In context

How good was it, really?
59% of the most it could have scored in the final (114 of 170)
#57 of 1,461 final results ever on that share
1 set of votes gave it their top mark
15th entry for United Kingdom

The share compares eras fairly: points divided by the most one song could have scored that night, meaning the top mark from every other country. Before 1975 the top mark is the most any jury gave one song that year. In 1971–1973 every song got at least 2 points from every jury, so the share counts from that floor.
