Bardo – One Step Further (1982)
The greatest Eurovision song that never won was One Step Further by Bardo, representing UK in 1982. It suffered from the “year-after-a-winner” curse, following Bucks Fizz’s triumph in 1981 – but in my opinion this should have won and Bucks Fizz should have come seventh instead. In my memory, One Step Further was an exciting tune sung by an enticing romantic duo who sparkled with chemistry. I have deliberately not rewatched it online so it shall remain permanently frozen in my mind: a perfect Eurovision moment. Tim Thornton, 49, musician, London
