My personal winners 2014 - Austria 2015 - Italy 2016 - my least favourite Eurovision, probably the uk 2017 - Bulgaria 2018 - Italy 2019 - Netherlands 2020 - Norway (Switzerland close 2nd) 2021 - Sweden 2022 - Norway 2023 - Finland 2024 - Lithuania
Oh my gosh, I loved Beautiful Mess! I felt bad for Kristian Kostov, he was so young and really felt like he'd let his country down. He's said it was actually a very hard experience. But I hope he might come back! I love his voice. But that song was just beautiful to me. I also loved Toy. I think I"ve mentioned in about every Eurovision forum I've participated that I don't generally pay much mind to "rock" songs, and had a bunch of other favorites the year Maneskin won....so I was so upset they won! But then I watched a bunch of their old videos....I"ve been pretty obsessed ever since. LOL! Very validating to hear your take on Spain 2022.
I also love beautiful mess, when I first heard it thought it was a winner, Atmospheric and Powerful, great driving song was gonna be my wedding song before the break up (Not sad, didn't work out)
14 - Finland - a lot of these are retro but like many a lot of good songs that year. 15 - Belgium - it was orginally Sweden but again love many songs. 16 - ohh France - but love Ukraine, Bulgaria and many others. 17 - Hungary - love Italy and Moldova too 18 - it was Israel its now Albania but again love many 19 - Italy 21 - Italy 22 - Estonia 23 - Finland, was Moldova orginally 24 - Switzerland - was orginally Croatia, love Ireland and France too. I tend to have a lot of favs so its not usually a ride or die situation - kinda was for Italy 21 though.
My personal winners almost never win 😂 this year my favs were the UK 🇬🇧 & the Netherlands 🇳🇱 one got disqualified, the other got 0 points from the public. It always happens to me every year 😂
Just realised I love Stefania. My personal fav were: 2024 🇬🇧 🇳🇱 2023 🇬🇧 🇱🇹 2022 Sam 🇬🇧, Channel 🇪🇸 Snap 🇦🇲 🇳🇴 🇪🇪 . 2022 was a strong year. 2021 🇸🇲 Adrenalinaaaa, didn’t watch it as my country 🇦🇲was not there due to war 🥲 but later came across the song accidentally 2020 🇧🇾 just love this song 🇨🇭 2018 🇮🇪 🇦🇺 2017 🇪🇪 2016 🇷🇺 🇦🇹 🇫🇷 2015 🇪🇪 (Goodbye to yesterday) 2014 🇦🇲 🇦🇹 😂 turns out I have some interesting patterns I have never noticed before 😂 much love from Armenia 🇦🇲
I'd have well miffed off if Sweden won in 14. 15 - hard to say but i still maintain Heroes is overhated and better that than effing Russia. If you're interested Connor's Eurovision channel community has Heroes in 7th and the Grootyvision watachalong community voted it into 6th. Both agreed with you about Estonia being the best song. I'll tick the anyone but Russia box. 17 - Italy are rubbish stagers - they just don't stick the landing staging wise except for Maneskin who were lightning in a bottle and its relatively easy to stage a rock band. 18 - hard disagree - Toy is a lot more marmite but Fuego is more basic but well done. I can't help thinking Toy's critics are just more vocal although politics of course have an influence. 19 - i dont mind Arcade but i think Soldi was a better song. That said the Dutch did a great job and hadn't won in good old time and its a popular winner. Italy would win the next contest. Mahmood is doing fine without winning. 21 - cettainly the best top three until this year. I do agree Switzerland has dated better than France. 22 - idk about winning but Stefania would have done well even without the war. I'm glad you agree it was the right winner. 23 - 💯 with you here man 24 - yup - seen so many people reacting to this positively, i love both Switzerland and Croatia.

The juries were less keen on Conchita than the televoters - a lot of the Eastern European juries blanked her.
