[TheFrankenstein72]

Nice save.

[JuliusTio]

[1zwitser]

humor!



[helldiver0666]

ummm ok? why the fuck was this recommended to me? ha

[07melton]

love 0:08, great white panties

[PCCphoenix]

On second thought, maybe they did do that on purpose--the bodice was actually another skirt!

[MrEurocat]

@PCCphoenix OF COURSE ITS PLANNED - HOW STUPID ARE U LOT?

[PCCphoenix]

Looks like her big coming out hit a snag...literally.

[fergusil]

this is the best thing ive ever seen! this deserves to go viral!

[Eurovisiongeek]

0:16 Ooh look, Eey!! ;D haha

[soffansoderberg]

haahahahah bästa!

[Medeni994]

Omg hahahahahha

[awkward91]

Have the people thinking this was a genuine mistake actually watched the video to the end?

[37zeus37]

@awkward91

I guess we'll never know Bob

[Vasilouxxx]

@awkward91 You did

[niallisgay]

terry does his best fonzie impression

[Mellomgarde1]

Käraste Lill.... Tänk, efter alla dessa år.... så förs det fortf debatt om detta. Och saken är ju egentligen klar... för som ungdomarna säger nu för tiden... DU ÄGDE!!!

[DerAntiChristREX]

you cowardly swede!

[a2k13]

obvious fake her dress is long at the back

[AmyBeveridge]

@a2k13 No shit :P

[JonLeibow]

A wardrobe malfunction in Europe in 1985 and nobody blinked an eye.

A wardrobe malfunction in the USA in 2004 and it was a national uproar.

[TeknoMaX]

soo, that bitch had it all planned to show her panties??? what a vixen!! it's the '85 equivalent to flash your pussy nowadays...

[alcagr]

@TeknoMaX do you even know who that "bitch" is? pathetic comment

[TeknoMaX]

@alcagr does it matter...? She STILL show ALL the public her panties...

[alcagr]

@TeknoMaX So what? Have you turned on your tv lately? They were years ahead of anyone back then! ;P

[qaziomo91]

touche....

[MrsAnabelaMagic]

The commentator is idiot :DD

[paulvev]

@MrsAnabelaMagic The commentator Terry Wogan was the only thing worth watching on Eurovision. I'm a HUGE fan of Eurovision, but his sarcastic and funny comments REALLY made the show worth watching. Never been the same the last few years since he retired.

[MrsAnabelaMagic]

@paulvev :O was retired? Is WONDERFUL!!!! I have no longer to hold more! :DDD In what year was retired? (sorry for the mistakes :P)

[hichamanzu]

あほばか

[CNVRSKDAJW]

OKAY...That was COOL! :-D

[MrBaddel77]

i like lil so much.she has a great sense of humor.and here in germany she played in an edgar wallace movie in 1968 .unfortunately shes killed in the film.

[gennieann9]

She is also a wonderful singer! Check her on Youtube!

[ostattack]

Great swedish gala humor.

No one dose that anymore

[Schostet]

Ah.. glad to be a swede right now, ey? We may not place good anymore in the ESC but we still do have our humour at least!

[WWEDivaTNAKnockoutV1]

@Schostet What? Swedish Eurovision Songs are GREAT, especially in 2008, that was something Special. Most of the People sadly lost their Good Musictaste, my friend

[Schostet]

@WWEDivaTNAKnockoutV1 I didn't say what I think about our songs we send. I simply stated that other countries don't find our songs as good as we do. Apparently.

[daftpunkadr]

Fail? Win?

[Irrelevant402]

A very James Bond-ish dress!

[TheBluebird12]

ca't do that with today's clothes lol

[valnyra]

¡Brilliant!

[mrnikered]

heyyyyyyyyyyyy

[tmxd81]

very stupid

[hoodstars559]

WHY DOES THIS SEEM LIKE SHE MEANT TO DO THAT?

[matforsbon]

@hoodstars559 Because it was ment to be, she did it on purpose

[Coolheart15]

clever 

[kkgirl300]

staged

[moonmadness1000]

lool

[anonymousent]

Say ...she had some damn nice legs & hips ...Mmmm ...

