The only time that I have ever seen the Eurovision Song Contest, was in 1961. The winner was Jean-Claude Pascal, singing "Nous les amoureux." The UK came second with "Are You Sure," sung by The Allisons.
The reason that I saw it was because I was in hospital recovering from a traffic collision. Back then, hospitals didn't have televisions, this one had been brought in specially for the contest. (They need not have bothered.)
I still think that we have a song winner in our midst. Dana won in 1970 with "All Kinds of Everything." Dana started a thread recently, titled: "All Kinds of Everything."
