Controversy

Controversy arose around the end of the semi-final voting stage when one member announced that Akkåville's entry, Alfie, was a cover of UK winning Eurovision entry Puppet On A String. However, it later transpired that the intro was merely a sample of the song and the entry was not disqualified. However, the leader of Akkåville requested for his nation to be withdrawn for the contest and so did not vote, letting another song qualify in their place, as had they voted they would have been 10th in the semi-final.

Furthermore, Saksjaowie, a pre-qualified nation failed to vote in the semi, thus technically ending their 49-edition streak and disqualifying them from the final. Because of this the 11th placer with the best average score (which ended up to be the one in Semi-Final 2) qualified in their place.
