The chorus means "I'm not 20". Which is rather odd, as she clearly is. Or thereabouts. LOL at "exercise routine!"

Alizee is generally very good. Any of her songs could win Eurovision for France!

It's just a shame she is such a plain girl and has to rely entirely on her musical talents..... straight face,....

ah, back when we could still do it...

That was a GREAT song. I mean, not just a great Eurovision song, but a great song. I never tire of hearing it. (OK, it's a bit like the sort of hymns you get in happy-clappy churches with vicars in jeans strumming guitars, but still good!)

Nicole! I was 13 then. She did it in several languages on the valedictory performance, I remember!

We could go on all day with this... but I rather liked this Latvian entry from 2000 !

Both Gina G and Love City Groove deserved to do better for the UK. I can still remember their songs - to be fair, though, they did well in the UK charts afterwards. Frances Ruffelle was all right too (1994) and yet at the time it was one of our worst points performances.

Of the winners from the past decade, how many can you hum to yourself without looking them up? For me it's only "Love Shine A Light" and "Take Me To Your Heaven."

It is, but it was from '82... quite a few 80s winners were memorable. 90s-00s ones not so much.
