  • 73 people have never seen eurovision or don't know that Eurovision is the best music show in the world! This song is very very underrated and the fact it didn't get more than 14 points is because it is extremely repetitive and it was ahead of it's time.

  • @vstefanovsky No, but unlike you, we get the joke.

  • Sorry but this isn't good. It's so bad it's good.

  • Love all telex work! Great music :)

  • @shakenDDp wtf

  • The irony here is if Kraftwerk did this song it would've been an instant classic.

  • They were Eurovision before there was Eurovision

  • Genius...pure genius, music doesn't get better, except for the ding dong song by Gunther

  • The band was founded by Marc Moulin, one of the greatest belgium jazz artist! Check this record and let me know what you think: Placebo Years 1971-1974 (released in 1999).

  • 78 people only know how to send faxes.

  • Telex were kinda like Kraftwerk with a more apparent sense of humor.

  • Indeed it finished 17 over 19 contestants. Finland was the last one and Morocco in 18th place. Maybe it was irreverent for the contest itself and, I agree, avant-garde for that time.
