Armenia made its first appearance in the 2006 Eurovision Song Contest with the song "Without Your Love" performed by André. As Armenia had never entered the competition before, André was the first performer of the semi-finals. The song reached the final of the contest on Saturday 20 May 2006. It received a high amount of votes from countries with sizeable Armenian communities such as Russia (12 points which were reciprocated), Turkey (10 points) and France (10 points). Surprisingly, they also got high points from Belgium (12 Points) and The Netherlands (10 Points). Armenia also received 10 points from the organising country: Greece. All these votes gave Armenia a successful Eurovision debut at eighth place.
