To date, she is Malta&#039;s most successful singer at the Eurovision.<br /> <br /> There were initially two more countries expected to make their debuts in this year&#039;s semi-final - the Czech Republic who withdrew in December, and Lebanon who withdrew in March, due to their refusal to broadcast the Israeli entry.<br /> <br /> The bottom four this year were also the &#039;Big Four&#039; - the UK, France, Germany and Spain, who are the biggest financial contributors to the EBU and are therefore guaranteed a place in next year&#039;s final.<br /> <br /> ==External links==<br /> * [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eurovision_Song_Contest_2005 Eurovision Song Contest 2005] - Wikipedia<br /> * [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malta_in_the_Eurovision_Song_Contest_2005 Malta in the Eurovision Song Contest 2005] - Wikipedia<br /> <br /> [[Category:Malta at the Eurovision Song Contest]]<br /> [[Category:2005 in Malta]]</div>
