  • Ton nom was the Belgian entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 1962 in Luxembourg, performed by Fud Leclerc. The song itself is a ballad, with Leclerc singing that he and his lover "don't need complicated romances". The song was performed second on the night, following Finland and preceding Spain. At the close of voting, it had received the dreaded Nul Points placing 13th (equal last).

abstract
  • Ton nom was the Belgian entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 1962 in Luxembourg, performed by Fud Leclerc. The song itself is a ballad, with Leclerc singing that he and his lover "don't need complicated romances". The song was performed second on the night, following Finland and preceding Spain. At the close of voting, it had received the dreaded Nul Points placing 13th (equal last). The song is significant in Contest history for being the (joint) first entry ever to fail to receive a point (although the scores of the 1956 Contest have never been made public, so it is possible that one of the entries there did likewise). There were four entries at this Contest to receive Nul Points - the Spanish entry, Austria and the Netherlands being the other three - however Belgium performed first out of all of them, and is thus better-remembered. Three of these entries followed each other directly (Belgium, Spain and Austria).
