ESC birthdays 23 Feb – The tender shoots of Spring

Inger Berggren

Here’s a song from a contest you probably don’t watch on a screen very often. It’s a tender song about a shop. Not a baker’s show, but a jeweller’s instead. A Swedish one to boot. Control yourselves. A bit odd as the Dutch are more renowned as diamond merchants. But there we go. This jeweller’s – not a baker’s – is the scene for a tender moment between two people who fall in love. You could say that one lover wins the tender heart of the other. This song is screened in glorious black & white and sung in Luxembourg by Inger Berggren. Inger is 82 today.

Grattis på födelsedagen, Inger!
