I was blooming for you, only you may pick me

I’ve picked an older random song today. It’s maybe one you’ve never heard before. It might be one you’ll never listen to again.

Back in 1970 our favourite TV show was in crisis. We’d had four winners in 1969. Countries were deciding not to send songs. We were down to a mere 12 countries gathering in Amshterdam. Would things continue? Well, a brand new country won in 1970, and we had more radical things to look forward to in 1971. So all ended well. But back to 1970. Yugoslavia was one of the countries that participated, and they sent Slovene teenager Eva SrÅ¡en. Maybe Slovene wasn’t what 11 juries wanted, but she still managed 4 points – all from the United Kingdom of stuff. Did it deserve more?
