Dancing Lasha Tumbai deserved some honorary mention. The song, quality wise, is not great but Verka serduchka is probably the most recognisable face of the festival of the last 20 years here in Europe. If the list includes memeable entries like Epic sax guy, Verka should be here too.

I wish there were Balkan ballads on this list. Lejla, Lane Moje, Molitva, Nije Ljubav Stvar etc are some of the most beautiful songs in history (especially Lejla). Pretty sure Željko Joksimović wrote (or co-wrote) the ones I listed lol except Molitva. Seriously the balkans rarely disappoint (even though there have been some misses, for example "Cipela" from Serbia 2009, absolutely cursed) but in general you can rarely go wrong with them. Hopefully WatchMojo can remake this video and add some of those wonderful songs, since they are worth listening to at least once.

"The best, most famous or otherwise memorable entries from the history of Eurovision" and it couldn't find any room in a top 20 list for the most voted song ever (by some margin)? Give some credit to Salvador Sobral and his unique song "Amar pelos dois". Not only the first Portuguese song to make it, but it has a beautiful backstory and totally stood out from the rest.

Then we guess the placements of each song and the one to get the closest to the correct scores gets a bunch of stuff like a trophy. So yeah, it’s a pretty big thing here

Sunstroke Project basically used Epic Sax Guy for his fame when entering Hey Mamma. It would've been a completely different entry (if they even entered again) had it not been for Run Away in 2010 and the phenomenon surrounding that. I think Run Away should've been the entry that was featured here, or at least mentioned in some way.
