Williams was unknown at the time she took part with two songs in the 1981 Dutch Eurovision selection, as a last-minute replacement for singer Oscar Harris, who had had to drop out at short notice. One of her songs, "Het is een wonder" ("It's a Miracle") emerged the winner, sending Williams forward to the 26th Eurovision Song Contest which took place in Dublin on 4 April.[1] "Het is een wonder" finished the evening in ninth place of the 20 entries.[2][3] Following her Eurovision appearance, Williams released a few singles which passed unnoticed, and soon returned to obscurity. She did however make another appearance on the Eurovision stage in 1999, when along with her daughter Eva-Jane, she was among the backing singers for that year's Belgian entrant, Vanessa Chinitor.[4] References1. ^ESC National Finals database - 1981 2. ^ESC History - 1981 3. ^"Het is een wonder" at diggiloo.net 4. ^Belgium 1999 performer information at diggiloo.net External links
