Eurovision Song Contest 1971
Encyclopedia
The Eurovision Song Contest 1971 was the sixteenth Eurovision Song Contest
and the first held in Dublin, Ireland
. The new voting system that was introduced in this Eurovision did have one big problem: some juries gave fewer points out than others. Whether this was done in some cases to increase their respective countries' chances of winning is impossible to say, but the shortcomings of the system were nevertheless plain.
Groups of up to six people were allowed to perform for the first time, with the rule in previous contests of performing either solo or as a duet abolished.
This was RTÉ
's first outside broadcast in colour.
For the first time, each participating broadcaster was required to televise all the songs in "previews
" prior to the live final. Belgium's preview video featured Nicole & Hugo performing the song "Goeiemorgen, morgen
", but Nicole was struck with a sudden illness days before the contest final, with Jacques Raymond & Lily Castel
stepping in at very short notice to perform the entry in their place. Reports suggested that Castel hadn't even had enough time to buy a suitable dress for the show.
The BBC
were worried about the possible audience reaction to the British song due to the hostilities
raging in Northern Ireland
. They specifically selected a singer from Northern Ireland, Clodagh Rodgers
who was popular in both the UK and Ireland to ease any ill-feeling from the Dublin audience. She reported receiving death threats from the IRA
for representing the UK.
Monaco's win was their first and only victory. The song was performed by a French singer, living in France, sung in French, conducted by a French native and written by a French team. Séverine
later claimed she never visited Monaco before or after her victory - a claim easily disproved by the preview video submitted by Tele-Monaco featuring the singer on location in the Principality.
