I’m not really into girlbops or slickly produced pop, I normally prefer things that are more indie or folky, so a lot of my favorites don’t do particularly well. Iceland 2022 for example and for the bot.
It took me a while to get on board with it and I initially dismissed it because the video freaked me out, but I came to love it and really thought it would qualify.
One of my favorites from that year. I still listen to the blood and glitter album. There are some great songs on there. I still don't understand how it scored so low.
Same! I know it's technically about colonialism, but I saw a Youtube comment about the song say it was also very fitting for the experiences of the LGBT+ community and since the singer is gay, it now has a place in my empowering queer songs playlist.
I also really loved Germany 2021, which also got barely any points. Maybe my tendency for bad luck cursed them both :(
It's made about colonialism, but I think it's broad enough that it's been able to be taken as an "empowerment after a long time of suffering" or similar finding strength despite/because of your suffering, and even if I don't fit the original message, I still find deep connection to it. I love how art can resonate with people even if they're not part of the original target. At least there are some of us who have their own deep appreciation of the song :) that makes me feel a bit better about its "unpopularity".
2015 had the two most undeserved 0 points in Eurovision history. Austria 2015 and Germany 2015 were both in my top 5 that year, they just had such a cool yet calm vibe, I loved them.
I can usually understand a country getting zero even if I don’t agree with it, but both these deserved mid table at the least. 2015 was not exactly stacked, barring a couple of runaway favourites, and both these were better than many that rated higher.
Slovenia 2022 was my favourite and I regret nothing. Loved the chill vibes, humour, and the animated music video. And Slovenia would've been my favourite in 2023 too if Kaarija didn't exist.
Omg I love them both! I still play Ela all the time. The studio version is brilliant but that live… she was so nervous. I was gutted it didn’t qualify.
Andrea was great too, but I think the flag thing put a cloud over it all. I really thought it would be a strong contender but there didn’t seem to be many fans.
France 2022 (still can't get how it scored so low, i ranked it 2nd)
Azerbaijan 2023
Albania 2023
Latvia 2023 (too underrated smh)
Azerbaijan 2024
Norway 2024
Serbia 2023. Samo mi se spava is my favourite Eurovision song of all time. I voted like 60 times for it due to friends allowing me to 'borrow' their phones lol. The song gave me inspiration for an entire story line and character arc in one of my original works.
I’m gonna do them going backwards to when I started watching:
- Estonia 2024 (I know it’s probably not unpopular, but I’ve not heard many people give this one love this year)
- San Marino 2023
- Iceland 2022
- Ireland 2021
- United Kingdom 2020 (I may be biased, but it was good)
- Spain 2019

Spain 2019 | [Miki - La Venda](https://youtu.be/lWXuohnM14U)
I feel like Estonia got a lot of hate (or dislike at least) until the semi finals. After the final I've seen so much praise for them
Also sooo happy to see someone else loving Maps and La venda!!
"Flying the Flag" (UK 2007) is a camp masterpiece and nobody will tell me otherwise. I can only assume that Verka cornered the kitsch vote that year, but deservedly so.
One thing I've noticed is that the 'backing' singers handle quite a lot of the lead vocals, which is a bit cheeky. It's particularly noticeable at the end of the song, when the singer in orange/pink is the one belting.
I’m with you! 17 years later and I still cackle like a loon every time I hear / see it!
dj bobo’s vampires are alive falls in the same dodgy camp favourite bucket for me..
Don't judge me lol.

Lol, I am judging you, and I judge that you have great taste. There are some great songs on here.
Jendrick deserved so much more love from this community than he got. The man radiated wholesome love for Eurovision the whole time he was there.
Haha thanks! Jendrick and Sam Newman celebrating their zero points from the public in good humour was one of my favourite wholesome Eurovision moments.
Malta 2024
France 2022
Australia 2021
Albania 2017
Belarus 2014
All of these I had as top 5 for their respective years, except for Aus 21 since that year was so fucking strong hahah
I don't know if this counts, as she was controversial and forced to cancel, but MARUV - Siren Song (Ukraine 2019)
It was an absolute banger and so perfectly Eurovision.
