![Eurovision Song Contest 1963 [English commentary]](/img/n.gif)
What has shocked me most are the young ones who died too early. Truly shocking.
What shocked me the most was Günther Hoffman; not even a year later and he felt THAT hopeless. Tragic!!
A lot of them seem to die well before the average life expectancy in Europe, even the ones dying in their fifties and sixties are young these days. Taking the figures Western Europe it is currently 79 for. men and 84 for women. Moldova has the lowest life expectancy in Europe but even there it is 67 years for men and 76 for women. I wonder why so many seem to die much younger than that
Wow!!!!! Absolutely amazed by some of the ages that these bright Eurovision stars sadly passed. Shocked and has really made me think!!!! Beautiful memories.
@@starspangledhikersame here, I am shocked by these young deaths, but his was the one that shocked me the most, because it was less than one year after participating, and I'd be curious to know, why. His last name ironically translates into hope man, btw. I know, why Macedonia 3005 and 2011, Armenia 2007 and Latvia 2005 died, and of course the frontman on AWS, but I don't know anything about those early deaths of earlier performers.
@@molybdomancer195 Yes thrue the italians are died in their 80 because the Italy expectation is 86. In the USA are 76 and in Somalia and Nigeria is 50 years.
That so many of these artists died so young is tragic. In the few minutes they appeared in ESC they gave their all, did their countries proud and gave pleasure to tv viewers around Europe and beyond. This video shows that they’re not forgotten. May they all rest in peace.❤
You always make super videos !
Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. Why so many of them died young.
@@htgar8201 I think you're taking things a little out of context. From 66 years of Eurovision Song Contest featuring approximately 20 contestants each year and from various countries across Europe makes a total of at least 1,320 contestants in all (If each country put up a solo act). If you were to compare that with 20 people from each country who may have passed away in the past 66 years, I am sure you would get a similar demographic. I didn't count the number of people featured here or take account of the various age groups. Maybe next time I watch it, I will make a note of those ages.
I have just looked up Margary Gilles and I find she passed as a result of HIV in 1996
Her twin sister suffered from depression but whether that contributed to her passing is not made clear.
Rest in peace to all legends who ever participated in Eurovision, you all made history 🖤
Contestants who died after the video
• Peter Horton (19.9.1941 - 22.9.2023) AUSTRIA 1967
• Lars Berghagen (13.5.1945 - 19.10.2023) SWEDEN 1975
• Sara Tavares (1.2.1978 - 19.11.2023) PORTUGAL 1994
Nice idea, and all the living people?
@@gaswirt According to @jezinlv6516 they'll make history when they die.......
Світла пам'ять!
Peter Horton (19 September 1941 - 22 September 2023) AUSTRIA 1967
One third of Milk and Honey, winners in 1979, died on New Year's Eve.

Talk about prophetic lyrics...
Tose was great that year!

Eurovision should do a segment each year honoring those who passed away throughout the year.
True and that would be like the Oscars with the in loving memory of towards actors, directors, screenwriters, etc.
I do agree with you. That should be an outstanding tribute to all of them: singers, conductors, authors, composers, hosts.
@@Botafogoplayground maybe just keep it to artists. We already heard how they’re cutting the show time in Malmo
@@joseuribe9273 Well, I meant those who passed away since ESC 2023
No, they shouldn't. It's a celebration. Bringing up dead people would seriously bring the mood down.
So many deaths, but here is an interesting fact about the living contestants: Today the oldest living participant celebrates her 96th birthday: Mathé Altéry (France 1956) 🥳
So she is already the 5th oldest participant ever after Margot Hielscher (Germany 1957+1958) who became 97, Pearl Carr & Teddy Johnson (UK 1959) who both lived to be 98 years old and Emil Ramsauer (Switzerland 2013) who performed at 95 and died at 103 years old.
Wow! Glad to see there's still one from the very first Contest still alive!
@@JonnyTainmentthere are 3 artists still alive from the first contest
Toto Cutugno has a great song Insieme which means Together is just one of my favourites and is on my play list. Glad he had a long life RIP Toto and the rest of the Eurovision winners 😢
Strongly agree
RIP Olivia Newton John You will be missed
Hopelessly devoted
@@cailieisidro5758 Yea... I bet she's in heaven right now singing that song right now
Australia’s princess ❤
She lead an incredible life.....Eurovison being just one small achievement!
@@garrywallace1007absolutely, I'm on your nice comment, you couldn't say it better.
It's so sad to see how young most of these artists passed away.
RIP Toto cutugno, your a legend
Wow, i had no idea that so many participants died so young. Especially striking was the passing of Günther Hoffmann, who died less than a year after he performed. RIP to him and all the other participants who have passed
Sadly, it was self-inflicted.
Es gab übrigens mehrere ESC Teilnehmer, die auf dieser Weise wie Günther Hoffmann verstarben. Leider. 😞
I often listen to "Rücksicht". Hoffmann & Hoffmann were the German Simon & Garfunkel.
@@djandy2002wie starb er eigentlich?
It’s really depressing seeing how young some of the artists were. Rest in peace to all.
RIP To Them All 🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️

