More information to come

The Swiss broadcaster has announced  that more information will be revealed at a later stage. As we know, this year’s songs will not be allowed to compete next year. Questions are now raised about how the Swiss will create and select the song for next year’s competition. This year’s Répondez-moi was co-written during a song writing camp by Alizé Oswald and Xavier Michel (aka Aliose, Die Entscheidungsshow 2011), Jeroen Swinnen (co-writer of Tom Dice‘s Me and my guitar, Belgium 2010) and Gjon Muharremaj himself.
