Diggiloo Diggiley (Eurovision Performance)

[CoolHandFabio]

ABBA won in 1974 with Waterloo and these guys 1984 is what I wanted to say

[CoolHandFabio]

10 years after Abba

[TicoTorres]

@CoolHandFabio actually just three.

[LeeBLeeBLeeb]

Gud vad fåniga dom såg ut då (inget illamed älskar låten!)

[tnt229]

I was going in here just to dislike this song.

[MsEvahu]

This dates me back... *Cause I like it! (Though I'm NOT a fan of this music otherwise)

Ro see them a bit nervous, a bit "HEEEELP!" is locely comparing to todays crave for perfextions. These guys are soooo good! Remember how it was written about how they're been educated in USA (BIF thing then!:))

(And I'm just a liiiittle proud to have forecasted witch one who would stay an artist...:)

Lovely!

[Denta92]

Holy damn! There actually was a time in Eurovision Song Contest when they didn't mime to a prerecorded track?!

[wieslawl59]

@Denta92 You have to sing live at ESC. It has always been this way.

[MsEvahu]

@Denta92 Isn't it wonderful?:))

[db01031988]

simply amazing song

[WhiteLilystar]

Haha this isn't gay, it's just the 80s ;)

[ookkonaaoulusta]

heja sverige!

[Friida182]

haha epic!



[romeoharry2sally2]

dont' know

[thezeeron120]

Does anyone here even know what the word gay means? For all you uneducated morons out there: Gay means HAPPY, not HOMOSEXUAL! Please do not use words you do not know the meaning of!

[MrPauloBe]

@thezeeron120 Ok a very queer song! Is That Ok?



[superstubes]

great gay song....

[romeoharry2sally2]

@superstubes

how about just a great song?

pop at its best

[superstubes]

@romeoharry2sally2

ok.....a great song..

we have the group BLUE this year for the UK entry. is yours good?

[dealerovski82]

If you look up the word "gay" in the dictionary you find a picture of these 3 guys in golden shoes singing.

[Babek79]

@dealerovski82

Change "Gay" to "Christians" :)

Awful lyrics but the tune is catchy.

[MultiMauritz]

Typisk Svenskt.

[meatballsarebrown]

@MultiMauritz

= gay ?

[TheTheoldgit]

No wonder they say that swedish guys are gay!

[MultiMauritz]

@TheTheoldgit 

They are!

[krajsnick]

@TheTheoldgit Yes and you are an adult acting like 15 years old. Go back to britain, germany doesn't like you anymore.

[TheTheoldgit]

@krajsnick Ahhh you must be swedish then Sorry !

[krajsnick]

@TheTheoldgit I thought this was settled? Didn't you made your point clear called me a dick and blocked me? But true that, yes Im Swedish. Stereo, to think they are gay in this video... Open your eyes my friend.

[thomaswinzy]

gårdagens fjortislåt :)

[ellenlob]

Vaddå att rösten skär sig vid 0.18 , haha :)

[TheoneandonlyTF]

@ellenlob

Han är ju så glad :D

[michaeljfreak]

the music in eurovision was better before. after 2000 it just went downhill.

[Linneaa94]

the intro sounds just like an old classic disney song!!

[Frickis]

Much better in english

[AdiRudi]

@Frickis No actually, it was 1984 that they won in.

[stutern]

3 homofile svensker gir deg frysninger? lololo

[MrLarsmeister]

bra!! :DD:D

[MrDannyflip2]

so fucking good _ så jävla bra 

[tigrakos123]

did the man at red fell at just when this video began?

i heard laughs!

[joelherrey]

@tigrakos123 Yes, he (my dad) actually did! We just talked about it! Haha!

[crossen297]

[joelherrey]

@crossen297 True! Me being on of them ;-)

[blondforever100]

[CoolHandFabio]

So 80's but GREAT !!!!!!! could never forget this song

[domsson84]

[theandroidgirl]

[AliceJacksonII]

I get all happy from this song!!!!! :)

[AngelicRobotDevice]

Oh good times, back when Eurovision entries came in all sorts and shapes and anyone could win, even when singing in their own language about golden shoes XD

Love you, Sweden!

[o0ENOK0o]

þessir voru nú algert æði ! Ekkert gay er það ....?

[gtaaa2222]

hahahahahahaha

[Monicaplay123]

omg, I love the frontsinger's hair :D

[Imhornydadcomeinside]

AAAAH!

