Malta was drawn to compete in the second semi-final of the Eurovision Song Contest which took place on 8 May 2014. Performing as the opening entry during the show in position 1, "Coming Home" was announced among the top 10 entries of the second semi-final and therefore qualified to compete in the final on 10 May. It was later revealed that Malta placed ninth out of the 15 participating countries in the semi-final with 64 points. In the final, Malta performed in position 22 and placed twenty-third out of the 26 participating countries, scoring 32 points.
Background
editPrior to the 2014 contest, Malta had participated in the Eurovision Song Contest twenty-six times since its first entry in 1971. Malta briefly competed in the Eurovision Song Contest in the 1970s before withdrawing for sixteen years. The country had, to this point, competed in every contest since returning in 1991. Malta's best placing in the contest thus far was second, which it achieved on two occasions: in 2002 with the song "7th Wonder" performed by Ira Losco and in the 2005 contest with the song "Angel" performed by Chiara.[1] In the 2013 edition, Malta qualified to the final and placed 8th with the song "Tomorrow" performed by Gianluca.
For the 2014 contest, the Maltese national broadcaster, Public Broadcasting Services (PBS), broadcast the event within Malta and organised the selection process for the nation's entry. PBS confirmed their intentions to participate at it on 19 July 2013.[2] Malta selected their entry consistently through a national final procedure, a method that was continued for their 2014 participation.
Before Eurovision
editMalta Eurovision Song Contest 2014
editMalta Eurovision Song Contest 2014 was the national final format developed by PBS to select the Maltese entry for the Eurovision Song Contest 2014. The competition consisted of a semi-final and final held on 7 and 8 February 2014, respectively, at the Malta Fairs and Conventions Centre in Ta' Qali.[3] Both shows were hosted by television presenter Moira Delia and past Maltese Eurovision entrants Ira Losco and Gianluca Bezzina and broadcast on Television Malta (TVM) as well on the broadcaster's website tvm.com.mt, while the final was also broadcast on the official Eurovision Song Contest website eurovision.tv.[4][5]
Format
editThe competition consisted of twenty songs competing in the semi-final on 7 February 2014 where the top fourteen entries qualified to compete in the final on 8 February 2014. Five judges evaluated the songs during the shows and each judge had an equal stake in the final result. The sixth set of votes were the results of the public televote, which had a weighting equal to the votes of a single judge. Ties in the final results were broken based on the entry which received the higher score from the judges.[6]
Competing entries
editArtists and composers were able to submit their entries between 24 September 2013 and 31 October 2013 with an entry fee of €150 per submission. Songwriters from any nationality were able to submit songs as long as the artist were Maltese or possessed Maltese citizenship. Artists were able to submit as many songs as they wished, however, they could only compete with a maximum of two in the semi-final and one in the final. 2013 national final winner Gianluca Bezzina was unable to compete due to a rule that prevented the previous winner from competing in the following competition.[7] 210 entries were received by the broadcaster. On 19 November 2013, PBS announced a shortlist of 70 entries that had progressed through the selection process.[8] The twenty songs selected to compete in the semi-final were announced on the TVM programme Xarabank on 29 November 2013. In order to present the competing songs to the public, the semi-finalists filmed promotional videos for their entries which were released in December 2013. Among the selected competing artists were former Maltese Eurovision entrants Miriam Christine who represented Malta in the 1996 contest and Fabrizio Faniello who represented Malta in the 2001 and 2006 contests. Sophie DeBattista represented Malta in the Junior Eurovision Song Contest 2006 and Daniel Testa represented Malta in the Junior Eurovision Song Contest 2008.[3]
Shows

Preparation
editFollowing Firelight's win at the Malta Eurovision Song Contest 2014, the band worked with Italian musicians Arturo Pellegrini and Maurizio Campo to create a new arrangement for "Coming Home".[12] The release of the new version was presented on 4 March during a press conference at the PBS Creativity Hub in Gwardamanġa.[13]
Promotion
