  • The Eurovision Song Contest 1987 was the 32nd Eurovision Song Contest and was held on 9 May 1987 in Brussels, Belgium after Sandra Kim's win the previous year with J'aime La Vie. The presenter was Viktor Lazlo, who is most notable for her massive earrings. Johnny Logan was the winner for Ireland with the song Hold Me Now. That made him the first performer to win the contest twice, as he had won also in 1980 with What's Another Year. It was the largest contest at that time, with 22 countries taking part. Only Malta, Monaco and Morocco failed to compete out of all the countries which had entered the contest in the past. Due to the number of countries, and the time it took for the contest to be held, the EBU set the limit of participating countries to 22. This became a great problem over the next few years as new and returning nations had an interest in participating, but could not enter. Each country that year had a conductor, as was usual at the time, except for Switzerland. The host conductor was Jo Carlier, but conducted for Cyprus as the host entry was selected by Belgium's Flemish broadcaster, BRT. Turkey had a nul point entry again, with Seyyal Taner & Locomotif, singing Şarkım Sevgi Üstüne. It was the second time in 4 years that a Turkish entry had failed to score.
