OGAE

[edit]

OGAE (French: Organisation Générale des Amateurs de l'Eurovision, English: General Organisation of Eurovision Fans) is one of the two major international fan club networks of the Eurovision Song Contest. It has branches throughout Europe.[3] Although the Eurovision Song Contest started in 1956, OGAE began in 1984 in Finland.[4] All countries that take part or have already taken part in the Eurovision Song Contest can have their own OGAE and most of them do, as does Lebanon. All other countries around the world are united under OGAE Rest of World, created in 2004. Every year, the organisation puts together four non-profit competitions (Song Contest, Second Chance Contest, Video Contest and Home Composed Song Contest).[3]

In what has become an annual tradition for the OGAE fan clubs, a voting poll was opened allowing members from the respective clubs to vote for their favourite songs of the 2012 contest. Below is the top five overall results, after all the votes had been cast.[5]
