLAND
The 2017 promo single from Finland is one of the most rare ones and a copy or two of it is selling on E-bay for over 500 euro. It is also a very ordinary one, but a black cover with the name of the song and the artists. ESCCovers do have it but it does not look good in the collection and so a new one has been designed and it looks stunning.
PROMO SINGLE – NETHERLANDS
In recent years the Netherlands has not brought promo singles to Eurovision. This year, according to your knowledge, they brought nothing to promote their entry LIGHTS AND SHADOWS by OG3NE.We had seen some promo item that probably was handed out at the AMSTERDAM event. To not have the Netherlands spot in the library stay empty, we had this promo single designed.
PROMO SINGLE – BELGIUM
Belgium’s 2017 entry CITY LIGHTS by BLANCHE was hard to get as a promo single – big demand, small supply, so we had one made for the African library.
PROMO SINGLE – IRELAND
Ireland does not supply the press with a promo single every year and this year they handed out a sticker. So we had to produce a promo single for the African library and this is how it will look. DYING TO TRY is quite a good song, pity it was recorded by maybe the wrong singer.
