"Love enough for two"
Country : United Kingdom
Year : 1980
Performed by : Prima Donna
Lyrics : Stephanie de Sykes, Stuart Slater
Music : Stephanie de Sykes, Stuart Slater
Arrangement : Graham Preskett
Conductor : John Coleman
The lead singer was married to Eve Graham from the new seekers. He was in the band for a short time too. He sadly passed away un 2016.
If cuteness and enthusiasm could win Eurovision, Sally Ann Triplett would have walked it! 🥰
Kind of so-so at the time but seems like a work of genius compared to the UK's entries now.
I wish I relived those years
When music was so beautiful and life looked much simpler
It really was. I want a Time Machine.
A winner big time, but Johnny Logan was exceptionally brilliant ❤️❤️❤️❤️🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪
There’s nothing guilty about getting so much pleasure out of it, i mean, it was the onset of the 80’s, it just went with the flow. Love it!
They must bring back the orchestra!
True
dead right
Alas that era won't be coming back, the feeling of live instruments is irreplaceable but Eurovision went the way it did, and that is how it will stay :/
I agree.
@@jeffreyweitzman6463 Eurovision song contest takes course to hell ....
With no return ticket...
This deserved better that year
A lovely song. Nice words and sung very well. I am a Eurovision fan.
I think the exact opposite.
That is what Eurovision is all about. We cannot all like the same songs @@gwentheperfectqueen8355
One of my all-time favourite Eurovision songs. Love it still! ❤
My guilty pleasure, love this song.
My guilty pleasure too. Love this song, it should have won.
This was always one of my favourites but didnt do very well. The lead male singer passed away a couple of years ago and the male singer with moustache is jay aston of bucks fizz brother
what a refreshing memory ; spring 1980 I was 14 and they should by far have won !! love from France
I still like it. I feel great when I hear this song. 10 /10.... Greetings from Athens!! 😊🇬🇷
Wonderful sweet , mildly upbeat song , great melodies...inspiring and uplifting..impossible to feel sad watching this.
This is 100 times better than the crap at Eurovision now
Written by Stephanie de Sykes who was born with a smile on her face. Sadly this didn't win but it still is a very catchy tune and today most would call it a guilty pleasure.
I ffel no guilt to anyone lol
Johnny Logan deserves his win in 1980, but this song is very deserving of second.
This is my all time favourite British entry. I still think they should have won that year.
I am from Türkiye. I like this song very much.
We were happier when growing up
Life was so simple we didn't worry as much about stuff in general
@@ruibento9840 Absolutely. You get more and more nostalgic the older you get, just wait until your parents or your siblings pass away. The pain is awful and the nostalgia becomes so strong. I haven't been truly happy since losing my parents.
I think this should have won. It was a very underrated song. One of the best UK entries.
Yes correct, but they were up against Johnny Logan and therefore had no chance
Lovely song. The orchestra helped make this song special
If there’s a place in your heart for me
There’s a room in my place for you
‘Cause I’ve got love enough…
Yes, I’ve got love enough…
Love enough for two
It isn’t every road that leads me home
It isn’t every day I’m on my own
But when I’m feeling sad and all alone
I think of you, yes, I do
You’ve got a very special kind of style
There’s something in your eyes each time you smile
So tell me you can stay for just a while
And love me too
If there’s a place in your heart for me
There’s a room in my place for you
‘Cause I’ve got love enough…
Yes, I’ve got love enough for two
If there’s a time in your life for me
I’ve got a lifetime to spend with you
‘Cause I’ve got love enough…
Yes, I’ve got love enough…
Love enough for two
It isn’t every day you meet someone
You wanna pin your wildest dreams upon
It’s true you haven’t known me very long
But I hope and pray that you’ll stay
There’s something in the way you touch my soul
It seemed that I was half, but now I’m whole
You’ve got me under your complete control
In every way
If there’s a place in your heart for me
There’s a room in my place for you
‘Cause I’ve got love enough…
Yes, I’ve got love enough for two
If there’s a…
If there’s a time in your life for me
I’ve got a lifetime to spend with you
‘Cause I’ve got love enough…
Yes, I’ve got love enough…
Love enough for two
Oh, I’ve got love enough…
Oh, I’ve got love enough…
Love enough for two
Awful lyrics.
