Check out our original Best of the Bunch series discussing Eurovision entries between 2006 and 2015!
Bulgaria first made their debut back in 2005, and since then, it’s fairly safe to say that the nation hasn’t had the best of luck throughout their Eurovision journey. The nation has participated 11 times, and reached the final 3 times, and to be fair to Bulgaria, those three times gave the nation Top 5…

Ukraine first made their debut at Eurovision in 2003, and since their first appearance, they’ve won the contest an incredible two times, and quite consistently finished in the Top 10, if not the Top 5. They’ve missed one contest since their debut, which was 2015, which as part of our Best of the Bunch series…

Romania first debuted at Eurovision in 1994, and incredibly, the nation has managed to appear in every single final for each year they have participated in since their debut. The nation hasn’t participated every year since their debut however, missing out on 1995, 1997, 1999, 2001 and most recently in 2016, where the nation was…

I would have liked to have said San Marino is one of the smallest, but most successful nations in Eurovision, but this really couldn’t be further from the truth. Despite the fact that the nation has only qualified to the final once in a total of 8 attempts (including the most recent in Kyiv), there…

Denmark was the first Nordic nation to enter Eurovision, the year after the contest debut. They intended to join the contest in 1956, although their application missed the deadline, and as such, entered the following year. Denmark first won the country in 1963 with the song Dansevise, and since then, have had their highs and…

Czech Republic is one of the Eurovision babies of the class, with their first Eurovision performance in 2007. Since then, they’ve participated inconsistently, and not overly successfully, but regardless, some of the performances we will discuss today are favourites of ours, and maybe yours too! Today we’re going to recap the performances between 2007 and…

Italy was one of the original countries to participate in the Eurovision Song Contest, and they have fairly consistently participated since then, up until 1998, where they took a pretty extended break from the contest. They returned to the contest in 2011, so that’s where we will pick up today. Usually in the Best of…

Slovenia began their independent Eurovision journey in 1993, and their first decade of participation was actually quite successful. They received a number of top 10 results, however as soon as 2004 hit, their results became more hit and miss. Today we’re starting our Best of the Bunch journey in 2006, and continuing through to 2015,…
