[hannaina]

Nice title of a cool song :-)

[Joker2011ize]

Elle était belge, ça explique tout....

[axaugusto]

[Wackojacko724]

Back in ´86 I was 8 years and I had the biggest crush on her XD

[hassel1908]

@Wackojacko724

U too? I was 13:)

[funnygirl3605]

deze oude lied is egt super mooi een mooie stem XD

[TheGemo64]

C'est fou, elle a 13 ans mais elle s'éclate sur scène, pas un défaut dans sa voix (je sais que c'est la version studio, mais je parle du live :D) Elle a l'air vraiment d'être dans son élément...

[MegaPellepop]

vive la Belgique :-) Le pays de Sandra Kim,

Plastic Bertand et Kate Ryan :-)

[CARINANOVISAD]

Имао сам тада 12 година и песма је и тада била пун погодак ,а и сада 2011 је предивна

[richardalsem]

In nederland wil gordon weer meedoen.

Belachelijk natuurlijk!

Sandra Kim verdient respect!

[nata23mad]

so good but i think that she was so young to be in Eurovision....

[Natznatzification]

Awesome song, I love it! but I still can't believe that the girl I see here is 13 years old, she looks way older! O:

[pitaud90]

A 13 ans elle gagne l'eurovision 1986 quelle star....Il y en a plus maintenant hélas

[headphone355]

Did Sandra release an English-language version of the Eurovision winner?

[mapple74300]

thumbs up si vous voulez vous suicider en écoutant cette chanson

[GlamMetalGirl1988]

Look like Kati Kovács, a hungarian singer.:D

[milvo0571]

Elle chante trés bien pour une si jeune chanteuse avec beaucoup de présence:une grande fierté pour la Belgique:bravo!

[singingindark12]

this song is too great to be disqualified due to the singer's age.. i am glad the history or the judges didn't change it..

[Rechtskraft8501]

TELEX!

[SimicJana1]

J'aime j'aime la vie.....:))))

[yahraever]

cette chanson est très entrainante.

meme si ca n'a aucune importance,le look est incroyablement laid.

en plus,ca se voit que c du play back!

[landraindaniel543]

c'est a chier quel apprand a chanter

[yahraever]

@landraindaniel543  des gens comme vous,comme on s'en passerait volontiers.

[wad73]

@landraindaniel543 Et vous apprenez à écrire.

[remcoboy1188]

alsof iemand dit boeit :S

[2011nimh]

I wish I still had the ESC 1986 casssette.

[db01031988]

nice song

[MickBirdPF]

dit is echt wel een goed lied, mijn moeder herinnerde zich het nog na al die jaren :D terwijl ze helemaal niet echt song festival gek was ofzo, het liedje is gewoon zo leuk en dat meisje heeft écht een goede stem!

[nuttenprella]

Are there any nudes from her available, when she did become legal?

[lva52]

@nuttenprella Freak

[Jdsa07]

Belgique repressent

[luis26514]

fantastica

[Druttilover]

Its the song/singing that won, not the age :D

[ysmzysmz]

I love this song, last year in february we went to Paris with school and this was our song, old and good, and have a lot of memories ;-)

[StitchPoop]

moet echt een mooi moment geweest zijn toen we wonnen :D

[rogergargantua]

Didnt know that George Michael could play keyboard at 2:33 xD

[gillesowns]

Lmao at the german commentator...with the song "Ich liebe das leben" Typical germany...

[hollandharskamp]

@gillesowns

ORF is Austria, not Germany

[ftucyk]

13 years not 15. Don't trust anyone!

[ftucyk]

Sandra Kim är fin!

[lemonnis]

this is one of the worst winning songs ever..the 1986 eurovision was a very dull one...poor sandra kim, she has to sing this silly song again and again...i do not like it, not at all

[SimicJana1]

j'aime la vie!!!!:D

[trotspice]

Haha trying to get her disqualified in order to win is so lame!

