This sounds like a theme from a made James Bond movie, which was never made, but which I would love to see :-)

... hats off ... she's singing so easily over this 5/4 rhythm... although the song would've suit her better in a slightly higher range...
-
A fun fact was that she actually was the first female singer to wear trousers on the Eurovision Song Contest in the same year the first male singer (Kenneth McKellan) wore a skirt (being a Scott)

@Yulufa she did not, she came in third place getting 15 points behind sweden who got three times the top mark of 5 points from Norway, Denmark and Finland plus one other and behind the winner from Austria who got 33 points (I am not sure), but her high placing was liked by more europeans than the swedish one because she got her points from a diversity of many countries.

@Yulufa She got 3rd out of 18 with a total of 15 points but that was the best place for Norway until 1985 when they won with La Det Swinger and the following year, this woman hosted the ESC in Bergen, Norway. :-)

That's another delightful discovery from 1966 that I make. A really moving, melancholic guitar melody.
