Such a great moment in Eurovision’s history. I think it’s one of SVT’s best productions if not THE BEST. I can’t believe it’s almost 40 years. And your videos are superb! Please keep doing this ❤
Apart from 1985, the majority of 80’s Eurovision was a bit of a washout, although they all had their very good highlights. Who remember’s 1987 when nearly every single artist wore white and had mullets.
It is so good to have an audience that makes some noise.. maybe a bit tooo much but after the stunning silence of a funeral that was Luxembourg in '84 everything is welcome!
The technical skill of your scoreboards is seriously impressive, well done! I have to ask, though, why make the scoreboards in the language of each participating country even when that wasn't the case with the actual scoreboards?
Oh, and hey, Rolf Løvland was also responsible for writing and playing keyboards for Norway's next win in 1995 as part of Secret Garden with Fionnuala Sherry, who played the violin/fiddle, featuring Gunnhild Tvinnereim on the sparse amount of vocals. He also composed their entries in 1987 (Kate Gulbrandsen - "Mitt liv" (written with Hanne from Bobbysocks!)) & 1994 (Elisabeth Andreassen & Jan Werner Danielsen- "Duett" (performed with Elisabeth from Bobbysocks!)). Secret Garden also did the original version of the classic song "You Raise Me Up" with Dermot Kennedy on vocals, and he later represented Ireland in 2006 at Eurovision with "Every Song Is A Cry For Love" and came 10th.
Just came across this one. Great scoreboard again! Gotta admit, I found it hilarious that the UK gave Germany 1 point, and then Terry is like... "Welp!" XD

What a wonderful job you are doing!! Is wonderful to see these former voting with your scoreboard because everything gets thrilling and exciting despite we all know the final result and makes easier to follow it 😇. Go ahead with this 😜

Thank you! Yes, that's the plan - although the designs get more complicated as the years go on, and well who knows, if the UK lockdown eases I may have less free time so the rate at which the videos are uploaded will slow. At the moment it's one a weekend...that would take me 6 months, am hoping to get slightly more social life in that time :-) Thanks for taking an interest!
@@thereorderboard I am part of the biggest Spanish forum and some of us are meeting every Wednesday and Saturday to watch these 80s ESCs and other frm the 90s and 70s. We watched 1983 and turned to your video when the voting started. Everyone was so amazed and thrilled. Today actually we are going to watch 1981, and the plan was doing the same, so thanks again. And no matter the pace, keep uploading, you will have a loyal audience.
@@AlmostDon Oh wow! That's so lovely to hear - that's made my day. I do genuinely think it helps tell the story so much better and I'm really enjoying doing it. All the best to your forum from here, have fun! x
In fact Elisabeth Andreassen was from Sykkylven at the Northwesterm part of Norway. They moved to Sweden when she was around 7 years old. After Eurovision she moved to back to Norway again.
Had austria been the last to vote, it would’ve made the vote close right down to the last 12, with germany getting zero from austria and norway getting the 12
Yea, she's a bit like a madame watching all her girls perform. It's slightly awkward, but it's worth noting that they clearly wanted her as a 'compere' rather than just a presenter, with the opening number. Really this is the Lill Lindfors show, featuring Eurovision :-)
I wonder when will you make such a cool scoreboard about Eurovision 1979 or 1999 and whether the names of the countries will appear in Hebrew. This will be neat :)
One of the weaker years and I have to say that I liked Lil but she waffles on too long during the voting going through the top 5 after every vote. My points for 85: 1pt Germany 2pt Greece 3pt Portugal 4pt Denmark 5pt Israel 6pt Turkey 7pt Sweden 8pt Norway (a worthy winner in a weak year) 10pt Finland and finally Spain 12 points!
This happened on my birthday, five years before I was born hehe... Vikki Watson, the UK entrant, is now releasing new age-y music under the name Aeone. Definitely worth checking out. Also, is there any way you can upload your fonts folder? Like just compress it all and upload it somewhere? I love all the fonts you use in these videos and they make the videos even better. I ask only because I like the ones you've downloaded already, but I have bookmarked the site you mention in your description. :) I love watching these so much! :) Oh, and Kikki later did a duet with Dr. Alban as a version of the song "Papaya Coconut" lol! Thank you so much (or as Finns say, kiitos paljon!).
Hi unfortunately they've been taken down as Turkey doesn't want you to see their song. I'm unsure as to whether to just mute them and release them back into the wild!
Oh dear, all those years we were told the jurors could not hear the other votes until after they had awarded their points and Colin Berry let the cat out of the bag
Hi - are you watching from Sweden? For some reason SVT are strongly protecting their copyright over Lill Lindfors losing her skirt and wanted me to cut it out for Swedish viewers. I'd like to keep that part visible to the 97% of the channel audience that aren't in Sweden. Sorry!
I am addicted to your scoreboards. This is just an amazing job you've done. Congrats.
Thank you very much!
And we must also give credit to Lill Lindfors. She ran the show that night like a boss!
And to add, she's just sitting there watching all the acts, which is cute.
Not really... boring!
In fact one of the best I'd say!
really glad you kept the Lill Lindfors moment for the genuine "oh look, AHHHHHHHHH" from Terry
20:07 Love the joke from Lil Lindfors here "It doesn't mean what you think it means ;D" lol
i think she was serious - it DOES sounds suspiciously sexual
@@SimsMoyal Yes, but she didn't have to bring it up
Bra vibrations. 😆

