DYLAN COVERS #117 Lulu/Sandy Shaw/Olivia Newton John - Eurovision Girls Special

'skippin' reels of rhyme'

This week we have A Eurovision Song Contest Special, here are three Babes who represented Great Britain in this hideous competition. Saying that, when I was a kid in the 50's and early 60's I used to love the show and it was always a highlight. 

Well ffolks, it goes to show there is life after Eurovision.

First up is Lulu, the mighty lass from Glasgow, with her rendition of the  Mighty Quinn, bad, but I have heard worse.  Her Eurovision effort was Boom Bang-a-Bang which won in 1969. Nothing to Shout about.

Next for scrutiny is Sandy Shaw singing a pretty good Lay Lady Lay. Her Eurovision song was the ghastly Puppet on a String which won the contest in 1967.

Finally we have Olivia Neutron Bomb the Aussie bombshell. Who can forget these tight black satin leggings she wore as Sandy. Her Euro song was Long Live Love which was 4th in 1974. Here she sings a boring cover of  If Not For You.
 
OLIVIA NEWTON JOHN - If Not For You

Finally we have an added bonus of possibly the worst Dylan cover ever and I mean that. There have been some horrible covers and I have featured some in the past, but this takes a lot of beating. The whole disaster is almost saved by the fabulous pink tight number warn by Lulu.
