Ourvision Song Contest 24, often referred to as OVSC 24, was the 24th edition of Ourvision Song Contest. The contest was held in Washington after USA had won the previous edition with Owl City and the song "Fireflies". It was the first time that the United States was hosting the competition as they had never won before.
Break
The admins of Ourvision Song Contest (Kristoffer, Nikolai and Paulina) did a break for the contest between March and June.[1]
This caused some hard times with low interest, however they have told their participants that they would begin the 24th edition during the summer of 2012, keeping the winners from the national selections. By the middle of June 2012 it was confirmed that OVSC would return on June 24, 2012, one year after the contest had been created. OVSC recovered the results from 14 national selections and accepted 9 user submitted entries but claimed there were almost twice as many declined entries due to the recent changes with how entries should be properly submitted. This caused the lowest number of participants ever in an OVSC edition but with the 24th edition being uploaded to Youtube, subscribing users noticed the return of the contest and came back to submit for the 25th edition.
