Malta Summer Hit Song Contest
This former stub needs expanding
Stubs are like acorns. The first seed was planted and someone nurtured it to the point where it is no longer a stub. However, it still needs to be expanded and you can possibly help with that. There are possibly other M3P resources linking to it, but they are not mentioned here. You can help by expanding this page.
