Eurovision 1962 France

Isabelle Aubret performing Un Premier Amour ( A First Love ), the French entry at the 1962 Eurovision Song Contest. France s 3rd win in 5 years may sound too much. but this entry simply deserved it hands down Although I personally prefer the studio version, whose sparer, subtler arrangement gets more under your skin, this is still a magical, entrancing melody beautifully sung by Isabelle, who really magnetizes the camera. Six years later, in 1968, she d return to the contest with another ESC classic,
