IM not sure if we need the good man to sort out the Eurovision song contest for us this year, iv just listened to a 14min Montage of all the songs and and NORWAY sounds way ahead of the rest, you will be lucky to get 2/1 on our Scandinavian friends.

But this is the eurovision so you never know.Crazy

Si, wr.....so you speaketh in broken Italia,  thats from watching too much of ToniSopranoo, unlucky to meet Abba in '74, who probaly were well 'got' by the music moguls....they saw $$$$ in Abba, no doubt, now theres a song I like Wink

WR the song by a then 14year old girl Gigliola Cinquetti - Non ho l'eta , the words translated in to english mean.

This is my prayer, I have no age for love
I'm not old enough to go out alone with you
And I would not, I would have nothing to say
Why do you know many more things about me,

im an old romantic at heart W.R.Love

I'TS NO WONDER MY GRAND CHILDREN LOOK AT ME AS IF I WAS MAD EH.....Laugh...Jay didn't know it was Abba who beat her ....In all fairness i think they got it right so..I remember the very first one i think Brendan   Boyer represented us , We all thought he would sing Do The  Hucklebuck ..The innocence of it all ...
