Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox song contest
The Eurovision Song Contest 1990 was the 35th edition of the Eurovision Song Contest, held on 5 May 1990 in the Vatroslav Lisinski Concert Hall in Zagreb, Yugoslavia.Шаблон:Efn Organised by the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) and host broadcaster Шаблон:Lang (RTV Zagreb) on behalf of Шаблон:Lang (JRT), and presented by Oliver Mlakar and Helga Vlahović, the contest was held in Yugoslavia following the country's victory at the Шаблон:Escyr with the song "Rock Me" by the group Riva. It was the first contest to be held in the Balkans and the first to be held in a socialist state.
Twenty-two countries participated in the contest, with the same countries that had participated in 1989 returning. The 1990 contest was the first to implement an age limit on the competing performers, following criticism of the participation of two child performers in the previous year's event; all artists were now required to reach the age of sixteen within the year of the contest.
The winner was Шаблон:Esccnty for the second time in its history, with the song "Insieme: 1992", written and performed by Toto Cutugno. Шаблон:Esccnty and Шаблон:Esccnty shared second place, with Шаблон:Esccnty and Шаблон:Esccnty rounding out the top five countries. France and Spain both placed within the top 5 for the first time in several years, while Iceland recorded their best ever result.
Location
The 1990 contest took place in Zagreb, Yugoslavia,Шаблон:Efn following the country's victory at the Шаблон:Escyr with the song "Rock Me", performed by the group Riva. It was the first time that Yugoslavia had hosted the contest, and marked the first time the contest had been held in the Balkans and the first edition to be held in a socialist state.[1][2] The chosen venue was the Vatroslav Lisinski Concert Hall (Шаблон:Lang-hr), named after the 19th-century Croatian composer Vatroslav Lisinski and whose main hall has an audience capacity of over 1,800.[3][4] Constructed between 1963 and 1971, the venue received its first major renovation ahead of hosting the Eurovision Song Contest.[4][5]
Participating countries
The same twenty-two countries which had participated in 1989 returned for the 1990 contest; this marked the first time since Шаблон:Escyr that no changes to the composition of the competing countries were made compared to the previous event.[3][6]
Among the competing artists in this year's event was Ketil Stokkan who was representing Шаблон:Esccnty for the second time, having previously represented the country at the Шаблон:Escyr.[7] Additionally, Kari Kuivalainen, who had also competed in 1986 as Шаблон:Esccnty's entrant, returned as a backing vocalist for the Finnish group Beat, and the Slovene group Шаблон:Ill supported Шаблон:Esccnty's Toto Cutugno as backing vocalists, having previously represented Шаблон:Esccnty in the Шаблон:Escyr.[1][8][9]
Many of the competing songs made reference to the changing political and social landscape across the European continent following revolutions in Central and Eastern European countries in 1989 and spoke of the future of the European continent. The Шаблон:Esccnty and Шаблон:Esccnty entries referenced the increasing freedoms experienced by citizens in countries formerly under repressive regimes, the Шаблон:Esccnty and Шаблон:Esccnty entries harked back to the fall of the Berlin Wall six months prior and the opening of frontiers along the Iron Curtain between east and west Europe, while the Шаблон:Esccnty made reference to the planned signing of the Maastricht Treaty in 1992 which would form the European Union and lead to greater European integration. Other social and political messages were also present among the competing entries, including a message for racial harmony from Шаблон:Esccnty, an ode to the environment from the Шаблон:Esccnty, and Шаблон:Esccnty's Philippe Lafontaine presenting a long song for his Macedonian wife.[1][10][11]
Production
The Eurovision Song Contest 1990 was produced by the Yugoslav public broadcaster Шаблон:Lang (RTV Zagreb) on behalf of Шаблон:Lang (JRT).[2] Goran Radman served as executive producer, Nenad Puhovski served as director, Zvjezdana Kvočić served as designer, Seadeta Midžić served as musical director, and Igor Kuljerić served as conductor leading an assembled orchestra, with assistance from Шаблон:Ill.[3][14] A separate musical director could be nominated by each country to lead the orchestra during their performance, with the host conductors also available to conduct for those countries which did not nominate their own conductor.[7]
