Re: Eurovision song contest

i think the song dana won eurovision with became a hit.

Not many who win eurovision or do well in it go on to be big stars.

Abba and celine dion who won eurovision for switzerland 1988 are 2 i can think of who did well after e.v.

Re: Eurovision song contest

Very rarely is there anything out of Eurovision becomes a hit

Two that come to mind are of course Abba's Waterloo & Bucks Fizz's Making Your Mind Up (I think it was if IRC)

Nicole's A Little Peace was a UK No.1, as was Johnny Logan's What's Another Year.

Re: Eurovision song contest

i can vaguely remember bucks fizz winning it in 81 when i was 4-at least it wasnt politically voted back then-mind you when we last won it in 97 with katrina and the waves i dont think we creamed the rest and it was a close call!
