Eurovision Milestones: 1965

The Eurovision Song Contest 1965 was the tenth edition of the annual Eurovision Song Contest.
It was held in Naples, Italy, following the Italian victory at the previous 1964 edition. Luxembourg won, for the second time in the history of the contest, with the song "Poupée de cire, poupée de son", performed by France Gall and composed by Serge Gainsbourg.

Belgium, Finland, Germany, and Spain each scored "null points" for the second time. The 1965 contest marked the debut of Ireland, a country which later went on to dominate the competition.
This was also the first contest with over 16 countries participating with a total of 18 entries. The Swedish entry was also sung in English.

France Gall : "poupée de cire, poupée de son" She died in early 2018. She was a great french singer. RIP Miiss...

[hashar]

Am I the only person crying because France died? 😭😥

The winners and runner-ups really does have an impact in the type of entries being sent the following year. Like Conchita's winning ballad and Common Linnets' acoustic-guitar driven song started a trend this year..just listen to some of the songs now

How sad is it that I couldn't recall most of 2016's songs right after actually watching the show, but instantly recognize the winning song of a contest that took place before my mother was born?

[MrSilesian]

And it was recorded for instance in Hungarian too! Mária Toldy sang it with the title "Viaszbaba" :)

Renata Mauro the RAI presenter was so professional and perfectly fluent in English and French. She was also a singer and actress

[DevilishRein]

She kind of looks like Grace Helbig's long lost french grandmother

[a._wesker]

Luxembourg should return on the competition.

[daanvandenburg]

When is the video of the stage in action comming? I like the stage very much!

[david]

why is it 60 years since Eurovision was first in 1956?

[yuexkyo]

Am I the only one who thought he said Fuckingham Palace?

[gwentheperfectqueen]

Why do so many people think this contest revolved around France Gall and Luxembourg and Poupee De Cire Poupee De Son?
