Bleiben wir noch einen Augenblick in Kopenhagen 1964:
Für Spanien erkämpften NELLY, TIM & TONY, drei Geschwister
aus Udine, Italien, mit dem Song "Caracola" einen Platz 12
bei nur 1 Punkt. Dies, obschon Dänemark mit dem politischen
System in Spanien damals nicht einverstanden war und es
beinahe zu einem Ausschluss gekommen wäre.

Aus den Dreien wurden der Name ´Los TNT´. Hier die WIKIPEDIA-Bio:
Los TNT were an Italian-Uruguayan rock 'n' roll band, popular in the sixties. The band consisted of two brothers and a sister from Udine, Italy: Edelweiss "Tim" Croatto (born 1936), Hermes "Tony" Croatto (born 1939), and Argentina "Nelly" Croatto (born 1941). The acronym and word play "TNT" comes from their nicknames. They and their parents emigrated to La Paz, Uruguay in 1946, and in 1953 they moved to Montevideo, where they started to sing.[1]

In 1959 they moved to Buenos Aires, and they were discovered and hired by the Argentine record label RCA Victor in 1960. Their first single was "Eso", which sold more than 100,000 copies in Argentina and became a success also in Mexico and most South American countries. Their first album, "Los Fabulosos TNT", was published late in 1960. The second album, "La Gira Triunfal por Latinoamérica de los TNT" was published right after a tour through Venezuela, Colombia, Peru and Chile, in 1961.

In 1962 they moved to Spain to work with the record label Belter, and in 1964 they were chosen by broadcaster TVE to represent the country (as Nelly, Tim & Tony) at the 9th Eurovision Song Contest in Copenhagen, Denmark. With the song "Caracola", they placed 12th in a field of 16.[2]

Nevertheless, in Spain they were not as successful as in Latin America and they went back to Argentina. In 1965 they recorded their last single with RCA, which included the songs "Yo No Me Marcho de Aquí" and "Llévame, Llévame".

In 1966 the band dissolved as Tim decided to leave to establish his own record label. Nelly and Tony continued to sing together, as "Nelly y Tony" or "Los Vénetos", first established in Argentina and from 1970 in Puerto Rico. In 1974, Nelly got married and dissolved the duo; meanwhile Tony Croatto continued to work as an entertainer in Puerto Rico until his death in 2005.

JETTE ZIEGLER sang übrigens einige internationale
