1965, Music: Eurovision Song Contest

The 10th Eurovision Song Contest was held on Saturday 20 March 1965 at the "Sala di Concerto della RAI", Naples, Italy. Renata Mauro presented the festival and of the 18 participants the French singer France Gall won for Luxembourg with "Poupée de cire, poupée de son", a song composed and written by Serge Gainsbourg.

Trivia

• For the second time, Belgium (Lize Marke), Finland (Viktor Klimenko), Germany (Ulla Wiesner), and Spain (Conchita Bautista) scored "null points".
• 1965 was the debut of Ireland.
• The Swedish entry by Ingvar Wixell was sung in English. This led to the rule that all participants had to perform their songs using one of their national languages in the 1966 edition.
• Three artists returned for a second time: Udo Jürgens (Austria, previous participation in 1964), Conchita Bautista (Spain, previously participation in 1961) and Vice Vukov (Yugoslavia, previous participation in 1963).

First place: France Gall with "Poupée de cire, poupée de son" for Luxembourg
