    I really think your argumentation for these picks is incredibly flawed. This is most definitely your personal opinion, so please put that in the title instead of just proclaiming the these are 'the worst winners', because that's just ignorant; if they were bad, they wouldn't have won. Most of these song were HUGE hits in Europe at the time.

      One funny thing here is that you have successfully created a double paradigm.
      The first one is pretty obvious you say an opinion with a question mark, which may mean irony, may mean that it's a real question (not as likely though), but it can also and more likely mean that it's so obvious, as a da-question.
      On the second statement you may mean, that you can either agree with my opinion (first line), or that you agree that I'm thinking too much about it (second line).
      Due to your subscription: I go with Irony and first line. :)

      @jamesshunt5123 Před 5 lety

      Supreme Lord of the Dark World Never mind the chorus (one line of the song) , even if you don't understand a single word the song itself is just incredibly repetitive and bland. There's no great hook, no change of key, no memorable lines, no finesse, nothing. It's not bad, it's not good. It's just so middle-of-the-road bland. It's ironic Yugoslavia won with one of their worst entries because they had several decent songs and a few good ones over the years.
      "You can't critisize one line from the song if you don't understand the rest of it." Yes, you can because it's judged by the music first and foremost. And listen, I very much doubt the rest of the lyrics were in the Bob Dylan class of lyrics.
      And while commercial success perhaps isn't the most fair way to judge the quality of music one can easily make the argument that the Eurovision mostly appeals to a "commercial crowd" (and has received both a lot of deserved and undeserved flak for it). Unlike most other of these winners listed here Yugoslavia's 1989 ESC winner was a commercial flop everywhere else but in Yugoslavia. What I'm trying to say is that it didn't chart anywhere in Europe. And from what I've read the band didn't last very long in Yugoslavia either and split up after two years.
      Johnny Logan's 1987 winner was number 1 in two countries and number 2 in four another countries. It was a top-10 hit in 11 European countries. Celine Dion charted in 6 countries. Italy's 1990 winner charted in 8 countries. I never liked the 1991 Swedish winner either but at least it charted in 6 European countries. Linda Martin's 1992 winner for Ireland charted in 8 countries. I can go on.
      Before you judge me I'll say that I consider Estonia's 2001 winner the worst, closely followed by Latvia's 2002 winner. They nearly killed the ESC altogether. Azerbaizdjan's 2011 winner should never have won but it wasn't bad. Never liked Russia's 2008 winner even though Dima Bilan has a lot of talent and charisma as an artist.

    #10 Ireland 1993 = YES I cannot remember this song. Not unpleasant but very old style. Not really a fan of it.
    #9 Sweden 1991 = YES awful song. France had a beautiful song, they got the same result, the same score of 12 points but eventually the worst one won
    #8 Israel 1978 = NOOO are you kidding? This song was amazing. Don’t forget that in the seventies and eighties, all songs had the same style. Didn’t age well but it was perfect for the last 70s. Sound quality was bad because has been filmed 40 years ago. If the singing is unclear for you it’s because they sang in Hebrew, it’s not “mumble”, is a language.
    #7 Ireland 1980 = YES I agree, very boring song, Johnny Logan won again some years later with a much better song
    #6 United Kingdom 1997 = NOOOO I TOTALLY DISAGREE with your choice. One of the most iconic winners in Eurovision’s history. She repeats herself and the choir is always similar? Welcome to Eurovision! Nobody cares about the lyrics, 90% are simple and cheesy.
    #5 Yugoslavia 1989 = YES, YES you are right, probably one the worsted winners in Eurovision’s history.
    #4 The Netherlands 1975 = NO, NO I TOTALLY DISAGREE! This song is a legend in Eurovision’s History. Don’t forget it was in the middle of the seventies, this was Eurovision’s style. Same feeling as Israel ranked #8.
    #3 Israel 1998 = NO, NO, WHY? Don’t touch Dana International. You probably ignore that the most passionate Eurovision’s fans are gays. Dana is not a woman, she was the first transgender winning the competition.

    Also, there's no way the 1975 winner (Netherland's - and a deserving winner) is *worse* than Yugoslavia's 1989 bland bagatelle.

      But I like when songs have a big variation and has a clear structure with different verses. Therefore I can not ignore a song that does the exact same thing three times with just one small stick between the 2nd and third. That is just to much laziness for me.

