Although there is a voting going on in eurovision.tv to find out the best Eurovision Song Contest songs ever, the scientists in Bristol University seem to know the answer already.
The scientists of Bristol University are certain that the best all-time Eurovision Song Contest song is ABBA's Waterloo, because it has all 7 ingredients needed to become a successful Eurovision song.
The seven key ingredients are the right rhythm, tempo, easy to remember, perfect chorus, change of key, clear end, easy to dance after and costumes, Ananova reports
The title of the song, “Waterloo“, is according to the scientists perfect, as it has only 3 syllables, easy to remember and has a potential to be emotionally attractive.
The runner up was Celine Dion's “Ne Partez Pas Sans Moi“, which won in 1988.
Third place went to the winner in 1967 “Puppet on a string“, performed by Sandie Shaw.
