The presenters wereLolita Morena andJacques Deschenaux . Riva was the winner of this Eurovision with the song, Rock Me, representing Yugoslavia. This was the first, and only, victory for Yugoslavia as a unified state.United Kingdom 's Ray Caruana, lead singer withLive Report was outspoken about coming second to what he considered a much less worthy song. They had been beaten by 7 points.Two of the performers, Nathalie Pâque and Gili Natanael were respectively 11 and 12 years old at their time of competing. Due to bad publicity surrounding their participation, the
European Broadcasting Union introduced the rule stating no performer is allowed to take part before the year of their 16th birthday.The previous year's winner,
Celine Dion , opened the show with a live performance of her winning song and a mimed performance of her first English-language single, "Where Does My Heart Beat Now ". The song went on to become a top ten hit in the US a year later - effectively launching her into international success.Individual Entries
