On the night of the final Mess performed 10th in the running order, following Sweden and preceding Belgium. At the close of voting "Sonntag" placing Austria 9th of the 18 entries.[2] The Austrian jury awarded its 12 points to the United Kingdom (but, curiously enough, only awarded eventual winner Germany a single point; the only other country that gave Germany less than six points - Luxembourg, who awarded Germany no points - also gave the United Kingdom their top score).[3]