[toadie48]

WTF just happened? loooooooooooool

[JiGe96]

Haha, back then Eurovision had some humor.. Now its a bit boring...

[baconair]

@JiGe96 Sweden still have humour though ;)

[Iceblooo]

I miss the days of Eurovision being fun. It's too political now since we let the eastern european countries join. They take it too seriously because they know that winning can mean an injection of cash into their economy the following year so they cheat by voting for each other and don't give western europe (the people who actually pay for the competition) a fair chance. Greed spoils everything.

[alphabibo]

haha, i love how he says "nasty moment" really referring to something else and then she just drops her skirt!! hilarious!!

[avrilfan159874]

what the heck was she doin at :10

[Kincajou]

I want this in high-def.

[tzinaki22]

epic!

[superwhamy]

she makes it work

[mini9765]

come prepared!

[NinjaGhostScorpion]

Wardrobe Malfunction that becomes a plan B. What'll they think of, next?

[anandodasgupta]

interesting :D



[Kotori32]

"Very nice. Very nice"

[DNArchitect]

They certainly have, Sir Wogan :D

[Glavicazelja]

The best one ever...

[Sverigeaegr]

"Oh look, eeeeey!"

[EmZe88]

We sweds are funny :P

[LeojPT]

Classic!

[crocodeilos]

that's the best eurovision moment ever! too bad i was too young to masturbate back then!

[Aure217]

Two thumbs fresh.

[A5HL3YH4LL0W51]

What a gorgeous pair of legs.

[b2367]

nice

[mimisthesc]

Very clever Sweden!I just love their sense of humour!

[casinopoker]

The producers had no idea about this, just the cameramen :)

[innsoo70]

it is funny.......

[JanetIsNumberOne]

Lol I Thought She Really Had A Malfunction xD And Was Just Standin There And Not Runnin off The Stage.

Lol..She Fooled Meh ^^

[AndrosForever]

nice legs! oh man, that girl was hot when I was born, wonder how she looks now :P

[eowyne]

She is still a beautiful woman! :)

[Quzinqa1122]

@AndrosForever

I tried to give you a link to a recent picture of her, but it didn't work.

Send me a message if you want to see it.

[johny7even]

awsome :)))). huh, we will never see such good entertainers hosting esc again, now it is all abous Sakis and Dima and all the of that kind...

[FarAwayDistance]

Wow this was cool!!!

[AnitsirkAiram]

The dress was designed by Christer Lindarw, Swedish clothes designer and drag queen.

[HighrockTendales]

@AnitsirkAiram WIKIPEDIA!!!!!!!!!!

[AnitsirkAiram]

@HighrockTendales: Oh no, is it really so? How very clever of you. I guess you're going to sue me for putting a sentence from Wikipedia into a YouTube comment... After all, what a terrible thing to do.

[KevL75]

@AnitsirkAiram Suing over a comment is the kind of shit that only happens in America.

And none of them care about Eurovision because it's European.

And the reason I like it!

[BernardProfitendieu]

@KevL75 you sound completely provincial - was that what you were going for?

[KevL75]

@BernardProfitendieu I sound like a European.

America doesn't care about us so we don't care about them.

God fearing frigid pussies :)

[BernardProfitendieu]

@KevL75 European? you sound more like someone living in a double-wide in Arkansas

[KevL75]

@BernardProfitendieu I don't sleep with my sister and burst into classrooms with a gun and kill schoolchildren.

God bless America and it's right to bear arms.

[quizmaster85]

I'd give that moment my 12 points

[Prechiz]

at first i was like LOL .

then i was like uhm okay there .

[hanselkksc]

@Prechiz

That's because you're an 18 year old Yank.

Stick to Miley.

[glitzdealer1]

It WAS a set up

[deliveryguyrx]

.....fail.

[Beastpower64]

That was so a bluff!!!!

[Dufos1]

Haha lindfors, första man tänker på när man ser henne... Tv4 höll ju på i 1000 år efter det. :O

;D

[LeighHobnob]

"oh look, Eeeeeeeeeeeey!" Good old Tezza!

