Alma Čardžić

In 1994 Bosnia and Herzegovina was to take part in Eurovision for the second time as an independent nation, but they were still at war. Nevertheless the internally selected artists Alma & Dejan managed to travel to Ireland, where they were met with such a huge round of applause that they couldn't hear the music.In this episode Emil gets to speak to Alma Čardžić, who besides this very emotional participation once again was chosen to represent her country in 1997 with the song "Goodbye" and got to return to Dublin.Since then, she has pretty much turned away from artistry and nowadays spends most of her time rescuing stray dogs and cats, taking care of them and trying to find them new homes. The good-hearted Alma pays for this project all out of her own pocket, so we at Eurovision Legends would like to take this opportunity to let you know how you can help Alma in her efforts, by donating a small sum of money here:paypal.me/Almasanimals2020Legend: Alma ČardžićSongs: Ostani kraj mene (Bosnia & Herzegovina 1994), Goodbye (Bosnia & Herzegovina 1997)Host: Emil LöfströmContact: emil@schlagervannerna.seInstagram Facebookhttp//www.eurovisionlegends.se Hosted on Acast.
