One day love - Angela Farrell

Angela Farrell was born in 1952 in Donegal, Ireland. She represented her country in 1971 with the song 'One day love', written by Donald Martin and Ita Flynn.

The lyrics of the song are addressed to a former lover, who apparently enjoys duping women and breaking their hearts. The singer hopes he will get a taste of his own medicine one day. Angela earned her wages by working at a chemist’s shop in Portadown, County Arnagh during the day and singing in cabarets in various Northern Irish clubs at night. She intended to stop her day job if she would win the Eurovision Song Contest – but that didn’t happen. She finished in 11th place in a field of 18 competitors.
