| The Eurovision Song Contest (French: Concours Eurovision de la chanson),[1] often shortened ESC, or Eurovision, is an annual song competition held among the member countries of the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) since 1956.Each member country submits a song to be performed on live television and radio and then casts votes for the other countries' songs to determine the most popular song in the competition. The contest has been broadcast every year since its inauguration in 1956 and is one of the longest-running television programmes in the world. It is also one of the most watched non-sporting events in the world,[2] with audience figures having been quoted in recent years as anything between 100 million and 600 million internationally.[3][4] Eurovision has also been broadcast outside Europe to such places as Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, Colombia, Egypt, India, Japan, Jordan, Mexico, New Zealand, the Philippines, South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand, the United States, Uruguay and Venezuela despite the fact that they do not compete.[5][6][7] Since 2000, the contest has also been broadcast over the Internet, via the Eurovision website.[8]Winning the Eurovision Song Contest provides an opportunity for the winning artists to capitalise on the surrounding publicity and further their career. Artists whose international careers were directly launched into the spotlight following their participation at Eurovision includeDomenico Modugno, who came third with the song "Nel blu dipinto di blu" in 1958, ABBA, who won the contest for Sweden in 1974 with "Waterloo", Céline Dion, who won for Switzerland in 1988 with "Ne partez pas sans moi",[9][10] the Spaniard Julio Iglesias, who has sold over 300 million records worldwide, and Bucks Fizz, who won in 1981 for the UK with "Making Your Mind Up".So tonight.
