The Eurovision Song Contest has brought together nations in song for 70 years.
For the past 70 years, one tradition has brought Europeans to their TV screens to marvel at the performances by dozens of singers: the Eurovision Song Contest.
Aside from the glory, winners receive a glass trophy and the chance to host next year’s competition. Ireland holds the record with seven wins.The Eurovision song contest launched careers of ABBA, who won for Sweden with their 1974 performance of"Waterloo," and Celine Dion, who won for Switzerland with her 1988 performance of"Ne Partez Pas Sans Moi," which translates to “Don’t Leave Without Me.”.
Eurovision has long been popular in Australia, and in 2015 the country was invited to send an act as part of the contest's 60th anniversary celebrations. Australia has continued to participate. The final result comes from a combination of public votes and a jury’s decision. This year, public votes from the rest of the world will play a part for the first time.
