Footnotes

• In 1958 the third placed song "Volare" by Domenico Modugno (Italy) made #10 in the UK chart, and over the next two years cover versions by Dean Martin (#2), Marino Marini (#13), Bobby Rydell (#22) and Charlie Drake (#28) also charted.

• In 1959 the sixth placed song "Ciao Ciao Bambina" by Modugno made #29 in the UK chart, a cover version by Marino Marini (once more!) also charted.

• In 1960 the eighth placed song "Romantica" by Renato Rascel (you guessed, Italy) was covered by Jane Morgan and made #39.

• In 1961 the fifth placed song "Al Di La" by Betty Curtis (yup, Italy) was covered by countryman Emilio Pericoli and made #30.

• In 1964 the sixth placed song "Warum Nur Warum" by Udo Jurgens (Austria) was covered by that years UK entrant Matt Monro in an English version called "Walk Away".  While Matt's own entry failed to chart, "Walk Away" made #4.     

• In 1967 the fourth placed song "L'Amour Est Bleu" by Vicky Leandros (Luxembourg) went on to be covered by many artists over the next year.  The Paul Mauriat Orchestra made #12 and Jeff Beck made #23 with instrumental versions, both in early 1968, and the Dells combined it in a medley with "I Can Sing A Rainbow" making #15 in 1969.     

• In 1969 the three winning songs other than Lulu's failed to crack the UK chart.

• In 1974 the songs placed second and third both made #8. They were "Go" by Gigliola Cinquetti (Italy) and  "I  See A Star" by Mouth & MacNeal (Netherlands).

• In 2000 the winning song "Fly On The Wings Of Love" by the Olsen Brothers did not chart but a cover version in 2003 by XTM made #8. 

• In 2007 the second placed song "Dancing Lasha Tumbai" by Verka Serduchka (Ukraine) made #28. 

• In 2008 the third placed song "Secret Combination" by Kalomira (Greece) made #71.   

• In 2009 the second placed song "Is It You" by Yohanna (Iceland) made #49.  

Preselections

• In 1973 "Help It Along/Tomorrow Rising", which were respectively placed third and fourth in the UK selection, scored a double A-side #29 hit for Cliff Richard.

• In 1975 "Don't Throw It All Away", which placed fourth in the UK selection,  made #20 for its composer Gary Benson.

• In 1982 "Fantasy Island" failed in the Dutch final but went on to very soon achieve #5 in the UK chart for Tight Fit