Wow, what an age difference between some of the deaths, ranging all the way from 26 to 103 years old at the time of death! Thank you for making this, it must've taken a long time to gather all the informations, but it's very much appreciated. May all these legends rest in peace 🕊️❤️
No way!
The youngest one still makes my tears.
Who was the youngest one?

Rest In Peace, legend
So young 💔
RIP Olivia Newton John 1948-2022 fly high Angel 😢🕊️
Lucas, this is a towering work of passion, a much deserved memorial.
Never miss him desaster I was under eurovision. Presentation 1991
Only 4 minutes in and it's incredibly sad how many of these artists died super young. Hardly any reached their 70s 😭
It also happens in 2023......Cancer....heart attacks and car accidents---
Tose,Valters, Vlatko and Ors are so sad because they were so young and we’re all recent artists 😢 Ors especially, being a fan since 2016 and having Hungary as a favorite in 2018.
RIP ÖRS 🎂🐜🕊👣🇭🇺
4.9.91-5.2.21
So many of these people died shockingly young, what a tragedy!
RIP all of these amazing artists and beautiful people!
Hvala na izuzetnom trudu i podsećanju na neka ranija vremena i ljude.
May these beautiful singers rest in peace. 🕊
The most shocking thing in that video, it's the age of some singers.
Yes I thought the same thing, ifor a while it seemed like performing at ESC shortened your life span.
I actually looked up some of them. A lot of suicide, in the 80s and 90s quite a few people with AIDS...
@@Momo-rv6enand a schizophrenic , who committed suicide
Yes, it's very sad all these young ages. It's not a positive image of The Contest is it? ie take part and die young! Nowadays, it's take part and get really low points for most artists, becos of the distribution of points.
@@nocturne7371 Well, there it was accidents, su1c1d3, illness, heart attacks...😢😢😢
Rest in Peace to all of these legends who made history that competed in a legendary contest to bring people together
I remember how shocked I was back then reading that France Gall, Valters Fridenbergs and Ors passed away. France Gall is one of my favorite winners ever, and Valters and Ors not only brought great songs, but unfortunately died really young. May all of the artists rest in peace.
Ors breaks your heart - Vislat Nasr was about his grief over the early death of his father and then he died tragically young too probably because like many cancer victims the pandemic meant he didn't get the care he needed.
Although representing Luxembourg during its victory in 1965, France Gall was a French artist particularly adored in France. His death affected the entire country.
Curiosity, in addition to her own songs (notably those written by her husband Michel Berger), France Gall inspired 2 famous songs: "Souffrir par toi n'est pas souffrir" by Julien Clerc and especially "Comme d'Habitude" by Claude François adapted in English by Paul Anka and sung by Frank Sinatra under the title "My Way".
We are missing the ones that withdrew (Dana and Enzo Gusman)
The ages kept breaking my heart, RIP
If I made any kind of mistake or even forgot someone important, please don't hesitate to let me know. Keep in mind, this video only lists artists and band members, not dancers, backing singers, or songwriters. Please enjoy! And huge thanks to Lars Elsner (MrElsner83) who provided most of the information that made this video possible. 🙂

Peter Horton (Austria 1967)
Lars Berghagen (Sweden 1975)
Luis Carlos Gil (Spain 1980)
Sara Tavares (Portugal 1994)
Shmulik Bilu (Israel 1979)

@@danuostret1900 Yup, he's in the video. 😉
Franca Raimondi (IT-1 1956) actually passed away on April 22, 1990, as her commemorative Facebook account posted a photo of her tombstone.
Hey Lucas, I think it's incredibly thoughtful of you to make this video. Respect
Mony Marc (BE-2 1956) or her full name “Simone Marcotty” appeared on telephone books from Liege, her home town in 1995, 1997, and 2005. However, her name doesn’t appear on the 2015 books, meaning she could’ve died before then.
WOW! So many of them they died so young!
May all singers Rest In Peace!? ❤️🕊
I didn't expect there were so many singers who passed away!
It has been running for 67 years! It would be unbelievable if hardly anyone had died. I'm slightly surprised it's not more, if anything.
Brother hood of man are still alive
All winners in the 1970s are still with us thankfully.
Rest In Peace to every singer who passed away. They will all live in our hearts. They are all singing in heaven.🖤🕊