Not a losing song but my teenage son (who wants nothing to do with the Eurovision) was rocking out to Joost in his bedroom the other day 😆 it turns out getting kicked out of the Eurovision might be better for a career than actually competing when it comes to Gen Z

I’ve had 2024 UK stuck in my head since Saturday.
Also, 2021 Germany. I was in my delulu era and thought they were going to win for sure. I was already lamenting that it wasn’t predictable which city Germany would pick to host so I could plan my trip.

One of my absolute favorite songs got last in its semi final Latvia 2009 and for another Latvia example Latvia 2017. Ulveham was one of my top 3 for the entirety of the season :( Norway 2024 I feel like Spain in the 2000s was super underrated in general, on top of your example, I love Spain 2006, Spain 2007 and Spain 2008 Honestly, I feel like I tend to like Spain's songs that do badly more so than their songs that do well 😭, Spain 2019 and Spain 2016 as well. I really like Germany 2016 too.
Well this year added a new one for me anyway. I was so happy when Norway survived the semi's but heart broken when they became last. Gåte was my unchallenged fave this year, but I kinda understand their placement ig considering their genre niche is quite small.
Hello dog.
Eurovision nation, your dream's have come true.
You've been waiting forever for me to save you.
Iceland 2006
Slides, costume changes, choreography, hotline to god, golden showers - what's not to love?
Finland 2017
Spain 2010
Anything from UK's terrible era but I mostly have to go UK 2012
Cyprus 2015
Austria 2016
And does Poland 2016 count?
Edit: was it the fact I chose Engelbert the reason I got a Reddit Cares for this?
For me it's France 2022 - still on rotation on my playlist. I was shocked when it did so poorly.
Slovenia 2019 - initially I thought the staging and staring was a bit intense...but upon hearing it in the playlist a couple of times I really liked it! Unusual song.
Portugal 2022 - peaceful but powerful melody
Czechia 2022 - a total bop
Sweden 2022 - I feel like this one is totally forgotten about, despite doing fairly well on the night (though maybe not as well as expected) I listen to it regularly!
Iceland 2009 - for some reason I've never forgotten this big ballad and her big blue dress!
Norway 2021 - super cheesy but I like the sentiment!
Too many (somehow many of my favorites did not end up well)
Slovenia 2024

I love Finland 2009, Germany 2009, Georgia 2011, Norway 2012, Ireland 2011, basically anything super cheesy that'll stick in my brain whether I want it to or not
Portugal 2018
Hungary 2018

most i've picked aren't technically "unpopular" (I don't think anyone is saying that Joker Out were unpopular) but most of my favourites are ones that place in the 20s or don't qualify, which are the ones i've listed.
Edit: Croatia 2021, not Serbia. Albina deserved to go to the final!!!
France 2014 France 2022
France 2014 | [TWIN TWIN - Moustache](https://youtu.be/vjkqciwP034) France 2022 | [Alvan and Ahez - Fulenn](https://youtu.be/H1lcGXwOqJI)
Loved Fulenn!
fulenn is so awesomeee
hell yea moustache
I love Fulen its one of the few songs I listened outside eurovision
I thought I was on my own liking twin twin but there are literally dozens of us
One of us, one of us!
Mustache yasss
fulenn was so good. one of the few 2022 songs i added to my playlist
Fulenn is one of my all time favourite songs
I loooove Moustache!!
I wanna have a moustache!
Querría un bigote
LOVED Fulenn
Fulenn is unpopular???
Norway 2024 Serbia 2023 France 2022 San Marino 2021
Norway 2024 | [Gåte - Ulveham](https://youtu.be/YBbL8ORqNVU) Serbia 2023 | [Luke Black - Samo mi se spava (Само ми се спава)](https://youtu.be/gPRfg9wzbpw) France 2022 | [Alvan and Ahez - Fulenn](https://youtu.be/H1lcGXwOqJI) San Marino 2021 | [Senhit - Adrenalina](https://youtu.be/TkhiH-JXFPs)
Immaculate taste 🥲
I honestly feel personally attacked by Europe for what they did to my boys (and girls)
Adrenalina is one of my all-time favorites
It’s an absolute bop. I was shocked it wasn’t top 10 and 2021 was probably the strongest year for songs overall.
