Sweden in the Eurovision Song Contest 1969

Sweden in the Eurovision Song Contest 1969

Sweden chose their entrant for Eurovision Song Contest 1969 in the show "Melodifestivalen 1969". A tie occurred between two songs, but after additional voting, the song "Judy min vän" with Tommy Körberg was selected. It was written by Roger Wallis and Britt Lindeborg. The other song, "Hej clown" was written by Lasse Berghagen and later ABBA member Benny Andersson.

At ESC, held in Madrid, Tommy finished 9th out of 16. Most points came from Sweden's neighbours, Norway and Finland. Sharing the 9th place was Germany, represented by the Swedish singer Siw Malmkvist, who had also represented Sweden in 1960. She did, however, not get any points from Sweden.
