May 21, 20241 yr Author 15. Bonnie Tyler - Believe In Me (United Kingdom - 2013) -agn-ERgTXA "Believe In Me" is my favourite song from Bonnie Tyler.
May 22, 20241 yr Author 14. Monika Linkyte and Vaidas Baumila - This Time (Lithuania - 2015) 1Cqk5ZdrfSk Sadly, but my favourite country selected a wonderful song only once. We could have many amazing Lithuanian entries - I Dangu (2009), I Will Break Free (2011), Sacrifice (2017), Perfect (2024). Edited May 22, 20241 yr by Last Dreamer
May 22, 20241 yr Of course not Harve, you have to be a woman AND white and preferably blonde to make it
May 22, 20241 yr Some very good songs in this countdown, including some very unjust non-qualifiers. "Lako je sve" and "Verona" were massive shocks for me when they didn't make it through. "Story of my Life" is so much better than "Maps" for me, it's sad that the latter is the one that Lesley actually got to compete with (although realistically I think her vocal was the biggest hindrance) Hope "The Social Network Song" is top 10 :D

Valentina is like a mascot of her country. :heart: Can we name any other famous residents of San Marino ?
May 22, 20241 yr Author Are you only allowed on this list if ur a woman Yes, for all my charts. In male category # 1s are : 2000s : LT United - We Are The Winners 2010s : Engelbert Humperdinck - Love Will Set You Free

Story if My Life is definitely the one I prefer now.

May 23, 20241 yr Author I really like this from Bonnie, its a very underrated entry but i still enjoy it alot. In comparison with other countries UK was good enough in 2012-2017 years.
May 23, 20241 yr Author 12. Scooch - Flying The Flag (For You) (United Kingdom - 2007) XT6yOIC6ihI 12th and last UK win in my Eurovision yearly rankings (1957, 1969, 1977, 1978, 1980, 1981, 1983, 1985, 1991, 1996, 2002, 2007). Germany and Netherlands shared a second place with six wins for both countries. Obviously YVA performance in Lithuanian Eurovision pre-selection 2009 year with "I Dangu" was inspired by Scooch.

May 23, 20241 yr Author Some very good songs in this countdown, including some very unjust non-qualifiers. Seven non-qualifiers are in my top 10.
May 23, 20241 yr Some big faves here like Playing With Fire, Bonnie Tyler, Come Back, satellite, the flying Aussie Woman, Texas Lightning, and some others. No idea who is going top top your list though...! :D
May 23, 20241 yr Author No idea who is going top top your list though...! How it's possible ? I said many times before in different topics who is my # 1 favourite. Also there is a big spoiler, which I even didn't try to hide. :)
May 23, 20241 yr Suspect a Latvian song in the thread subtitle might be on top. I'll guess along with Valentina in the top three. Satellite is still one of my favourite winners, no bells or whistles or fancy staging, she just turned up and sang a great song that was so good it was already a big hit before the contest in many countries. Did you check the new Scooch song: a9mfQ8H39e0 It's out on streaming and download services too.

It's hilarious that 14 (!!!) years after the contest most comments under her video on Youtube belongs to angry Turks. :lol: Thanks for Scooch link, need to listen it.

May 23, 20241 yr Author 10. Anna Bergendahl - This Is My Life (Sweden - 2010) 5P1neQKN-1k Anna and Lena are always back to back in my ESC rankings. It was the one from the most closest battles for # 1 in yearly Eurovision ranking. Like many my favourites Anna didn't qualified into the final, but it's Sweden (the country which almost each Eurovision fan love), how it was possible ? :(
