Friday On My Mind 70: L’Amour Est Blue
Posted in 1960s, Friday On My Mind, Music at 10:00 on 1 June 2012
Another Eurovision song.
This was Vicky, representing Luxembourg in 1967.
Vicky: L’Amour Est Blue
In the contest that year Vicky came fourth. Puppet on a String won. However, unlike most non-winners of Eurovision, L’Amour Est Blue, as Love Is Blue, became a world-wide hit – particularly the Paul Mauriat instrumental version below.
Vicky, as Vicky Leandros, became a serial Eurovision contestant – even winning once in the 1970s.
