Für den Frieden der Welt - Petra Frey

It was 1994, and Austria decided to send an old-fashioned schlager song to the Eurovision Song Contest. Petra Frey, who was born on 27 June 1978, was chosen to do the job, after releasing her debut album 'Bloß Träume im Kopf' the year before. The song didn't do too well: it ended up in 17th place in a field of 25 competitors.

At the time, the vinyl 7" single was becoming very nearly extinct, and so 'Für den Frieden der Welt' was one of only a handful of Eurovision songs that were released on this format.
