Ukraine in the Eurovision Song Contest
◄2010 2011 2012►

The Ukrainian broadcaster National Television Company of Ukraine (NTU) organised a national final in order to select the Ukrainian entry for the 2011 contest in Düsseldorf, Germany. Thirty-five entries competed in the national selection which consisted of nine shows: five heats, three semi-finals and a final. Seventeen entries qualified to compete in the final, held on 26 February 2011, where "Angel" performed by Mika Newton was selected as the winner following the combination of votes from a nine-member jury panel, a public televote and an online vote. Following controversy regarding alleged voting miscalculations, a new final was planned to be held on 3 March 2011 with the top three entries of the initial final competing. The new final was later cancelled after the second and third placed acts both declined to participate, and "Angel" performed by Mika Newton ultimately remained as the Ukrainian entry.

Ukraine was drawn to compete in the second semi-final of the Eurovision Song Contest which took place on 12 May 2011. Performing during the show in position 6, "Angel" was announced among the top 10 entries of the second semi-final and therefore qualified to compete in the final on 14 May. It was later revealed that Ukraine placed sixth out of the 19 participating countries in the semi-final with 81 points. In the final, Ukraine performed in position 23 and placed fourth out of the 25 participating countries with 159 points.

Background

Prior to the 2011 contest, Ukraine had participated in the Eurovision Song Contest eight times since its first entry in 2003, winning it in 2004 with the song "Wild Dances" performed by Ruslana. Following the introduction of semi-finals for the 2004, Ukraine had managed to qualify to final in every contest they participated in thus far. Ukraine had been the runner-up in the contest on two occasions: in 2007 with the song "Dancing Lasha Tumbai" performed by Verka Serduchka and in 2008 with the song "Shady Lady" performed by Ani Lorak. Ukraine's least successful result had been 19th place, which they achieved in 2005, with the song "Razom nas bahato" performed by GreenJolly.

The Ukrainian national broadcaster, National Television Company of Ukraine (NTU), broadcasts the event within Ukraine and organises the selection process for the nation's entry. NTU confirmed their intentions to participate at the 2011 Eurovision Song Contest on 9 July 2010.[1] In the past, the broadcaster had alternated between both internal selections and national finals in order to select the Ukrainian entry. Between 2005 and 2010, NTU had set up national finals to choose both or either the song and performer to compete at Eurovision for Ukraine, with both the public and a panel of jury members involved in the selection. The method was continued to select the 2011 Ukrainian entry.[1]

Before Eurovision

Evrobachennya 2011 - Natsionalyni vidbir

The Ukrainian national final commenced on 31 October 2010 and concluded with a final on 26 February 2011. All shows in the competition were broadcast on Pershyi Natsionalnyi as well as online via NTU's official website 1tv.com.ua.[2] The final was also broadcast online at the official Eurovision Song Contest website eurovision.tv.[3]

Format

The selection of the competing entries for the national final and ultimately the Ukrainian Eurovision entry took place over four stages. In the first stage, artists and songwriters had the opportunity to apply for the competition by attending a scheduled audition during designated dates.[4] Thirty-five acts were selected and announced on 22 August 2010.[5] The second stage consisted of the televised heats which took place between 31 October and 28 November 2010 with six to seven acts competing in each show. Four acts qualified from each heat based on the votes from a public televote and an expert jury. The expert jury first selected the top three entries to advance, while the remaining entries faced a public vote held following their respective heats which selected an additional qualifier. The jury also selected four wildcard acts out of the remaining non-qualifying acts from the heats to proceed in the competition.[6] The second stage consisted of the semi-finals which took place on 5, 12 and 26 December 2010 with eight acts competing in each show. Seven acts qualified from each semi-final by a public televote and an expert jury. The expert jury first selected the top five entries to advance, while the remaining three entries faced a public vote held following their respective heats which selected an additional two qualifiers. The fourth stage was the final, which took place on 26 February 2011 and featured the acts that qualified from the semi-finals vying to represent Ukraine in Düsseldorf. The winner was selected via the combination of votes from an online vote (10%), a public televote (45%) and an expert jury (45%).[7] The online vote was held from 13 February 2011 and closed before the final, while viewers participating in the public televote during the live shows had the opportunity to submit their votes for the participating entries via SMS.[8] In the event of a tie during the final, the tie was decided in favour of the entry that received the highest score from the jury.[9]

Competing entries

Artists and composers had the opportunity to submit their entries between 5 July 2010 and 19 August 2010.[4] Auditions were held between 19 and 21 August 2010 at the Olmeca Plage in Kyiv where a seven-member selection panel consisting of Walid Arfush (producer), Vlad Baginsky (music producer of NTU), Ruslana Pysanka (singer), Yuliya Magdych (fashion designer), Anton Tseslik (CEO of Kiss FM Ukraine), Igor Likhuta (composer and producer) and Kamaliya (singer) reviewed over 200 received submissions and shortlisted thirty-five entries to compete in the national final.[10] On 22 August 2010, the thirty-five selected competing acts were announced.[5] Among the competing artists was former Eurovision Song Contest contestants Verka Serduchka, who represented Ukraine in 2007 with the song "Dancing Lasha Tumbai", and Anastasia Prikhodko, who represented Russia in 2009 with the song "Mamo".[11][12] On 14 October 2010, Verka Serduchka, who was to gain direct entry into the competition's final, withdrew from the national final due to scheduling issues and was replaced with the song "Shake Your Body" performed by Pavlo Tabakov.[13][14]

