Thread Name: Nearly a good Eurovision winner
Subject: RE: Nearly a good Eurovision winner
You are ashamed to mention it aren't you Wolfgang? You were hoping nobody else would remind you of it. So I shall cheerfully spoil your whole day by reminding everyone that it was the blond waif Nicole with "Ein Bisschen Frieden", which she sang miming to a grotesquely oversized, white guitar at the age of sixteen, I think. And why doesn't Wolfgang want to recall this moment of national achievement? Because it was every bit as bad as he remembers it - that's why. It was very much parodied over here - and deservedly so. God it was tacky. I can't recall a time when Eurovision Song Contest winners were anything but awful, but then I must be a lot younger than Wolfgang!
