Total Points 73 For The Second Consecutive Time Ireland Hosted The Eurovision Song Contest This Time In Its Capital Dublin. Due To The Fact That So Many Countries Wished To Participate In The 1994 Eurovision Song Contest The European Broadcasting Union Decided To Adopt A Relegation System. For The 1994 Contest It Would Mean That The Seven Countries That Finished At The Bottom Of The 1993 Eurovision Song Contest Were Relegated And Couldn't Participate In The 1994 Edition Of The Show. Instead Estonia Lithuania Russia Poland Romania Hungary And Slovakia Made Their Debut. However Italy And Luxembourg Withdrew Voluntarily So Only The Bottom Five Countries Of The 1993 Contest In Millstreet - Turkey Slovenia Israel Denmark And Belgium - Were Relegated. That Meant That The Total Amount Of Participating Countries Was 25 Just As In The Preceding Year. Poland's Debut At The Eurovision Song Contest Was Very Successful When Their Representative Edyta Gorniak Came In Second With 166 Points. However The Polish Song Was Almost Disqualified As Edyta Sang Her Song To Nie Ja! Half In English In One Of The Dress Rehearsal Which Violated The Rule That Every Entry Had To Be Sung In The Native Language. Nevertheless Even The Talented Gorniak Wasn't Even Near To This Year's Winner Which Once Again Was Ireland.

The Irish Entrants Paul Harrington And Charlie McGettigan Sang Rock 'n Roll Kids Which In The End Was 60 Points Ahead Of The Runner-Up And Was The Highest Score Ever At A Eurovision Song Contest To Date. This Overwhelming Victory For Ireland Would Not Be The Last In This Century As Just Two Years Later In 1996 Ireland Would Win Again.