editFirelight made several appearances across Europe to specifically promote "Coming Home" as the Maltese Eurovision entry. On 5 April, Firelight performed during the Eurovision in Concert event which was held at the Melkweg venue in Amsterdam, Netherlands and hosted by Cornald Maas and Sandra Reemer.[14] On 13 April, they performed during the London Eurovision Party, which was held at the Café de Paris venue in London, United Kingdom and hosted by Nicki French and Paddy O'Connell.[15] On 20 April, Firelight performed during the Russian Pre-Party event, which was organised by ESCKAZ and held at the Karlson restaurant in Moscow, Russia.[16]
At Eurovision
editAccording to Eurovision rules, all nations with the exceptions of the host country and the "Big Five" (France, Germany, Italy, Spain and the United Kingdom) are required to qualify from one of two semi-finals in order to compete for the final; the top ten countries from each semi-final progress to the final. The European Broadcasting Union (EBU) split up the competing countries into six different pots based on voting patterns from previous contests, with countries with favourable voting histories put into the same pot. On 20 January 2014, an allocation draw was held which placed each country into one of the two semi-finals, as well as which half of the show they would perform in. Malta was placed into the second semi-final, to be held on 8 May 2014, and was scheduled to perform in the first half of the show.[17]
Once all the competing songs for the 2014 contest had been released, the running order for the semi-finals was decided by the shows' producers rather than through another draw, so that similar songs were not placed next to each other. Malta was set to open the show and perform in position 1, before the entry from Israel.[18]
The two semi-finals and the final were broadcast in Malta on TVM with commentary by Carlo Borg Bonaci.[19] The Maltese spokesperson, who announced the Maltese votes during the final, was Valentina Rossi.[20]
Semi-final
editFirelight took part in technical rehearsals on 29 April and 3 May, followed by dress rehearsals on 7 and 8 May. This included the jury show on 7 May where the professional juries of each country watched and voted on the competing entries.[21]
The Maltese performance featured the members of Firelight performing with several instruments on stage. The background LED screens projected a field with red and blue skies, while the cube screens displayed black and white photos which were 208 selfies that the Maltese broadcaster received after a public request was made asking fans to send in their photos in late March 2014.[22][23][24]
At the end of the show, Malta was announced as having finished in the top 10 and consequently qualifying for the grand final. It was later revealed that Malta placed ninth in the semi-final, receiving a total of 63 points.
Final
editShortly after the second semi-final, a winners' press conference was held for the ten qualifying countries. As part of this press conference, the qualifying artists took part in a draw to determine which half of the grand final they would subsequently participate in. This draw was done in the order the countries were announced during the semi-final. Malta was drawn to compete in the second half.[25] Following this draw, the shows' producers decided upon the running order of the final, as they had done for the semi-finals. Malta was subsequently placed to perform in position 22, following the entry from Hungary and before the entry from Denmark.[26]
Firelight once again took part in dress rehearsals on 9 and 10 May before the final, including the jury final where the professional juries cast their final votes before the live show. The band performed a repeat of their semi-final performance during the final on 10 May. Malta placed twenty-third in the final, scoring 32 points.[27]
Voting
editVoting during the three shows consisted of 50 percent public televoting and 50 percent from a jury deliberation. The jury consisted of five music industry professionals who were citizens of the country they represent, with their names published before the contest to ensure transparency. This jury was asked to judge each contestant based on: vocal capacity; the stage performance; the song's composition and originality; and the overall impression by the act. In addition, no member of a national jury could be related in any way to any of the competing acts in such a way that they cannot vote impartially and independently. The individual rankings of each jury member were released shortly after the grand final.
Following the release of the full split voting by the EBU after the conclusion of the competition, it was revealed that Malta had placed twenty-fourth with the public televote and sixth with the jury vote in the final. In the public vote, Malta scored 17 points, while with the jury vote, Malta scored 119 points. In the second semi-final, Malta placed twelfth with the public televote with 36 points and third with the jury vote, scoring 113 points.
