Italy 1974 - Gigliola Cinquetti - Si

[Fluke]

Wow, what an amazing song! So tense and atmospheric, it's pure dramatic pop perfection! No doubt this would have won, and be regarded as an all-time ESC classic, were it not for ABBA winning that fateful year It got 2nd place.... and relegated to obscurity. What do you think?

Even the English version is great as well:

 

[Matt]

I personally prefer her 1964 effort but this one isn't bad either.

 

[Fluke]

Wow, didn't realize she actually won in 1964. Never heard it before, don't like it as much as "Si" though.

 

[Coliop (JBC)]

Well, this was one of my favorite song back in 2019.
