| Emmelie de Forest won the Eurovision Song Content 2013 for Denmark with the song Only Teardrops last night. |
| The song, which was written by Lise Cabble, Julia Fabrin Jakobsen & Thomas Stengaard, was the pre-final favourite. |
| The 20-year-old won the 58th Eurovision Song Contest which took place in Malmo in Sweden in front of an expected television audience of 125 million people around the globe. |
| The luck of the Irish was noticeably absent as Ryan Dolan was voted into last place despite a great performance of his song Only Love Survives. |
| After the result Ryan said “Unfortunately luck just wasn’t on our side tonight. Obviously it’s really disappointing but I feel I gave it my best shot and I had an amazing team behind me every step of the way. |
| "I want to thank Leanne, Alison, Nicky, Colm and Alan for being such a brilliant team. I’ve enjoyed every minute of my time in Malmo with them.” |
