The Eurovision Song Contest 1972 was the 17th edition of the annual Eurovision Song Contest. It took place in Edinburgh, United Kingdom and was organised by the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) and host broadcaster British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC), who agreed to stage the event after Monaco, who won in 1971, were unable to meet the demands of hosting the event and could not find a suitable venue. The contest was held at the Usher Hall on 25 March 1972 and was hosted by Scottish ballet dancer Moira Shearer.
Eighteen countries took part in the contest, the same countries as the previous year.
The winner was Luxembourg with the song "Après toi", performed by Vicky Leandros, with lyrics by Yves Dessca, and music composed by Mario Panas (which was the writing pseudonym of Vicky's father Leo Leandros). "Après toi" became the winner with the lowest percentage of the total vote, winning with just 8.30% of the points available. Yves Dessca also wrote "Un Banc, Un Arbre, Une Rue" that had won the previous edition, and became the second person to win the contest twice, the first person to win for two different countries and the first person to win two years in a row. Germany finished in third place for the third consecutive year, equalling their highest placement from the previous two editions.

As much as I love Vicky Leandros, my winner is UK. Beg, Steal or Borrow is just the right vibe of 1972, so authentic and beautiful.
And, I really hope Ireland will come with a song in Irish again in the nearest future... It's about a time , isn't it?
Vicky Leandros-apres toi .❤
Very proud of my country this year, Carlos Mendes was so good and still our third best result (1er,6th, 2x7th) 🇵🇹🇵🇹
Still think he could be higher...
Great song from Portugal! My personal winner
Only song that was worth winning (one of my all time favourite songs)

🇮🇪Ireland (great song but this year is strong)

I agree I dont get the Netherlands at all, one of the silliest and dumbest songs of the year, should have been down low with the duets, Norway is definitely more refined in the genre and Finland had passion! Heard once that NL was a big favorite + good draw so maybe that's why
My top: Italy, Germany, U.K., Luxembourg, Portugal.
Love all of Top 3 😊
Mary Roos ❤

Loved this video ❤️
The Milestones 🇦🇹❤️
Although "Apres Toi" is probably one of my favourite songs of all time, I think if Austria had rush released an English language version they'd have had a massive hit! "Beg, Steal or Borrow" was rather good (if slightly cheesy) too!
4:53 the real winner.
Best Eurovision entry from Germany ever in 1972
It was a contest with many duets
Austria 72 is in my all time Top 10 and the UK is another amazing entry! Switzerland is cool too, not fan of the rest of the year tbh
Omg u should do recap in Stockholm 2016!

The only time Ireland didn't sing in English.
UK clearly best but when a pretty girl sings relatively well in French she'll win of course ...
