    <description>We start with expertise and end up in Eurovision. It’s kind of our thing.
Eurovision Song Context is a monthly podcast that looks at the Eurovision Song Contest through an unexpected lens: expert insight. Each episode, a guest from a different field — psychology, fashion, politics, design, linguistics, and more — talk about their work and how it helps us understand 2–3 Eurovision entries in a whole new light. 
Are these songs genuinely good? So bad they’re good? Or just weirdly unforgettable?
Longform episodes come out on the 12th of every month (the "douzeth"). We're where brilliant minds meet bad key changes.

  <itunes:subtitle>Our guest is Sheldon Rocha Leal,  he’s a Musicologist, Musician and Songwriter. He’s also the author of a fantastic article called Moments That Changed Music III: Milli Vanilli. We’ll talk about how the Milli Vanilli scandal changed the music industry, living in a pre-hip hop world, modern interpretations about what actually happened, the connection between Milli Vanilli’s producer Frank Farian and Eurovision superproducer Ralph Siegel, and Milli Vanilli’s Rob Pilatus singing real backup vocals for Germany’s 1987 entry by a band called Wind, which placed 2nd in the contest.