Controversy and new final plans

Following Mika Newton's victory at the Ukrainian national final, jury member Hanna Herman petitioned for a re-evaluation of the result due to multiple votes being submitted from a single phone number causing votes to be miscounted. On 28 February, NTU announced that a new final featuring the top three acts in the initial final would take place on 3 March where only a single vote per phone number would be allowed during the show, however both Jamala and Zlata Ognevich declined to participate with the former claiming that votes would again be rigged and the latter having to take part in another television show that day.[25][26] The broadcaster confirmed on 4 March that the new final had been cancelled, and that Mika Newton would remain as the Ukrainian representative for the 2011 contest.[27] A revamped version of "Angel" was presented to the public on 15 March through the release of the official music video, directed by Alexander Ivanenko.[28]

Promotion

Mika Newton specifically promote "Angel" as the Ukrainian Eurovision entry on 27 March by taking part in promotional activities in Armenia where she performed during the National Music Awards.[29] A farewell concert for Newton took place on 24 April at the Independence Square in Kyiv, Ukraine where she performed during the event.[30]

At Eurovision

Mika Newton at the Eurovision Song Contest 2011

All countries except the "Big Five" (France, Germany, Italy, Spain and the United Kingdom), and the host country, are required to qualify from one of two semi-finals in order to compete for the final; the top ten countries from each semi-final progress to the final. The European Broadcasting Union (EBU) split up the competing countries into six different pots based on voting patterns from previous contests, with countries with favourable voting histories put into the same pot. On 17 January 2011, a special allocation draw was held which placed each country into one of the two semi-finals, as well as which half of the show they would perform in.[31] Ukraine was placed into the second semi-final, to be held on 12 May 2011, and was scheduled to perform in the first half of the show. The running order for the semi-finals was decided through another draw on 15 March 2011 and Ukraine was set to perform in position 6, following the entry from Slovakia and before the entry from Moldova.

In Ukraine, both the semi-finals and the final were broadcast on Pershyi Natsionalnyi with commentary by Timur Miroshnychenko and Tetiana Terekhova. The three shows were also broadcast via radio on Radio Ukraine with commentary by Olena Zelinchenko. The Ukrainian spokesperson, who announced the Ukrainian votes during the final, was Ukrainian Eurovision 2004 winner Ruslana.

Semi-final

Mika Newton took part in technical rehearsals on 2 and 6 May, followed by dress rehearsals on 9 and 10 May. This included the jury show on 9 May where the professional juries of each country watched and voted on the competing entries.

The Ukrainian performance featured Mika Newton performing on stage in a long skin coloured dress with feathers on her shoulders designed by Olga Navrotskaya together with a sand artist and a backing vocalist.[32][33] The stage displayed blue rays of light shining down on Newton and the LED screens displayed images painted by the sand artist on a table, which according to the latter depicted the story of a little girl that lost her mom, and an angel comes and saves her when she feels only indifference from other people.[34][35] The stage director and choreographer for the Ukrainian performance was Anatolii Zalevskyi.[36] The sand artist that joined Mika Newton on stage was Kseniya Simonova.[37]

At the end of the show, Ukraine was announced as having finished in the top 10 and subsequently qualifying for the grand final. It was later revealed that Ukraine placed sixth in the semi-final, receiving a total of 81 points.[38]

Final

Shortly after the second semi-final, a winners' press conference was held for the ten qualifying countries. As part of this press conference, the qualifying artists took part in a draw to determine the running order for the final. This draw was done in the order the countries were announced during the semi-final. Ukraine was drawn to perform in position 23, following the entry from Spain and before the entry from Serbia.[39]

Mika Newton once again took part in dress rehearsals on 13 and 14 May before the final, including the jury final where the professional juries cast their final votes before the live show. Mika Newton performed a repeat of her semi-final performance during the final on 14 May. Ukraine placed fourth in the final, scoring 159 points.[40]

Voting

Voting during the three shows consisted of 50 percent public televoting and 50 percent from a jury deliberation. The jury consisted of five music industry professionals who were citizens of the country they represent. This jury was asked to judge each contestant 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 could be related in any way to any of the competing acts in such a way that they cannot vote impartially and independently.

Following the release of the full split voting by the EBU after the conclusion of the competition, it was revealed that Ukraine had placed fourth with the public televote and seventh with the jury vote in the final. In the public vote, Ukraine scored 168 points, while with the jury vote, Ukraine scored 117 points. In the second semi-final, Ukraine placed fifth with the public televote with 91 points and seventh with the jury vote, scoring 76 points.[41]

Below is a breakdown of points awarded to Ukraine and awarded by Ukraine in the second semi-final and grand final of the contest. The nation awarded its 12 points to Slovakia in the semi-final and to Georgia in the final of the contest.