Bring back orchestra
Amar pelos dois. :D ;)
I was 12 and bought the single. Still have it somewhere.
Sad that you wasted your money on such a terrible song.
It is a lovely song really, I think ❤️❤️❤️❤️💜💜💜💜💜🇪🇦🇬🇧
Fantástica

Musicales ingleses.
real guilty pleasure!🙂
Love That Song ! A Defo Winner!
And life backing vocals. No more backing tracks
Girl was in bardo a few years later.. in eurovision
82 exactly.
Just come on here to watch this and remind myself of this tune - Kate Robbins (Uk singer, actor, comedienne) just mentioned she was a member of this group! (the girl with dark long hair far left I think!) 👫👫👫
Best song of the competition
two of this group's members latter competed in 1982 in Harrogate as *Bardo*
No just Sally Ann with a different guy.
Not a patch on Maggie Moons song a happy everything, that lost out to a tie break to this, check out the song see if you agree.
You are so right I've just listened to maggie moons song I dont know how we can both remember it because it wasn't played that much on the radio because it didnt make the Eurovision or the charts so how is it that we remember it ?
Maggie Moone's "Happy Everything" is infinitely superior to this.
We do cheesy songs well. Would much rather something like this as the UK entry, than the stuff we enter these days.
But this is unbearavley cheesy too.
That’s one of the most epic moustaches I’ve ever seen, Nigel Mansell would be proud
The epic moustache has long gone and he's been married to Marcella Detroit for 34 years :)
@@doggdogg6019 Lance Aston, the brother of next year's winner Jay. What are the odds?
Really cheesy, but a lovely, sweet song. A shame Sally Anne Triplett’s mic was turned down.
it was turnt down? How do you know?
I agree! As you say, a shame that Sally Ann’s mic wasn’t at the right level. 👍
Greetings from Switzerland Gstaad
41 yrs old omg
43 years now.omg
What baffles me is that despite finishing a credible 3rd place the song didn't even reach the Top 40.
Matt Monro’s 1964 entry didn’t even chart and that came 2nd
they should by far have won ; perfection !!
Yes, this is my runner up behind Germany. I think Sweden gave this 12 points.
@@JeSuisRene Germany was also my dream song !
PERFECTION!? NO, THIS IS IRREDEEMABLE!
It is a cute song, and they certainly chose very good looking people. And hey, it was Eurovision :)
This and Sweet Dreams in 83 should have won.
No.
@@gwentheperfectqueen8355 who
what a thorough answer, thank you.
Even though this was only months after 1979, the clothes style and colours seem more like the mid-80s than late-70s.
The hair style was typical late 70-s.
I was in charge of the milk at a convenience store one summer, and one of the types of cheese was called Prima Donna. The universe has a great sense of humor sometimes. XD
The Milk Monitor. A torrid story of how one convenience store worker controlled the calcium intake of an entire community. Must have been a f*** off big convenience store if there was a role “in charge of milk”. My local Co-op has three or four people working most of the time. Not sure any of them are “in charge of milk”. Do you list that role on LinkedIn?
JOYOUS!
OOh Sally Ann from Bardo afew years later in Eurovision
A very nice song, even though it's more a song for a solo singer with five background singers :-)
Great song, but they were up against Johnny Logan and therefore had no chance.
Is that Sally from '82's Bardo?
The very same. :)
And the guy with the moustache is Jay Aston's (Bucks Fizz) brother Lance.
@@darrinhauxwell5315 I think Jay's brother is the tall one wearing the pink T-shirt.
@@fabiodeluca4816 The girl in blue is Kate Robbins (sister of Ted, Cousin of Macca). The girl in pink is her sister, Jane.
