Emmelie de Forest performs Only Teardrops |
Some of the voting is not unexpected due to the various diaspora present in Australia. Note the Greek vote, for instance. Possibly more surprising is the third place result for Romania, while Ireland bucked the European trend finishing fifth.
However, once again, congratulations go to Denmark and Emmelie de Forest on her victory not only across Europe, but also with our Australian friends.
