The OGAE Song Contest 2021, hosted by OGAE UK for the eighth time, has revealed the twenty-nine songs

competing to follow in the footsteps of Dua Lipa to take the crown.

The contest is one of three held by the OGAE International Network, alongside the OGAE Second Chance Contest (in which entries from national finals that didn’t win compete against each other), and the OGAE Video Contest (in which music videos compete).

National OGAE fan clubs select a song that was released in the previous 12 month to compete against one another in these competitions. These clubs have until 18 October to submit their votes.

Previous winners have included Dua Lipa with 'Physical', Steps with 'Scared of the Dark' and our own Dami Im for Australia with 'Fighting for Love'.