1958 is the only year where all of the participants and conductors are gone. The only known person remaining from the contest is the Italian commentator, Bianca Maria Piccinino, aged 99.
Who's still left in 1956 and 1957?
@@landon306 For 1956, we still have Mathé Altéry (🇫🇷1), Freddy Quinn (🇩🇪2) and Tonina Torrielli (🇮🇹2), the youngest known participant. We don’t know if Mony Marc ( 🇧🇪2) is still with us.
For 1957, Birthe Wilke (🇩🇰) is the only one still alive, as well as the presenter, Anaid Iplicjian.

Amar pelos dois made me tear...
Rest in peace every artist in this video, all of them touched our hearts with their songs.
Same here. Também eu
Thanks for a fantastic homage to so many wonderful performers who spread such great amount of warmth and joy to us all. May they all be remembered forever 🔥🙏🔥
What a beautiful tribute. Thanks to the two of you
Very touching. Shocking that so many succumbed relatively young to cancer.
Thank you very much for this wonderful tribute. They will live forever in our hearts.
I was hoping you'd make this video for a while now , too many legends left us
So sad, but beautifully presented 🙏
Tack så jättemycket för den här video ! Rest in peace and power all those who gave us music always and forever !
I am so sad about those young ones in their 20's & 30's who left way too soon. It is truly sad to see those young faces and to know they are no longer. To them, and all the others, R.I.P. dear friends, and thank you for entertaining us and giving us the gift of music...
What a beautiful, and respectful, video to those we have lost. Some of them are so young. Very sad.
Such an honour, such a lot of work. I am surprised that so many died before they reached the age of 60. May they live for ever in our hearts.
May all their songs last forever.
What an outstanding and complete work! I couldn't help saying "no" each time I saw a singer whose entry I loved and didn't know the performer had passed away. So sad. RIP and Thanks for the joy they brought us with their songs.
i really got sad about some fo their ages. It's unfair that people die too young..
Amazing video and collaboration ❤
It gives me a strange feeling in my stomach seeing these faces, all beautiful and full of life, while knowing they are now only a memory. But what a memory! Unforgettable! Thank you to all of them for bringing us so much joy. And you two for this wonderful homage to all of them. ❤❤
That was a gorgeous tribute ❤❤. @Schlagerlucas all Your hard work You put into Your videos are amazing. I love visiting Your channel. Thank You so much.
Beautiful tribute. Rest in peace to tall, you all remain vital parts of Eurovision history.
I didn’t realise we had lost so many at such a young age…. We have their music - Thank you❤
I can‘t get over the fact that we lost Roger Cicero way too soon. He was a very talented jazz singer and voice actor of prince Naveen in Disney‘s The Princess and the Frog. He also died on my birthday 😢
Just a precious memories...life is really short & temporary ...make the most out of it..😌😔
Rest in peace all those talented Eurovision artists hopefully an update will come next year
A sad, sad video.😭
But... they, surely, sing and play somewhere, in some different and beautiful languages, in an huge, enormous concert.
"Per voi, insieme, (For you, together) unite unite Europe"
Thank you and greetings from Italy!
Thank you for this beautiful tribute. I am sure those who passed away would be proud of the work you have put in to see that they are remembered, bless you.
These people bought joy into Eurovision 0 R.I.P you all came First in others peoples eyes. I was hoping to hear you sing your songs as a final farewell. All are Angels now.
What an amazing tribute ❤ well done! 👏 🎶🕯🪽
a lot are past away so young rip
Sad to see that many participants are gone (some of them at a very young age) but happy to remember them through this touching video. Thanks Schlager!
Great work, great tribute! They will live forever as part of Eurovision History.
BTW, Marc Moulin (Belgium 1980) is actually the one on the left.
Really? Diggiloo Thrush lied to me then.
@@SchlagerLucas Yep ;-) On the right is Dan Lacksman, and Michel Moers (a friend of mine) at the centre, both still alive luckily enough. 😚
@@Christ13I wish he was a friend of mine.
In my opinion, this is truly a labour of love for Eurovision. Done with respect, excellent research, and exquisit care for all the elements featured. Congratulations, my friend.
