Eurovision Song Contest Wiki


Hanne Krogh is a Norwegian singer who began her career at the age of nine, later releasing her debut album in 1970. To date, she has released twenty solo studio albums, four as part of the duo Bobbysocks! and one with the Three Tenors.

She first represented her home country as a soloist at the Eurovision Song Contest 1971 in Dublin with the song "Lykken er", finishing in 17th place with 65 points.

However, she is better known for representing her home country fourteen years later in Gothenburg alongside Elisabeth Andreassen as part of the duo Bobbysocks! with the song "La det swinge", which saw the country claim its first ever victory with 123 points. This followed six previous last place finishes.

She also competed for Norway in the Eurovision Song Contest 1991 in Rome as part of the group Just 4 Fun with the song "Mrs. Thompson", finishing in 17th place with 14 points.

In 2025, she reunited with Andreassen as Bobbysocks! in an attempt to represent Norway in Basel but finished in a respectable 3rd place in the national final.
