United States

As one of the more successful countries in the earlier editions, the United States managed to rack up a total of eight top 10 placements in the first ten editions, finishing 4th four times. However, since the special edition 1 it has experienced a turn of luck; qualifying only two times in seven editions, with a 12th place as its best. This negative trend was stopped in edition 17, when Jaymes Young's "Don't You Know" placed 3rd in Perth.

Despite having participated in 46 editions, the United States had never won the competition until edition 31 when "So Hot You're Hurting My Feelings" by Caroline Polachek won. Until that point, United States was the country with the most participations without a win.
