    Latvia was lucky at Eurovision 2002 three times before Marie N even took to the stage.
    It was the EBU’s intention that only 22 countries would participate in Tallinn, the top 15 countries from the 2001 contest plus the seven countries that had been relegated from the 2001 contest. As Latvia had finished 18th in Copenhagen, it was out of Eurovision 2002. Latvia’s first stroke of luck was the EBU’s later decision to allow 24 countries to go to Tallinn, even if this decision didn’t help Latvia initially.
    The decision did help the countries that had finished 16th and 17th in Copenhagen, Israel and Portugal, as it gave them a place for 2002. But…Portugal declined and voluntarily took a year out. This was Latvia’s second piece of luck.
    With Portugal out, the final place for 2002 was then offered to the country that finished 18th in Copenhagen. However, two countries had finished 18th in 2001, the Netherlands and Latvia.
    To decide which country would receive the place, the rules stated that the tie-break rule should be applied and the country that was awarded the most 12 points, and then 10 points, eight points and so on if necessary to break the tie, at the previous contest would qualify for Tallinn. Neither the Netherlands nor Latvia received any 12 or 10 points in 2001, but Latvia had received eight points twice and the Netherlands hadn’t received any, and so Latvia was on its way to Eurovision 2002.
    There would be a different tie-break rule in place in 2003, and had that tie-break rule been in place in 2002, then the Netherlands would have been awarded the place in Tallinn.

      I'd say this was at the right time. Eurovision was kinda boring with everyone keeping Status Quo, she broke the norm and Eurovision became fun. She does perform sometimes, but mostly lives a calm family life. She did an interview a while ago and said she ''disappeared'' because she did not want to sell out. She got offered deals, but she did not want to give someone all the control over her life and schedule.

    The Talinn Miracle..
    Latvia not should participate because her bad result in 2002. But the quit of Portugal (not relegated by results) eventually could say present.
    But until this day it wasn't among the favourites for winning. For example, Spain (was ended 7th) was a great candidate for the trophy.
    And well, Marie N came, surprised everybody and like a fever the voters finally made the ESC fly to Riga.
