Albania participated in the Eurovision Song Contest 2019 in Tel Aviv, Israel, with the song "Шаблон:Lang" performed by Jonida Maliqi. Its selected entry was chosen through the national selection competition Шаблон:Lang organised by Шаблон:Lang (RTSH) in December 2018. To this point, the nation had participated in the Eurovision Song Contest fifteen times since its first entry in Шаблон:Escyr. Prior to the contest, the song was promoted by a music video and live performances in the Netherlands, Spain and the United Kingdom.

Albania was drawn to compete in the second semi-final of the Eurovision Song Contest, which took place on 16 May 2019. Performing as number 14, the nation was announced among the top 10 entries of the second semi-final and therefore qualified to compete in the final. In the grand final on 18 May 2019, it performed as number two and placed 17th out of the 26 participating countries, scoring 90 points.

Background

Шаблон:Main

Prior to the 2019 contest, Albania had participated in the Eurovision Song Contest fifteen times since its first entry in Шаблон:Escyr.[1] The country's highest placing in the contest, to this point, had been the fifth place, which it achieved in Шаблон:Escyr with the song "Шаблон:Lang" performed by Rona Nishliu.[1] The first entry was performed by Anjeza Shahini with the song "The Image of You" finishing in the seventh place, the nation's second-highest placing to date.[1] During its tenure in the contest, Albania failed to qualify for the final seven times, with both the Шаблон:Escyr and Шаблон:Escyr entries being the most recent non-qualifiers.[2][3] In Шаблон:Escyr, the nation qualified for the final with Eugent Bushpepa finishing in 11th place with "Шаблон:Lang".[1]

In September 2018, the national broadcaster of Albania, Шаблон:Lang (RTSH), officially confirmed Albania's participation in the Eurovision Song Contest 2019 in Tel Aviv, Israel.[4] RTSH broadcasts the contest within Albania and organises the selection process for the nation's entry.[5] Since its debut in 2004, it has consistently selected its entry through the long-standing competition Шаблон:Lang.[5]

Promotion

A music video for "Шаблон:Lang" premiered via the Eurovision Song Contest's official YouTube channel on 10 March 2019.[24] Outside of the music video, Jonida Maliqi travelled to the Banias Nature Reserve at Mount Hermon in Israel to film her introductory postcard.[25] In the postcard, she is seen dressed in 1950s style clothing while walking through the surroundings. Maliqi is subsequently joined by four female dancers on the edge of a waterfall, where they perform an interpretive dance choreography.[26][27] For further promotion, the singer embarked on a small tour with live performances at various Eurovision Song Contest-related events, including in Amsterdam, London and Madrid.[28][29][30]

At Eurovision

The Eurovision Song Contest 2019 took place at Expo Tel Aviv in Tel Aviv, Israel, and consisted of two semi-finals held on the respective dates of 14 and 16 May and the grand final on 18 May 2019.[31] According to the Eurovision rules, all participating countries, except the host nation and the "Big Five", consisting of Шаблон:Esccnty, Шаблон:Esccnty, Шаблон:Esccnty, Шаблон:Esccnty and the Шаблон:Esccnty, were required to qualify from one of the two semi-finals to compete for the grand final, although the top 10 countries from the respective semi-final progress to the grand final.[32]

On 28 January 2019, a special allocation draw was held at the Tel Aviv Museum of Art in Tel Aviv that placed each country into one of the two semi-finals, as well as which half of the show they would perform in.[33] Albania was placed into the second semi-final, to be held on 16 May, and was scheduled to perform in the second half of the show.[33] Once all the competing songs for the 2019 contest had been released, the running order for the semi-finals was decided by the producers of the contest rather than through another draw, for preventing similar songs being placed next to each other.[34] Albania was set to perform in position 14, following Шаблон:Esccnty and preceding Шаблон:Esccnty.[34] At the end of the semi-final, the nation was announced among the top 10 entries and therefore qualified to compete in the grand final.[35]

Voting

Voting during the three shows involved each nation awarding two sets of points from 1–8, 10 and 12: one from their professional jury and the other from televoting. Each nation's jury consisted of five music industry professionals who are citizens of the nation they represent, with their names being published before the contest to ensure transparency. This jury judged each entry based on: vocal capacity; the stage performance; the song's composition and originality; and the overall impression by the act. In addition, no member of a national jury was permitted to be related in any way to any of the competing acts in such a way that they cannot vote impartially and independently. The individual rankings of each jury member as well as the nation's televoting results were released soon after the grand final.[36]

The tables below visualise a breakdown of points awarded to Albania in the second semi-final and final of the Eurovision Song Contest 2019, as well as by the nation on both occasions. In the semi-final, Albania finished in ninth place, being awarded a total of 96 points, including 12 by the televoters from Шаблон:Esccnty, Шаблон:Esccnty and Шаблон:Esccnty, and the same number of points by the juries from North Macedonia.[37] In the final, Albania reached the 17th place with 90 points, including 12 by the televoters from Italy and North Macedonia, and eight by the juries from Шаблон:Esccnty and North Macedonia.[38] The nation's televoters awarded its 12 points to Шаблон:Esccnty in the semi-final and to Шаблон:Esccnty in the final.[37][38] Its juries awarded its 12 points to North Macedonia in both the semi-final and final.[37][38]
