  . . . We don't think so and Wales Douze Points could not be more pleased to learn that today local girl Bonnie Tyler has been selected to represent the United Kingdom at this years Malmo final on 18 May.
The same day that W12P live! the audio platform for Wales Douze Points launches at oystermouthradio.com we learn that not only is there a representative that we have faith in but she happens not only to be Welsh but from The Mumbles, where W12P live! is located and broadcasts from.
Although born in the Swansea/Neath suburb of Skewen, Bonnie (or Gaynor Jenkins to give the 61 year old singer her birth name) she has lived in The Mumbles for well over thirty years and her home is just a stone throw from our Dunns Lane studio.
There is a tremendous amount of excitement from Wales Douze Point Project Manager and broadcaster Joel Bennett (who also shares the same birth day as Bonnie which is 8 June) but from the The Mumbles community, the whole of Wales and particularly the staff at Oystermouth Radio with Welsh Connections broadcaster Mike Kennedy best summing it up,
"What fantastic news. 'Believe in me' is a brilliant song and Bonnie is going to take us to the top" ! Bonnie Tyler Representing the UK in Malmo (photograph last.fm)

You can follow very closely the progress of Bonnie Tyler here at Wales Douze Points and enjoy the music of Bonnie as well as all the other participants at W12P live! on Oystermouth Radio. 2013 was promising to be a bit of a middle of the road contest this year but now with the introduction of Bonnie as well as Cascada and a few other exciting acts Malmo may well bring a few more surprises.
There are still more contestants to be announced and Bonnie will have a lot to do to win the competition against the eagerly awaited selections from Italy, Azerbaijan, Sweden and Israel.

The Eurovision enthusiast is going to love W12P live! but those who really love their music and would like to get an in depth taste of music from Wales and the type of music that Bonnie herself has been influenced by, influenced herself and been part of then you may wish to tune in to Mike Kennedy's Welsh Connections Show.
