Eurovision Song Contest

1988 1990

The Eurovision Song Contest 1989 was the 34th annual Eurovision Song Contest. It was held on 6 May 1989 inLausanne, Switzerland, after Celine Dion's victory in Dublin the previous year. The program was presented by LolitaMorena and Jacques Deschenaux. Riva, representing Yugoslavia, won with the song Rock Me. This was the onlyvictory for Yugoslavia as a unified state.


The United Kingdom's Ray Caruana, lead singer with Live Report was outspoken about coming second to what heconsidered a much less worthy song. They had been defeated by 7 points.Two of the performers, Nathalie Pque and Gili Natanael were respectively 11 and 12 years old at their time ofcompeting. Due to bad publicity surrounding their participation, the European Broadcasting Union introduced therule stating no performer is allowed to take part before the year of their 16th birthday.The previous year's winner, Celine Dion, opened the show with a live performance of her winning song and a mimedperformance of her first English-language single, "Where Does My Heart Beat Now". The song went on to become atop ten hit in the US a year later - effectively launching her into international success.

The color of the Magen David and the stripes of the Israeli flagis not precisely specified by the above legislation. The color depicted in the current version of the image is typical of flags used in Israel today, although individual flags can and do vary. The flaglegislation officially specifies dimensions of 220 cm 160 cm.