Following the confirmation of the twenty-two competing countries, the draw to determine the running order of the contest was held on 10 November 1989.[6][15]
Rehearsals for the participating artists began on 30 April 1990. Two technical rehearsals were conducted for each participating delegation in the week approaching the contest, with countries rehearsing in the order in which they would perform. The first rehearsals, comprising 15 minutes for stage set-up and 35 minutes for performances, were held on 30 April and 1 May. Following these rehearsals each delegation was provided an opportunity to watch back recordings of their performances and engage in a press conference. Each country's second rehearsals were held on 2 and 3 May and lasted 35 minutes total, followed by another viewing session and press conference. Three dress rehearsals were held with all artists, two held in the afternoon and evening of 4 May and one final rehearsal in the afternoon of 5 May. An audience was present during the two dress rehearsals held on 4 May; the final dress rehearsal on 5 May was also recorded for use as a production standby for use should broadcast of the live event became impossible.[6]
During the week of rehearsals problems arose regarding the choice of presenters for the event. Oliver Mlakar and Helga Vlahović had been selected to host the contest, officially announced publicly in March 1990, however a second couple, Rene Medvešek and Шаблон:Ill, had also been chosen as a reserve hosting pair.[6][16] No agreement on which duo would host the contest had been settled going into the rehearsal week however, and screen tests of the voting sequence with the contest's executive supervisor Frank Naef were scheduled to determine which of the pairings would get the job.[17] The ages of Mlakar and Vlahović, respectively 54 and 45 years old at the time, had also resulted in criticism from press outlets ahead of the contest.[1] Subsequently Mlakar and Vlahović walked away during rehearsals on the Wednesday before the event and announced their resignations as show hosts, leading to a hastily arranged press conference to announce Medvešek and Marković as their replacements.[6][17] Meetings held behind closed doors over the following 24 hours however led to Mlakar and Vlahović returning to the contest as the show's presenters.[6][18]
For the first time in its history the contest featured an official mascot, "Eurocat", an animated anthropomorphic cat created by the Croatian illustrator Joško Marušić.[1][19] Eurocat featured within the video postcards which served as an introduction to each country's entry, as well as providing an opportunity for transition between entries and allow stage crew to make changes on stage.[1][20][21] The postcards for the 1990 contest centered around the theme of tourism, in conjunction with 1990 being the European Year of Tourism; each participating country commissioned their own postcard to highlight their country as a tourist destination, with Eurocat introducing these clips while highlighting cultural stereotypes associated with the competing countries.[1]
With music videos having become popular during the 1980s, the television production of the 1990 edition also adapted to new aesthetics: In contrast to previous editions, cameras moved dynamically from, to and around the stage during the performances, and showed angles that could not be seen by spectators in the auditorium.[22] This change in the visual aesthetics was part of a transition which made elaborately staged performances possible, bearing similarities to music videos and which can be noticed in the 21st century editions of the contest.[22][23]
Format
Each participating broadcaster submitted one song, which was required to be no longer than three minutes in duration and performed in the language, or one of the languages, of the country which it represented.[24][25] A maximum of six performers were allowed on stage during each country's performance.[24][26] Each entry could utilise all or part of the live orchestra and could use instrumental-only backing tracks, however any backing tracks used could only include the sound of instruments featured on stage being mimed by the performers.[26][27] The 1990 contest was the first to implement restrictions on the age of the performers, following criticism of the young age of the Шаблон:Esccnty and Шаблон:Esccnty entrants in the previous year's contest, 12-year-old Шаблон:Ill and 11-year-old Nathalie Pâque respectively. For the 1990 event performers were required to be at least 16 years old in the year they competed in the event; although the United Kingdom had selected 15-year-old Emma as their representative, as she turned 16 later in the year she was still eligible to compete.[1][3] The introduction of this rule, which remains in effect Шаблон:As of but which now specifies that the contestant must be 16 years old on the day of the contest final, means that Sandra Kim, who won the contest in 1986 for Шаблон:Esccnty at the age of 13, will hold the record of the youngest ever Eurovision winner in perpetuity, barring any further changes to the rule.[26][28]
