I just love that the fact that were other 3 winners in that year it is totally omitted :)

Personally, I loved "Boom Bang-a-Bang"! The first time I saw the color vid, I was blown away by the simple silliness of the song, and the "ole'" at the end. After months and months and months of hearing it for the first time, it still runs through my head while I'm thinking about other things. Of course, my favorite is "To Sir With Love", but "BBaB" is right up there. I guess you did this song for foolish romantics like me, LuLu. Thank you!

An excellent performance from the lovely Lulu and a well deserved win, even though she had to share with 3 others. Lulu is seventy now and she still looks as lovely now as she did back then

Even Bjorn from ABBA has said in interviews that if they were British or American they would never have had to resort to Eurovision but at that time it was one of the few ways to get noticed outside Sweden.

The fact is before the Eurovision no one in Europe ever heard of Lulu..she might being famous in Britain, but her music didn't cross the channel. Back in the 60s

@pblackburn134 роки тому
Have seen Lulu in concert a few times & while she puts on a great show & keeps up to date, people want to hear the oldies. Yes she does Shout but has to do a 'reggae' version, she also performs To Sir With Love & The Man Who Sold The World & that's about it for the hits.

It is somehow ironic that both artists which won ESC for UK for the first times (Lulu and Sandie Shaw) could barely disguise how much they hated performing their winning songs. Thankfully, 'Brotherhood of Man', 'Bucks Fizz' and 'Katrina and the Waves' have been more kind in their affection for the songs which claimed their victories.

Brian Epstein wanted Cilla to do Eurovision in 1968. She could have won with Paul McCartney's "Step Inside Love" or perhaps "Surround Yourself With Sorrow" might have been a better Eurovision song for the late sixties.

I also believe that Cilla thought that the chances of another British female pop star winning the contest the year after Sandie Shaw won were unlikely - she didn't want to lose!

Why do these singers become embarrassed with the music that helped to turn them into so called stars. They begin to look faintly ridiculous when constantly they try to keep up with modern musical trends while getting much older themselves.

The song is simple and passing; but the orchestral arrangement is simply fantastic - how it was possible to create an almost symphonic work from the usual 3/4.. And Lulu's personal charm is also very relevant. At Eurovision, it looked somehow childish, but in subsequent performances, her voice with a slight hoarseness in this song switches attention to the performer, and not to the processing of the song. I've heard many covers of this piece - no one has ever played it correctly (in this case, it's not about the vocals, but about the arrangement). Opinion is personal.
