“Nocturne” – Secret Garden – 🇳🇴 Norway (2ª)
About. For a record third year in a row Ireland hosted the 40th Eurovision Song Contest which was held again in the Point Theatre in Dublin. 1995 was the first time ever that the Eurovision Song Contest took place in the same city for two years in a row. In 1994, the European Broadcasting Union decreased the number of participants to 23 to make sure that the song contest would not last longer than three hours. All of the five relegated countries from the preceding year – Turkey, Slovenia, Israel, Denmark and Belgium – returned to the contest. In contrast, the bottom seven countries of the 1994 Eurovision Song Contest were relegated: Lithuania, Estonia, the Netherlands, Finland, Romania, Slovakia and Switzerland.
Another Irish win (of sorts!). Norway scored its second victory with “Nocturne” performed by the group Secret Garden. The winning song only consisted of 24 words and was inspired by Celtic music. In fact the group’s violinist was in fact Irish meaning that it could be considered to be a victory for Ireland as well.
Facts and figures. Three of the top five countries in 1995 were Scandinavian; Norway won, Sweden came third and Denmark fifth. Germany had its worst placing ever, only the Maltese jury awarded one single point to Stone & Stone’s “Verliebt In Dich”; Since it was the 40th edition of the Eurovision Song Contest, the programme started with a three-minute compilation of previous contests; The United Kingdom sent a rap song in 1995, a rapid departure from previous musical styles seen in the Eurovision Song Contest.

ESC 1995 Scoreboard Ι Detailed voting results:
The Eurovision Song Contest 1995 was the 40th edition of the Eurovision Song Contest and took place in Dublin, Ireland for the second year in a row, following the country’s third back-to-back victory at the 1994 contest with the song “Rock ‘n’ Roll Kids” by Paul Harrington and Charlie McGettigan. Organised by the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) and host broadcaster Raidió Teilifís Éireann (RTÉ), the contest was again held at the Point Theatre which was also the venue the year before. It was held on 13 May 1995 and was presented by Irish newsreader Mary Kennedy.
Twenty-three countries participated in the contest seeing the return of Belgium, Denmark, Israel, Slovenia and Turkey, after being relegated from competing the previous year. Estonia, Finland, Lithuania, the Netherlands, Romania, Slovakia and Switzerland were relegated due to their results at the previous edition. Lithuania would not return to the contest for another four years.
The winner this year was Norway with the song “Nocturne”, performed by Secret Garden, written by Petter Skavlan and composed by band member Rolf Løvland. Spain, Sweden, France and Denmark rounded out the top five, with Spain getting their first top three placing in more than a decade. Further down the table, Slovenia achieved their best result so far, finishing seventh.
Until 2021, this had remained the last time that the top three songs in the final were not performed in English.

The Point Theatre, Dublin – host venue of the 1995 contest.
1.Location. Ireland hosted the contest for the sixth time after winning the contest for a 3rd consecutive year and is the only country to have hosted multiple contests in succession; three in a row between 1993 and 1995. Dublin was again chosen to be the host city, making it the fifth time that the Eurovision Song Contest was staged in the Irish capital. For the second consecutive year, the venue for the contest was the Point Theatre located on the North Wall Quay of the River Liffey, amongst the Dublin Docklands.
After winning the 1994 contest, RTÉ was worried about whether they could afford to host a third consecutive contest in 1995. The BBC had offered to take on the responsibility of hosting the contest, and had also proposed that the contest be staged as a joint production in Belfast, capital of Northern Ireland. In the end, RTÉ decided to stage the contest on its own. However, they did inform the EBU that, should Ireland win once more, that they would not be expected to host the event for the fourth year in a row.
2.Contest overview. Two of Ireland’s winners attended the contest: Dana, Ireland’s first winner in 1970 with “All Kinds of Everything”, and Johnny Logan, in 1980 and 1987 (“What’s Another Year?” and “Hold Me Now” respectively), and the writer of Linda Martin’s 1992 winning song “Why Me?”.
Heavy favourites to win the contest, according to bookmakers, were Sweden with the pop-ballad “Se på mig” and Slovenia, represented by Darja Švajger‘s entry “Prisluhni mi”. Other countries in contention for the win were Croatia, Denmark, Israel, Spain, and the eventual winner, Norway. The winning song was something new at Eurovision in that it contained only 24 words accompanied by long violin solos. The United Kingdom contributed a modern rap number, while the previous year’s runner-up, Poland, went for something that completely contrasted with their début entry.
The stage was designed by Alan Farquharson who also designed the set of the 1993 contest that took place in Millstreet, Ireland. Although it was quite dark and often gloomy in appearance, it did form the basis for a spectacular opening whereby a giant screen rotated to reveal the presenter who descended a stairway which ultimately disappeared to allow for the arrow-shaped stage to come together amid fireworks. The interval act consisted of several well known Irish performers including Clannad, Brian Kennedy (who would go on to actually represent Ireland 11 years later as well as collaborate with the winning group) and was composed by leading musician Mícheál Ó Súilleabháin.
There was much speculation in Ireland as to whether RTÉ had deliberately chosen a song perceived as not having a good chance of winning in order to avoid hosting the contest for a fourth time in a row, although this was never confirmed. This rumour did, however, inspire a popular episode of Father Ted. RTÉ would end up hosting the contest once again in 1997.
3.1.Qualification. The European Broadcasting Union decreased the number of participants to 23 to make sure the show would not last longer than three hours. Countries which had missed the 1994 event were allowed to return, and of the seven countries that had been relegated following the 1993 contest Belgium, Denmark, Israel, Slovenia and Turkey made their return. Seven countries were subsequently relegated in order to make room for the returning countries, with Estonia, Finland, Lithuania, the Netherlands, Romania, Slovakia and Switzerland forced to sit out as the lowest-placing countries in 1994. With Switzerland’s relegation, Germany became the only country of the seven original participants from the first contest in 1956 to have competed in every edition of the contest so far.
