Has anyone else noticed that Cliff Richard is basically wearing the outfit that that Austin Powers would later go to wear he would also have a red version
The year the Eurovision was won by a Spanish song called La La La. This song should have won it. However Cliff Richard real name Harry Webb wasn't British, he was born in India. Congratulations was written by Irishman Phil Coulter.
It was your own spanish tv network RAE - that discovered the government papers on this from franco...., you should check facts rather than throw abuse.....

1 is an opinion 2 also, it's opinion 3 ok that's right but its doesn't relevant to the contest voting 4 same with 3 5 yes but it's song contest not artists contest 6 same with 5 7 it's turned out to be false Although I totally prefer Congratulations over La La La, Spain won and it is a fact
Damn you salty, is there proof of Franco rigging the votes or is it just to improve your ego?? He's good, but don't rob us of our country's only true win, since the year after's we had to share with other 3 countries, including yours
Just give Spain the win. You know how many victories the UK has? 5. You know how many Spain has? 2. And one of them was a 4 way tie meaning Spain HASNT ever been number one since this contest. Not to even mention that nowadays Spain is the country that has gone the longest without a win
It was the real winner because it outsold in record sales all the other entries put together. And everybody in different countries sings it still today.
@calihartley2010 documentary film shown on Spanish television in 2008 claimed that Caudillo Franco had had the competition fixed to ensure a victory for Spain, which would boost the country's image abroad. Massiel was outraged by the allegations, insisting that she won because her song was better, and that Franco would have not been able to buy any votes for her in the first place. She also blamed the allegations on competition among Spanish TV channels.José María Íñigo, the person who had made the original claims in the documentary, later retracted them, saying "If there had been such a manipulation, it would have been for a different artist who had been closer to the regime." This is a sample...
Does anyone still hear the Spanish entry? No they don’t, this is a timeless classic, heard at all sorts of events. The Spanish entry was unforgettable crap
Joe Dyson but why Had I never heard of this in the USA until a British friend told me about it a few days ago? I think it’s too bad. I mean we had the Beatles, the Rolling Stones and all that, but we were minimally or never introduced to singers like Cliff. I think he had like one song released over here in the late 1970s. I feel the same way about Helen Shapiro as well. Two great British singers that most people here in the USA know little or nothing about.

Has anyone else noticed that Cliff Richard is basically wearing the outfit that that Austin Powers would later go to wear he would also have a red version
he has a cute little nose, silly dancing, and a beautiful outfit
A catchy, fun song which totally deserved to win back at the day. Definitely my favourite from this year!
He gave that performance everything he had and then some.
So Congratulations!
I have arrived!
I am Silvia Night!
And I am shining so bright!
So this is where my English course listening test came from?
Probably the most animated performance that night, haha.
Canción festivalera por excelencia..merecido 2do puesto.
That year in witch de UK was represented by Austin Powers.
The year the Eurovision was won by a Spanish song called La La La. This song should have won it. However Cliff Richard real name Harry Webb wasn't British, he was born in India. Congratulations was written by Irishman Phil Coulter.
Your joking.
@@superfirmino5785 That’s the most British thing to say. They just got the Colonies back together to make this
super !
Yeah, from congratulations and celebration to his disappointment being immesurable and his evening being ruined not long time later.
we lost by 1 point to spain
Then turned out the spanish fiddled the voting.......
Can anyone prove that?
Documents cam to light in Spain 18 months ago.....
That's a fucking lie. Stop damaging us...UK LOST ;)
It was your own spanish tv network RAE - that discovered the government papers on this from franco...., you should check facts rather than throw abuse.....
la la la
Exact
Spain & The UK THE WINNERS Only 1 point!
Is that the Ladybirds (longtime backing singers on the Benny Hill Show) singing backup with Cliff?
No , they did however did provide backings in 1967 and 1974
Backup singers are The breakaways
La la la is more... Triumphant!
It's definitely more toothy ...

null votes from austria, norway, spain and yugoslavia (nearly 1992 alike).
Before cryogenically freezes himself, Austin Powers participated in ESC
Definitely should've won. A timeless classic. The Spanish song was dire.
Actually he did won, the second place because Massiel had a powerful voice and song too! :)
It’s alright. Cliff had the biggest song from that year of Eurovision anyway. So glad he represented!
Right😊😊😊
I prefer the German and Yugoslav entries, but this is also very good! Should have done better than Spain, absolutely.
Esta canción perdió mucho en directo
1 - Better quality song,
2 - better performed entry,
3 - this song is more loved in and outside the fandom,
4 - everyone remembers this song more,
5 - cliff is much more loved & respected,
6 - cliff is an absolute superstar with a career 99% artists could only dream of.
7 - The voting for us was rigged by Franco who bribed the jury.
For all them reasons Spain didn’t win, the UK did. FACT
Most of the fans refuse to recognise spains win in 1968, meaning that unofficially cliff Richard won the Eurovision contest in 1968.
1 is an opinion
2 also, it's opinion
3 ok that's right but its doesn't relevant to the contest voting
4 same with 3
5 yes but it's song contest not artists contest
6 same with 5
7 it's turned out to be false
Although I totally prefer Congratulations over La La La, Spain won and it is a fact
Damn you salty, is there proof of Franco rigging the votes or is it just to improve your ego??
He's good, but don't rob us of our country's only true win, since the year after's we had to share with other 3 countries, including yours
Good song but ,Spain won 1968 Eurovision with song ''la la la '' Massiel sang, the Duo dinamico compositors.Viva Espana!
Ostin pawers
The Spaniard who Shagged me
🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶👫🤠❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️💃🕺💃🕺💃🕺💃🕺☺️🎸🎸☺️☺️☺️☺️🎸🎸👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Everybody hated the Spanish song. I wouldn't be surprised often bribe rumours are true. Ireland should have been second, we should have won.
Just give Spain the win. You know how many victories the UK has? 5. You know how many Spain has? 2. And one of them was a 4 way tie meaning Spain HASNT ever been number one since this contest. Not to even mention that nowadays Spain is the country that has gone the longest without a win
@@Jai05He understood the assignment!! Gracias hermano 🇪🇸🔥
It was the real winner because it outsold in record sales all the other entries put together. And everybody in different countries sings it still today.
The real winner of Eurovisión 1968.
Noooot winner is spain
Patético....
Spain won by making deals with other broadcasters to buy shows they never intended airing, in exchange for votes

We was robbed
The was rumours the contest was rigged to boost Spain image
No, that's not true. I'm from Spain and I know the real story ;)
@calihartley2010 To sum up: Those rumors were fake.
The long story takes a lot of time to tell.
calihartley2010 a different tv station made up the rumor for added controversy. Close wins always have people cooking up stories.
@calihartley2010 documentary film shown on Spanish television in 2008 claimed that Caudillo Franco had had the competition fixed to ensure a victory for Spain, which would boost the country's image abroad.