this is amazing, one of the best ideas you could have and the most amazing designs within the fandom, congratulations!!
Thank you so much!!
1:02:50 Turkey 12 points! Priceless BRING THE OLD VOTING SYSTEM BACK LET ALL POINTS BE HEARD (THEY DESERVE IT
Sick graphics on the scoreboard, I must say. Even translations of 1-12 points are tops!

I personally think it’s a great idea

Does 1985 have the best ever opening to the Eurovision Song Contest? I’d say so.

Aden Harrison 1992 has just been done so I am assuming that 1993 will be released in, what is now, a week and a half.
GOOD JOB MAN
Can anyone confirm this is the first time a performer has won in his/her actual birthplace (Elisabeth Andreassen was born in Gothenburg)?
In fact Elisabeth Andreassen was from Sykkylven at the Northwesterm part of Norway. They moved to Sweden when she was around 7 years old. After Eurovision she moved to back to Norway again.
2023 scoreboard (12 points) was inspired by this
The best song of the evening was the spanish one! La fiesta termino! A jem
No bad song a the singer was awful bad person
I was watching an interview that Kiki was screaming “I can’t win I’m pregnant 🤰 “!
Hence Lex Lindfors. Thanks Christer Lindarw! 👏👏👏
(Those who know, they know)
42:33 the winner out of the top 5 😵
It was a drama.
This is the final. Ok. All the tv. Commentators. Know the Final marks. And so the winners.
I am listening to the voting part in speed x 2 - they were so slow in 1985! speed x 2 makes much more sense!
Lol drags it out. Huge Pauses
Had austria been the last to vote, it would’ve made the vote close right down to the last 12, with germany getting zero from austria and norway getting the 12
57:20 And Finally mint sweden 12 points
I'm just 6 songs in... IS SHE SITTING ON STAGE THE WHOLE TIME???
Yea, she's a bit like a madame watching all her girls perform. It's slightly awkward, but it's worth noting that they clearly wanted her as a 'compere' rather than just a presenter, with the opening number. Really this is the Lill Lindfors show, featuring Eurovision :-)
@@thereorderboard I saw that she won the poll of favourite presenter of the 80s, so it worked. Cue: 'when you're good to mama' from Chicago.

1999 is online and in Hebrew. Impressive.

Hi unfortunately they've been taken down as Turkey doesn't want you to see their song. I'm unsure as to whether to just mute them and release them back into the wild!
I wonder who that charming Swedish lady is that Wogan refers to as having been a guest on his show the night before.
I can finally answer my own question - it was a journalist called Maria Scherer.
Austria and Germany supposed to help each other by the neighbors rule but Austria will never miss a chance to screw Germany off
the little kid stole the show for denmark's song :D
She destroyed the performance
Why is there no sound during the (winning) song number 13 from Norway?
Line 1 of the description...
Oh dear, all those years we were told the jurors could not hear the other votes until after they had awarded their points and Colin Berry let the cat out of the bag
Can you elaborate?
Thanks.
@@ponyclub3198 Colin said when announcing the douze “we like other juries are more than happy to award Norway 12 points
The jurors can’t hear but the jury spokespersons, like Colin Berry, have to be on the line to know when it is their turn.
14:59 - 😳
How come there’s no sound on Norway’s entry ?!
This is due to copyright restrictions. It was either have the video online or not have any sound on Norway unfortunately.
Greece 12p
Turkish jury gave Winner Norway 0 & Germany 0 too 2 nd place.What??😄😂
Wish You have done with original black scoreboard like the other ones.
Greek singer
Germany robbed. Meanwhile why did the Turkish jury think that snore fest from Belgium worthy of any points at all!
They must have been in that mood! I am not Turkish, but I must say that I find the song a bit robbed.....
rotten year
But magnificent compared to the following year
UK is like - take that for the London bombing 40 years ago - you are welcome ! X-DD
