Denmark wins Eurovision Song Contest 2013, Armenia comes 18th

Emmelie de Forest from Denmark won the 2013 edition of Europe’s Favourite TV Show with her song Only Teardrops.

The final outcome was decided by a 50:50 split between professional juries and televoting from all 39 participants. The jury votes were decided during the Jury Final last night and the televotes decided during tonight’s show.

The 26 finalists were made up of 20 qualifiers from the first and second Semi-Finals held on the 14th and 16th of May and six automatic qualifiers including the Big 5 countries (France, Germany, Italy, Spain and the United Kingdom) and the host country Sweden.

Armenia, represented by rock band Dorians, came in 18th in the contest. Immediately following the show, the Dorians left a note in the Facebook, thanking all fans in Armenia and all over the world for the support before and after the contest.

“We are in high spirits as this contest was only a page in our career,” they wrote.
