Eurovision 2023: Sweden Crowned Winner After Song Contest Stresses Unity Across Europe
Loreen had been the clear favourite going into the evening’s event. She is the only female artist to have won the Contest twice.
The Grand Final interval act began with a performance by last year’s UK runner-up Sam Ryder. He was accompanied by Queen drummer Roger Taylor. Italy’s Mahmood kicked off with John Lennon’s Imagine, followed by Israel’s Netta. Iceland’s Daoidi Freyer joined in with his own bespoke version of Liverpool girl band Atomic Kitten’s ‘Whole Again’. Sweden’s Cornelia Jakobs went next with former Spice Girl Mel C’s ‘I Turn to You.
The UK’s 1993 runner-up Sonia, also a Liverpudlian, reprised her number from that era, ‘Better the Devil You Know.’ Finally, another former winner Duncan Laurence of the Netherlands led the crowd in a stirring rendition of Liverpool anthem ‘You’ll Never Walk Alone.’
