Riva Rock Me Eurovision Song Contest 1989 Winner's Reprise End Credits

[rtc]

It was a shock to hear them sing the reprise in English. Everyone sang in their native languages back then.

Clear WINNER !!! UK second, a joke…
Now when literally all are singing in English we can say - yes it is equal “opportunity”, but back then to win singing in native language makes winning even more success!!! LOVE you Emilia, LOVE you RIVA, LOVE my country YUgoslavia!!!

Rock me
Oh... whoa oh oh oh...

It happened once upon a time
The son of the mayor
Invited me to listen to
A great piano player

He sure was trying to impress me
But that was not the way to bless me
He didn't know my feet were made for dancin'
Whoa oh oh oh...

Rock me, baby, c'mon, feel the sound
Rock me, baby, hardly touch the ground
Rock me, baby, 'cause our feet were made to dance
Whoa oh oh oh...

Rock me, baby, c'mon, feel the sound
Rock me, baby, up and down around
Rock me, baby, 'cause our feet were made to dance

It happened once and never again
The son of the mayor
Invited me to listen to
A great piano player

His eyes were lovin' all the glory
But different people, different story
He couldn't see my feet were made for dancin'
Whoa oh oh oh...

Rock me, baby, c'mon, feel the sound
Rock me, baby, hardly touch the ground
Rock me, baby, 'cause our feet were made to dance
Whoa oh oh oh...

Rock me, baby, c'mon, feel the sound
Rock me, baby, up and down around
Rock me, baby, 'cause our feet were made to dance
Whoa oh oh oh...

Rock me, baby, c'mon, feel the sound
(Ooh... rock, babe)
Rock me, baby, hardly touch the ground
(Ooh.. rock, rock, rock)
Rock me, baby, 'cause our feet were made to dance
(Ooh... rock, babe)
(Rock me, baby) Whoa oh oh oh...

Rock me, baby, c'mon, feel the sound
(Ooh... rock, babe)
Rock me, baby, up and down around
(Ooh.. rock, rock, rock)
Rock me, baby, 'cause our feet were made to dance
(Ooh... rock, babe)
(Ooh.. rock, rock, rock)
Our feet were made to dance
(Ooh... rock, babe)
Our feet were made to...
Whoa oh oh oh...
Dance

I'm getting sad watching this. Yugoslavia always brought good songs but never got appropriately appreciated by the other european countries. Mainly because they've been the only slavic country participating and because of prerequisites because of their government. But they really delivered and deserved to win at least once! Glad they did.

Didn't know there was an English version.

A year with a bunch of good songs and performances and, in the end, won one of the worst, as usually.
