1999 Worldvision Song Contest

The 1999 Worldvision Song Contest was the tenth edition of Worldvision Song Contest, and was held in Cologne, Germany. Slovakia did not return to the contest due to being banned indefinitely. Belgium and Brazil withdrew from the 1999 contest for unknown reasons. Five new countries were approved by the WSC committee and entered the contest: Bulgaria, San Marino, Montengro, Bosnia and Herzegovina and Luxembourg. Denmark ended up winning the contest, with Emilé Conroy and her song "Video Games".

Format
Citizens of each participating country vote by telephone and SMS message, which counts for 50%, while a jury in each country also has a 50% say in the outcome. Each country's 10 favourites are awarded 1 to 8, 10 and 12 points. Germany, the 1998 contest winner, automatically qualified for the final.