On a lighter note, I didn't see anybody performing for Andorra (or Azerbaijan, but Andorra is far closer home).
This is an absolutely beautiful tribute video. R.I.P. to all these wonderful musicians. I do wish you had included Sjonni Brink who wrote the song Coming Home for Iceland in 2011 but sadly passed away days before the national final started. He was supposed to sing the song himself but his friends stepped up and formed a band to sing it. but otherwise really great and powerful video ❤
I'm so sad for Tose Proeski...
Scary how some died so young
Thank you to all the acts 💜💙
Thank you for this video. Very touching and respectfully done ❤
thank you to all of those people who made eurovision history, the one that we love and cherish. but also to the ones behind the cameras we tend to forget.
So many of them were so young!
Beautiful work and a lovely tribute
Last now, Humphrey Campbell, Netherlands 1992, aged 66.
Rest in peace
Thanks to all of them. Always alive in our hearts ❤
Toše Proeski was a legend. And rest in peace for everyone who died. 😢❤
Every year, we should remember EVERYONE who we've sadly lost.
This is easily the most moving Eurovision video. You should be proud of your work, Lucas, enabling us to remember and pay our respects to so many fine artistes.
Joseph Cutajar (Malta 1972) passed away weeks ago
Rest in peace, Toto, you absolute king.
Werkelijk geweldig, Lucas! Wat een werk heb je hier aan besteed. Ik geniet van al jouw video's. Wel triest hoe jong sommigen al gestorven zijn.
Wie mij het meeste bijstaat is Lynsey de Paul en Anneke Gronloh. Love from the Netherlands❤.
Anneke was een goede vriendin van een vriend van mij. Ze heeft prachtig gezongen in de kerk toen hij trouwde en als Tina Turner op de bruiloft- geweldige zangeres!
Excellent tribute, and a nice surprise at the end, to actually have the composer, arranger, singer, songwriter and presenter at the end with the actual song in audio/video! RIP all!
Thank you for the beautiful memories! It's scary how many have passed away far before their time. (However, Renato Rascel never competed for Germany, neither in 1960).
He is italian he rappresent Italy esc 1960 with the song Romantica He passed away 2 nd january 1991 🙋♀️🇮🇹
It's an error indeed. The man you're seeing is not renato rascel but wyn hoop
What a meaningful video. That made me think a lot and took me those times actually. Thanks for that ❤🙏🏼 Rest In Peace to those who passed away sleep in the lights
Really nice video, thanks for all the work! I always get goosebumps seeing Emil Ramsauer performing at 95 and knowing he did live more than 8 years longer 😊
Rest in peace 🕊
Note: You forgot Racheli Chaim, from Shiru band, Israel 1993. (14 May 1957 - 18 June 2023)
Wat een prachtige samenstelling van mooie herinneringen. Heel veel dank. Ook de achtergrondmuziek, waaronder de cover van Amar pelos dois uit 2017, was geweldig. Als jullie een nieuwe uitvoering maken, kan de film dan iets langzamer? De teksten gingen soms iets te snel. Maar nogmaals, dank!
R.I.P. legends
For all of them Rest in peace
I have to mention Enzo Gusman, who would've represented Malta, at the 1974 Eurovision contest. He won the national finals with 'Peace To The World' (audio available on UA-cam), but then Malta pulled the plug and sadly Enzo never managed to perform at Eurovision. He wouldve been their representative that year.
Enzo passed away in Canada, on the 18th of December 2021, aged 74.
RIP to all the amazing artists who made Eurovision what it is. Theres going to be a really amazing show in heaven!
He also was supposed to represent Malta in the 1976 contest with sing your song country boy but again Malta withdrew.
There's sure to be a great band, band, band!
Actually Enzo had been plugged out in 1974 and 1976
All artist united in the Land of Music. RIP 🙏
My heart goes out to Toše and also him being the ESC artist who died the youngest makes me so sad
What a remarkable piece of work Lucas. Thank you for all the care and attention that went into making this, which possibly the passing of Toto brought about.
Rip❤
It’s amazing how young most of these people were when they died.
John Hatting from Denmark also represented Denmark in 1986. He was the male half of the duo Trax for several years.
Excelente trabajo, que grandes artistas y que pena que algunos se fueron muy pronto
7:45 OMG that fact hits really hard 😭🕊️
True😭
No way
May they all rest in peace
Touching video, R.I P to the great artistes.
It would have been better if we could've heard them singing they're iconic Eurovision songs. 😢
