Azerbaijan has never sung their entry entirely in Azerbaijani and the first country to sing in Azerbaijani was actually Bulgaria in 2012 with their multilingual entry Love Unlimited.
Since the introduction of the current voting system in 1975, Azerbaijan won with the smallest percentage of total votes of any winner.
Azerbaijan is the last country in the Caucasus Region to debut: Armenia was the first, in 2006, followed by Georgia in 2007. Nevertheless, it was the first of the three to win in 2011.

Lyrics:
Stay
The story barely started
Can’t you
Stay
Do you really want no part of this?
One so sweet
Reverie
You back off slowly through the door
You always go and blame the weather
The weather
It hurts so fast
When love goes bad
Until at last
We fade to black
And I’m numb, numb
Numb, numb
Wait
I need some time to fix this, can’t you wait?
We can’t afford to miss this
You back off slowly through the door
You always go and blame the weather
The weather
It hurts so fast
When love goes bad
Until at last
We fade to black
And I’m numb, numb
Numb, numb
We’re living in a memory
The present is the price I pay
Fade to black
We fade to black
We’re living in a memory
The present is the price I pay
It hurts so fast
When love goes bad
Until at last
We fade to black
