Notes
[change | change source]- ↑ Two songs tied for third-highest score with 99 points, and two other tied for lowest score with 31 points, but the official scoreboard [1] ranks Belarus as third, Russia as fourth, Macedonia as twelfth and Latvia as thirteenth placer. This is consistent with the tie-breaking rule that the song that received points from the most countries ranks higher in the case of a tie.
- ↑ 2.0 2.1 2.2 2.3 2.4 The official song list published on the official website [2] lists Russia, Latvia, Bulgaria, Ukraine and the Netherlands with English variants of their song title. Other sources [3] Archived 2011-11-12 at the Wayback Machine [4] list them with their original title.