(My mom told me so, but she said it so fast that I didn´t thought about what that mean) And I can respect that she takes so much space to spread the great message even though I in general hates self focused people.
      The number 10 is like I said my least worst since 1970 and I have always thought about it as a (in general) song that is on the bottom half of ESC winners. Maybe I´m wrong.

      Tastes are not wrong or right. They are different, that's all. And there is absolutely nothing wrong or right about being gay, straight, trans or whatever. That's the way you were born. Dana's being transsexual does not make her songs better or worse just like my favourite songs are not better or worse just because they are performed by gay or straight people. You sing with your vocal chords, not with your sex. My remark about Dana was just a joke. By the way, I just have realized that only 4 items in my all-time ESC top 10 are winners, the highest placed one being ranked 3rd. Just another proof that not all winning songs are the most impressive ones.

    • @ebhae199
      @ebhae199  Před 7 lety

      What I regret was not my placement of Diva, what I regret was my comment. "Please use it to sing instead of being sexy..." and "Because I dislike when people are just self focused." I should at least have framed it different.
      But my placement would have bin the same.

      Personally, I do not see anything improper in your comment. And I dislike people singing about 'me, myself and I' all the time, either. This is, among other things, why the Italian song was my favourite ESC entry this year; it is about our society, not about how the lyricist feels.

    I agree it's not a GREAT song in the truest sense, but it has so many camp/drag qualities. It's a transgender singer, singing a disco song, about powerful women in history, in the ESC. You can't get more gay and camp than that. And it's so catchy. I love "Diva" just for that.

    8. i think hallelujah is more overrrated than this but i don't really like both
    7. this is such a snoozefest idk how it won. hold me now is WAY clear

    3. fantastic song, what can i say. i love disco
    2. no-one can deny that this only won because of the staging and the dance routine. which is fair enough, 2002 was a shit year, but the song itself is shockingly bad. my 2nd worst winner of all time behind russia 08

  • @CrackPi
    @CrackPi Před 8 měsíci

    Riva’s lyrics maybe stupid but first the music is AMAZING. And second, the fact the Yugoslavia won just “seconds” before the bloody war is so, idk, but when I hear this happy song with the knowledge of why happens just 2 years later is such an emotional roller coaster.
    That true for the arguably better song the Yugoslavia sent next year, it adds such an emotional layer to the silly song. And maybe I shouldn’t judge the song by things that happen later but I can’t.
    Also we have to remember this was the first Eurovision after the fall of The Berlin Wall. So I guess a fun and optimistic song was just what European needed at that point. And for that Rock me baby was perfect. It’s was the perfect for the time.
    Also it’s so poetic that it’s from a communist country (although not Stalinist) so it really is the perfect song for the time.
    Edit: About Dive I guess you aren’t queer. If so you can’t understand the importance of this song.
    Also yesterday I watched esc 2011 out of boredom. And and still, 12 years later I shouted at the TV When Azerbaijan won. It’s so STUPID. Lena should have when for the second time!!!!

    People become happy when you say good things about their country, their songs, their singers, their victories of their favorite winner(s) or entrees.
    Everybody is so different.
    And it's possible you really loved a song in 1972, but today you don't like it anymore. It's sometimes dangerous to say what you 'hate'. It can make people sad or angry. Maybe I'm the only one in the world who really doesn't like 'Poupée de cire, poupée de son (Lux 65) and Satellite (D 10). More people understand me when I say I don't like 'Rock me' (YU 89), 'Hard rock hallelujah' (FIN 06) and 'Running scared' (AZ 11). But I love from the same countries: 'Blackbird' (FIN 17), 'Où sont-elles passées' (LUX 64), 'Im Wartesaal zum grossen Glück' (D 56), 'Dan Ljiubezni' (YU 75) and 'Drip drop' (AZ 09).

      Finally someone that agree with NR:3, that is by my comments probably the most liked.

      A copy passed answer. Jamala is one of the songs I like to listen to the least but I decided to be immune from this list, because it´s a impressive way of singing that I´ve never heard before (even if it´s repeating as hell) and therefor I can not fairly criticize it without feeling like a evil person. Also I like the English verses.
      Hope you check out my new list of ESC songs of the 50s and 60s and subscribe to either me or my ESC channel if you like these kinds of commented lists.
