RESULTS out Saturday 7th of October
Now starts the making of the "History of old USC's". During the years 1956-2005 the United Song Contest had only one contest each year. First in 2006 UBU (United Broadcasting Union) decided to make 4 editions each year. The rules for the "USC 1956" will be explained in detail later but at this stage we know that back in the 50:ies the artist had to be from the competing country (some small countries might have special rules). The recording of the competing song must also be first released in 1955 or 1956 to compete in "USC 1956". As usual No ESC songs can participate, Covers of all kind is ok as long as they are released in 1955 or 1956. The number of participants will be limited because there will not be a semifinal in 1956.
