Eurovision: Top 25 Returnees Who Did Better in Their Subsequent Attempts

  • Happy new year everyone! Today, we will be looking at some Eurovision artists who competed again and did better than their previous attempts.
    There are more or less 200 artists who competed at least twice at the song contest. However, this statistic only includes those who competed as a lead artist and returned again as a lead artist or a member of a duo or band. In other words, this excludes those returnees who first became a backing singer and later competed as a lead artist or vice versa.
    I adopted the formula of @clarinetmoonesc in calculating the ranking of these entries. I highly recommend watching his videos for more Eurovision statistics.
    Enjoy!

    Hello everyone! It seems that there might be a confusion as to why there are returning artists who were not included in this video. I apologize for the confusion.
    I wrote in the description box that I adopted the formula of ESC Clarinet Moon in ranking these entries; thus, the entries that you see in the video are STATISTICALLY the best returning entries based on their previous attempt.
    I’ll just be providing a spreadsheet so that you may have a visualization on how I did the math. Again, big thanks to ESC Clarinet Moon for the formula.
    Here's the spreadsheet link: docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1InkwYkahs2XdBrBSfkfe0Ixts4iYUdKoIkxZRWjCWoA/edit?usp=sharing

      @@kubamatusek2609 I adopted ESC Clarinet Moon's formula in calculating these. Basically, a win is 100% and last place is 0%, and the remaining entries are fractionally placed in between.
      His video in the top countries in Junior Eurovision by average results perfectly explains the formula. I highly recommend to check his videos out.

    Donny Montell (Lithuania) 14th -> 9th, Monika Lynkte (Lithuania) 18th -> 11th, Marco Mengoni (Italy) 7th ->4th. You could also include Carola, Dima Bilan & Linda Martin who won on their second attempts. Constantinos Christoforou (Cyprus) 9th (solo) -> 6th (as part of One). How did you include Senhit, but not 2 other San Marino artists, Valentina Monetta (14th in SF -> 24th in the final) and Serhat (12th in SF -> 19th in the final). Maybe not as dramatic an improvement, but still they did much better with their subsequent attempts. How you can include Lys Asia, who everyone knows won the first contest, yet exclude these entrants, I don't know.

    • @edthepheurofan
      @edthepheurofan  4 місяці тому +4

      As the title of the video suggests, I only included the top 25 entries who did better. I know there are A LOT of artists who returned and did better than their previous attempts, 85 entries to be specific, but again, I only made a video specifically highlighting the top 25 entries who statistically did better.
