1999 ←  Festival de la Canción de Eurovisión  → 2001

El Festival de la Canción de Eurovisión 2000 fue la 45ª edición del Festival de la Canción de Eurovisión anual . Tuvo lugar en Estocolmo , Suecia , luego de la victoria de Charlotte Nilsson en el concurso de 1999 en Jerusalén , Israel con la canción " Take Me to Your Heaven ". Fue la cuarta vez que Suecia acogió el concurso, ya que lo había hecho anteriormente en 1975 , 1985 y 1992 . Organizado por la Unión Europea de Radiodifusión (EBU) y la emisora ​​anfitriona Sveriges Television (SVT), el concurso se celebró en elGlobe Arena , con la final el 13 de mayo de 2000. El show en vivo fue presentado por Kattis Ahlström y Anders Lundin .

Participaron en el concurso veinticuatro países. Letonia participó por primera vez, mientras que Eslovaquia , Grecia y Hungría decidieron no competir por motivos económicos. ^[1] Finlandia , Macedonia , Rumania , Rusia y Suiza regresaron después de su descenso de la edición anterior. Mientras tanto, quedaron relegadas Bosnia y Herzegovina , Lituania , Polonia , Portugal y Eslovenia .

El ganador fue Dinamarca con la canción " Fly on the Wings of Love ", interpretada por los hermanos Olsen y escrita por el hermano mayor Jørgen Olsen . Esta fue la segunda victoria de Dinamarca en el concurso, luego de su victoria en 1963 . Rusia, Letonia, Estonia y Alemania completaron los cinco primeros. Rusia logró su mejor resultado en el concurso hasta este punto, mientras que Letonia logró la mejor posición para un país debutante desde el segundo puesto de Polonia en 1994.. El día de su victoria, Jørgen Olsen tenía 50 años y 61 días de edad, lo que lo convirtió en el artista de mayor edad en ganar el concurso. Las edades combinadas de The Olsen Brothers los convierten en el acto de mayor edad en ganar el concurso. ^[2]

Patrocinado por Microsoft , el concurso también se transmitió en Australia , Canadá , Japón y Estados Unidos a través de Internet por primera vez. ^[1]

Ubicación

Globe Arena, Estocolmo - sede del concurso de 2000.

Estocolmo

Malmö

Gotemburgo

Locations of the candidate cities: the chosen host city is marked in blue, while the eliminated cities are marked in red.

It was the first time since 1996 that the contest was held on mainland Europe, having in the interim been held in Ireland, the United Kingdom and Israel.

The Swedish broadcaster, SVT, announced on 7 July 1999, that Stockholm would be the host city of the 2000 contest, with the event being staged at the Globe Arena. 'Globen' (as the venue is known as locally) was said to be chosen due its size, being able to accommodate an audience of 16,000 - a new record - and also because Stockholm had not hosted the contest since 1975. It was also argued that it would be somewhat cheaper than the other options.^[3]

The other possible candidates in the bidding phase had been Scandinavium in Gothenburg and Malmömässan in Malmö. They had previously hosted in 1985 and in 1992, respectively.^[4]

Format

Visual design

The graphic design programme for this year's contest was developed by Stockholm Design Lab and was centred around a stylised mouth logo. It was given the Excellent Swedish Design award later that year.^[5] It was described by its designers as "a sensual, yet stylistically pure mouth representing song, dialogue and speech", and was later one of the possible choices for the generic logo introduced at the 2004 Contest.^[1]The softness of the mouth was contrasted with a pointy typeface, made specifically for the contest. During each performance, a distorted version of each performing country's flag would be shown within the mouth next to the stage.

Interval act

The intermission during the finale of the ESC was "Once Upon a Time Europe Was Covered With Ice", a movie/song directed, composed and edited by Johan Söderberg and produced by John Nordling.^[6] For the film Söderberg had traveled all over Europe to record children performing the score. On stage were violinist Caroline Lundgren (who appeared during the opening dressed in a traditional Swedish costume and exclaimed “Welcome Europe!"), drummer Strängnäs Trumkorps plus street musicians from Stockholm and dancers from the Bounce Streetdance Company.

Incidents

There were some controversies concerning some participating countries. Israel, who opened the contest, entered a group who waved Israeli and Syrian flags advocating peace between the two nations. The two male singers in the group also ran up to each other and kissed for a brief moment. The Russian delegation petitioned for the winning Olsen Brothers to be disqualified, after they had used a vocoder to give Jørgen Olsen an electronic sound to his voice, during one of the verses of their performance. (Even though Russia themselves awarded Denmark maximum 12 points.) This issue was rejected by the European Broadcasting Union (EBU).^[1]

In the Netherlands, NOS decided to take the Contest off air halfway through because of the Enschede fireworks disaster that happened earlier that day, so it could use the channel for continuous news broadcasts. Later, NOS declared that it was both for practical reasons as well as because they found it "inappropriate to broadcast a light entertainment programme on the night of such a catastrophic event". As a result, televoting had to be suspended and the Dutch votes were given by a stand-by jury instead.^[1] The contest was later rebroadcast in full.

Postcards

The postcards used to introduce each country participating involved Swedish themes that incorporated each nation in some respect. All the postcards are filmed in Stockholm, except for the Swedish postcard, which was filmed in Germany. The various themes were as following, listed in appearance order:
