Johnny Logan singing 'Hold me Now'

Here is the winning performance :

I've seen better performances of this song by him but deserved to win

He is the most successful singer in the Eurovision winning it 3 times

You haven't listened to Johnny?! :o

:P

What's your opinion about him now? :D

Caroline - February 3, 2009 02:15 PM (GMT)
I think he won twice himself and then wrote a song that won or something

I prefer the original aswell

The first time I heard this song was when Dino Jelusic sang it :

He killed the song... xD

Ahhh it wasn't that bad, no way as good as Johnny's version but Dino is a big fan of Johnny Logan

The only bit I prefered of Dino's performance was he kept hold of the notes longer

There is a part in the Eurovision 1987 video were you just want him to keep going ... (at 2:18 in the video)

I just love Johnny's stage presence in the Eurovision video as well

Johnny is undisputably the HM King of ESC... :)

I love "hold me now" :wub: i think it's better than "What's another year".

Dino's version wasn't bad, but Euroband's version is better:D
