Grigol Kipshidzeedit
Grigol Kipshidze (Georgian: გრიგოლ ყიფშიძე; born 15 August 2005) is a Georgian singer who represented Georgia in the Junior Eurovision Song Contest 2017. Prior to his Junior Eurovision experience, he studied at the National Center for Folklore between 2011 and 2015, and in 2014 he entered the Vocal Academy of Tbilisi. He has also participated in various singing contests, achieving the most successful result at the 2017 edition of X-Factor Georgia, where he made it to the final.[6]
"Voice of the Heart"edit
"Voice of the Heart" (Georgian: გულის ხმა; Gulis khma) is a song by Georgian singer Grigol Kipshidze. It represented Georgia in the Junior Eurovision Song Contest 2017 and reached the 2nd place with 185 points. It marked only the second time a song from the host nation finished second.
At Junior Eurovisionedit
During the opening ceremony and the running order draw which took place on 20 November 2017, Georgia was drawn to perform ninth on 26 November 2017, following Macedonia and preceding Albania.[9]
Votingedit
In 2017, a new voting system was introduced, in which the results were determined by 50% online voting and 50% jury voting. Every country had a national jury that consisted of three music industry professionals and two children aged between 10 and 15 who were citizens of the country they represented. The rankings of those jurors were combined to make an overall top ten.[10]
The online voting consisted of two phases. The first phase of the online voting began on 24 November 2017 when a recap of all the rehearsal performances was shown on the contest's website Junioreurovision.tv before the viewers could vote. After this, voters also had the option to watch longer one-minute clips from each participant's rehearsal. This first round of voting ended on Sunday 26 November at 15:59 CET. The second phase of the online voting took place during the live show and began right after the last performance and was open for 15 minutes. International viewers were able vote for a minimum of three and a maximum of five songs.[11] They were also able to vote for their own country's song. These votes were then turned into points which were determined by the percentage of votes received. For example, if a song received 10% of the votes, it received 10% of the available points.
