Eleonore Schwarz performing "Nur in der Wiener Luft" ("Only in the Air of Vienna"), the Austrian entry at the 1962 Eurovision Song Contest.
The third of the year's four nul-pointers (the first three of which were performed back-to-back!), and if anyone thought that the Spanish entry deserved this, wait till you hear this one! A song that sounds like a throwaway tune from a second-rate Broadway musical, performed by a fauz-operatic voice that, to me at least, sounds REALLY annoying (esp. in the song's bridge, where I felt that my ears were starting to bleed!). Not only the year's worst entry, but one that is high on my list of worst entries ever!
