  • I'm sorry to hear about Ronnie Hazelhurst.  This is a good song, it deserved better than 8th place- thanks for posting it, tasosk3. Definitely one of Germany's better entries.

  • As I've written in my presentation of this video, Silver Convention were a very popular group at the time, with classic disco hits like "Fly, Robin, Fly" and "Get Up and Boogie". So, I guess this is yet another proof that already famous acts entering Eurovision are by no way guaranteed to win (see also Cliff Richard in '68 and '73, Baccara in '78, or Tatu in '03, to name a few).

  • RIP Ronnie Hazlehurst. The conductor of this piece died on 1 October 2007. He was closely involved in Eurovision on the British side for many years, as well as being the composer of many popular British TV themes.

  • Really? Didn't know he passed away yesterday. Sad news!

  • A really classy act - very much like the 'Three Degrees.' The song isn't terrific , perhaps they needed to put more energy into it, it is too laid back until the last chorus i think.

  • שיר נחמד מאוד

  • Is the morse code supposed to say something? I don't understand morse (and I'm not willing to do so). I just want to know what the morse code in the song means.

  • Adorable!!!!!

  • So good! So up to date. Without a chance against UK and France, and Greece was much fresher, but should have come 4th.

  • Wonderful song and terrific vocal performances - probably too good for Eurovision, which is why they didn't win.

  • Cannot post someone once this in a proper quality? ;-(

  • Pink always gets Mother's vote!
