The Italian entry, "Al Di La", was featured the following year in the film 'Rome Adventure (1962)'.
"April April", the Swedish song, was originally performed in Melodifestivalen (the Swedish national final) by Siw Malmkvist. Siw was replaced by Barbro Svensson (Lill Babs), when, while she was reprising the song after winning, she forgot the lyrics and started laughing, something she did several times during the performance and allegedly in several of the other songs she performed that night, which prompted Swedish Television to replace her.
