The 45th Eurovision Song Contest took place on May 13th, 2000 in the Globenarena in Stockholm ( Sweden ). 24 countries took part. The show was moderated by Anders Lundin and Kattis Ahlström .
The year before, Charlotte Nilsson won the ESC 1999 with Take Me to Your Heaven (Tusen och en natt) in Jerusalem ( Israel ).
The winners were the Olsen Brothers , who represented Denmark with their contribution Fly on the Wings of Love and thus brought the ESC back to Copenhagen in 2001 after 1964 .
particularities
The German contribution Wadde hadde dudde da? the interpreter Stefan Raab reached the fifth place. Austria with All to You by the Rounder Girls came in fourteenth, the Swiss contribution La vita cos'è by Jane Bogaert reached 20th place and Belgium came last in a field of 24 countries with the song Envie de vivre sung by Nathalie Sorce . Austria, Belgium and Switzerland had to sit out the following year.
Latvia brought a premiere : Brainstorms My Star took third place for the last Baltic debutante. But Estonia and Russia also achieved their best results to date: Ines finished fourth with Once in a Lifetime , Alsou finished second with Solo, right behind the Olsen Brothers.
In the Netherlands, the song contest 2000 was canceled due to a devastating explosion at a fireworks factory in Enschede. Instead of the originally planned telephone vote, there was a jury.
This year the Barbara Dex Award , initiated by a fan site, was presented for the fourth time. The “worst” outfit of the competition is to be awarded with this price, which should not be taken very seriously. This year's winner was Nathalie Sorce from Belgium.
Attendees
Latvia took part in the Eurovision Song Contest for the first time. Finland, Macedonia, Romania and Switzerland were back after a compulsory year break. For this, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Slovenia, Poland, Lithuania and Portugal had to take a compulsory break. Greece, Slovakia and Hungary waived, but Russia was back, making a total of 24 countries this year.
The following performers returned to the competition:

---|---|---|
Sweden | Roger Pontare | 1994 (with Marie Bergman ) |
Spain | Serafín Zubiri | 1992 |
Cyprus | Alexandros Panayi (member of Voice ) | 1995 |
Voting procedure
In the individual countries, the 10 best songs were chosen by the audience via televoting. Then the individual countries awarded 12, 10, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 points and 1 point to these ten best songs. According to the EBU rules for the Eurovision Song Contest 2000 (published on September 23, 1999), all participating countries should vote by televoting. In exceptional cases where televoting was not possible, a jury was used instead: Russia, Macedonia, Turkey and Romania. The Dutch vote was taken over by a jury after the broadcasting of the competition was canceled due to the fireworks disaster in Enschede.