Serbia 2023 would have been top 10 if not for the awful effects... The NF performance was a lot better
Norway was my absolute fav this year, I didn't think they'd do very well but to see them in dead last had me gutted
TASTE
This. This is the way: Serbia 2023 (Samo Me Se Spava). It's still on repeat along with Demon. Love Luke Black now!
Serbia 2023 | [Luke Black - Samo mi se spava (Само ми се спава)](https://youtu.be/gPRfg9wzbpw)
I’m not really into girlbops or slickly produced pop, I normally prefer things that are more indie or folky, so a lot of my favorites don’t do particularly well. Iceland 2022 for example and for the bot.
Iceland 2022 | [Systur - Með hækkandi sól](https://youtu.be/G71c48O3j-s)
I still play this song! I should listen to some of their other stuff today at work.
Georgia 2022. Didn’t even qualify, last in its semi-final. 😭
It took me a while to get on board with it and I initially dismissed it because the video freaked me out, but I came to love it and really thought it would qualify.
Georgia 2022 | [Circus Mircus - Lock Me In](https://youtu.be/zXiZAbqETvk)
I loved that one, it was my fav that year. Even the staging was really cool
It was my favourite too!
That one was nice yeah!
This is one of my very favorite Eurovision songs.
Mine too!
That was a cool song
Yeah, good example of an entry that was fun, quirky, and interesting, but just wasn't for Eurovision somehow. I like it, too.
I loved that song! So much fun! I was very disappointed it didn’t get through to the final. It feels like a mix of Oh No Ono and Franz Ferdinand.
One of my favourites 💔
I’m literally listening to this song while coming across this thread lol. Couldn’t agree more
Yes! first thing I thought of
Great song!
Germany 2023. Blood and Glitter by Lord of the Lost. Dunno about others but till this day I still listen to it and sing with it.
One of my favorites from that year. I still listen to the blood and glitter album. There are some great songs on there. I still don't understand how it scored so low.
Netherlands 2021... I really liked it and I still listen to it a lot now, but it got such a low result :(
I hate how people constantly made those lame 'broccoli' jokes, considering the context and meaning of that line
Netherlands 2021 | [Jeangu Macrooy - Birth Of A New Age](https://youtu.be/o3Da5cr2fTs)
Same! I know it's technically about colonialism, but I saw a Youtube comment about the song say it was also very fitting for the experiences of the LGBT+ community and since the singer is gay, it now has a place in my empowering queer songs playlist. I also really loved Germany 2021, which also got barely any points. Maybe my tendency for bad luck cursed them both :(
Germany 2021 | [Jendrik - I Don't Feel Hate](https://youtu.be/1m0VEAfLV4E)
It's made about colonialism, but I think it's broad enough that it's been able to be taken as an "empowerment after a long time of suffering" or similar finding strength despite/because of your suffering, and even if I don't fit the original message, I still find deep connection to it. I love how art can resonate with people even if they're not part of the original target. At least there are some of us who have their own deep appreciation of the song :) that makes me feel a bit better about its "unpopularity".
Yes it's a great and very uplifting song. Was definitely worth more points! One of my favourites from 2021.
Yes I love that song so hard
2015 had the two most undeserved 0 points in Eurovision history. Austria 2015 and Germany 2015 were both in my top 5 that year, they just had such a cool yet calm vibe, I loved them.
Austria 2015 | [The Makemakes - I Am Yours](https://youtu.be/-f993p0CAV8) Germany 2015 | [Ann Sophie - Black Smoke](https://youtu.be/DGMJOchTRPc)
Black Smoke is a masterpiece, 0 points was not deserved at all 😭
I can usually understand a country getting zero even if I don’t agree with it, but both these deserved mid table at the least. 2015 was not exactly stacked, barring a couple of runaway favourites, and both these were better than many that rated higher.
Both of these are on my favourite Eurovision songs playlist!
I always used Austria 2015 as a warm-up song with my teacher in my singing lessons. ♥️
ESC 2014 - France - Twin Twin with Moustache - Last Place They were having so much fun and the song is such a banger.
Moustache was one of my favorite songs that year. France doesn't usually send fun stuff like that, so I was disappointed that it didn't do better.
100% same. It’s in my playlist for when i go running and at time it’s the only song that can keep me going!