The results of the 1990 contest were determined through the same scoring system as had first been introduced in Шаблон:Escyr: each country awarded twelve points to its favourite entry, followed by ten points to its second favourite, and then awarded points in decreasing value from eight to one for the remaining songs which featured in the country's top ten, with countries unable to vote for their own entry.[29] The points awarded by each country were determined by an assembled jury of sixteen individuals, who were all required to be members of the public with no connection to the music industry, split evenly between men and women and by age. Each jury member voted in secret and awarded between one and ten votes to each participating song, excluding that from their own country and with no abstentions permitted. The votes of each member were collected following the country's performance and then tallied by the non-voting jury chairperson to determine the points to be awarded. In any cases where two or more songs in the top ten received the same number of votes, a show of hands by all jury members was used to determine the final placing.[30][31]
Contest overview
The contest took place on 5 May 1990 at 21:00 (CEST) with a duration of 2 hours and 47 minutes and was presented by Oliver Mlakar and Helga Vlahović.[3][7]
The contest was opened with a pre-recorded film entitled Zagreb: City of Music, which showcased various locations in Zagreb and featured performances of various musical styles and genres. Another pre-recorded film featured during the interval between the competing entries and the voting sequence; entitled Yugoslav Changes, which highlighted the various cultures, landscapes, cuisines and industries within Yugoslavia.[1][32][33] The trophy awarded to the winners was presented at the end of the broadcast by the contest's executive producer Goran Radman.[32]
The contest's first entry suffered from a technical incident. The conductor of the Spanish entry was unable to hear the backing track, as the sound engineers had failed to raise the volume of the tape, and could not cue the orchestra to commence on time. When the volume was eventually raised the track was already partway through the song, meaning the orchestra and performers were out of sync with the tape, resulting in the two Salazar sisters of Azúcar Moreno leaving the stage as the backing tape continued to play. The tape was ultimately reset and the performance restarted with no further issues.[1][7][10]
The winner was Шаблон:Esccnty represented by the song "Insieme: 1992", written and performed by Toto Cutugno.[34] It was Italy's second win in the contest, following their first victory in Шаблон:Escyr.[1][35] At 46 years old Cutugno became the oldest Eurovision winner at that point.[36] Шаблон:Esccnty achieved their first top 5 placing since Шаблон:Escyr, placing equal second with Шаблон:Esccnty, while Шаблон:Esccnty's fourth place finish was the country's best ever result to that point.[1][37] Шаблон:Esccnty also achieved their best finish since Шаблон:Escyr, placing fifth.[1] The 1990 contest marks the last time that the future "Big Five" countries all placed within the top 10: alongside Italy's first place, France's equal second place and Spain's fifth place finished, the Шаблон:Esccnty placed sixth and Шаблон:Esccnty placed ninth.[1]

Broadcasts
Each participating broadcaster was required to relay the contest via its networks. Non-participating member broadcasters were also able to relay the contest as "passive participants". Broadcasters were able to send commentators to provide coverage of the contest in their own native language and to relay information about the artists and songs to their television viewers.[26] In addition to the participating countries, a number of additional non-participating countries were name-checked by Helga Vlahović during the event as also broadcasting the contest, specifically Australia, Bulgaria, Canada, China, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Japan, Poland, Romania, South Korea and the Soviet Union.[33] Known details on the broadcasts in each country, including the specific broadcasting stations and commentators are shown in the tables below.
