		Running since 1956, the Eurovision Song Contest (in French: Concours Eurovision de la Chanson) is an annual televised Song Contest with participants from numerous countries whose national television broadcasters are members of the European Broadcasting Union.
		Following the dominance of English language songs, particularly Swedens 1974 victory (with ABBAs "Waterloo"), a rule was passed in 1977 that the Song had to be sung in one of the official Languages of the performing country.
		Many viewers of the Contest view the event as a combination of camp entertainment and a musical train wreck (a fact played upon in the English-language broadcast with the sardonic BBC commentary of Terry Wogan) and a subculture of Eurovision Song Contest drinking games and the like has evolved in some countries.

		The Italians had great hopes for their first Eurovision victory as the song was already on the way to becoming a massive hit at home and the performance was certainly memorable.
		It went on to be the biggest selling record of the year in 1958 in the US and in the very first Grammy awards it was voted "Record of the Year" (awarded to the singer) and also "Song of the Year" (awarded to the songwriters).
		However the most successful version of the song in recent years has been by the popular flamenco group the Gipsy Kings which was a European hit in 1990 (you can sing-along karaoke style to their version here).

		Most countries in Europe have taken part at least once during the Contest's history, and such is the magnitude and scale of the Contest that the word "Eurovision" is one of the few household names to be recognised across an entire continent.
		This well-estabilished pattern, however, was notably broken in 2006 with Finnish hard rock band Lordi's landslide victory.
		The Contest has long been perceived as a political institution, where judges — and now televoters — allocate points based on their nation's political relationship to the other countries, rather than on their opinions of the songs.
