The current voting system was introduced in 1975, where each country gives 12, 10, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, and 1 votes to it's favourite 10 songs. It seems a little ironic that one of the worst songs, and a group who tried to be axactly like Abba, was born from the new scoring system. The Uk saw it's entry come 2nd once again, which was the now 9th time in 18 attempts.
