Ring-Dinge-Ding (English translation: "Ring-Ding-A-Ding") was the Dutch entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 1967, performed in Dutch by Thérèse Steinmetz.
The song is an up-tempo number, with Steinmetz singing about the sheer joy she feels on certain occasions - describing a series of outlanding activities she wishes to engage in. She explains that when she feels this way, it is a "Ring ding-a-ding-a-ding day".
The song was performed first on the night (preceding Luxembourg's Vicky with L'Amour Est Bleu). At the close of voting, it had received 2 points, placing 14th in a field of 17.
It was succeeded as Dutch representative at the 1968 Contest by Ronnie Tober with Morgen.
