Home Composed Song Contest 1992

Contest overview

Having won the first Home Composed Song Contest, the organiser of the 1992 event was again Morten Boldt Hansen from Denmark.

Five composers took part, this time representing four different countries. Maria Rosa Perero and Y. Sapir declined to participate, but newcomers from Sweden (Bengt Carlvik) and Italy (Fabio Giuntini) joined in the fun. There were ten songs in total.

In a basic change to the rules, songs with vocals were allowed for the first time. However, the United Kingdom was the only country to take advantage of this ruling.

The voting system remained the same and, after a close start, Bengt Carlvik pulled away from Ace Frehmen to claim the first two places with "Love Is A Liar" and the winning song, "Nights Of Berlin".
