Top 11 Worst Eurovision Songs

#eurovision #eurovision2024 #eurovisionsongcontest
In spite of it's name the Eurovision Song Contest isn't the place to go to for musical quality.
In fact it's where music taste goes to die.

5. I Don't Feel Hate - Jendrik
4. Here we go - PeR

Silvia Night is the best troll ever and should have won her year

[@geezenation]

I couldn't stand it myself

[@David_debil]

Euro Neuro was better troll 🔥

[@Tutel3.0]

​@@geezenationyeah after it was revealed she was assaulting other contestants even the ebu and she didn't get disqualified unlike Joost Klein

[@in_wino_veritas]

Well, you can give some of those listed song a benefit of a doubt as they're joke entries and not meant to be taken seriously, Portugal 2011,for example.

[@geezenation]

yeah that's a fair point

[@nocturne7371]

Most of these entries are form the time when Televoting dominated the results. Low point was in 2008. Last years protests after Sweden's win over the Televote and wanting to abolish the Juries should see this video. This makes me vertain that Martin Österdahl will NEVER get rid of the Juries. He does not want to go back to the quality of the 00s. He's even said so (in a round about way)

[@zebrastripedyt6050]

how did illusion, flying the flag, cry baby and celebrate ALL not make this list????

[@geezenation]

I actually quiet like cry baby, the singing wasn't great but the song wasn't bad, yeah flying the flag was close to making, will have to relisten to the other two can't remember those

[@user-so1wx6vp4e]

“Pokušaj” that song talks about the love that was lost in one nation (Yugoslavs) after the war and the reconciliation of those newly created republics

[@geezenation]

Fair play, as a statement it might be great, but as a piece of music I found it terrible

[@ggoddf5889]

Pokusaj is such a great song. i really cant understand this ranking

[@geezenation]

fair play, it properly irritated me especially the opening

[@richln9682]

Leto Svet is Balticese for Let us sweat. Fact.

[@ofs82]

NGL there's a bunch of my absolute favourites here. Pokušaj is a pocket symphony with a gloriously absurd performance that is pure Eurovision greatness. A Luta e Alegria's verse is bollocks, but the chorus is great, catchy Brazilian 70s-inspired fun. I watch for entertainment, and I'd rather Portugal send that than Salvador Sobral being very serious but (whisper it because lots of people adore that performance) very boring. And Silvia Night is the best Eurovision entry of all time. There have been countless iconic three-minute performances in Eurovision history, but hers is the only performance that lasted an entire week.

[@geezenation]

fair play just different tastes, haha yeah that's a good point get Silvia Night involved in wrestling or youtube boxing she'd be a great heel

[@josephnewsome2935]

who else feels like the big 5 count as bribing the competition?

[@geezenation]

pretty much

[@WonHakWoon]

Thank you for not including Austria 2012. I know people hate it, but I absolutely love it. I do agree with the list though, all of these are shit!

[@geezenation]

yeah that one was bad, it just missed out, that'd probably be my number 12 haha, cheers :)

[@zeprfrew]

Israel 2000. Absolutely horrid.

[@geezenation]

Very true, that was close to making my list

[@Cersei27]

I'm from Israel, and I agree!

[@IsMiseAnthony]

I loved I Don’t Feel Hate!

[@matrix129]

Totally agree!

[@lovelypolishperson5566]

Where is Magdalena Tul with "Jestem" from Poland (ESC 2011)? She got the worst result for Poland ever (and that itself says a lot...)

[@geezenation]

That's a good shout will have to bear that one in mind if I do another top 11 :)

[@Dim4323]

Also none from the uk?

[@geezenation]

Yeah I considered a few uk ones, but we're usually more generic than awful, none of them stood out in particular

[@lightleopard957]

pretty surprised he didnt include czech republic 2009

[@geezenation]

I can't remember that one will have to another look, there's enough shite Eurovision for a few lists haha

[@ChaoticShelly]

How can you forget Azerbaijan 2008 Eurovision entry. Nightmareish!

[@geezenation]

yeah that's a great point, to be fair there's enough eurovision dross to do another top 11 so i'll keep that song in mind

[@josephnewsome2935]

@@geezenationit’s funny because one of the singers was giving his all in the singing while the other couldn’t hold a tune

[@ChaoticShelly]

@@geezenation It's still the one that jumps straight to my head when I think of some of the worst songs/performances haha

[@Bandido894]

That was one of their best!