[bibiJ63]

So sorry..forgot his name..the gorgeous guy in the middle,red blouse?Poor sweet man.. ay ay. I think he was pretty nervous here! When you look at the other versions, his voice is trembling here...Love this video though...But the Swedish version IS better!!! Problem is I'm not Swedish and so my Swedish ain't that good... LOL! Thanks for this video! Greetings from Amsterdam-NL

[MsHunny2009]

think his name was per the one with the red top on i prefered louis ;) ;) the one with the dark blue top on ;)

[TheoneandonlyTF]

@bibiJ63 The guy in the middle is not nervous, he's happy. This is just after they have won ESC:), so when his voice trembled as he was close to tears. Thought it was important to tell you. ^ ^

[bananbaisHORA]

åh ,men han är ju glad!:)

[slickadinpappas]

gråter han i mitten ? hahaha ser ut som det

[skruad]

Visste ni att det är Lotta Engberg som sjunger i kören?

[Coffeabc]

oj vad ung pappa ser ut där :D

[MegaBorgen]

är det din pappa?

[Coffeabc]

han i mitten :P

[tommieforsberg]

Är han inte bög

[tobbelobbe666]

Precis

[ellenlob]

Haha så kul xD Blixtar och dunder,

magiska under plötsligt en dag har det hänt. å vilken tur du är en lycko figur

Asså, vad har hänt Xd

[lbsynne]

Sverige heia! :)) Topp show!

[princessofDanmark]

Hi from Iceland I hope someone here can help me. I have been looking for a few years of Eurovision on cd the years i am serching for are 1956 untill 1985. If someone wants to help me please feel free to contact me. Thank you

[jessu159]

were playing this song sometimes at music-class

[ogepower]

Mamma var tio år när denna låten vann!!

[janmerik]

So?

[AngeloLondra]

Don't wanna offend anybody but I really can't understand why this song won the ESC and the Italian song came 7th...

[GBOY69GAY]

AngeloLondra

Heh heh...This was surely better than Italian song whatever it was 1984, lol.

This is surely one of the best Eurovision songs ever. It´s funny, it´s happy, it´s simply hillarious. Those guys look like 80´s gay porn models with all clichees. I was a little kid, but I still remember like yesterday when I saw this. It was simply amazing!!!!!!! Besides it´s quite "camp" :) One of my early gay feeling experiences, lol :) I love that song and show!!!!!!!!

[muscleboi4use]

@GBOY69GAY Mine too!!! I found myself singing this the other day for no reason whatsoever, 25 years on!!

This is SO MUCH FUN! When I'm walking in my golden shoes!!!

[miguelalvesmantero]

@GBOY69GAY THAT`S EUROSIVION AT IS BEST!!!!

[gottmospahedengubbar]

@GBOY69GAY This might be the reason why you're gay today, hah!

[t9h3j]

woow, tror du fortfarande kan köpa Tröjor?

[Skumberg74]

Haha, some foolin' around. They could'nt focuse totally on the dance on this reprise. Richard missed a dance move at 1:24.

But I don't blame them, they had already won - that's why they dared to sing in English.

[Skumberg74]

Notice how the drummer/percussionist really goes banana on those synth drums :o)

[Stenbrotsgatan]

Oh boy...I remember it like yesterday :)

[aristagirl]

do you think they go clothes shopping together?

[Skumberg74]

Haha! They had a personal stylist who gave them several suggestions on outfits. But they rejected them every time. Finally they went out themselves and got the boots and sprayed them with golden paint from a toy store.

[irishgodfatherchris]

if they had've released an LP in Australia they would've easily gone to number 1

[meshtornProductions]

Clar muht mel zon!

[Domnoidragon]

ja det är dom

[sCrumber]

Dom är bröder va? :)

[soapabuser]

Ja, det är dom.

[Selor12]

Devons guda glädjepiller för fan! :>

[suomiduudi]

GET THIS. IMA FROM FINLAND I HATE SWEDEN (not true) just AN example BUT THERE HAS BEEN SHITTY ARTISTS FROM ALL OWER THE WORLD. SO STOP TELLING CRAP OF URSELWES WE ARE ALL THE SAME RASE USA,KINA,SWEDEN,FINLAND, EVEN GERMAN(well not H1tler.) WE ARE ALL THE SAME. OK. fux that, i dun even undetstud what i said. but ill let it be posted anyways, LOL.

[regordravgis]

first boyband ever..

[onkelmonokkel]

I thought that was The Beatles :P

[thesteveus]

nah, it was Menudo

[Trulyloyale]

typical swedish idiocy & ridiculousness , what else can you expect from them ?

We know them so well

[fellhart]

I take you don't like Sweden/swedes ?

[Stabu]

Svenskar bara tenderar att vara ganska bögiga :P. Den här sången är nog kul (och bögig)... Kanske min största ESC favorit.

[Lollipopan]

Ohh its sounds like someone holds a grudge against Sweden :/, could it be that you were rejected by a beautiful swede?

