At Eurovision

On the night of the final Brixx performed 13th in the running order, following Spain and preceding Yugoslavia. Denmark was one of very few countries to provide a contemporary-sounding entry in a contest dominated by 1970s-style Eurovision songs, but this proved not to be what the juries were looking for in that year. At the close of voting "Video, Video" had received only 5 points, placing Denmark 17th of the 18 entries, ahead only of the nul-points entry from Finland.[2] The Danish jury awarded its 12 points to contest winners Germany.[3]
