    The Eurovision Song Contest 1974 was the 19th edition of the annual Eurovision Song Contest. It took place in Brighton, United Kingdom and was organized by the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) and host broadcaster British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC), who agreed to host the event after Luxembourg, having won in both 1972 and 1973, declined to host it for a second successive year on the grounds of expense. The contest was held at the Brighton Dome on 6 April 1974 and was hosted by Katie Boyle for the fourth and final time (having hosted the 1960, 1963 and 1968 editions).
    Seventeen countries took part in the contest, with France being absent and Greece competing for the first time this year.
    The winner was Sweden with the song "Waterloo", performed by ABBA, who would later go on to become one of the best-selling acts in pop music history.

    A really good year it was! Norway, Switzerland, Yugoslavia, Greece, The UK with the ever so lovely Olivia Newton-John (RIP), Italy with the wonderful Gigliola Cinquetti and of course the magnificent ABBA.

      - Justin timberlake
      - Love love peace peace
      - Mans zelmerlow
      - Onuka
      - Jamala
      - The opening ones
      - Salvador sobral
      - Dana international, Ilanit & netta in the opening
      - Switch song
      - Netta
      - Madonna
      - Rock the roof
      - Music binds us
      - Duncan laurence
      - Laura pausini in the opening
      - Mika
      - Maneskin
      And i'm probably forgetting others

    I'll probably say this out of being tired of listening to Waterloo almost every year at Eurovision shows and events, but for me Gigliola Cinquetti really stood out. Very magical song, beautiful lady, wonderful voice. It's so much better than the tacky melodrama Italy sells us every year since 2015... It feels genuine, not a score-climbing-for-sure formula.

    1974, what a great contest it was!!! Dont agree with most of the results (not talking about ABBA, of course) but, unfortunatelly, that is what happens most of times.
    Actually I love the contests of the 70's, really love!!! The 80's are extremely cheesy with just a few good songs. Of course, once more, it is just my opinion.

    you can clearly see why ABBA won this by a landslide. They immediately stood out on this lineup.
    I felt the first half of the songs where a mish mash of the same stuff. If you didn't pay attention and only was listening, you could easily miss when the song switches.

    Three countries shared the 4th place. If it had been today the one with the most televotes would have got the 4th place, but since there were no televotes then, the next tie breaking rule would be the one with points from the most countries.
    The UK got points from 8 countries, Luxembourg got points from 9 countries, and Monaco from 10 countries. So Monaco would've been 4th, Luxembourg 5th and the UK 6th. But that doesn't matter now, it's just a nerd fact, they all shared 4th place, since they didn't have the tiebreaking rules then.

      @@silvergir89 No, the tiebreaking rules apply to all, not just the ones who got the most points. Like in 2022, Finland ended up in 21st place and Czech Republic in 22nd place, even if both got 38 p in total, because Finland had more televoting points.
      Due to the tie breaking rules, Finland became the winner of those two in the tie break, and got the 21st place while Czech Republic in 22nd place.
