Lys Assia triumphed with the French language song Refrain but it is unknown how her second song, the German language Das alte Karussell, performed with jurors as the points were never revealed.
A second Swiss win happened in Dublin 1988 when a relatively unknown Canadian took the crown in a nail-biting voting sequence; Céline Dion pipped the United Kingdom’s Scott Fitzgerald to victory by a single point with her ballad Ne Partez Pas Sans Moi.
It would take another 36 years for the Swiss Broadcasting Corporation (SRG SSR) to find their third champion; Nemo won Malmö 2024 with their song The Code, which tells the story of coming to terms with their non-binary identity.
