The song is titled Dizzy and is written by Olly himself with Danny L. Harle.
The song was released on March 1.
An extended  version was added / released on March 15. (see comments)
The acoustic version was released on April 26.
The Performance version, released on May 7 is the one used in the Eurovision performance (hence...). It was released just after the first semi on May 7.

Remixes and their makers:
A remix by German DJ duo LIZOT (Max Kleinschmidt & Patrick Art) was released on March 29.
A remix by Italian DJ/Producer Giorgio Prezioso was released on April 5.
The MONSS remix was released on April 19. MONNS is Slovakian DJ Simon Svorad.

Olly keeps on giving: May 10 sees the release of the D.O.D. remix. D.O.D. is U.,K. DJ Daniel O'Donnell, not to be confused with the Irish singer.

7": Polydor 60246513175-8
cds: Polydor 60246513173-4

Years & Years & Years
Years & Years released three albums but the last one was really only Olly going further under the Y&Y name. His most recent single A Very Bad Fun Idea was released as by "Olly Alexander (Years & Years)" as is Eurovision entry Dizzy.
The official Malmö album and the physical singles do not mention the (Years & Years) bit.

Years & Years first hit Desire charted in the UK, Ireland, Belgium and the Netherlands but their biggest international hit is King (2015) from the album Communion. That went top 10 in the same countries and also in Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Denmark and Australia.
Other known hits are Shine, Eyes Shut and If You're Over Me.

On a personal note: I have been a big fan of Years & Years ever since their first international hit Desire. So I'm exited.
He is one of two artists this year to have sung with Kylie, but so far the only one who did it with Elton and with Pet Shop Boys. So now you know.

Norway - Gåte - Ulveham

25 - 16 pts / 10 - 43 pts in semi 2
Gåte are the winners of this year's Norwegian Melodi Grand Prix with their song Ulveham (Wolfskin). The band beat jury favorites KEiiNO by winning the televote.
Ulveham, written by Gunhild Sundli, Jon Even Schärer, Magnus Børmark, Sturla Eide with Ronny Graff Janssen, didn't get there without some trouble.

the digital release image hasn't changed
The original version of Ulveham was originally released on a digital EP Vandrar, first available at their Bandcamp.
It can also be found on a compilation 2LP Huldra released on December 5.
An edit for the Melodi Grand Prix was released on January 5 (also first through Bandcamp) but it included a 1000 year old Nordic text Møya i Ulveham (The Maid in Wolf Skin) and an intro based on a recording by Marit Jensen Lillebuen.

After deliberation the song was adapted before the MGP final and the new version was released as a digital track on February 2.
At Spotify the new version replaces the first edit but other sources still have both versions available seperately.

The MGP line-up of Gåte is John Stenersen, Gunhild Sundli, Mats Paulsen, Magnus Børmark and Jon Even Shärer. Gåte loosely translates as riddle or enigma

Huldra
The 2LP Huldra, released on December 5 2023, has highlights of their career (they have been around since 1999) plus two new songs one being the original Ulveham.
(Indie recordings INDIE268LP)
The album is available through several European "indie" stores. While stocks last?
(google Gåte Huldra LP and a lot of shops pop up)

Ulveham the album
A compilation CD and LP including Ulveham will be released on June 16. It's titled Ulveham and will be available on CD and green vinyl LP.
The digital version is already out (May 3).
Here's a shopping link in Norway Update, there is a delay in the physical releases, check Gåte's socials and website.

From Gåte's blurb:
"The album, which also called Ulveham, consist of Gåte's latest songs from their release Vandrar, as well as three carefully chosen live favorites that has (sic) been especially well received by the Gåte audience this last year.
One of these is new and unique live recording of their song "Kjærleik", where they are joined by the amazing folk choir Koret Artemis".
