This song and video clip both make me very, very happy! This is back when the young were truly youthful and full of life. Was this the year Rolf Harris did the UK commentary for Eurovision?
Unfortunately, I haven't got the playback equipment! These are recoveries from lost shows that were made in the 90s. They were made on CV2000, or at least the oldest are. That's why they were (newly) recorded with just a video camera on the TV - it is almost impossible to copy those tapes in any other way.
The shows were returned this way to the archive (which I think should always be done) and by coincidence I found a copy.

This recording must be from 1968 (the year that Eurovision was held at the Royal Albert Hall).
Your vintage TV clips are great by the way! Could you post a video of the playback equipment also?
