  • The rules stated that the participants must sing in one of their national languages, however they were permitted to have a few lines in a different language, as seen in some entries.
  • This was the first time since 2000 that the Maltese language is used in a Eurovision event since "Desire" by Claudette Pace, the Maltese entry for the 2000 contest.[7]

  • All countries were given 12 points at the start of voting. This is so no country gets zero points.
  • As a joke, the Executive Supervisor of the contest, Svante Stockselius, was given 12 points before the voting. This probably because he was scheduled to resign at the end of the year.