One of the girls (the short hair girl) is her, and like you say, she was in ESC 1982 with the band Bardo.
Maggie moon should have been the entry that year.
Happy Everything is one of the great "lost" Eurovision songs has been covered by various artists since.
This would have fitted in one of the Wandavison episodes for sure.
Sounds like a sitcom theme song
i hatre sticoms.
Like a pre bucks fizz
bucks fizz was a very bad copy from this
@@yogiaol oh really I didn't know that
i loved bardo
So did iove bardo but when sally showed her beautiful legs 2 yrs later they still lost.only bucksfizz had the sex appeal i think
Lijkt op "beg, steal or borrow" van The Seekers van het songfestival van 1972 (ook UK).
Amo a Laura, pero esperaré hasta el matrimonio, la la la...
No está mal del todo,aunque un poco floja.Como se notaba la influencia de Grease,parece una parodia de ésta.
Para nada, ojalá hubieran presentado algo parecido a ''Grease'' por esos años. Es más, tuvieron de representante a la propia Olivia Newton John (eso sí, años antes de que hiciese la película) y le pusieron una canción bastante ñoña; no fea, pero ñoña.
The UK should go the whole hog and enter a song like this again for a laugh......cant do any worse than the songs we have entered the past few years!
2023 UK's should be a drag act ok it won't win but with the way the UK does drag the rest of Europe would just look at it and think 'Jesus, Mary, Joseph and the little wee donkey what in the name of all that is holy was that?'
I love the cheese
Poor Maggie Moone 😟
Liked this one, but let's face it, up against Johnny Logan we had no chance.
And also against Germanys Theater you had no chance.
Perm's great son, but where's your tache?
Is it just me, or are the only mics switched on Danny Finn's (lead) and the two sisters? I can't hear any other male backing, and the female "lead"'s is definitely not on. The BBC around this time did bend the rules and put extra backings backstage (both '83 and particularly '84 where the two onstage backings basically did nothing).
Sally Ann had her mic turned right down as her voice was drowning out the others. It's a shame as she had a great voice.
Noel edmonds
Is it just me or are the women in the pink and blue shirts identical?
They’re twin sisters
God, what a dull song
Was she in bardo 1975?
Bardo in 1982.
I dont remember this at all. A good performance but i not keen on that song. Anyone know the position they reached
3rd in the contest. Johnny Logan won from Ireland with What's another year and he won again in 1987.
@@GamingtheOtter thanks very much for reply..I did watch that year, as i remember Johnny Logan's performance, guess i was putting the kettle, on when the UK were performing lol
Sally Ann interview from recently: th-cam.com/users/wat ch?v=RgjpmWho2OY
Is that kate robbins ?
Yes, and her sister.
Which one is Jay Aston's brother?
Moustache
Sadly a very boring song - well sung but not very inspiring 😮
Written by Stephanie de Sykes. She always wrote boring drivel like this,
Cause i have got love enough
The best performance was Turkey
What??? The best were Irland, Germany, Austria, Great Birtain, Switzerland, Nederlands, Greece, but Turkei and Morocco the last places.
Por eso digo... Parecía una "parodia" imitación mala de Grease.
It sounds like something somebody took five minutes to write to accompany a TV advert. Very mundane and instantly forgettable.
The song is good, but the clothes are just crazy 😝😂
That was what was fashionable at the time, and at least they are bright and colourful ;)
Set the tone for the rest of the eighties , a musical desert
Porno Tach
A very forgettable song.
no sorry unforgettable buddy !
So forgettable that you had to write a comment expressing how forgettable you find it. Doesn’t sound very forgettable to me
Black Lace in 1979 was the worst UK entry upto that point, then in 1980 it was topped by this heap of tripe. #I’ve got Hate enough for two#
I AGREE 100%!
@@gwentheperfectqueen8355 who
Must admit can’t remember this but then again it was about the time I started to lose interest in Eurovision but they were at least still trying to produce catchy numbers and had not quite tipped into the ridiculous as subsequently happened.
