Denmark's Emmelie de Forest could hardly contain herself. She won the Eurovision Song Contest with 281 points, leaving her competitors closely behind. In second and third place were Azerbaijan and Ukraine.
Bookies had predicted a neck-and-neck finish, and things did go right down to the wire. Denmark's performer and her song "Only Teardrops" had been the long-standing frontrunner, followed closely by Norwegian ice princess Margret Berger with "I Feed You My Love." Dutch rocker Anouk was considered the dark horse of the evening for her melancholy tune "Birds."
And the book makers were right at least when it comes to Emmelie de Forest. The singer is just 20 years old, but already has quite a music career behind her. She toured at 14 with the Scottish musician Fraser Neill around the country, singing everything from Nirvana to Johnny Cash.
At this year's Eurovision contest, she turned up as a tender, barefoot elf in a white, flowing dress alongside two drummers and a flautist. Ahead of the contest, she told the press that she never sings in heels and feels "more natural without shoes."
Was mir an Gewinnern jeglicher Art immer besonders gut gefällt, das ist ihr aus dem Herzen kommendes Strahlen <3
