Even in the earliest days of EUROVISION, the Song Contest has never been far away from SCANDAL & CONTROVERSY... We travel more than 60 years back to the 1963 edition, where after everything had been running to plan, during the voting segment, things took an unprecedented, game-changing turn, that resulted in one of the most controversial and tense Eurovisions ever!

Thanks for watching! This was a real labour of love and one of my favourite videos to work on this year, I'd hate for it to go unnoticed! If you could leave a like, and share the video everywhere you can, that'd be amazing! ✨️💙

You know, I'd love to see more videos covering Eurovision scandals and controversies - like, for example, Sandra Kim's win in 1986 when in the lyrics of the winning song claim she was 15, but was actually 13 (making her the youngest ever contestant to win).

Fun fact: the funny Monegasque juror who announced Monaco’s votes did it in 1961 and every year from 1963-1970 until Eurovision temporarily had no spokespeople. He announced them with mostly the same energy, however in 1964, he didn’t have the fun energy as he did in 1963. Unfortunately, we have no idea who he was, or what his name was.

Not only eurovision 1963 had its controversy. It was definitely, at least in my opinion, the best year in Eurovisions Black and White Era.

@whyayetv 2 месяца назад

Excellent presentation, Adam. The 63 fiasco is one of the reasons why the EBU now gathers all the points, and a definitive result is known by Martin Osterdahl, before they are announced - hence his “You’re good to go” catchphrase. And with so many countries voting now - sometimes 40-plus - it’s why the interval is so tediously long.

@FernandsLiveShowShow 2 месяца назад

A wonderfully well told story of such a controversial moment hushed away by the sands of time! Really brought the drama of the night to the present day, and very apt given the recent Swiss win and their face-offs with Denmark since 63. Definitely scope for similarly told tales of voting scandals of onward years: 1969's 4-way tie (Spain hasn't won since!); 1988 and Yugoslavia snatching that 1-point victory from the UK to Switzerland (starting the UK's chain of 4 second places in 5 years) - leading to - 1993's clincher especially with Malta's need to come back at the end, to provide one of the most thrilling moments in Eurovision... Great video!

Yes, and I thought that this might be about her, definitely a better song than the Swiss entry. How can anyone think they were robbed? But Denmark is a deserved winner nonetheless. It actually sounds accessible to modern ears. And had the Norwegian guy given the correct points from the start, then there wouldn't have been a controversy about the Danish victory anyway. Still, Monaco would have been a deserved winner as well, and Françoise Hardy is actually the only act in this edition that is still known today. RIP.

Eurovision 1963 is also unique for having the contest spread into 3 different tv studios. 1 for the audience and presenter, 1 for the orchestra and the performers. And the third one for the United Kingdom jury. And not to forget that there are seldom any visible microphones. (Edited because I wrote that the orchestra and singers were in two different studios).

@jamesblair18 2 месяца назад

They used boom mics. They wanted to increase the production values, intimacy with the artists and show off tv centre. There were two studios. One for the singers and orchestra and then the presenter and scoreboard. The staging was so far advanced for the time, dancers, props and moving around the stage.

The idea of making the live performances look like video clips it was so ahead of its time, pure genius; the host had that unique mix of relaxed and professional attitude; the songs were absolutely amazing and Dansevise it's such a quality song that sounds extremely fresh and enjoyable nowadays. The ESC 1963 deserved an act of love like this, thank you.

@williamdfr1715 2 месяца назад

Some people have already mentionned the fact that this contest was unique; the only time the singers were in a completely different place to the audience. So the singers weren't singing on a stage at all, but in a closed studio. And it proved quite the opposite of what you say at the end. After previously being held in TV studios in 1957 and 58, though in concert hall type set ups, this was the one and only time that the studio set up for the singers was used, and it proved that the studio was not the best place at all. Forever after they sang in front of a live audience, firstly in theatres or concert halls, then in the 80s in conference centres, and of course more recently in massive sports arenas and exhibition centres, 1963 ESC actually had some major stars at the time, notably Françoise Hardy, who unfortunately has just died this week. She is the only Eurovision singer to have made the Rolling Stone list of 200 best singers ever. And Nana Mouskouri, the Greek singer with a huge international career, who said she did so poorly because she was unsettled by having to sing into a tv camera on her own in a studio, rather than singing to the public as she was used to doing.

I was lucky enough to meet Katie Boyle several times. She considered the 1963 contest to be a mess, particularly as half of the audience was in one studio with the orchestra and the other half was elsewhere with her and the scoreboard! There were also supposed to be small ‘postcards’ prior to each entry featuring BBC kids TV favourites, Pinky and Perky. No one has any recollection as to why the inserts were dropped.

Absolutely fascinating and didn't know about any of this before, and showed that there is nothing new with voting issues. Looked up the date and broadcast on Saturday 23rd March 1963 and I wonder how many people watched it that night in the UK. It would have looked anachronistic even in 1963 for many music fans wanting something more exciting, and as you showed The Beatles. That night in the City Hall, Newcastle they played a six song set, performing songs that had been released the previously day, Friday 22nd March 1963 on Please Please Me, and showing the future for the rest of that decade and beyond.