[eurovision0portugal]

LoL they look just as OUT OF A DETERGENT COMERCIAL but them... they represent the decline into utter sillyness & trash of nowadays ESC

[AmersfoortTristan]

My God. Sweden made a fool out of themselves there- but then it was 1984: this kind of rubbish was popular back then so they were just modern.

Sweden can do much better then this.

[Lillzum93]

I'm glad we won, but I can't understand how we could win. I mean, they suck XD

[tiadaid]

It was the taste of the time...maybe

[anddav507]

Gives me chills!

herreys, snälla återförena er! Jag kommer kolla på alla era konserter!

[FairlyGrrl]

Diggiloo Diggiley alla tror jag är GAY för jag sätter på min lillebror la la la

[mieroth]

Makes me proud of being Swedish. ;D

[FairlyGrrl]

LOL! It makes me ashamed!

[binkif]

Great song, made me fall in love with Sweden...

[FairlyGrrl]

Are you GAY?

[probodie]

Oh I so love this song! I remembered it but didnt think to look on here until tonight! And they are so damn cute!

[licborn]

Min absolutte farvorit. Jeg Elsker Sverige.

Kram fra danmark.

[Makkelisch]

Tack du, kram tillbaks från Sverige själv XD

[FairlyGrrl]

Det viktigaste är att alla vi mor(m)oner börjar kramar varann RIGHT NOW. GAY RULEZ! LOL

[HeseTkuj]

i think its not so easy to switch suddenly to english :D anyway, i still remember this.

[n00bie100lol]

good song!

[johan861]

Real eurovision feeling!

Remove those fucking eaststates from the cometition.

[radiosfan4ever]

ik snap eigenlijk wel dat dit nummer toen gewonnen heeft wat is dit nummer vrolijk en grappig.

[radiosfan4ever]

Dit is nog uit de tijd dat het leuk was om naar het songfestival te kijken.

[Xaelius12]

haha fan va coolt att dom gjorde den på först svenska sen engelska haha xD

[Trulyloyale]

great song from sweden ??!! Of course I don't wanna talk in favour of my country's entry and be nationalistic, but I would instead call the Portugal's entry a great song, even more a wonderful song .

[maxi2l]

Was this done after they had won? i had this distant memory of them doing it in english but i thought i was dreaming. back in '84 i went to the co op in eastwood notts 2 buy it on the next monday and the woman behind the counter told me to fcuk off! scared me for life that did.

[Elinito]

great song by sweden, but they should have performed it in english

[Skumberg74]

it IS in english from the second verse. back then it was not allowed to sing in any language other than that of your own country, but they got away with it here because they had already won. another point is that the lyrics were first written in english,then translated into swedish. the brothers were famous in UK before sweden.

[Ennalitefult]

You do know they are swedish right because that just sounded stupid! I don't think they were famous in UK before Sweden. I feel bad for you...

[Skumberg74]

They got their show&dance training in Los Angeles. The whole family moved there 1981. The father Willy Herrey is not swedish, and he travelled a lot with the boys when they were small. So it is correct that they were unknown in Sweden before the won the ESC contest in 1984. It's not unusual that people move around the world to live, study and travel.

So I don't think you should feel bad! :-)

[TumbleTower]

Yes Skumberg74, the second verse onwards is in English. This is the REPRISE, after Sweden had won. During their performance (first in the line-up), they had to sing entirely in their native language (in this case Swedish), just like all the other countries. However when the winner performed again at the end, evidently that language restriction didn't apply. I remember this reprise being in a mixture of Swedish and English at the end.

[kukamita]

Heh and LOL, big LOL

[larssonhammar]

vad dålig den är på engelska sjung på svenskja förfan !!

[grizen94]

De e väl svenska?

[grizen94]

Förlåt, såg inte förrns nu att det blev engelska sen.. :)

[zakezu]

That's so gay! They make me sick. Everybody in here finland says that swedish plp are gay.

[bullen81]

This looks gay, bu at least they're all married. Look at Finland, an army infamous for homosexual scandals among conscripts and the largest gay icon artist Tom of Finland.

[gokbole]

Then what is your problem with gay people, IDIOT!!!

[Banchoet]

Agree...

[LoveShonenManga94]

Yaay! I love their dance!!

