It does seem like it because that would not be my first of winner for Eurovision 1994 (in my opinion, it should have been Poland winning instead finishing runner up). I believe Riverdance (yes, that Riverdance) had a role in Ireland winning in '94 because that titular interval act really stole the show. And Riverdance became a full fledged show of its own because of Eurovision. I bet you didn't know that.
Sorry to be the "but actually" guy, but Sweden won 1991 because they had more 10s than france, not 12s, as both countries recieved the same amount of 12s
I thought it was worse than Iceland but the next year, they stopped Dadi from getting 12 from us, Norway and Ireland so could well have beaten him on televote
On Fire was amazing, but i do not see it winning in a year with so many amazing songs. I think iceland would have gotten their first win, but Russia, Switzerland, Sweden, Italy or Bulgaria winning over Lithuania also sound plausable.
@@Jaddas Russia would have won the tele but would have gotten like 50-75 points with the jury. Italy and Malta would have competed for Jury, but Malta would have got only 50-75 in Tele. I’m adamant Armenia could have got 190 tele and 100-150 jury. Lithuania and Iceland would have got 220 tele each but Iceland would have got 200 jury as well.
Like the special intro Adam.👍 Anyway, that’s a lot of countries for sure. It just shows you the power and strength that Eurovision still has to this day,
and helena paparizou is half swedish and celine is canadian but just because an artist is from one country yet represented a different one doesn't mean that their country of origin won since the artist represented a different country
@@slovakian_cheese I don't think Lithuania, Iceland and Romania would have won Eurovision 2020. Probably the winner was between Russia, Bulgaria or Switzerland

You are on a roll with these Eurovision videos! Related to the topic, which country would you like to see win Eurovision for the first time either personally or based on current track record? I have two in mind because they are in the same boat--Iceland and Lithuania. They are both the only Nordic and Baltic countries respectively that haven't won Eurovision yet and it is time to complete those blocs. I believe they would have contended for the title in 2020 had that contest not been cancelled due to the pandemic, but as of now, I am feeling more confident of Lithuania one day winning (or at least getting their first top five result) than Iceland due to recent track record. Iceland has really fallen down from their potential at the beginning of the decade, barely qualifying and finish bottom five in 2022, and not even qualifying these last two contests (11th in 2023 and last in 2024). Lithuania seems to be on a steady top 15 trajectory, with 8th at highest and 14th as lowest, although I wished they had finished a little higher this year with a top ten or at least top 13 left side of the board. Hopefully they can spring back up unless Lithuania seriously screws up next year, but you never know. Every year is a new slate.
Here are my predictions of who could win soon (based off previous results): Armenia = They have been doing well since 2022, their placements only increasing since then. I forsee them winning soon. Croatia = They have also been doing well recently, wouldnt be surprised if they win soon aswell, but maybe 2nd is the best they get like Australia Finland = Im not too educated on National finals, but they always seem the topic of discussion, mostly by not sending a potential winner. Maybe the stars align one day and they will win? France = They have also been doing quite well in the contest recently and they do deserve their win if they do win soon. Israel = If the politics stay the same like in 2024, Israel could have a chance to win the Televote and if the Jury favourite doesnt recieve a sufficient Televote score in that scenario, Israel may take home the victory. I'll leave the consequences of that up in the air. Lithuania = In a similar vein as Armenia, Lithuania has been doing well at the contest recently, narrowly missing the top 10 a few times. One good song and I predict they have a shot at winning. Joost Klein = If he returns for no matter what country, he will most likely be a Televote smash hit, just leaving the Question of the Jury score. San Marino = This is more of a desperate wish for San Marino to do well in 2025, so they maybe consider staying after that contest. Spain = They could take the Switzerland approach to winning, mainly by getting a great result (2022), followed by two alright results (2023, 2024), before winning (2025?) Again, just my guesses, maybe some country could win out of nowhere.
Adam, here's a helpful tip which will make you sound more professional. Go to Google Translate to listen exactly how song titles in their native languages sound like. It's really not that difficult... Nice video otherwise.
Im afraid you got it wrong about the tie brake in 1991 Carola did not win over a much better song from France because she had more douse points they were tied on 12 points as well Carola won because she had more 10 points ... get your facts straignt
I love how the year before the serbian win (2006), while giving out their points (as Serbia and Montenegro) the spokeswoman said that they would return the next year with the best song, and they did 😂. Also I still can’t accept Ukraine winning in 2022 as it was hands down pity votes. I think they should have been allowed to participate with a song but not compete and get a score as it was very unfair on Sam and Chanel.
@@Wailmur romania was a nice song but wouldn’t have had any chance at winning. It could however have done well with the jury and maybe even landed left hand side of the final with their aid. Lithuania was weaker and less jury friendly than Iceland but the next year, The Roop beat Dadi to the 12’s from us, Ireland and Norway, and both regressed by the same degree in 2021 (not a lot but the first was the best). Bulgaria had great chances with both sides of the vote but I don’t think people would have wanted virtually the same song to win twice in a row. It may have fallen short on televote but would have been no lower than 6th with them.
@@dzastin0713 it isn't, travelling to an Australian city is by no means cheap, and often you don't even have direct routes. Australia is free to win as many times as possible, but they're not gonna host the contest until it becomes easier and more affordable to travel to one of its cities
Amazing how the 1990s was a historic decade for Ireland at Eurovision; winning 4 times, hosting 4 times, winning back-to-back-to-back, setting other records; only for it to usher a less successful 2000s, 2010s, and 2020s with the exception of our beloved Barbie Thug.
My predictions for the close future: France will get its long awaited 6th victory. The next country to win for the first time will be either Lithuania or Cyprus. A fourth country will join the powerhouse trio of Ukraine, Italy, and Sweden at Eurovision.
My pet conspiracy theory is that Ireland wanted to lose in 1994, but failed to do so.
That's not an uncommon theory.

2000-2008 was the best time perioid for new winners.
Hope to see Lithuania on top, they deserve it since 2020 cancelled show. The Roop - On Fire had a lot of winning potential.
I also want to see Lithuania win Eurovision one day too. It would be great to have the Baltic region be complete.

Excellent video! And your british pronounciation of foreign song titles adds an extra exotic touch 😂
Apparently Wales are looking to compete separately from the rest of the UK in future 👀
I wonder if Scotland will ever do the same 🤔
Wales tried back in ‘69 to do that and was denied, so unless they get full independence, I doubt it’ll go in their favor.
I mean... They did compete independently at the Junior Eurovision Song Contest
Yeah but it will never happen so that's a pointless comment 😊
@@andreiamalitei Yeah, but they did it when the UK withdrew.
