Eurovision 1971 - Monaco wins

[xabibilbo06]

Another eurovision song contest stolen to Spain, which had the best song of that year and the best and much full of feeling performance.

[maciejoooooooooooooo]

i think these geezers are robos

[Massev6871]

Severine was the obvious winner-I never liked the Spanish song-sorry! :-)

Great to see that reprise posted-rarely seen as RTE deleted their recording of the contest from where the interval act started-very silly move on RTE's part.

tat spanish bitch is hot

[brolyss4]

Watch your mouth punk, she is a very respetable woman, a pure sould made of love, unlike your stupid bitch mother

[rabbitwho]

That's Gay Burne doing the points on the Irish side.. the man that is, not the woman.

It's mad how few countries there were then and how fast the voting went ha ha

[setheurovision94]

It's so wonderful that the entire top-3 get to come on stage and get their recognition. That's the only time (apart from '69, of course) when that has happened if my memory serves me. The top-3 should all get a recognition; gold, silver and bronze, you know.

[94ayd]

Didn't something like that happen in 1959 or 1960?

ein schöner nostalgischer rückblick

Definitely Monaco deserved winning the contest, Séverine performance was impressive.

[juancar988]

I was sepak about the best songs from esc 1971 and its in the voting where it can see that in one contest where the great favourite it was United Kingdoom with "Jack in the box" and Monaco it was one surprise for everibody et le vrai goût de chiotte! cest bien sur qui est le toi...GUGUS!

[WaterNab]

lol just heard the song from spain, reminds me of vivo cantado, as it builds from a slow to a fast tempo... i think su cancion is way better than Nuevo Mundo...

[dodoboy1212]

Juancar go fuck spain

Monaco deserved to win cause their song was great

but severine should have been french so its kinda weird

[WaterNab]

true... but imma see if i like the spanish song, i like su cancion so far from spain... and imagine if this entry and the one from 1965 representing france... france wudda had 7 wins... the writing and singing of those are french not Lux or monaco

[juancar988]

Un banc un arbre une rue its una mierda comparated with en un nuevo mundo from Spain.

[juancar988]

well realy everibody it can to see and listen the contest and its songs...its simple thing.

[joalxicer]

I can't understand how won... ¡¡Viva Karina!!

[juancar988]

Nice video. But for me the winner was Spain. 2 for Germany 3 Italy 4 United Kingdoom and 5 Monaco. It´s posible to listen all the songs and the spanish song it have magic... well after all the seconth its good.

[lfswitzer]

Pas question! Si vous le coryez vraiment c'est surement parce que vous n'avez rien compris du message livré par la chanson de Séverine! Que vous aimez les chansons des autres pays c'est une chose, de là à dire que l'Espagne méritait de gagner...franchement, vous avez un vrai goût de chiotte! Gugus!

[juancar988]

La chanson d´Espagne au concours du la chanson du eurovision 1971 c´est la meilleur avec beaucoup de diference et surb le tableau du voits il est trés claire (pas de televoting) je adore la musique francaise et je crois qui une bonne balade francaise c´est emerveilleux mais non c´est cette du Severine et Luxembourg 1973 avec tu te recoinetras pas aussi pour gaigner. Karina c´est genial et son travail perfect. Salutations.

como es que cada vez que veo un comentario de otro español, SIEMPRE es para decir que España debería haber ganado, que había tongo, o yo que sé. Siempre sois iguales, nunca capaces que roconcer el talento de otros que no sean españoles. Que vergüenza :(

[juancar988]

Pues eso es porque las cosas geniales se entienden sencillamente asi, yo no creo que sea una cuestion de españoles, aqui hay muchos comentarios que se pueden leer despues del tiempo, la cancion de Monaco fue bonita pero la de España genial(es la diferencia) y ademas de eso y con una cantante como es Karina se hizo un trabajo musical de una gran calidad y muy elaborado hasta su final, con un resultado de 2 place yo Monaco es bonita par un 5 place.

[juancar988]

Ademas ese comentario se lleva haciebndo desde el año 1971, porque claro que la gente tiene oidos y sabe escuchar y escoger y comparar y claro en este caso la cosa esta muy clarita.

[jose2002valencia]

What a nice!!!

[3hamlet3]

what a great clip, nice German comments, thanks a lot :)

[KnutO63]

This was my first Eurovision, I was 8, and has watched every final since! Therefore this winner and this song is a song I' ll never forget!

[florenna]

It is true, any of those 3 songs could have won, but still Monaco was the best of all, the most timeless song...

[ilargitxo2]

I don't like monaco's song I preffer spanish song as far.

[europeter64]

This was the best song ever in eurovision jointly with Luxembourg's Apres Toi, the following year! This song never dated.

[Dermotdublin]

Back in 1971, RTÉ had no outdoor broadcast budget to blow. This was RTÉ's first ever live outdoor broadcast in colour

[gary777777]

Is it true that RTE blew it's entire outdoor broadcast budget in hosting this event

[rigolissimo]

Nice catchy tune, still a nice song. The Austrian commentator is right: this song will still sound good in ten years time.

[Dermotdublin]

Excellent. Its not often you see Severine's actual reprise from 1971, and in colour too. Great clip.

[koolmansteven]

Thanks :D
