I love 'Vrag Naj Vzame'! That was the first time I watched the semi finals live so I suppose the songs from 2008 do have a nostalgic advantage for me, but I was gutted when that DNQ'd.
'Everybody' certainly isn't a favourite of mine, but it definitely deserved to outlive Marie N in terms of the winners! |

Ruth was incredible, definitely a favourite of 2014
She's got such a powerful presence.Everybody is tragic, my least favorite 21st century winner for sure until APD came along. |

Dancing in The Rain is nothing special really, I would put it below most of the other Spanish entries this decade.
I see you share my opinion on Leto Svet, not the worst thing ever, just a thing that exists and is strange but you do you, Estonian middle aged men. Far more palatable than the somewhat similar LT United. Oh and Flying The Flag is terrible and cringeworthy and had probably done more damage to our Eurovision attitude than any other of the woeful British efforts. |

Russia 2010 is one of the better Russian entries. Not even sorry. But then Mamo is lightyears better so that being out and ANY other Russian entries still being in is... not preferable.

That Azerbaijan entry was ATROCIOUS. I really think you’re being too kind. Utterly bizarre that it managed not only to qualify for the final but make the top 10? RIDICULOUS!
Belgian entry also rubbish. On the flip side I really like that Andorran entry as well as "Inje". |

Heh, to my mind, Day After Day is just rather pleasingly bizarre. Rather that than the soulless dull pop songs with zero identity they've been sending us lately.

"Skeletons" zero identity?? If anything that's had the most identity of any Azerbaijani entry!!
