OGAE Second Chance Contest
◄1988 1990►

The 1989 OGAE Second Chance Contest was the 3rd OGAE Second Chance Contest, organised between members of international Eurovision Song Contest fan club OGAE. Nine countries competed in the contest, with Ireland and the Netherlands withdrawing from the contest and Spain making its debut. Each country submitted one song that failed to represent them in the Eurovision Song Contest 1989.

The contest was held in last year's host city Östersund, in Sweden, after OGAE Sweden won the 1988 contest with "Om igen" by Lena Philipsson. The winner's of the 1989 contest was Denmark's Lecia Jønsson with "Landet Camelot", giving Denmark its first victory in the contest after it came second in the Danish national final Dansk Melodi Grand Prix 1989. Runners-up were Lili & Susie for Sweden while Germany's Andreas Martin came third. Last place went to debuters Spain, who only received 1 point from Finland.[1]