[boboch021]

tres kitch mais tellement bon lol beau talent pour son age bravo

[MrFennmeista]

An Absolute Perfect Performance... will be remembered forever...

[Lene1973a]

@MrFennmeista The song that you hear here is the song recorded in the studio. The real live song you can find on other you tube places.

[klaasklont]

@boraromp a dirty mind is a joy forever!! :P

[Hannodik1991]

ORF

[ofer69dv8]

love that song

[MrStephanou]

superbe chanson , toujours dans nos tetes ,

[Tubenjunge]

Great times when all countries used to sing in their own languages.

French is such a beautiful language.

[ashleysoulful]

@Tubenjunge the most time France never sing in English....btw Jessy Matador from France was the best, he is far better than this poor Lena...and unlike this girl he didn't sings in English.

[naam123lol]

@ashleysoulful If I'm not mistaking she's Belgian and she sang for Belgium.

[ashleysoulful]

@naam123lol I knew that...when I wrote "unlike this girl" it's about Lena Meyer the winner of the last eurovision not about Sandra KIm. I speak about France because it's one of the only country who don't sing in english.

they often sing in their native language.

[naam123lol]

@ashleysoulful ye, German and sang in English.. To bad most sing in English now

[MrEiriku]

@ashleysoulful sandra kims song is in french not english. dumbass

[ashleysoulful]

@MrEiriku oh tank you for this information !!!!!! I'm a Canadian from the province of Québec so my native language is French, I'm obviously aware that she sings in French,,,,

[Ikurun]

I consider this as a guilty pleasure, but it still is my favorite eurovision song ever.

[MrTheYoussef]

lol cartlon dance @ the beginning xD

[monteira77]

i was 9 and in love with her,made my mum buy the single,lol

[razel53]

ca me rnd 17arriere

[puisatier26]

Trop bien cette chanson les annee 80 quel bohneur

[guilloteau]

quel bohneur de revoir et entendre cette belle chanson de sandra kim!

[ianyslem]

Pourquoi un maître d'Orchestre, c'est juste dy synthé..:P

[Skumberg74]

@ianyslem Tu es sur que tout est enregistré an avant....?

Are you sure everything is pre-recorded?

[TheMrME1]

10 colorblind people messed up green and red...

[jaalexis2002]

Belle chanson

[finalfan321]

cratief dansen

[ThePopeye4u]

She was the shit that year.13 and winning, lied about her age offcourse. love it!!!

[nm10040005]

WowWWW!

For how long haven`t i heard this amazing song!!!

Loved to remember!

Great years...

What a great trip to the past!!!!

Thanks!

[RustlingRagazza]

Given the week the performance was held, the worst week in Europe's history, it's so obvious that a song with lalalalala positive feelings had to win. Nothing against her and the song, it was just sneaky to do that. As if it would-ve made things better? O_O

[Mihaela977]

Moi aussi, j'aime cette chanson!!!

[mikagogol]

Super song and video:)!!!

[HousefreundX]

super nummer. französisch ist eine schöne sprache!

[bela071]

Sandra Kim est mon âge ... A cette époque, j'ai également eu 15 ans ... Je m'ennuie! J'ai adoré cette chanson! Toujours au Portugal a été un grand succès .....

[repattelen]

omg i can't stand that outfit ! :D

[wpv001]

Such a beautiful language .... and great song :)

[sasje19995]

i read on wikipedia that she was 13.5 but people from esc thought she was 15 :)

[Jenslikesmusic]

She was 16 and when they figured that out she ha'd already accepted the prize! xD

[linnieverberne2]

Wonderful song.

[01burgas]

great voice......thanks Youtube for those finds like this one

Mo'Sean  "Give you my soul"

[YenEnStep]

good job sandra belgium rules

[wrathyraven]

@YenEnStep ruled... its been a while

[19SamanthaFox66]

Da kriegt der Jo etwas Stress mit dem Dirigieren :-) So geil! Ich liebe es - das Leben und das Lied!

[StephWeph]

I remember this so well! Amazing song!

