I think that full results aren't available anywhere since this contest was organised on old version of forum, but maybe OlympicIRL saved somewhere whole data of this contest, but winner of that contest was ABBA with Waterloo But you can read some details of this event in this post which OlympicIRL posted few messages above Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know the top 8 were: 1. Waterloo 2. Nocturne 3. Nel Blu Dipinto di Blu (Volare). 4. Ne Partez Pas Sans Moi 5. Fairytale 6. Hold Me Now 7. The Voice 8. Euphoria I can’t remember the rest though. There were 25 finalists and a few non-winners were in the final. Modern winners and entries did not do well except Fairytale and also Euphoria which had just won the contest that year.

Awesome results. Great to see many old songs in this list. I miss France Gall though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcro 10,210 Posted August 29, 2022 #2106 Share Posted August 29, 2022 Ireland is on a record winless streak though. When was the last one? 2019 Annual? #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They can't win since I joined (Open 2019). I guess Hungary brings bad luck for the Irish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to mention the fact that the quality of music would be debatable It would be ridiculous but also a lot of fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I miss France Gall though A classic but sadly it didn’t make the final. A lot of my favourite winners from the early days didn’t make the final. “Après Toi” and “Tu Te Reconnaîtras” that won for Luxembourg in 1972 and 1973 are two of my favourite Eurovision songs and neither made the final.
