Loreen is the only person after Ireland’s Johnny Logan to win the contest twice, and her victory puts Sweden level with Ireland as the most successful Eurovision countries, 49 years after Abba’s famous victory.
Organizers had to walk a tightrope between putting Ukraine center stage and steering clear of any overt political messages, which are not allowed in the contest.Kalush Orchestra, 2022’s winner, mixed video recorded in Ukraine with a live performance in Liverpool in an opening sequence that included a cameo appearance from Britain’s Kate, Princess of Wales, playing the piano.
It said that granting his request, which was made with “laudable intentions”, would be against the non-political nature of the event and its rules prohibiting making political statements.Nonetheless, the show, watched by thousands in person on the banks of the River Mersey and by millions on TV, was infused with the spirit of Ukraine, notably in a rendition of “You’ll Never Walk Alone” jointly sung in the arena and in Ukraine and which brought many in the audience to tears.
