Sounds of Liverpool at the BBC
It’s the city that gave birth to the Beatles, inspired Gerry to ride that ferry, and spawned Bunnymen and Atomic Kittens. Now with all eyes – and ears – on Liverpool for the 2023 Eurovision Song Contest, a look into the BBC’s archives for a selection of performances from some of Merseyside’s biggest and best-loved musical stars.
Forget house music - this is scouse music, rich and varied, with some songs that conquered charts across the world and others that struck a special chord here – from The Story of the Blues to You’ll Never Walk Alone, and inevitably, in a city with two massive football teams, Frankie Goes to Hollywood’s Two Tribes.