[megajenron]

bueatifal song

[Adunhakar]

I served her dinner, wine and such while I was working in casino Viage, Brussels for some dinner theatre and I can tell: she's not a nice woman :( very stuck-up (looked up that word, couldn't find a better alternative)

but the song is great nevertheless, thumbs up!

cheers

[CoolHandFabio]

could not forget this song! oh the 80's. puts a smile on my face!

[surfrider1962]

Bravo, Sandra !

[belgiumt]

she sings : j'aime LE vie and not j'aime la vie

[bidelokeFAIL]

@belgiumt no :)

ze zingt jaime la vie

[belgiumt]

@bidelokeFAIL you heard j'aime LE vie.....

[donron35]

You are all wrong, she was 14 when she performed.

[randomguy414]

@donron35

She was born on 15 oktober 1972

and the festival took place on 3 mei 1986

You do the math..

[Andruliuke]

@donron35 No, she was 13 when she performed in the Eurovision (March 3) and in october she became 14.

[MrNordic29]

she was only 13 years old there! :O

[girly111111]

awesome !!!!!! <3

[garnaal51]

She was born 1974/11/15

The contest was in May 1986 Can you count?

[Gunnarsas]

I am not a eurovision fan but I really like this song. Nice song - nice girl and nice voice. Very nice.

[futureboyzi]

!!!!!! CHECK THE SONG THAT REPRESENTS LITHUANIA AT THIS YEAR EUROVISION SONG CONTEST 2010, IT REALLY THE BEST AND CALLED

East European Funk by Inculto ...!!!!!

[poeseloetje]

LOL she was so cute, she lied about her age to enter the contest and she did great!

[thepepijnsmits]

Haha

we used to listen to this in French class haha :D

[sebastien59138]

mdrrrr excellent elle s'y crois a font!!!

[Borat911]

J'aime la vie !!!

[Tom3030]

No idea if she was 13, but the commentator says 15. or maybe she was lying because she had to be 15 or something to paticipate I dunno.

[rjhglover]

She was 13 at the time although in the song she sang "Moi, j'ai quinze ans" (Me I am 15 years old). There was no age restriction rule until 1990.

[kreabis]

shes awesome at singing!

[LauraEntia]

WTF! She's 13 years old, when she won the ESC... Everybody thought she was`15..

[teemuruskeepaa]

1986 aah

[sebo532]

eskiden ne dinlerdik sandırayı plakları vardı

[TheDutchways]

Vive la vida!

[THxMISSISZOTEKExTH]

[Fabbehabbe]

[roderhautesavoie]

She's just singing she loves life!

There's nothing else to understand about the song!

[kreabis]

@Fabbehabbe shes talking in french, saying that she loves life

[bloodyfool1000]

[1405mreduard]

bravo bravo....sandra kim.....we love kiss from holland

[rubinefrim]

Fantastic,perfect,and the best.

sandra kim is great.

[yannicksurques62850]

Sandra --> t'as mérité des 12 points.

J'adore ta chanson

[jaapschaap20]

This is certainly, however, live. Eurosongfestival are always live. Nowadays they do not sing all live on couple

[fredontube]

playback, not live

[GreeceCyprus12points]

love it

[ryglegrykkmykk2]

she was only 13 years old

[McGwinn]

@ryglegrykkmykk2: nope, she was 15 back then, as you can hear in the german commentary

[Sedma9]

@McGwinn

from wikipedia....

Aged 13, Kim was the youngest ever Eurovision winner. Current rules require Eurovision Song Contest participants to be at least 16, so unless the rule is changed Kim's record will never be broken. In the lyrics of her song, Kim claimed to be 15 years of age, but after the contest, it was revealed that she was actually 13. Switzerland, who finished second, appealed for her to be disqualified, but this was to no avail.

[ShamBilbao]

@Sedma9 I think, the swiss entry in this year was better than belgium. There are so many bad entries of switzerland, and in 1986 switzerland had an amazing singer with daniela simmons and an amazing song with " Pas pour moi ". Deserved to win.

