Greece will participate in the Eurovision Song Contest 2015 in Vienna, Austria. Maria Elena Kyriakou was chosen to represent Greece in the 2015 contest with the song "One Last Breath". ==Background== (詳細は2005 with the song "My Number One" performed by Elena Paparizou,〔 〕 and having placed third three times: in 2001 with the song "Die for You" performed by the duo Antique; in 2004 with "Shake It" performed by Sakis Rouvas; and in 2008 with "Secret Combination" performed by Kalomoira. Following the introduction of semi-finals for the 2004 contest, Greece has had a top ten placing every year except 2012 and 2014. Its least successful result was in 1998 when it placed twentieth with the song "Mia Krifi Evesthisia" by Thalassa, receiving only twelve points in total, all from Cyprus and in 2014 with the song "Rise Up" by Freaky Fortune feat. RiskyKidd, with 35 points, but this time Cyprus was out of the contest.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=History by Country: Greece )〕 The Greek national broadcaster, Hellenic Broadcasting Corporation (ERT), was in charge of Greece's participation each year, including the selection process for its entry.〔Paravantes, Maria. (11 June 2005). Joy In Greece Over Eurovision Win. ''Billboard'' 117(24), 17-17. Retrieved on 16 January 2009.〕 Although its selection techniques have varied over the decades, the most common has been a national final in which various acts compete against each other with pre-selected songs, voted on by a jury, televoters, or both. In most cases, internal selections have been reserved for high-profile acts, with the song either being selected internally or with multiple songs—by one or multiple composers—performed by the artist during a televised final. One of the more unusual methods was a reality television talent competition format inspired by the ''Idol'' series that ran for many months in 2004, ultimately being scrapped. The notability of the participants has also varied, from previously unsigned acts to established music superstars. Since the 2010s, ERT has used national finals with generally less-established acts. In August 2013, the Greek government shut down the radio and TV services of the state broadcaster ERT, leaving Greece's future contest participation in question. Greece was allowed to participate in 2014 contest, with the interim channel DT organising the national final. On 4 May 2014 the new Greek broadcaster, NERIT, was launced, just 2 days before the first semi final. On 24 July 2014 Greece confirmed their participation in the 2015 contest. In September there were rumours that Greece could not participate in the contest because NERIT wasn't yet a member of the EBU. Those rumours were later confirmed by EBU. NERIT had submitted an application for Active EBU Membership, which is a requirement in order to participate in the Eurovision Song Contest. The application was reviewed at the EBU General Assembly in December 2014. On 5 December 2014 it was confirmed that NERIT was a member of the EBU. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Greece in the Eurovision Song Contest 2015」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