[vynni0]

those 2 in 1 dresses are lifesavers man!

they've saved me a few emBARRASSing moments lmao

[Nevetsboy2]

At least she has the 2-in-1 dress

[vbeboy]

The VERY best!

[DenmarkEurovision]

So funny >:D

Her reaction was awesome too

[Chandylised]

lol, "eeey"

[valby75]

The best presenter ever in Eurovision, she made the stage feel like her livingroom and we were all her guests. Such class, such presence! and this gag just adds to the overallimpression that she was on top of things...

[freedomado]

This kind of charming things in eurovision seem to disappear. Now it is only "Welcome europe, bonne chance a tous les participants, you can vote and the winner is" and just that!

[zerhoassoluto]

At least this year, hosts were funny (specially Ivan Urgant).

[alfiesgirluk]

@freedomado I so agree with you, they've made it slicker and taken some of the joy out of it

[Fabian81]

@freedomado Everything in Eurovision today is so wrong for me I keep recalling these memories these songs these golden days during the 80s and some of the 90s before a certain transexual came and ruined the whole thing up sidedown to what we know today. It became corny, overthetop, ridiculous, too crowdy and flaggy, too gay-cliched, to shallow and futile and most concerning: non-shamefully political. Where is the music, the real reason behind this? ... Nowhere to be found.

[stegaflaps]

LOL! Good job she has a good body!

A true entertainer.........prepared to put her body on the line!

[ShaddowSwordX]

Those silly Norwegians stopped the transmission in Norway when this happened, they're too funny.

I remember Lill Lindfors being interviewed on the radio the day after saying that she had gotten the idea from a theatre show where she had played a woman who lost her skirt on the dancefloor.

These days there is no deviation allowed from rehersal.

[katoeuro]

"Those silly Norwegians stopped the transmission in Norway when this happened, they're too funny."

Excuse me? I've got this ESC on a vhs recorded from the Norwegian transmission, and it continues as if nothing had happened.

[itroll3fun]

Liar.

[MauriceFlower]

Neeeh! I don't believe you! Reaqlly? Did the Norwegians really stop the transmission because of this??? I am a Swede living in Sweden.

[michaelnintendofan]

where can you get this video?

[MrBlack1968]

Does Terry Wogan say "Nasty bollock" at the start of this?

[GordonFr33man]

nasty moment?

[MrBlack1968]

That seems a bit more likely.

[roxpace]

Great Swedish hostes joke, the most fun is that many believes it was a mistake :)

[MarionWeller]

Thanks for sharing! I remembered that so vividly but haven't seen it anywhere for years.

[PirateOfLoserville]

It's not a wardrobe malfunction, it's the dress ....or was it really. Beloved jazz singer in sweden. TUMMEN UP FÖR LILL!!

[dicksbits]

I remember watching this as a 14yr old boy and nearly pissing my pants - I couldn't believe it! I also loved the way she congratulated the winners (Norway) at the end of voting: "I'm soooo pleased you won because Norway always comes last!"

[Fabian81]

@dicksbits I was only 5 and I remember listening to la det swinge on the radio ... everybody talked about eurovision and i had no clue what that was ... it was the beginning of a loving relationship that came to a divorice in 1999 after dreadful Dana won this shit. Ever since I watched very critically because it lost all its musicallity and gave place to extravaganza and stupidity ...in 40 songs if i find one i like ... i will cross my fingers for it though I know this will never win saddly.

[CptEgon]

nice recover!!

[littlefred811]

That's Funny!

[skrikon]

It's funny that they could keep it a secret! There were only three persons knowing that it would happen: Christer Lindarw (The designer of the dress, Lill herself, and the guy pulling the string!

[jockeberkvall]

well ofcourse it was the crew behind the cameras who knew it as well. what if the picture producer would have zoomed into a closer view! Would be a good joke? it wouldn't i can tell you!

[LePeintreOrageux]

Älskar detta!

[matilibici]

How dumb can you guys be? Those who ask if it was planned. Can't you really tell? Gosh!, how do you find your way home?

[SumnerMurrayRedstone]

They can't. They're really dumb all right. If they suck their thumbs (most of them do) and you ask them what they're sucking, they'll say I DON'T REMEMBER. ;)

[SashaSamara]

Yes it was planned, but everybody was shocked, the day after everybody in sweden talked about her great humour.

