Interesting Facts about Eurovision Song Contest
The first song ever performed at the Eurovision Song Contest is De vogels van Holland by Jetty Pearl.
Until 1971 only solo-artists or duos were allowed on the contest. More people were allowed, but only if they were backing-vocals.
Forget about the "wardrobe malfunction" that happened to Janet Jackson at the Superbowl. At the 1985 ESC presenter Lill Lindfors had an 'accident' with her dress that was far worse. She lost it completely and was standing on stage in her underwear for a few very long moments. The EBU was not amused and decided that future shows must follow the dress rehearsal exactly - no surprises!
Every day until May 8 I will be posting a music video of each one of the semi-finalists of the Eurovision Song Contest. On May 9, I will post the last three (my top favorites). Enjoy the videos!
