We’re sad to learn of the passing of singer-songwriter Martin Lee, who won the Eurovision Song Contest in 1976 as a member of Brotherhood of Man Save Your Kisses For Me remains one of the most loved and successful winning songs of all time - we hope that you enjoy this upscaled version of their performance
@@Richardsonprincess00The other three members of the Eurovision lineup - Nicky Stevens (the brunette), Lee Sheriden (the man without the mustache), and Sandra Stevens (the blonde) - are all still alive. Nicky and Sandra Stevens were not related (Nicky’s birth name is actually Helen Thomas and she is from Wales while Sandra is from England), and in fact Sandra and Martin were married for 45 years. (They got together not long after she joined this lineup of the band, informally known as “Brotherhood of Man II”, in 1973. The first Brotherhood of Man lineup was formed in the late 1960s by producer Tony Hiller and after that lineup disbanded, Hiller put together a new lineup but kept the same name, which he owned.)
The song's lyrics describes the gently conflicted emotions of a man leaving his loved one in the morning as he goes to work. The song's final line provided a twist that the person in question was his three-year-old child.
I can’t believe this! Martin Lee was only 77. It feels like we lost this legend way too soon. RIP to one of the singers and writers of one of the best Eurovision songs of all time…
Yes it was too soon. In a world where they live until 100 years, it's soon. However, there are, sadly, younger people too. This spring a friend of a family member just slept away aged 51. Martin Lee could have been her father out from the age.
I'm on my way to work right now. Thank you, ESC team, for this wonderfully nostalgic fantastic motivational song 🎵 Now I'm happier than before this morning 🌄 😊 and I wish all the best to all of you this day. Kisses for y'all. 💋
Great memories when life seemed so much simpler and people didn't bang on about how they were done for. RIP Martin. Love to your family and friends. Great timed. Thank you.
I love watching this - and can't get enough of the gray haired chap in the orchestra. He's loving it! Can't tell if he's piano or drums, but he's rocking out!
Sad news from UK. R.I. P. My condolances to everyone who knew Martin Lee. "Save your kisses for me" will forever be one of the biggest hits from Eurovision.
R.I.P. Dear Martin Lee,. 9 years ago Brotherhood of Man presented this world known song in Denmark, in a reunion Jubilee Concert for ESC, sent on Television. I do hope Brotherhood of Man still will keep going....
Remembering Martin Lee born on November 26, 1946. He was an English singer-songwriter, best known as a member of the pop group Brotherhood of Man. Lee was brought into Brotherhood of Man along with Lee Sheriden, Sandra Stevens, and Nicky Stevens by band manager Tony Hiller in 1972, when its original line up split up to pursue different music careers. The new version won the Eurovision Song Contest 1976 with their song "Save Your Kisses For Me". - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martin_Lee_(singer)
Am I the only one who find Martin Lee was not only a talented singer but also a beautiful and sexy man? His moustache and his hairy chest were very catchy.
The song was awful but Brotherhood Of Man put on the performance of the show to win. They were always a class act. I worked with them in the 90s, they were just about the 4 most genuine people I have ever met. RIP Martin. ❤
No hairy chest or no moustache or beard at this contest please 👎 There is a rose on a performer's shoulder and he tries to show it while dancing, it is so cheap 🤦♂️ I believe nowadays people can't save any kisses for that kind of performance 😒

As far as I could see in an article here in Norway, the 3 other members, where one of them is his wife, are left.
Beautiful song, and beautiful old Eurovision songs contest !
When I heard he passed away I played this song for a whole month cause I'm expecting a baby soon and the baby likes the song
one of the greatest winners and still holds the record for most sold eurovision song physically
a great song that embodies the best of Eurovision: fun, campy, and a great melody! RIP Martin!
Love this coreo, these outfits, song… everything is perfect. You can tell how much was put into this legendary performance. RIP Martin Lee 🙏🏻🕊️

@@DanTony68 thoroughly enjoyed watching that, have heard it many times, but never picked up the last few words. So thankyou for that little bita info.
@@michaelmichael3295 My pleasure 🙏♥️
One of my favourite UK entries ☺️☺️
Kisses for me, takes me back, to gentler times, great song, great lyrics, a Eurvision classic!! Rip martin.
@@ivanjackson7924 I agree. The lyrics were fun and clever. The focus was the song rather than extreme stage presentation (fun but not as relatable)
Rest in peace lee❤🙏 I loved brotherhood of man when I was a kid !! ❤❤❤❤

Cutest eurovision performance ever (for me) ❤❤❤
One of the best GBR entries in their history.
Ein Song für die Ewigkeit.
Du wirst nicht vergessen.
Das hier ist das erfolgreichste Lied in Eurovision-Geschichte, mit 80,3 Prozent der Punkte.
Ruhe in Frieden, Martin.
1946-2024

As an 8 year-old I remember how cool I thought the song and their dance moves were. Almost 50 years later and I still feel the same.
Piosenka ucieleśnia najlepsze czasy Eurowizjii. Będzie wiecznym hitem - łatwo wpada w ucho.
Это потрясающе... 2024!

That will always come in May. Today we pay respect for Martin Lee. 17th of May is more than half a year ahead. Plenty of time to think of that.

Amazing song. Still don't understand Alyn Ainsworth's conducting style, however.
Lol. This reminds me of a church youth singing group with the campy choreo.
The song was awful but Brotherhood Of Man put on the performance of the show to win. They were always a class act. I worked with them in the 90s, they were just about the 4 most genuine people I have ever met. RIP Martin. ❤
