The Result
Countries receiving most 12 points / Australia, France and Germany, 3
Countries giving 12 points to the winner / Australia and Finland
Countries receiving points from most juries / Denmark, 18
Highest placing country not scoring a top mark / Denmark in 3rd place with 10 points from Poland and France as highest marks
Lowest placing country scoring a top mark / Belgium in 22nd place getting 12 points from Luxembourg
Several countries took the lead throughout the voting, and once again we had to wait to the very last set of votes before we could crown the winner. In the end Greece took home their thrid trophy with a margin of just one point to Germany, who took the silver. The bronze went to Denmark with France and Australia rounding out the top 5. Further down the scoreboard, Venezuela reached the top 10 for the first time.
Greece was one of the founding members of the contest, but only competed in every other edition for the first 5 editions, before they became a more regular participant. Three of the first four participations resulted in a top 10 finish, and on their fifth attempt Greece struck gold in GM07 with the duo Antique. That was followed by a bronze medal on home soil and several other top 10 results, before a change of HoD occured. The current HoD, Giorgos, took over Greece in GM25 and brought Elena Paparizou to the gold medal in GM30. And only 6 editions later, Greece stands the tallest again! Well done Greece, Sakis Rouvas and Giorgos!