[united4evra99]

I don't get it. What's so bad about this?

[SashaSamara]

Nothing is bad, it really funny,as I said, she has humour.

[SumnerMurrayRedstone]

Lill is the consummate entertainer. She knows how to win an audience. In half a minute she had hundreds of millions of viewers at her feet. Typical Lillemor! :)

[summerguy51]

Definately planned. Love how she just stands there so everyone gets a good look at her panties. If it wasn't planned she'd probably be running off stage right away.

[enoiangel]

hey was that planed

[matilibici]

can't you tell if that was planned? she pulls her real dress up underneath... take a wild guess! LOL

[ca280491]

nice anticipation !

[Dragonology04]

That was indeed pretty cool!

[andreworeilly96]

lol

[ZO6]

that was cool

[SinClaudicar]

Horrible

[Millionsofme]

HEJA LILL!

[barbiechic83]

I love it and totally love his reaction look eeeey

[omraj69]

Go Lill, this is the funniest thing that I ever saw live on TV, I remenber it like it was yesterday! Me and my sister (teens at the time) were screaming and jumping all over the livingroom. Yes, I'm Swedish...

[kornhill2009]

This is good stuff. These kind of pranks was band by the Eurovision after this episod. They don't have any kind of humour.

[Hiuspinni]

The women is Finnish.

[TheArkisBest]

Is she?

[AmyLilies]

The woman "dropping" her skirt is not Finnish! :))

She is called Lill Lindfors - and she is a famous Swedish singer.

She competed herself in Eurovision Song Contest many years earlier.

You gotta admire her for her sense of humour! :)))

Apparantly, very few people knew about this little trick...

Today, it wouldn´t be possible to do this, because the reahearsal has to be tha same as the event itself.

[ricoxi]

She is Finnish-Swedish, born in Helsinki, Finland, now living in Stockholm. Her name is Swedish because she was from the Swedish-speaking minority in Finland.

[HighrockTendales]

@ricoxi WIKIPEDIA!!!!!!!!

[Quzinqa1122]

@ricoxi

She's my "fellow country-woman" and I'm dead proud of her!

[nyg86]

Check out the designer of the dress Christer Lindarw singing "La Dolce Vita" at the Swedish preselection 2004, he´s a dragshow artist and a designer.

[jonathan00243]

so so funny

ah ah ah i'm died!!!!!!!

[AndieK91]

I´m proud to be Swedish, haha. =)

[eurofanpt]

That's Eurovision!

[younghoss]

very funny! For a moment, it really looked like a malfunction.

[MTVoodoo]

shes a fab artist altogether, great singer.. great humour, sexy, inspiring... love her to bits :) the skirt fell off because of a thin string attached to the floor.. just she and the dress designer knew about this :)

[razerblade13]

it was ment to happen :P

someone is sitting under stage

[veerleke]

Beautiful :p

[Akira625]

Heh, nice recovery! :)

[0086010]

That's a good one.

[talatsmum]

heehh funny stuff lol :D

[ernestinaarlan]

esta ha sido la mejor presentadora de eurovision de la historia

[Vikingotropical]

Que mujer tan bella y encantadora,que gran artista!!

[bigg3469]

WHAT THE???? That was amazing! A quick change with a outfit within an outfit & she kept her cool without freaking bloody murder! FANTASTIC!!

[Hanszuper]

Ha Ha...Terry wogan sounds like the Fonz!

[Yunathan]

haha, i thought so too!

[MicroCompactSyst3m]

Got fooled there

[Corbon440]

Wow, nice stuff. And predating Janet Jackson by 2 decades.

[neojenfer]

hahahaha!!! bravo!

[dummyspitter]

THAT was SUPPOSED to happen was all an act

[SoulRyuu]

Indeed it was, which is why he said so in the video information, It really is worth reading before making an obvious comment.

[1SveromUBoga]

Man u are stooped

[crossisme]

...and it's a lousy thing to do, pointing out the obvious to someone who just happen to miss an insignificant detail as such, no need for sarcasm...

[woodeli2]

Made by Christer Lindarv ...I think... yep