[GerryVdV]

@ShamBilbao Belgium deserved so many times to win/ nanana... What a lame reaction of you...

[ShamBilbao]

@GerryVdV It's my personal opinion about the songs. It's not relevant how many times a country won or not, just the music is important for me! And i think Daniella Simmons was better than Sandra Kim. :)

[ppdan]

@ShamBilbao The reason why she won was also because of the content of the song. Back then the meaning of the song was also of some importance, the best topic would be "world peace" and that's also the main reason why germany won in 1982 ;)

[roderhautesavoie]

I think its the last time a French language song won the ESC...

Now, everybody sings in English at every single ESC... except France lol !

[Eurosonggek2009]

Switzerland has also won it in 1989 with a French song:)

[roderhautesavoie]

We're both making a mistake lol !

Okay, Switzerland also won it in 1988 with "Ne partez pas sans moi" or something lol !

[rjhglover]

The last winner to be sung in French was "Ne Partez Pas Sans Moi" for Switzerland in 1988. Overall there have been 12 winning French language songs.

[ronbon23]

celin dion won it in 1988 with franch song

[moonziehappy]

wat een apepakkie

[patat9]

Ajouuuuu tout bien fieu!Pas sacrain du tout

[manondeklerk]

omg

i love this song so much

and im 17 lmao

[SuperClaire1981]

Ik dat nog herinner dat Sandra Kim won!. Zij was natuurlijk overal op televisie.

[aariciamimia]

merci sandra.

[eledu1405]

great song.

amazing!

[elidepelie]

Shes fierce. The body shes wearing is amazing.

[JUSTIEN1234]

Kvint et wel iets hebben ...

[swili]

playback

[eledu1405]

is not playback.... is the original song put on the video...

search the performer of eurovision and you'll see that is not playback

[lillyheid]

dit lied is echt qt :) Ik zing het vaak... niet dat ik kan zingen ofzo xD

[uriahsheep]

outstanding performance but I still think finland should have won....just listen the finnish song, I know what I'm talking about. It seems that the musical taste and language racism of the rest of the world are lifting their ugly heads.

[filmidioten]

The guy who edited this video seems a little bit obsessed with his own website.

[baberconnew]

I remember seeing this back in 1986, this kid will be same as me now!

[Tamaraaa14]

als zij daar 15 was ben ik de paus -___-

[Eurosonggek2009]

ze was 13xD

[Superelve]

Amen

[dinastein44]

Ohmygod... these atrocious shoulder pads... to think we all wore them in the 80s!! It makes me blush. Cute song though.

[Heiden92]

ze was 13, terwijl je 15 moest zijn om mee te mogen doen XD

[goroen123]

She was so good! and she was only thirteen(13) year old! :O :D

[BillisMyLittleAngel]

eigenlijk was ze 15

[xWetSand]

Nee, ze was eigenlijk 13 maar ze zei toen dat ze 15 was.

[joy42008]

She'll be about 36 now then?

[The14thDoctor]

An AWESOME voice, especially for someone her age and UNBELIEVABLE confidence....are you sure that she was only 13?

Wonder what she looks like and what she's doing now?

[Borat911]

Today she's fat ... and uuh ... fat .

[kareldevogeleer]

She still sings. Take a look at my clips. Strong voice !

[kleinkeske]

@The14thDoctor She still sings, and she still has her phenomenal voice..

[sihaso]

@The14thDoctor

She was 15 at the time.

[MrRioJohn]

@sihaso She was 13 at the time.

[matthoenn]

@sihaso No she was 13.

[balisto30]

@The14thDoctor

I'm not sure she was 13 because in the song she says she's 15

[matthoenn]

@balisto30 She was 13. The song says shes 15, but she was actually 13. Wikipedia her name.

[dusandss]

@balisto30 She was 13 and half...She lied about her age,because she told them that she was 15,because of discvalification...When it was disscovered,Switzeland wanted to repeat contest but it didn't happen :D
