Some trivia 
She Got Me by Luca Hänni is the first Swiss Eurovision entry to got to #1 in the Swiss charts since 1977's Swiss Lady by the Pepe Lienhard band. Luca spent three weeks at #1, Pepe eight!
We like it when a the country's music loving people get behind their entry.
Sending a popular star helped Switzerland this year, both in Eurovision (their best result since 1993) and in the charts.
Celine Dion, who won the contest, only managed a #11 hit in 1988, just as high as Piero Esteriores famous nil-pointer Celebrate in 2004.
She Got Me is Luca's 2nd #1 hit and his biggest hit ever in Switzerland. He had a #1 in 2012 with Don't Think About Me which also was a #1 in Germany and Austria. She Got Me didn't follow that up in those two countries.
