Only Teardrops is the debut album of the Danish singer-songwriter Emmelie de Forest. The album was released on May 6, 2013 on Universal Music. In late March she signed a contract with Universal Music. The song of the same name won the Eurovision Song Contest 2013 for Denmark.
Owing to her status as Eurovision winner, the album's release attracted a number of reviews from Eurovision fan sites. James Sayer of ESC Views gave it a mixed review, saying that "there is nothing wrong with any of the individual songs, there’s just not a great deal which leaps out of the realms of the ordinary". Angus Quinn of Wiwi Bloggs was of the opinion that "Only Teardrops gets it right most of the time and seems to respect the authenticity of the artist".