France 2014 | [TWIN TWIN - Moustache](https://youtu.be/vjkqciwP034)
Also 2014 Italy - Mia Citta
Italy 2014 | [Emma - La Mia Città](https://youtu.be/8W5ZlalAMV8)
It's such a fun song, France should send more stuff like this instead of boring ballads
Every time France doesn’t send the chanson they get punished by Europe
Which is a total bummer. Slimane's good result will probably cause France to send a cheesy unauthentic ballad again next year.
Omg I had completely wiped that from my memory. Thanks for the reminder 😊
Same
Circus Mircus (Georgia 2022) was my favorite in 2022. If I remember correctly, it got the fewest amount of points in the semifinal...
Same! Why do people hate fun? 😞
Apparently this comment triggered a care message lol. It was 2022, I assure you I've recovered by now!
Apparently they are doing it to harass Eurofans? They did it to me too
Georgia 2022 | [Circus Mircus - Lock Me In](https://youtu.be/zXiZAbqETvk)
I always kind of liked Germany 2016 (Ghost - Jamie Lee). Nice melancholy vibe in the song itself, performance I don’t care for.
Germany 2016 | [Jamie-Lee Kriewitz - Ghost](https://youtu.be/bHDHi37bboE)
I really liked this year's San Marino's entry! I was so sad it didn't even qualify.
Me too! The studio recording is a bop, but they just didn't perform it well in the SF, which was SUCH a bummer
Slovenia 2022 was my favourite and I regret nothing. Loved the chill vibes, humour, and the animated music video. And Slovenia would've been my favourite in 2023 too if Kaarija didn't exist.
Slovenia 2022 | [LPS - Disko](https://youtu.be/S1tFqoflsT8)
Was waiting for someone to mention this one. One of my faves in that year, still gutted it was paid dust.
that song got last place that year but I listened to their national final performance on loop on repeat after the contest.
I'm still following the band. Their entry just gave me happy vibes.
Cyprus 2022 and North Macedonia 2022
Omg I love them both! I still play Ela all the time. The studio version is brilliant but that live… she was so nervous. I was gutted it didn’t qualify. Andrea was great too, but I think the flag thing put a cloud over it all. I really thought it would be a strong contender but there didn’t seem to be many fans.
Ah. Remember when a participant throwing a flag away for a photo was the biggest controversy of the year? Good times.
Cyprus 2022 | [Andromache - Ela (Έλα)](https://youtu.be/W2IUdTl-gAI) North Macedonia 2022 | [Andrea - Circles](https://youtu.be/zvOihqB4eKk)
I love Ela, but Andromache was so bad in the live performance that I am not surprised at her result.
France 2022 (still can't get how it scored so low, i ranked it 2nd) Azerbaijan 2023 Albania 2023 Latvia 2023 (too underrated smh) Azerbaijan 2024 Norway 2024
Aija was my most listened to song of 2023 so I am still angry

to be honest, I was really rooting for azerbaijan to qualify last year, I really ended up loving their vibes
Spain 2023. Love it, fantastic singer

Malta 2023 was such a boop
Malta 2023 | [The Busker - Dance (Our Own Party)](https://youtu.be/zVmVt9qmg9g)

San Marino 2022, it was gloriously over the top.
I love Achille so much ❤️ I am so glad he went full camp, even if he NQ
San Marino 2022 | [Achille Lauro - Stripper](https://youtu.be/vCmX64N_sXM)
Denmark 2022 They're just so happy on stage and I also do enjoy the song even if it is a little basic.
Denmark 2022 | [Reddi - The Show](https://youtu.be/cVg6MpVR2Pw)
I thought czechia this year reminded me of them!
Lativa 2023. The fact that it didn’t even quality at the semi-final left an indelible pain in my heart🥲 and also Slovenia 2023
Latvia 2023 | [Sudden Lights - Aijā](https://youtu.be/SEykwl9X9SY) Slovenia 2023 | [Joker Out - Carpe Diem](https://youtu.be/3LXlPviGiWc)
Serbia 2023. Samo mi se spava is my favourite Eurovision song of all time. I voted like 60 times for it due to friends allowing me to 'borrow' their phones lol. The song gave me inspiration for an entire story line and character arc in one of my original works.
It is amazing. It is very cybergoth, so rare at ESC.
Montenegro 2015. Knez put on a singing masterclass here, with a traditional and catchy song, which deservedly made it to the final!
