Notes
  1. The Swedish Eurovision singers in 1959, 1960 and 1961 were chosen internally by SVT, the songs were performed by different singers at Melodifestivalen.
  2. The band's name was changed to "Nova" for Eurovision in order to avoid confusion between the band and the country of the same name.
  3. The song's title was changed to "Boogaloo" for Eurovision to avoid using a brand name.
