		Most 12 points in one contest were won by the United Kingdom and Greece: Katrina and The Waves received 12 points from 10 different countries back in 1997 for their entry Love shine a light.

	Eurovision Song Contest - MSN Encarta
		Eurovision Song Contest, annual competition broadcast on television across Europe to choose the best pop song from single entries put forward by each participating country (now numbering more than 20).
		The contest was devised by the European Broadcasting Union (EBU, a consortium of state-owned broadcasting companies) in 1956, and was designed to exploit the new potential for linking television broadcasts across Europe for live transmissions, the broadcasting centres being connected at that time by permanent landlines.
		Successful Eurovision music, shaped by its need to appeal across a wide range of national musical cultures, has always had its own character, little touched by the various stylistic strands of mainstream Anglo-American rock that have been the dominant force in popular music over the second half of the 20th century.

		This year's Eurovision Song Contest in Latvia is the biggest in the event's long history and will see 26 countries from every corner of the continent flex their musical muscle in a bid to waltz off with that coveted prize.
		But they've plumped for a Russian language song which is a disadvantage, and their ability to come up with the live goods on the night remains to be seen.

		The United Kingdom is one of Eurovision's most successful nations, with 5 wins (the last in 1997, with 'Love Shine a Light') and an extraordinary 15 2nd places, including - most famously - Cliff Richard and 'Congratulations'.
		Javine's self-penned Eurovision entry, 'Touch My Fire', is probably her best single so far, a modern pop song with a splash of the exotic - depending on who you talk to its influences ae variously Bollywood, Turkish or Greek, though the latter seems most plausible given the contribution of Greek-Cypriot co-writer John Themis.
		I watched the eurovision with a load of friends, we saw Javine and all thought she was a dead cert for Top 5 placing, couldn't believe it when the points came in.

	Soult.com Eurovision \| 2006 \| Netherlands
		One of the original Eurovision countries, the Netherlands managed four victories in the first twenty years (such as Lenny Kuhr's forgettable 'De Troubadour' in 1969), but have had nothing since their last victory in 1975.
		In truth, it was a rather ordinary song that sounded very similar to 1999's 'One good reason'; being the first song after the advert break (when many televoters are still in the kitchen or bathroom) probably didn't help.
		There are inevitable comparisons with 'Sanomi' in the song's use of made-up language (plus English), but it's certainly distinctive both as a song and as a presentation, with the girls kneeling at the front of the stage to play their bongos and guitars.
