Lithuania: 11th time lucky for Aistė Pilvelytė?
The songs and artists for the 2020 Lithuanian national final are revealed. And to our surprise (or not?) one of the contestants will be Aistė Pilvelytė. She is not quite new to the Lithuanian national final. The first time Lithuania had a national selection anyway, in 1999, she was one of the contestants. Another nine attempts to represent her country were about to follow. In 2008, 2010 and 2017, she came closest to Eurovision with a second place. Can it be 11th time lucky for her?