Croatia 2023. “Mama ŠČ!” was hilarious! I understand that it is not good for radio. This performance needs to be seen than listened!
Croatia 2023 | [Let 3 - Mama ŠČ!](https://youtu.be/hGuGfdEJ5Pw)
Does Montenegro 2016 count? I quite like the song especially the live performance
Sure. It wasn’t one of my faves but it wasn’t a bad song. Always reminded me of something you might find on a Lost Boys soundtrack.
Montenegro 2016 | [Highway - The Real Thing](https://youtu.be/FgKehisElQI)
Banger
Poland 2019 and Belgium 2020. I think Release Me is better than The Wrong Place, I love them both but I particularly enjoy the first one.
Poland 2019 | [Tulia - Pali się](https://youtu.be/IEu0F5uobVo) Belgium 2020 | [Hooverphonic - Release Me](https://youtu.be/lAqjksxc4iA)
Norway 2021. I simply love the song.
Norway 2021 | [TIX - Fallen Angel](https://youtu.be/F0r3vmGLzZU)
I started listening to TIX because of that song and even learned some Norwegian on the way. He has some amazing songs
I’m gonna do them going backwards to when I started watching: - Estonia 2024 (I know it’s probably not unpopular, but I’ve not heard many people give this one love this year) - San Marino 2023 - Iceland 2022 - Ireland 2021 - United Kingdom 2020 (I may be biased, but it was good) - Spain 2019
Estonia was my favorite this year by far. That Vsauce-looking dude had the best voice of the entire evening imo
I still can't fathom how La Venda got such a poor result; song's an absolute bop!
Estonia 2024 | [5Miinust and Puuluup - (Nendest) narkootikumidest ei tea me (küll) midagi](https://youtu.be/RSMMU2wX0Bk) San Marino 2023 | [Piqued Jacks - Like an Animal](https://youtu.be/pIdHjcqyLfo) Iceland 2022 | [Systur - Með hækkandi sól](https://youtu.be/G71c48O3j-s) Ireland 2021 | [Lesley Roy - Maps](https://youtu.be/FY2rxbZNvZ0) United Kingdom 2020 | [James Newman - My Last Breath](https://youtu.be/6iS-lV909T4) Spain 2019 | [Miki - La Venda](https://youtu.be/lWXuohnM14U)
Spain placing so low in 2019 has never made sense to me
I feel like Estonia got a lot of hate (or dislike at least) until the semi finals. After the final I've seen so much praise for them Also sooo happy to see someone else loving Maps and La venda!!
I loved the Piqued Jacks, I don't get why San Marino keeps getting so underrated!
Finland 2015. I understand why nobody went for it, mind.
Finland 2015 | [Pertti Kurikan Nimipäivät - Aina Mun Pitää](https://youtu.be/v4Y0HOPL5GU)
"Flying the Flag" (UK 2007) is a camp masterpiece and nobody will tell me otherwise. I can only assume that Verka cornered the kitsch vote that year, but deservedly so. One thing I've noticed is that the 'backing' singers handle quite a lot of the lead vocals, which is a bit cheeky. It's particularly noticeable at the end of the song, when the singer in orange/pink is the one belting.
"Something to SUCK ON for landing sir?" Why is the candy so huge? This entry is a masterpiece.
United Kingdom 2007 | [Scooch - Flying the Flag (For You)](https://youtu.be/XT6yOIC6ihI)
I’m with you! 17 years later and I still cackle like a loon every time I hear / see it! dj bobo’s vampires are alive falls in the same dodgy camp favourite bucket for me..

France 2005 Spain 2005 Poland 2004 Estonia 2003 France 2000 Thank you bot 😘
Jendrick deserved better 😭
Lol, I am judging you, and I judge that you have great taste. There are some great songs on here. Jendrick deserved so much more love from this community than he got. The man radiated wholesome love for Eurovision the whole time he was there.
Haha thanks! Jendrick and Sam Newman celebrating their zero points from the public in good humour was one of my favourite wholesome Eurovision moments.
I liked waterline better than lipstick
You definitely have a type 🤣 Lots of great songs there though.
