Our top 10 Eurovision 2017 entries: part one
We successfully included last year's winner in our top 10 Eurovision 2016 entries post. Are we on a roll? Here's our selection of the best songs this year (part one)!
Eurovision Greatest Hits: Sameyakh (Israel, 2000)
The backing track sounds a lot like Gina G's 'Ooh Ahh...Just A Little Bit', but the singing sounds anything but happy.
Eurovision Greatest Hits: S.A.G.A.P.O. (Greece, 2002)
Let's face it, this isn't so much about the song as the fantastic styling and performance. This is exactly the type of shit Mission Eurovision loves!
Eurovision Greatest Hits: Weil der Mensch zählt (Austria, 2003)
Not only was this entertaining with a random rock riff thrown in at the end of the chorus, the lyrics were about hares and birds and cats pancake stripes (no, I don't know) and "wool of the dromedary from Africa".
Eurovision Greatest Hits: Irlande Douze Pointe (Ireland, 2008)
As far as novelty entries go, a puppet turkey banging on about the Eurovision voting system is pretty much at the pinnacle.
(Junior) Eurovision Greatest Hits: Si on voulait bien (France, 2004)
Junior Eurovision 2004. Thomas Pontier, this little French boy, sashayed out onto the stage and SLAYED. Classy, timeless and effortless.
Eurovision Greatest Hits: We Are The Winners (Lithuania, 2006)
Looking like a gaggle of used car salesmen out on the piss after reaching their quarterly targets, LT United manage to make this part football chant / part gameshow tune SO DAMN CATCHY!
Eurovision Greatest Hits: Moustache (France, 2014)
Happy, bouncy, jumpy AND it's about moustaches. Should be a WIN WIN, right? Except, bizarrely, this came LAST and only scored 2 points.
Eurovision Greatest Hits: We Are Slavic (Poland, 2014)
We all remember 'My Słowianie - We Are Slavic' by Donatan & Cleo. Or, at least, we all remember the performance in 2014's Eurovision Song Contest. That butter churning, amirite?
