Well, I'm speechless I wasn't expecting a 3rd place or get again an automatic place to the Grand Final, so I'm quite pleased and surprised. Thank you to and for your 12 points and others who voted for Finland! Also congratulations to Singapore! Great and worthy winner imo!

This is tragic. I feel so sorry for you. Out of curiosity, does someone know the record low prior to this? I think in 3rd edition but they got 3 points It was in 4th edition and they did get points, all coming from the United Kingdom.

Hello it's me again! The 12 points statistics!I had to do it twice so there may be mistakes.Country | Amount of 12 points | Received from | United States | 6x | Poland, Cyprus, Vietnam, Greece, Luxembourg, Austria | - | - | - | El Salvador | 4x | Azerbaijan, The Netherlands, Italy, Costa Rica | Singapore | 4x | Japan, India, Hungary, Ethiopia | Slovenia | 4x | Mexico, Venezuela, Ireland, Russia | - | - | - | France | 3x | China, Singapore, Israel | Finland | 3x | Iceland, The Philippines, Brazil | Ireland | 3x | Australia, Turkey, Sweden | China | 3x | Switzerland, Taiwan, Samoa | Venezuela | 3x | Latvia, Slovenia, Morocco | - | - | - | Israel | 2x | United States, Canada | Slovakia | 2x | Finland, France | Spain | 2x | Croatia, Malta | Guatemala | 2x | El Salvador, Chile | Turkey | 2x | Ukraine, Spain | Japan | 2x | Belgium, South Korea | - | - | - | Mexico | 1x | Guatemala | Australia | 1x | Slovakia | Azerbaijan | 1x | Armenia | Switzerland | 1x | Rest of the World |
That means that this time 19/27 finalists received at least 1x . They were interestingly given almost only to the songs from 1st - 17th place (with Guatemala and Azerbaijan in 24th and 22nd places respectively as only exceptions).
"A few" other things I noted down (they may only be considered as interesting by me lol): Country and player specific:- United States: To my knowledge it's the already third time after #30 and #39 that they're "winning" the 12 points statistics.
- El Salvador: Its 4x are a new record for the country. And it's even more than in the finals of #30 and #37 together (2x and 1x respectively). And logically the from Nijat are the first ones since Gloria's 20 editions ago (which should be the second longest wait behind Montenegro's 26 editions, but El Salvador mainly didn't take part during that period).
- Israel: In #49 the player changed. Since then the country reached 4 finals. In #49 and #52 it both times got 3x and in #55 and #57 now both times 2x. Additionally I'm not sure if the United States and Canada ever agreed with their .
- Finland: Just missed to get the same result and points as last time. However it got the same amount of . Plus (not sure there) it may be a new record for a top 3 entry to receive its first the latest as Iceland was voter 43/49. That's obviously only out of the entries that got more than just 1x of course.
- Australia: Just like Latvia last time the 4th placed entry got only 1x .
Since #54:- It's the 3rd time in a row that a country wins that has never done so before and together with Hungary in #51 already the 4th time this decade.
- it's the first time that the winner of the edition has NOT received the most 12 points.
- it's the lowest amount of 12 points to "win" the 12 points statistics when Guatemala and Canada also got them 6x.
And it's the first time since it's introduction that the Rest of the World voting gives its to an entry that hasn't received any before. About the neighbour voting: Several people noticed that there was a lot of block voting going on this time. But in the end only 8/49 voters actually gave their top points to a neighbour or a country that it's somehow connected to (language etc.).

Honestly quite happy with my result, even though just missed the top twenty I didn't think I would qualify at all so that for me is satisfying Sadly no points or points this edition, but thank you to Cyprus and Hungary as well as the Rest of the World for points Could not be more happy with the winner, honestly this is one of my favourite songs ever along with "I'm Not Leaving" and The Sam Willows are such an amazing band, also first time since then that my twelve points has actually won! Congrats to Singapore, more than deserved Ukraine deserved much better imo, but really pleased for Japan getting top five Out of the rest of the top ten, Finland is the only song I particulary liked but all of them are decent songs Not massively suprised by Canada's record breaking low score, not the worst song but still didn't like it regardless