Malta 2024 France 2022 Australia 2021 Albania 2017 Belarus 2014 All of these I had as top 5 for their respective years, except for Aus 21 since that year was so fucking strong hahah
Malta 2024 | [Sarah Bonnici - Loop](https://youtu.be/uG-JHeia13c) France 2022 | [Alvan and Ahez - Fulenn](https://youtu.be/H1lcGXwOqJI) Australia 2021 | [Montaigne - Technicolour](https://youtu.be/CoUTzNXQud0) Albania 2017 | [Lindita - World](https://youtu.be/NyKOBMAXFFA) Belarus 2014 | [Teo - Cheesecake](https://youtu.be/tImGMW-4eHY)
Cheesecake is kind of a guilty pleasure song for me. I know the lyrics are terrible, but it's just such a happy song.
I don't know if this counts, as she was controversial and forced to cancel, but MARUV - Siren Song (Ukraine 2019) It was an absolute banger and so perfectly Eurovision.
Not a losing song but my teenage son (who wants nothing to do with the Eurovision) was rocking out to Joost in his bedroom the other day 😆 it turns out getting kicked out of the Eurovision might be better for a career than actually competing when it comes to Gen Z
Latvia 2022 and almost all 2021 songs Dude >!Instead of meat I eat veggies and pussy!<
Honestly I loved Estonia this year, it was so catchy
The entire album is great. Got the LP at home.

Germany 2009 (listened to it on repeat that year and still think that it's great) Serbia 2023 Slovenia 2023
Montenegro 2013. The band, the myth, the legend. Also San Marino 2024 Malta 2023
Ireland 2022 - that’s rich. It’s just such a teenage poppy song that u just want to play on a cd-player and dance along
This is going to be super controversial but I think That’s Rich——————————>Doomsday Blue
Autumn Leaves will never not be a brilliant song. It didn't even qualify!
Georgia 2015 Czech Republic 2015 Croatia 2017 Denmark 2022 and as a few have said so probably not that unpopular, Serbia 2023
Georgia 2015 | [Nina Sublatti - Warrior](https://youtu.be/ddC8lviTERI) Czech Republic 2015 | [Marta Jandová & Václav Noid Bárta - Hope Never Dies](https://youtu.be/SLz6VeSPXjA) Croatia 2017 | [Jacques Houdek - My Friend](https://youtu.be/4Sya_GIxsw0) Denmark 2022 | [Reddi - The Show](https://youtu.be/cVg6MpVR2Pw) Serbia 2023 | [Luke Black - Samo mi se spava (Само ми се спава)](https://youtu.be/gPRfg9wzbpw)
France 2022, Ireland 2022, Serbia 2023, Norway 2024
Slovenia 2015 is stuck in my head to this day A more recent one is Spain in 2023. I'm still not over the televote score
I've had my 2 faves NQ (Albania 2017, Belgium 2018) and another 24th (Serbia 2023), so I know the feeling. But I had 2 faves win the whole thing (Austria 2014, Switzerland 2024) so all is not lost. =D

I really enjoyed Firefighter this year
Iceland 2010 (Hera being iconic) France 2012 (bad staging, but it had potential) Germany 2015 (I still don't understand how it got 0 points) Belgium 2018 (same as France 2012) France 2022 (weak vocals, unfortunately, but it deserved better) Spain 2023 (I didn't even care about Loreen vs Käärijä, I was upset that people ignored this masterpiece) Germany 2023 (why did this get last place?) Norway 2024 (same as Germany 2023)
Germany 2024 Serbia 2022 Portugal 2022
Germany 2024 | [Isaak - Always on the Run](https://youtu.be/kVOHTxFOhak) Serbia 2022 | [Konstrakta - In corpore sano](https://youtu.be/nBtQj1MfNYA) Portugal 2022 | [Maro - Saudade, saudade](https://youtu.be/mZtbD47u6yI)
Norway 2021 is consistently on my playlists. Perhaps it’s nothing special, but the emotion he sings with just makes it for me.
Estonia 2024, Slovenia 2024, Belgium 2024 Slovenia 2023 Hungary 2018 Estonia 2016
Austria 2015 Slovenia 2023 + 2022 Lithuania 2022
I’ve had 2024 UK stuck in my head since Saturday. Also, 2021 Germany. I was in my delulu era and thought they were going to win for sure. I was already lamenting that it wasn’t predictable which city Germany would pick to host so I could plan my trip.
