Lyrics:
Hey you\\nIt's me again\\nHey you\\nStone in my shoe\\n\nI've been aching\\nFeeling low\\nYou're so heavy\\nI have got to let you go\\n\nI'm going where there's zero gravity\\nZero gravity\\nZero gravity\\nI'm free, ah...\\n\nHey you\\nLock with no key\\nHey you\\nEarth with no sea\\n\nI've been freezing\\nOn the ground\\nYou're so heavy\\nI can't let you keep me down anymore\\n\nZero gravity\\nZero gravity\\n\n(and it feels like)\\nAh...\\n(and it feels like)\\nAh...\\n(and it feels like)\\nAh...\\n(and it feels like)\\nAh...\\n\nNothing holding me down\\nNothing holding me down\\nNothing holding me down now\\nNothing holding me down\\n\nNothing holding me down\\nNothing holding me down\\nNothing holding me down now\\nNothing holding me down
Australia participated in the Eurovision Song Contest 2019 with the song "Zero Gravity" written by Kate Miller-Heidke and Keir Nuttall. The song was performed by Kate Miller-Heidke. The Australian broadcaster Special Broadcasting Service (SBS) organised the national final Eurovision – Australia Decides in order to select the Australian entry for the 2019 contest in Tel Aviv, Israel. Ten artists and songs competed in the national final and the winner was selected by a public and jury vote. Australia debuted in the Eurovision Song Contest in 2015 by invitation from the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) as a "one-off" special guest to celebrate the 60th anniversary of Eurovision. On 17 November 2015, the EBU announced that SBS had been invited to participate in the 2016 contest and that Australia would once again take part. In 2015, Australia was guaranteed a spot in the final of the contest and was allowed to vote during both semi-finals and the final; however, from the 2016 contest and onwards, Australia would have to qualify to the final from one of two semi-finals and could only vote in the semi-final in which the nation was allocated to compete. Australia was drawn to compete in the first semi-final of the Eurovision Song Contest which took place on 14 May 2019. Performing during the show in position 12, "Zero Gravity" was announced among the top 10 entries of the first semi-final and therefore qualified to compete in the final on 18 May. It was later revealed that Australia placed first out of the 17 participating countries in the semi-final with 261 points. In the final, Australia performed in position 25 and placed ninth out of the 26 participating countries, scoring 284 points.
