Italian superstar Domenico Modugno also made his third attempt at the title but ended up with Nul Points. The contest was won for the first time by Austria with the song Merci, Chérie performed by Udo Jürgens. It was Udo's third attempt at the contest, and this was his most successful. Austria would eventually go on to win again 48 years later, ending the longest wait between victories by a single nation as of now.
