1991, one of the most exciting years in the history of the Eurovision Song Contest. This was the 2nd time after the hilarious Song Contest of 1969 that the voting procedure ended in a -not to be expected- draw!

With one jury to go, Sweden was clearly leading the voting table with 146 points, but from the last country -Italy- they received no points at all. France instead took the 'Douze Points' and so also France ended with 146 points.

EBU scrutineer Frank Naeff was the decisive factor: France received 2 x 'Dix Points' and Sweden received 5 x Ten Points.....thus making Sweden the winner.

  • And with the new Eurovision format, in which 38 up to 42 countries may vote, these close finish voting finishes are definately history :(!

  • 1973, 1979, 1981, 1984, 1989, 1993, 1999, 2001 and 2002 were excitng voting procedures as well.

    But I do agree that 1968, 1969, 1988, 1991, 1998 and 2003 were perhaps the most exciting votings in the history of Eurovision

  • With the new Eurovision Rules France would have won the contest, because France received 146 points from 18 countries. But Sweden 'only' received 146 points from 17 countries!

  • Amina's song and performance were incredible. One of the finest ever ESC entrants. Carola was decidedly average and that's that. France definitely should have won that year. So original.
