description: "Thomas Forstner is an Austrian singer who has represented Austria in the Eurovision Song Contest twice. In 1989 he performed \"Nur ein Lied\" in Lausanne, giving Austria the fifth place — their highest position since their last win in 1966 and until Austria's win in 2014. Forstner was selected to represent Austria again in Rome in 1991. His entry, \"Venedig im Regen\" came in last at 22nd, failing to score a single point."
