Un Peu De Poivre, Un Peu De Sel
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Un Peu De Poivre, Un Peu De Sel (English translation: "A Bit Of Pepper, A Bit Of Salt") was the Belgian entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 1966, performed in French by Tonia.
The song was performed third on the night (following Denmark's Ulla Pia with Stop - Mens Legen Er Go' and preceding Luxembourg's Michèle Torr with Ce Soir Je T'Attendais). At the close of voting, it had received 7 points, placing 10th in a field of 18.
The song deals with the singer's quest to impress the object of her affections, whom she sees every day but can't make look at her twice. In desperation, she enlists the help of "the local sorceress", who gives her a recipe to create a love potion. Perhaps unsurprisingly, the potion does its job.
It was succeeded as Belgian representative at the 1967 Contest by Louis Neefs performing Ik Heb Zorgen.
