Sixty - six songs have won the Eurovision Song Contest, an annual competition organised by member countries of the European Broadcasting Union. The contest, which has been broadcast every year since its debut in 1956, is one of the longest - running television programmes in the world. The contest 's winner has been determined using numerous voting techniques throughout its history ; centre to these have been the awarding of points to countries by juries or televoters. The country awarded the most points is declared the winner. The first Eurovision Song Contest was not won on points, but by votes ( two per country ), and only the winner was announced. There have been 63 contests, with one winner each year except the tied 1969 contest, which had four. Twenty - seven different countries have won the contest. Switzerland won the first contest in 1956. The country with the highest number of wins is Ireland, with seven. The only person to have won more than once as performer is Ireland 's Johnny Logan, who performed `` What 's Another Year '' in 1980 and `` Hold Me Now '' in 1987. Logan is also one of only five songwriters to have written more than one winning entry ( `` Hold Me Now '' 1987 and `` Why Me ? '' 1992, performed by Linda Martin ). This unique distinction makes Logan the only person to have three Eurovision victories to his / her credit, as either singer, songwriter or both. The other four songwriters with more than one winning entry to their credit are, Willy van Hemert ( Netherlands, 1957 and 1959 ), Yves Dessca ( Monaco, 1971 and Luxembourg, 1972 ), Rolf Løvland ( Norway, 1985 and 1995 ) and Brendan Graham ( Ireland, 1994 and 1996 ). Winning the Eurovision Song Contest provides a unique opportunity for the winning artist ( s ) to capitalise on their success and surrounding publicity by launching or furthering their international career during their singing years. However, throughout the history of the contest, relatively few of these artists have gone on to be huge international stars. The most notable winning Eurovision artists whose career was directly launched into the spotlight following their win were the members of ABBA, who won the 1974 contest for Sweden with their song `` Waterloo ''. ABBA went on to be one of the most successful bands of its time. Another notable winner who subsequently achieved international fame and success was Céline Dion, who won the 1988 contest for Switzerland with the song `` Ne partez pas sans moi ''.

Eleven Eurovision winners ( alongside three non-winners ) featured at the Congratulations concert in 2005, in which ABBA 's `` Waterloo '' was voted the most popular song of the contest 's first fifty years. Ireland has finished first seven times, more than any other country, Ireland also won the contest for three consecutive years ( 1992, 1993, 1994 ), more consecutive years than any other country. Three countries have won twice in a row, Spain ( 1968 and 1969 ), Luxembourg ( 1972 and 1973 ) and Israel ( 1978 and 1979 ). Along with Switzerland 's win in the first contest, Serbia is the only other country to win with its debut entry ( in 2007 ), though Serbia had competed prior as part of Yugoslavia and Serbia and Montenegro. Under the voting system used between 1975 and 2015, the winner of the contest was decided by the final voting nation on eleven occasions. Changes to the voting system, including a steady growth in the number of countries participating and voting, means that the points earned are not comparable across the decades. Portugal 's Salvador Sobral holds the record of the highest number of points in the contest 's history, earning 758 with the song `` Amar pelos dois ''. Norway 's Alexander Rybak holds the largest margin of victory in absolute points, a 169 - point cushion over second place in 2009. Italy 's Gigliola Cinquetti holds the record for largest victory by percentage, scoring almost three times as many as second place ( 49 points compared with 17 by the runner - up ) in the 1964 contest. Under the voting system used from 1975 until 2015, the lowest winning score was Norway 's Bobbysocks ! 123 points earned ( of the 216 available from the 18 other countries ) when winning Eurovision 1985, while the lowest winning total ever is the 18 points ( of the 160 total votes cast by 16 countries ) scored by each of the four winning countries in 1969. Under the voting system used from 1975 until 2015, in which each country gives maximum points to its first place choice, Sweden 's Loreen won Eurovision 2012 with the most ever first place votes earned, receiving first place votes from 18 of 41 countries ( excluding themselves ). The 1976 United Kingdom entrant, Brotherhood of Man with the song `` Save Your Kisses For Me '' holds the record of the highest average score per participating country, with an average of 9.65 points received per country. 2011 winner Azerbaijan Eldar & Nigar, hold the lowest average score for a winning song under that system, receiving 5.14 points per country. The United Kingdom has finished second fifteen times at Eurovision ( most recently in 1998 ), more than any other country. The most successful country never to have won the Contest is Malta, having finished second in 2002 and 2005 and third in 1992 and 1998. Another island nation Iceland has also finished second twice, in 1999 and 2009. There is no official runner - up for two of the contests -- 1956 and 1969. In 1956 only the winner, Switzerland, was announced, whilst there were speculative reports that Germany ended up in second place with `` Im Wartesaal zum großen Glück '' by Walter Andreas Schwarz, given that Germany was chosen to host the 1957 contest. In 1969 four songs shared first place by achieving the same number of points ; fifth place was achieved by Switzerland, which is not considered an official runner - up, because of the draw for first place.
