HIGHER GROUND – PROMO SINGLE

Ever since Roy of ESCCovers followed Eurovision from 1980 onwards, he was always able to find his favourite of the year either on a vinyl single (1980 to 1993) or on a CD single (1995 to 2017). Then came 2018 and his favourite was HIGHER GROUND of RASMUSSEN from Denmark but since there was no promo single, he decided then his favourite will be his number 2, MY LUCKY DAY from Moldova as he got that on a promo CD single. But now he has had HIGHER GROUND designed as a unique one only promo single by Stephan Herholdt and so Higher ground can again be officially his top song for 2018. He only made contact this week with Jonas Rasmussen and it is a pity – had he known him earlier, he would have had another copy made for him.
