Bucks Fizz performed the timeless classic tune Making Your Mind Up, together with the now famous skirt ripping dance routine. This was one of the most up-tempo songs of the evening, and with only two rounds of voting to go, it was a three-way tie between Germany. the UK and Switzerland. Switzerland were yet to vote and gave eight points to the UK, but Nil Points to Germany. Despite the final jury giving Germany maximum points, Bucks Fizz won the contest.
This victory was to set them up for a career that was to be as successful as any British Eurovision winner before, or since. They went on to be one of the most popular bands of the 80s with a string of hit singles and albums.
Making Your Mind Up was a number one for the group in nine different countries and received gold disc status in four countries.. This was promptly followed by a further two top twenty hits - Piece Of The Action and One Of Those Nights - and a self-titled album which went Gold in the UK and Platinum in Australia.
After winning the contest, the group built on their success with other awards and accolades. In November 1981, they won Best Song Award at the Yamaha Song Contest (oriental Eurovision) in Tokyo with the song Another Night.
Their next single, released in November 1981, The Land Of Make Believe went Gold before Christmas of that year and went on to become one of their most popular songs, reaching Number One in three countries and winning the Amplex Golden Reel Award for one million copies sold.
In 1982, the success for Bucks Fizz continued and in April of that year the group's fourth single, My Camera Never Lies, went straight to Number One in the UK. This was followed in May by the group's second studio album, Are You Ready, which went Gold immediately. This also produced another hit, Now Those Days Are Gone, which reached number 8 in the UK charts.
1984 was to be an eventful year. Bucks Fizz toured the UK on a 7 week sell out tour.
1983 saw the release of If You Cant Stand The Heat which reached number 10 in the UK charts. This was followed by Run For Your Life. Both singles were featured on the group's third studio album, Hand Cut, which charted at number 15 in the UK.
Later that year saw the release of When We Were Young, a slightly different sound with Jay on lead vocal. London Town followed and then a Greatest Hits album which finished the year on a high.
Three more singles were released: Talking In Your Sleep, Golden Days and I Hear Talk which was a surprise club hit in America. Fate was to deal the group a devastating blow that year: whilst on tour in December there was a horrific Coach crash which resulted in the serious injury of Mike Nolan.
As Mike was on the road to recovery Bucks Fizz received yet another blow as Jay Aston decided to depart the group after a scandalous affair with the bands Manager which made front page of all the tabloids.
Auditions were held in London for a Jay Aston replacement. About 800 girls turned up to audition and finally Shelley Preston was recruited to replace Jay.
1986 saw Bucks Fizz back on top of the charts with a new look, a new record deal with Polydor and a new single called New Beginning. The single reached number 8 in the UK charts and was a great success.
A further two singles were also released this year: Love The One Your With" and Keep Each Other Warm, together with what would be their 5th studio album, Writing On The Wall.
The single Heart Of Stone was released in 1988. This would later be covered by Cher a couple of years later.
Shelley Preston decided to leave the group in 1990 to pursue solo projects and the group continued as a trio.
The group's albums are currently available on CD, as well as a recently released Best Of CD/DVD which made the top 40 in May 2007.

Farruko The Long Ranger
Llevo tiempo buscando uoo
Llevo tiempo buscando uoo
Sentimientos no han llegado
No eh sido seleccionado
Me quedare solo
Llevo buscando hace meses
Y no eh logrado encontrar
Algo que a ti se asimile
Y que me sepa valorar
Llevo buscando hace tiempo
El salir de mi corazon
Me paso pensando en tu amor
Por eso mi mundo lleno de dolor
Hoy no amaneceSi no encuentro ese amor
Hoy no amaneceNo amanece
Solo ver el amanecer
Si tu vuelves a aparecer
Cambias de color
Todo a mi alrededor
Tu le das sentido a mi vida
Un beso tuyo nunca se olvida
Regresa enseguida
Sana mis heridas
Porque tu eres la luz
De mi cielo azul
Mi sol en la mañana
Porque tu eres la luz
De mi cielo azul
Sin ti yo no soy nada
Pero cuando Dios decida (Cuando Dios decida)
Ponerte en mi vida (Ponerte en mi vida)
Se aclarece el mundo (Se aclarece el mundo)
Solo en un segundo
Pero en este asunto
Pero cuando Dios decida (Cuando Dios decida)
Ponerla en mi vida (Ponerla en mi vida)
Se aclarece el mundo (Se aclarece el mundo)
Solo en un segundo
Pero en este asunto
Hoy no amanece Si no tengo tu amor
Hoy no amanece No amanece
Nunca lo vera
Jamas amanecera
La luna nunca brillara
El sol nunca saldra
Drastico sera
Como se sentira
El dia en conosca a ella
La que me de felicidad
Y ya no puedo no puedoo
Esperar por ese amor
Esque lo sueño lo anhelo
Porque en mi cielo no
Pero cuando Dios decida (Cuando Dios decida)
Ponerte en mi vida (Ponerte en mi vida)
Se aclarece el mundo (Se aclarece el mundo)
Solo en un segundo
Pero en este asunto
Pero cuando Dios decida (Cuando Dios decida)
Ponerla en mi vida (Ponerla en mi vida)
Se aclarece el mundo (Se aclarece el mundo)
Solo en un segundo
Pero en este asunto
Hoy no amanece Si no tengo tu amor
Hoy no amanece No amanece

White Noise y D Anel
Llevo tiempo buscando uoo
I have been searching for a long time
Sentimientos no han llegado
Feelings have not arrived
No eh sido seleccionado
I have not been chosen
Para el amor no fui marcado
I wasn't marked for love
Me quedare solo
I will remain alone
Llevo buscando hace meses
I have been looking for months
Y no eh logrado encontrar
And I haven't managed to find it
Algo que a ti se asimile
Something that resembles you
Y que me sepa valorar
And values me
Llevo buscando hace tiempo
I have been looking for a long time
El salir de mi corazon
To get out of my heart
Me paso pensando en tu amor
I keep thinking about your love
Por eso mi mundo lleno de dolor
That's why my world is full of pain
Hoy no amanece
Today does not dawn
Si no encuentro ese amor
If I don't find that love
Solo ver el amanecer
Just to see the sunrise
Si tu vuelves a aparecer
If you appear again
Cambias de color
Everything changes color
Todo a mi alrededor
Everything around me
Tu le das sentido a mi vida
You give meaning to my life
Un beso tuyo nunca se olvida
A kiss from you is never forgotten
Regresa enseguida
Come back soon
Sana mis heridas
Heal my wounds
Porque tu eres la luz
Because you are the light
De mi cielo azul
Of my blue sky
Mi sol en la mañana
My sun in the morning
Sin ti yo no soy nada
Without you, I am nothing
Pero cuando Dios decida (Cuando Dios decida)
But when God decides (When God decides)
Ponerte en mi vida (Ponerte en mi vida)
To put you in my life (To put you in my life)
Se aclarece el mundo (Se aclarece el mundo)
The world becomes clear (The world becomes clear)
Solo en un segundo
Just in a second
Pero en este asunto
But in this matter
Nunca lo vera
I will never see it
Jamas amanecera
It will never dawn
La luna nunca brillara
The moon will never shine
El sol nunca saldra
The sun will never rise
Drastico sera
It will be drastic
Como se sentira
How it will feel
El dia en conosca a ella
The day I meet her
La que me de felicidad
The one that gives me happiness
Y ya no puedo no puedoo
And I can't wait any longer
Esque lo sueño lo anhelo
Because I dream and desire it
Porque en mi cielo no
Because in my sky not
