Lys Assia won Eurovision in 1956 with the song “Refrain.” That same year, the last time two entires were allowed per country, she also sang “Das alte Karussell.” One year later she represented Switzerland again with “L’enfant que j’étais” (she finished eighth). And in 1958 she finished second with the song “Giorgio.”
In 2012, after a 54-year hiatus, she dusted off her vocal chords and entered the Swiss National Final Die grosse Entscheidungsshow with the song “C’etait ma vie.” Now she’s back—backed by a Bernese rap group—with “All In Your Head.” Watching videos of all six songs, it’s remarkable (and kind of creepy) that old Lys looks EXACTLY the same in all of them. Who is painting this lady’s face?
Anyway, Team Wiwi wants to know which Lys Assia Eurovision song is your favorite. You can watch videos of the six songs below. Then vote in our poll. This poll will close on November 13.

Agreed. Her other stuff is just too old skool Eurovision!
It’s crazy, but I actually really like the rap song. Her voice works well with them. I think if the Swiss choose it for Eurovision that it could do well!
