Bernadette Kraakman represented the Netherlands in the 1983 Eurovision Song Contest with 'Sing me a song'. Despite the English title, the rest of the song was sung in Dutch, as the rules prescribed. The song finished seventh in the Contest, in the year that Luxemburg won with Corinne Hermes' 'Si la vie est cadeau'.Personally, I wasn't too impressed with this song when it was chosen during the Dutch national final. Vulcano, who also competed that year, had a bigger hit with 'Een beetje van dit', but they didn't get to the Eurovision Song Contest - thanks to the jury that year.
