ESC 1978 Greece Tania Tsanaklidou Charlie Chaplin

[theRadiobuzzer]

Here he comes round the corner with a matching small black hat, our childhood anxiety, will the police officer get him? Red carnation on the lapel, cane, tuxedo and woe, a carton empty of cigarettes, and now rain is falling from the sky. Charlie Chaplin come to our dream so that we can have a laugh, Charlie Chaplin tonight whatever we manage to see, Charlie Chaplin the dream silent like your films, Charlie Chaplin let us live your stories again, Charlie Chaplin, Charlie Chaplin

always a 100 years behind...thats greece. ...this was probably unbearable to watch in 1978...just as it is today in 2010! BLAXXxx!

@Manolara84 Charlie chaplin died in 1977, a year before this contest was held.

Michael Jackson regained his popularity when he died. Probably the same case for this.

And a bit of trivia on the song:

The music was composed by Sakis Tsilikis and the lyrics were written by Yiannis Xanthoulis, who later became one of Greece's most important and best-selling novelists. At the time, Tsilikis and Xanthoulis were known for their collaboration on children plays and shows for the Greek TV.
