Eurovision 1976 - Germany

[MrEurocat]

what a combination! - blue shiny, satin suite, hair like a poodle, receding hairline & cock-a-hoop eyes! No wonder the giant pacman in the background has an :D expression! great voice though

[Lluisarnau]

Wow, one of the singers here is John Lawton, from Uriah Heep and Lucifer's Friend, amazing! Great singer!

[jasonptify]

i was expecting much worse but really the song isnt that bad ---

[sushifornico]

Juergen Drews!!!!! Haha wie geil

[69469]

gruselig

[EugenCluster]

Die waren eigentlich in der deutschen Vorausscheidung auch nur 2. hinter Tony Marshall geworden, der aber disqualifiziert wurde.

[joshypower]

Naja, danach hatte sich die Gruppe ja dann auch aufgelöst. Die Les Humphries Singers waren klasse, aber zu diesem Zeitpunkt hatten sie ihren Zenith halt längst überschritten.

[ccandrecc]

[karldalewis]

No, not from what i know just an english version

[ferelithian]

Ist der dritte von linkes Jürgen Drews???

[PrussianLegatee]

Ja ist er.

[betrataewen]

"Der Star" was so much better :(

[jannistgt]

you´re right

[mhkkoeln]

stimmt :-) der tony marshall hätte mit "Der Star" besser abgeschnitten. Ist zumindest meine Meinung .

[refohtiew]

Ja, weil's Nizza Thobi schon 3 Jahre zuvor mal gesungen hatte - und das wäre "Beeinflussung"! Ich habe mal mit der Dame vor einigen Jahren deshalb telefoniert, sie war sehr nett!

[sasje19995]

O_o omg......i like that one from 1979!!!

Dschinghis khan for ever!!!!!!

R.I.P Louis Potgieter the star dancer of dschinghis khan!!!!

and this song is kinda weirdO_o

[breskvar]

how can this possibly compare with the 1979 entry ?

[karldalewis]

Ralph siegel was the composer in both songs

[DeChocoladeLover]

Me to xD

[sasje19995]

the song from 1979 Germany Rocks omg i'm a dschingis khan freak!

[MegaMlz]

[sasje19995]

@MegaMlz i know dummy, read it correctly, i said the song from 1979 -.-

[redbaron863]

The song is not bad, but the performance...

[Macaltosh]

Eurovision with israel??????

[dirkbaeke]

Deutschland; 0 punkte. One of the worst songs for Germany!

[MixJauert]

Rise and fall. That was the end.

[bellapauldegi]

euro at its best -wow.

[Mietzal]

Les Humphries is dead :(

[verkaforever]

I heard this wasn't the original choice for the German entry of 1976- the winner of the national heat was disqualified for some reason.

[maltesevic62]

This is when the Eurovision song contest was EUROPEAN !!!!! ...at it's BEST !!!!

[SundownerDrifting]

Funniest thing about this song: the singer in blue is British vocalist John Lawton, who was at the same time as this performance the lead singer of the band Lucifer's Friend, who were more or less Hamburg's answer to Led Zeppelin! He was later hand-picked by the famous British hard rock band Uriah Heep to replace their original lead singer. With him, they had a huge German hit single, "Free Me". Seeing him sing a Ralph Siegel number is both weird and hilarious.

[silvermoonstini]

I like it!

[94ayd]

A little annoying...

[setheurovision94]

(Adding to the list: Wir Geben'ne Party, Lied fur Einen Freund, etc. etc. (and they've even written some recent entries, though sadly hardly as spectacular). I've nothing to add on the song - hardly spectacular. (But what's Pacman doing there in the backdrop? ;P)
