How Poli didn’t qualify for final 🥲🥲🥲 she totally slayed 💅💅💅

I'm sad to find out that Dizzy isn't your last place anymore after your personal NF favorites are removed, lol. But really, I wouldn't put Latvia or Moldova or anything below it. Maybe Poland performance wise, but other than that...

Some last place, lol. Yes, 0 points are well-deserved. Staging was okay, though. And it's unexpected because I thought if you put Spain quite high last year, you're gonna rank this very high as well. But everyone's entitled to their own opinion, otherwise it'd be boring.

WOW! What an amazing top6!!! <3 I only miss Lithuania from that. I mean, if you could appreciate Portugal's ultra-subtle velvet why not Lithuania's too? But generally I'm all in for this ranking. And yes, Italy was the one and only ultra-clear winner! One of the best entries ever in Eurovision and definitely the best, most honest and most substantial anti-war song. I'll never forgive the juries for not supporting this. One of the biggest jury crimes ever. They had one job. The televote placed 3rd. If the juries did their job to stand for quality and gave it the perfectly deserved boost, it would have won.

Haha leaving Latvia aside (although it was a clear winner with no real competition for me) the rest is a monstrosity of ranking :p A bit traumatizing but still enjoyable video. While you kept saying how strong 2016 was. For me it's one of the weakest years since 2002.

Youre the only person I have seen which shares the opinion about Sergeys 2019 entry being much better than his previous

100% agree with Switzerland! Finally someone who feels the same way. Generally kudos for your content. Obviously I dont agree with everything, but I like reading your explanations, which are mostly cohersive Edit: France at 22. Feel yelled at

I must be deaf because to me EAEA sounds like in inconsistent crap

I so disagree with you about Croatia and I so agree about France. (Croatia had indeed a very well arranged video clip and the live performance didn't do any justice unfo)

This is the year that was actually a contest of "who is going to have the worst outfit among the rest all?" It's the year with the worst taste in clothes like since ever. Great exception the very winner Denmark, maybe this is why they won, they were visually as minimal as they could be.. and that made the whole difference.

Your comment about Hilary Clinton was hilarious

I don't quite get why The Moon Is Rising is THAT hated. Obviously it didn't work live at all and surprisingly her vocals were off constantly, but the song is great. I even prefer it over Still Breathing. With a good performance, I think it would've qualified and maybe achieved an average result in the final.

Agree with Lisa Andreas. A timeless classic. But Bosnias song is rather boring. It’s not made for an international audience.

My top 10 with some comments: 10th | Belarus | It's a fine entry personally, I quite like his voice and the performance is good as well. 9th | Bulgaria | It's so different and out there with a weird voice but I love it, greatly performed, well sung and well done. 8th | Serbia | Definitely a deserved winner, despite it not being my winner. Powerful, vocally perfect. Great entry. 7th | Norway | A very random entry to have in my top 10 I know, but it's just such a danceable song, Guri is a great singer. The dress changes are cool as well. I really wish it qualified. 6th | Slovenia | Originally 4th, has dropped recently due to a couple of other favourites coming into it, but it's a great song, I usually love opera as well so yeah. 5th | Georgia | Was my winner until recently when I relistened to the year and realised Georgia is no longer my favourite, it's a great song, amazing debut for Georgia. 4th | Hungary | One of the two growers, I absolutely love Magdi's voice, the rasp in there is beautiful, the entire song is done extremely well. 3rd | Germany | The second grower, I never realised I liked jazz until this song, Roger was great, the song was great, everything about it is great. RIP Roger. 2nd | Finland | When I re-ranked 2007, Finland ended out on top, 1st, for 2 days. (Poor Finland), I still listen to this (along with Norway and Germany and 1st place) all the time, it's a brilliant rock song (and dare I say... better than 2006 and 2008 Finland) 1st | Bosnia & Herzegovina | This was 5th, jumped to 2nd and 2 days after becoming 2nd became my winner, I love everything about this entry, the dress, the stage, the vocals, the song itself. It's such a good entry, it definitely should've ended top 10. Running order may have killed it a little (it opened the final) but overall it did well and was amazing.

No one knew at the time how unique and great this year would be, with the rubbish that followed; it was the same after '12 and '17, long waits in the doldrem's afterwards, years with only 1-3 good songs that are forgotten now. Pretty fair selection; Swiss and Italy in my top three

Agree with Montinage, but Malta extremely underrated

My top 15 01. Ukraine 02. Austria 03. Hungary 04. Spain 05. Estonia 06. Romania 07. Greece 08. Israel 09. Ireland 10. Albania 11. Belarus 12. Armenia 13. North Macedonia 14. UK 15. Denmark

Rip Örs❤

Wtf this is like exactly my top, thats scary

honestly, probably share the same top 7 (in different order) + France, pretty good video and I understand most positions here

No matter what the televote says 10th place for Queen Iolanda was the best thing happening this year

Molly was 17 when she performed her song that night, she actually was the youngest Irish participant ever. And the song is so emotional, she felt what she was singing there, it's just absolutely gorgeous. Ireland really deserved most of their NQs, but "Playing with numbers" is one of their best attempts ever.

The best part about "I stand" is that she's literally just standing. Also Icebreaker supremacy❤

The worst thing about the Romania NQ is that she wasn't even close to qualifying. Like... this is so amazing! I still listen to that song regularly and she only came 13th...

Latvia appreciation❤ I genuinely think this was Latvia's best attempt between 2017 and 2023 when they always NQed. But she deserved to qualify. Her stage presence is amazing.
