Grand Final
Turkey was originally due to participate with the song "La Noyee - The Drowned Girl" by Yann Tiersen, but their user u/egeym was disqualified during the semi-final period for not voting in their allocated semi-final. As a result, u/colexerus who placed 7th in edition 39, inherited their automatic qualification spot for this final.

A similar situation happened in edition 41, where automatic qualifer u/SkiesOvercast failed to vote in the semi-finals. u/SeptimiaZenobia therefore took over their automatic qualification slot. They are marked as an automatic qualifier here.

Non-qualifier Israel was disqualified for not voting. Canada, Curaçao and Fiji all withdrew before the deadline.
