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
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.
Iceland 2019 should definitely be added. Everything about it sucks - his way of singing, the message it sends out (The title literally translates to "Hate will prevail"), the staging, the dancers, his dress, even the few parts where the backing vocals are singing so there's no one screaming, everything. And yet it won a NF, qualified to the Grand Final and got in the Top 10 too.
why is Silvia Night here her song was great it stood out from the other songs you can see a lot of effort in her performance I don't understand why people have to put this performance at the very end. Also why is there no Bulgaria 2009 here
It was painfully bad, I do appreciate her commitment to the art of the troll though, yeah might do another top 11 in time for next years Eurovision that could easily make it on there
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)
I'm not sure why this is supposed to make me not want to get rid of the juries. Do you think there were any undeserving winners during the years it was televote only?
@@sk70091 I'll try to explain. When it was ALL Televote, naturally countries tried to get votes anyway they could, and having an outrageous entry, that people remember, is a good strategy. So the overall quality of the songs became less important, in exchange for spectacle. The contest started to become a joke. Think Ireland 2008. Very few of my personal favouties from ESC comes from this period, but all the winners were worthy in the field they competed in.
@@nocturne7371never got why people were complaining about Loreen winning when she got second in the televote if you didn’t want her to win you should’ve voted for another entry if you didn’t want her to get the 10s and 8s
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.
YES! Thank you so much for putting Germany 2000 on the list! It's my least favorite Eurovision song of all time! How anybody likes that song is beyond me. I could say the same for 2012 Georgia (I'm A Joker), but I was entertained from that entry from start to finish. It's super catchy, and I'm relieved that it didn't make the list.
Gotta admire you for being able to pick only 11 songs when there's enough Eurovision craptent for a three-hour movie, with songs from every decade XD I love Papa Pingouin, but the rest is... ahem. I particularly don't get that 2006 troll. There are troll acts that were successful, and this was just [UA-cam will not let this comment appear if I write what I want to write].
@@ravenzeitemann cheers geezer, might do another top 11 next year as you say there's so many haha, yeah her voice was just too painfull at least the others didn't actually do lasting damage to your each canal haha
Looking forward to it 😁 I really like your comments on why the entry is horrible. Something tells me that famous artists like DJ Bobo would've been more successful - even with that vampire song - if they went to Eurovision during their prime years.
@@Dim4323 that could be a good one I might do that, cheers for the suggestion, id have to think about that, they all sound the same pretty much, probably the one blue did I remember that being especially bad
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
@geezenation If you have a top 10 worst UK eurovision worst songs. Which 10 are you going to have (don't put andy Abraham it's a great song but it was the curse of 2nd)
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.
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
how did illusion, flying the flag, cry baby and celebrate ALL not make this list????
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
Silvia Night is the best troll ever and should have won her year
I couldn't stand it myself
Euro Neuro was better troll 🔥
@@geezenationyeah after it was revealed she was assaulting other contestants even the ebu and she didn't get disqualified unlike Joost Klein
😵
“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
Fair play, as a statement it might be great, but as a piece of music I found it terrible
I loved this song v
Very much
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.
yeah that's a fair point
I am Portuguese and i have IDEA how tf that entry was chosen to represent us that year. In fact, most portuguese were baffled
that's my reaction to the UK's entries most years haha, nice cat in the profile picture by the way, looks like my cat Jeffery

Also why is there no Bulgaria 2009 here
I couldn't stand it, it took most of what I hate about music and put it in one song, can't remember that one will give it a listen
It was painfully bad, I do appreciate her commitment to the art of the troll though, yeah might do another top 11 in time for next years Eurovision that could easily make it on there

Pokusaj is such a great song. i really cant understand this ranking
fair play, it properly irritated me especially the opening
I agree with you. I saw him in Belgrade in 2008. He was amazing ❤❤❤

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
who else feels like the big 5 count as bribing the competition?
pretty much
YES! Thank you so much for putting Germany 2000 on the list! It's my least favorite Eurovision song of all time! How anybody likes that song is beyond me.

100% so cringey, aw yeah I overlooked that one deffinately could have been on there haha
Israel 2000. Absolutely horrid.
Very true, that was close to making my list
I'm from Israel, and I agree!

Don't forget that Stefan Raab also helped Germany get their win in 2010!!
ah yeah just looked it up, didn't know that :)
@@geezenation And it's funny how nowadays Stefan Raab is the only person who seems to be able to get Germany a good result
@@BrewanSomeTea Get him in the euros coaching staff haha
Wolves of the sea is a fun sea shanty song
Ah it's horrid, that chorus is so annoying
Pokušaj was one of my favorites and Leto Svet was my guilty pleasure in 2008 😭😭
@@andrackulateamshots501 Leto svet is catchy, it has grown on me haha
Leto Svet is Balticese for Let us sweat. Fact.
I loved I Don’t Feel Hate!
Me too ❤❤
What Pokusaj and DJ Bobo doing in this list?? Based on who's opinion???
just my opinion
@@geezenation Would then put also DQ from Denmark 2007 with a similar type cheap drag performance, non innovate lyrics and weak vocals. 😉
@@Bandido894 that's a good one if I make another list 🙂
7 and 9 , worst eurovision songs ever ??? Ah no !!!
haha wolves of the sea is at least catchy
whadde hadde dudde is a legend
the outfits were legendary
I feel spaniardly proud of that first position 😂 mamma.... The pleasure of cringe....
hahaha if you're gonna do it might as well do it better than anyone else
How can you forget Azerbaijan 2008 Eurovision entry. Nightmareish!
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
@@geezenationit’s funny because one of the singers was giving his all in the singing while the other couldn’t hold a tune
@@geezenation It's still the one that jumps straight to my head when I think of some of the worst songs/performances haha
That was one of their best!

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
Some songs are so bad they are good. It's the ones that are bad and stay bad that I expect on this list 😂
I have mf taste in music so bet I bop to some ahah
Yeah that was my thinking, to be fair since making this list leto svet has grown on me haha
YOU HAVE 2 OF MY WINNERS IN THIS LIST HAHAHAH (1980 & 2006)
hahaha fair play
Totally agree!
Where is Magdalena Tul with "Jestem" from Poland (ESC 2011)? She got the worst result for Poland ever (and that itself says a lot...)
That's a good shout will have to bear that one in mind if I do another top 11 :)
Also none from the uk?
Yeah I considered a few uk ones, but we're usually more generic than awful, none of them stood out in particular
@geezenation
If you have a top 10 worst UK eurovision worst songs.
Which 10 are you going to have (don't put andy Abraham it's a great song but it was the curse of 2nd)
Do it for your lover wasnt that bad, just basic. It was the vocals that killed it
I hated it so much, maybe congratulations was worst, to be fair
@@geezenation yeah congratulations might be the worst song ever sent to eurovision 🤣

The countdown is on , where almost at eurovision week 🙌