[niklashg1]

diggiloo diggilej digimon

[niklashg1]

love them the song is rely rely rely rely rely god i giwe it 10 out of 5

[chand75]

A great Eurovison winner! Catchy song, glitter, 80s style, Swedish - everything the Eurovison Contest is about :D

[FirCone]

Haha, they are awsome! So cute.XD

[delonariel]

Aww, the translated lyrics sound much cornier than the swedish ones :P

[skatergirlke]

loool okeeej wtf is da voor iets

[radiosfan4ever]

nu kan ik ze verstaan haha

[faezdel]

Herreys: the worst Eurovision winner ever. 1984 was a great edition of the contest: Italy, France, the UK, Portugal, Spain, Ireland. All great songs. I can't believe this cheap piece of bubblegum had won.

[johan861]

Herreys= one of the best winners ever.

Lordi= the worst winner ever!

[faezdel]

Eurovision fans usually agree the Herreys were crap. It's not me, but 95% of the people that follows the contest. They were a cheap number in every way.

[johan861]

Yep, people who are braindead.

[faezdel]

Exactly like you, maybe.

[johan861]

Maybe... Maybe not

[RememberRox]

I dont think u have anything against this song :P i think u have something against Sweden :p as far as i know u have been just as nasty on one "Carola- fångad av en stormvind" video...Saying she was a whore...Being mean because your country have lost all the time?..aaw poor you.

[marielita1989]

I love themm!! mucho muchooo =D

viva sueciaa!

[GAISRobson]

That they did with their hands i amazing :)

[cjhrules]

They started to go downhill when Per stopped being leadsinger...

[DemonaLlama]

They're not working as priests. They're LDS - we don't have paid clergy. They have day jobs and church callings outside work. One of them is a bishop. There is also a resurgence in their popularity - check out their offical site.

[Julies86]

Because you have opened this... you will get kissed on the nearest possible Friday by the love of your life... if you don't break the chain. Tomorrow will be the best day of your life. However, if you don't send this to at least 10 people by the stroke of midnight tonight you will be forever cursed in love. Just copy and paste this.. Good Luck!

[kkkajsu]

Ahh, so sympatic to see a few tears after the victory ensured :)

[antronix]

they are brothers

[WeirdNotWierd]

Hum... If anyone who doesn't speak swedish wounder what they're singing about can I tell u they're singing about golden shoes... xD

[youcouldsaythatagain]

Oh I feel so proud of being swedish when I see this. This is like the first song I ever learned... Who wasn't in love with Per, the lead singer?

[DemonaLlama]

I know Per's son and he's hotter than his old man :>

[DemonaLlama]

Actually I shouldn't say Per's son is hot because he's way younger than me. :> Eek.

[youcouldsaythatagain]

hahaha, why can't you say that? his looks can't help that he's younger than you.. How old is he, btw?

[DemonaLlama]

It's creepy for me to say that. Wish I hadn't! Just realised they don't have an official site so wish I hadn't said that either.

[laitsu]

:sda.S:AdS:DD::SA:Ds:d:D:

[enskipossu]

Kirka oli parempi! :O

[lwsmackie]

Dreadful! And they talk about Gemini and their singing?? Listen to these guys squak & strain themselves through this

[eddiemeduza]

The fun thing is that some people really thought that these guys where going to be bigger than Abba in those days. Nowadays two of 'em are working as priests and the third is a swedish second class celeb who pretty much doesn't do anything else than showing up on telly music shows now and then.

[fliptopla]

The second class celeb actually lives in Southern California and is married to hot shot realtor out here.  Wonder if she's supporting the family?

[DemonaLlama]

They're not working as priests. They're LDS - we don't have paid priests. They have day jobs and have church callings.

[MargusKiistheCritic]

Although I`m not gay I was in love with this guys when I was 11...

[Dandi10]

Sadly none of them is gay...

[Tweetyfreaky]

Non of the guys are gay! Just so you know..lol

[menuria]

So, you're saying that he is actually gay ?!?

[Dandi10]

Hey, as a 12 year old gay, the lead singer was my first love!

[bjerregb]

Oooh, I had such a crush on the youngest one...funny, though, I remember a lot more head shots of him...hmm.... Loved the song, loved the dancing - still do, it's all just so perfectly eighties :)

[Dandi10]

I was simply in love with the lead singer!

[kkkajsu]

Oh yes, this is the performance after the victory.

[Nyandra]

ooo this version is interesting, with his voice cracking! Good to see they're not always perfect.

[enzo1976]

Parece que el de rojo se cae al comienzo, cuando salta hacia el escenario. Esta debe ser la actuación después de ganar: lo digo por el número 1 que hay detrás y porque cantan la segunda parte de la canción en inglés.

It seems that the one in red falls when he jumps into the stage.

This might be the performance after winning because there's a number one behind them and they sing the second part of the song in English.

[AdiRudi]

Yes, it was the performance after they won.

[dorugu]

heh i remember this they played it to death on radio luxenburg the days after they won :)

[Jonny2myren]

Classic and ingenious
