That wonderful melody and the beautiful way he sings , his sweet and lovely voice - are an excellent combination for a great success.. That song is one of a kind and since I was 10 years I remember it so well !! Everything about that is perfect.. The winner of 1981 Eurovision song contest.. 🏆🏆🥇🙏👑💎
Yes, he placed tied 18th with Turkey. Totally undeserved. It should have placed top 5. Considering the lyrics and music, I can say Carlos was ahead of his time with this one. Such a shame.
Yeah, August 26th, 1988. All the country mourned him. Even today for the people who was alive then it stills a traumatic loss. And he died one day after a great fire destroyed the center of Lisbon.
Everybody knows this song in Portugal.more than the song itself, the lyrics are what this song is about, a smack in the face of the pop music industry, try to find a decent translation.
portugal is the most underrated country in esc *-*
@@Billy219but Portugal has won only once
@@Billy219 2017
Poland never won 😢
(I live in Poland)
@@veksivv3993And it didn't deserve to win in 2017. It was Romania.
@@MinhDao-m8mand it's like the only time when they didn't deserve it 😂

Estoy de acuerdo merecía el premio de Eurovisión
I love this one,the song,act,performance,colorful outfit and the joy and fun they are having.
J'adore cette chanson depuis tant d'année...je ne compte plus.Quelle modernité.
Rip Carlos.
This is so iconic
Is it just me or this song predicted that everyone will use playback including singers?
The lead singer could legit be living in 2024 with that outfit.
this is definitely my winner, extremely catchy music, it gives me some old anime opening vibe
Still one of my favourite of all time 🥰😍 12 points from France 🇫🇷❤
Very Good song and performance
Omg so iconic 😂😍
R.I.P. Carlos Paião😢
My favorite of 1981 along with UK, bu this one came last!
It was Norway who came last. Portugal and Turkey were tied one place before last.
Yes, he placed tied 18th with Turkey. Totally undeserved. It should have placed top 5. Considering the lyrics and music, I can say Carlos was ahead of his time with this one. Such a shame.

I just read this poor guy was killed in a car crash. Very sad.

For me much better song then song From UK. Portugal deserve to be in TOP 5 .
Rip Carlos Baião....
And this placed much worse than Bucks Fizz that evening?
Shame on you, Europe!
Too rub the salt on the wound, results were decided by the juries :/
2:47 the red guy had a quick escape from the wires :)
1:11 Sounds like he's saying we're so gay skskskks
em playback que tu es alguem, in fact in Portugal It sounds algah-ee
in Brazil It sounds algay
@@donnie_ekberg Isso pra muita gente é escandaloso... Em pleno século XXI...
@@donnie_ekberg in Brazil it sounds more like "ow gain". And in Portugal I'd say it's more ilike "Owl Gein" hehe
Cringe comment.
Portugal is the most unerrated country on scotland
Winner 🏆 He died😢
He didn't win the show but he won our hearts.
Rip
Enrique y Parchís.
So sad he died in age of 30
One of the best joke entries in ESC history 🤣🤣
More like sarcastic than joke... Specially considering what we have nowadays.
This isn't a joke entry. In fact it's very intelligent commentary, if you knew the lyrics.
GUILTY PLEASURE
Guilty? It's one of the best Eurovision entries from any country.
@@Billy219 I said ONE of the best.
Choreography is dire! Cool enough song but no idez whst it means!
