Anna Vissi's Greek Eurovision Song Contest entry Everything has finally hit the Swedish charts at position 41, nearly two months after she sang the host country to a ninth place at the contest in Athens.

Anna's number 41 can be seen as something of a success in Sweden, after the single received almost no promotion there at all. This relative success comes in a year of several successful single releases for Eurovision artists outside their home country, including winner Finland, Belgium and Spain.

Swedish star Carola remains in the charts lingering at position 26, after a very successful home chart run.
