Anne-Marie David won the Eurovision Song Contest for Luxembourg in 1973 with the classic 'Tu te reconnaîtras'. She scored a total of 129 points and her win meant Luxembourg became the first outright back-to-back winners of the contest. But it was a close competition. Spain’s ‘Eres Tu’ by Mocedades and the UK’s 'Power To All Our Friends' by Cliff Richard came a close second and third place – with only six points difference between all three songs.
I was 21 when I won in '73, it meant my life has changed completely.Anne-Marie David
Since her first Eurovision appearance, Anne-Marie has toured the world; released successful singles and albums in multiple languages; and returned to the contest in 1979, finishing third place for France. In 1987 she retired from music, but, due to fan-demand, returned in 2003. Hoorah!
