 Time to reveal the host entry! Even though this theme isn't super fitting with the latvian music environment, I managed to find a song, that I'll use (obviously I could've gone the easy way with a song in russian (there's plenty in Latvia), but I decided, that for this special occasion I want to use a different language (I'm not saying russian language is less special than other languages). Though I soon came to realization, that a lot of songs, that are somewhat in other languages, involve a big part in either english or latvian language as well, plus I've used some songs in different languages (french, german, obviously russian as well) already in WWW and Retro contests, so my options diminished quite a bit. Pretty much everything else, that I could find was either Lauris Reiniks' songs in different languages (he loves to record the same song in different languages) or covers of songs in other languages (not many though). But I didn't fancy using any of these options, so my only option left was  Laura Rizzotto. Why her? Because portuguese language is pretty exotic for us, so I thought it would fit this occasion pretty well. And luckily she has a few songs in portuguese on YT (this one has an english version called "Spotlight")  Laura Rizzotto - "Iluminar" (eng: "Enlighten") (1:48+) PIC: THIS ONE or THIS ONE if possible |

Great theme!  Had to do quite some research.  I almost sent a well-known singer with a French song, but then I remembered that 2020 marks a significant anniversary for Hungary and its neighbours. So, in the name of peace and friendship,  Hungary sends a song in  Slovak! Artists: Ricco & Claudia Song: Poslednýkrát Picture
Time slot: from 2:29 |

I was going to use a singer I don't even know whether she's on youtube (and still don't) lol. And my backup would've been the 3 Spanish singing guys I used in the main contest before. However I had a look on Google and literally 2 minutes ago found this band. They're from Winterthur and consisting of members from  Switzerland and  North Macedonia (so I assume it's in the language) I would assume it's romani language (the song itself sounds very much g-word), although I can't find anything on google about the word "shukari", so I'm not 100% sure I definitely think so. Actually I haven't even thought about Romani before, but only  Macedonian or  Albanian (which I however can tell to be different). |

 Finland confirms! Luckily i was already familiar with this one so it was a pretty easy decision  This song is obviously in French  Why in French? Well the singer has stated he loves the language and wants to try different things 3:32+ |
