Melodi Grand Prix 1994
editThe final was held at the Oslo Spektrum, hosted by Tande-P. Ten songs took part with the winner being chosen by a voting from six regional juries. Another set of jury votes were included, which came from the votes cast by the public via Norsk Tipping. Other participants included three-time Norwegian representative and MGP regular Jahn Teigen and Tor Endresen, who would represent Norway in 1997.[1] The song "Uimotståelig" had been sent in and subsequently refused by the Norwegian Broadcasting Corporation for Melodi Grand Prix 1993.[2]

On the night of the final Andreasson and Danielsen performed 17th in the running order, following Lithuania and preceding Bosnia and Herzegovina. The song was a traditional Eurovision-style ballad in a contest very heavily dominated by downtempo entries. At the close of voting "Duett" had received 76 points, placing Norway 6th of the 25 entries.[3] The Norwegian jury awarded its 12 points to contest winners Ireland.[4]
