Both the above two are in my list of Eurovision faves!
I quite often like the UK's entry's, especially Ooh Ahh just a little bit (1996), and Love shine a light (1997). |

I liked Frances Ruffelle 'Lonely Symphony', ours from 1994
I then went on to buy a few more of her releases and her album 'Fragile' |

Completely forgot about "Nocturne" by Secret Garden that was really good, I'll have to dig out my cd.

I'm with John Peel, Bardo - One Step Further. I still play it regularly.
![]() I also loved a few songs from other countries, I think about 1989 I recorded a lot of the songs onto audio cassette, I remember a German entry about music in the hall (musik klink in de velten house) or something, and there was one I think Irish entry which went - Meet me in Paris by the Champ Elysees (spelt correctly courtesy of BBG!). And the winner which was Captured By a Love Storm. |

Carene, Cliffy baby (as he's always been referred to in our house-Mum's a BIG fan!!!) had 2 songs in Eurovision- Congratulations in 1968-which most people know,
and the slightly less well-known "Power to All Our Friends" in- I think-1973! AFAIK, they both came 2nd!!!! Back OT- Favourite Eurovision song- The FANTASTIC "Come What May" (Apres Toi) by Vicky Leandros from about 1972/3 |

I sometimes think I'm the only person in the world who loved Love City Groove by Love City Groove
But Nocturne by Secret Garden is the greatest Eurovision song by far |