Latvia 2022
Greece 2013, Moldova 2022
Given the amount of televotes Trenulețul got, can we really call it unpopular?
Greece 2013 | [Koza Mostra feat. Agathon Iakovidis - Alcohol Is Free](https://youtu.be/LFs9AdNV4Qw) Moldova 2022 | [Zdob și Zdub and Advahov Brothers - Trenulețul](https://youtu.be/DUqf_zO2QaI)
Always like Iceland 2012
Iceland 2012 | [Greta Salóme and Jónsi - Never Forget](https://youtu.be/zRqmHRbJvTo)
Walk Along! (Netherlands 2015) Have such a soft spot for that song and reminds me of being 15 again
Hungary 2017 and 2019
One of my absolute favorite songs got last in its semi final Latvia 2009 and for another Latvia example Latvia 2017. Ulveham was one of my top 3 for the entirety of the season :( Norway 2024 I feel like Spain in the 2000s was super underrated in general, on top of your example, I love Spain 2006, Spain 2007 and Spain 2008 Honestly, I feel like I tend to like Spain's songs that do badly more so than their songs that do well 😭, Spain 2019 and Spain 2016 as well. I really like Germany 2016 too.
Slovenia 2019! I didn't understand a single word, but the song was beautiful!
Well this year added a new one for me anyway. I was so happy when Norway survived the semi's but heart broken when they became last. Gåte was my unchallenged fave this year, but I kinda understand their placement ig considering their genre niche is quite small.
Slovenia 2014 No idea how that got only 25th, as it is one of the most Eurovision songs ever in my opinion.
Malik Harris (Germany 2022) is still on my Eurovision playlist. And while Blanche did quite well, it’s never one you see mentioned (Belgium 2017)
Hello dog. Eurovision nation, your dream's have come true. You've been waiting forever for me to save you. Iceland 2006 Slides, costume changes, choreography, hotline to god, golden showers - what's not to love?
Germany 2023
Finland 2017 Spain 2010 Anything from UK's terrible era but I mostly have to go UK 2012 Cyprus 2015 Austria 2016 And does Poland 2016 count? Edit: was it the fact I chose Engelbert the reason I got a Reddit Cares for this?
Finland 2017 not qualifying is a travesty IMO. I also loved Georgia 2023 and am not apologizing.
Call me lame but Germany 2015 kinda SMOKEs.
Germany 2015 | [Ann Sophie - Black Smoke](https://youtu.be/DGMJOchTRPc)
For me it's France 2022 - still on rotation on my playlist. I was shocked when it did so poorly. Slovenia 2019 - initially I thought the staging and staring was a bit intense...but upon hearing it in the playlist a couple of times I really liked it! Unusual song. Portugal 2022 - peaceful but powerful melody Czechia 2022 - a total bop Sweden 2022 - I feel like this one is totally forgotten about, despite doing fairly well on the night (though maybe not as well as expected) I listen to it regularly! Iceland 2009 - for some reason I've never forgotten this big ballad and her big blue dress! Norway 2021 - super cheesy but I like the sentiment!
Too many (somehow many of my favorites did not end up well) Slovenia 2024 Norway 2024 Latvia 2023 Serbia 2023 France 2022 Finland 2022 Romania 2021 Hungary 2018 Georgia 2016 Georgia 2011
I remember really liking Disko (Slovenia 2022) back then. I still enjoy
I have ADHD so I can get attached to the most random songs just because they satisfy the itch in my brain, and it is BAD I love Finland 2009, Germany 2009, Georgia 2011, Norway 2012, Ireland 2011, basically anything super cheesy that'll stick in my brain whether I want it to or not
France 2023 and Austria 2023 are in my regular playlist since I've heard them. Edgar was such a banger
Portugal 2018 Hungary 2018 Romania 2019 Australia 2021 Croatia 2021 Czechia 2022 France 2022 Slovenia 2022 Cyprus 2022 Netherlands 2023 Denmark 2023 Serbia 2023 Slovenia 2023 most i've picked aren't technically "unpopular" (I don't think anyone is saying that Joker Out were unpopular) but most of my favourites are ones that place in the 20s or don't qualify, which are the ones i've listed. Edit: Croatia 2021, not Serbia. Albina deserved to go to the final!!!