[@zsedzz]

Yeah, most of these are from 00's, more or less the Dark Ages of Eurovision 😂 a lot of great songs in this year's competition again, been the case for a while already

[@geezenation]

yeah its been better recently, i'm waiting till Eurovision night to hear the songs for the first time, always like to be surprised

[@Kashim666]

whadde hadde dudde is a legend

[@geezenation]

the outfits were legendary

[@krystianszymczak8889]

Today they will be in top 3...World go stupid 😂

[@geezenation]

Australia's in Eurovision it's all mad haha

[@darraghgregory1269]

The countdown is on , where almost at eurovision week 🙌

[@geezenation]

very true, its gonna be the first time I'm gonna watching any of eurovision abroad, hopefully vienna do some viewing parties

[@darraghgregory1269]

@@geezenation oh lovely enjoy that I'm in Ireland so I'll be watching all 3 shows 😊

[@geezenation]

@@darraghgregory1269 will do, I'll report all about it on my travel videos, nice Ireland the most successful Eurovision country (I think) :)

[@darraghgregory1269]

@geezenation yes with 7 wins on par with Sweden so we need another win to over take them

[@geezenation]

@@darraghgregory1269 ah yeah forgot about Sweden

[@JotaEncina]

I feel spaniardly proud of that first position 😂 mamma.... The pleasure of cringe....

[@geezenation]

hahaha if you're gonna do it might as well do it better than anyone else

[@Bandido894]

What Pokusaj and DJ Bobo doing in this list?? Based on who's opinion???

[@geezenation]

just my opinion

[@Bandido894]

@@geezenation Would then put also DQ from Denmark 2007 with a similar type cheap drag performance, non innovate lyrics and weak vocals. 😉

[@geezenation]

@@Bandido894 that's a good one if I make another list 🙂

[@Dim4323]

Wolves of the sea is a fun sea shanty song

[@geezenation]

Ah it's horrid, that chorus is so annoying

[@felx_is7133]

YOU HAVE 2 OF MY WINNERS IN THIS LIST HAHAHAH (1980 & 2006)

[@geezenation]

hahaha fair play

[@BrewanSomeTea]

Don't forget that Stefan Raab also helped Germany get their win in 2010!!

[@geezenation]

ah yeah just looked it up, didn't know that :)

[@BrewanSomeTea]

@@geezenation And it's funny how nowadays Stefan Raab is the only person who seems to be able to get Germany a good result

[@geezenation]

@@BrewanSomeTea Get him in the euros coaching staff haha

[@stephenrobinson8244]

Some songs are so bad they are good. It's the ones that are bad and stay bad that I expect on this list 😂

[@stephenrobinson8244]

I have mf taste in music so bet I bop to some ahah

[@geezenation]

Yeah that was my thinking, to be fair since making this list leto svet has grown on me haha

[@user-ml1by8bt5k]

Do it for your lover wasnt that bad, just basic. It was the vocals that killed it

[@geezenation]

I hated it so much, maybe congratulations was worst, to be fair

[@user-ml1by8bt5k]

@@geezenation yeah congratulations might be the worst song ever sent to eurovision 🤣

[@in_wino_veritas]

It was definitely better than other Spanish entries, eg 2018. Or 2008, 2004, 2019, 2021, 2023, so many bad entries. 1999, 2005 and 2006 weren't great either, but slightly better than 2017. Yes, they, the UK and Germany had to level up their game. I really want tbem to compete in the semi-final. Germany 2021 is horrendous as well, so were their efforts in 2016, 2017, 2019 and lots of stuff before that, especially from the language restriction area, although it's not their fault that their language sucks.

[@eurotiggesc]

2 songs in and no, crap countdown....more clickbait than anything else.

[@lordhagen8301]

Latvia 2021 - horrible

[@StressMats]

Israel 2000, beautiful piece of art

[@geezenation]

it was certainly a piece of something haha

[@astrobrosky]

papa pinguin isn't THAT bad

[@geezenation]

Oh it is, oh it is haha

[@dramaticScar]

i'll be honest... yes our song in 2011 was awful... but was a complete troll... the song is about standing up to the crisis in the Portuguese government... But at least even though they are a comedy act... I feel better represented as a Portuguese with this song rather than the craptacular entry we sent in 2019... I REALLY DISLIKE THAT ENTRY

[@roberto-qy2ys]

Dishonorable Mention: Naviband "Story of my life"

[@noyou1320]

Israel 2000 and North Macedonia 2000 are some of the worst songs in the world, not just in Eurovision 🤣

[@geezenation]

yeah the israel one was terrible, i can't remember the north macedonia one will have to take a look :)

[@Elderflowerpunch]

Good lawd. Don't remind me. Lol.
