Oh wow. Would be easier to find 3 that are NOT dissappointing.
But ok, while I struggle with other 2 (too many choices), absolutely the worst entry we ever sent is

1. 2011. Daria - Celebrate - one of the worst things that ever hit ESC

And with that one, I would add

2. 2007.
3. 2008.
- both equaly horrible.

 

[ESC Athens]

(2001 onwards)

Clear winner: 2016 (Argo - Utopian Land)
2nd: 2023 (Victor Vernicos - What They Say)

2006-Today as this is when i have followed MGP and Eurovision and thus had the posibility of being dissapointed

1 by far 2021 Tix "Fallen Angel" I hate everything about this entry. I was so upset when this won. Loads of better options in the national final. Especially ``Monument`` ``Nordlyset`` and ``Faith Bloody Faith``
2 2010 Didrik Solli-Tangen "My Heart Is Yours" Very uninspired and boring host entry, should have been ``The Dragontower`` or ``Yes Man``
3 2020 Ulrikke "Attention" An ok song, but the national final was a disaster as the voting did not work. Not the best year, but there were a few songs i liked more.


If we include all time Norway has sent a few mediocre songs, though expectations would be lower back in the day, so i would be less dissapointed. Also many older songs i have a soft spot for, even though many of them definetly did not have broad international appeal.

I probably would put 2001 between 2021 and 2010 if i were making an all time top 3 disapointments though.

since 2005 first time i follow Eurovision

1. 2011. Everything with this was wrong. It had nothing with Norwegian music to do. Stella was not singing well and it feels more like a politican choose and a desperate way to stand out. A weak MGP and a horrible winner. I was very happy we flop that year.

2. 2024. Well i don,t like anything about our entry this year. Only good thing is that Gunhild could sing and the stageperformance is good. But the song? Oh dear

3. is very close between 2007 and 2022 but i must go for 2022. We sending some silly Wolf. Yeah the songs was catchy. But i don,t like at all songs like this and how they let Eurovision became a jokecontest and not a song contest. Yeah it gave us a good result. But i want Norway to send the best songs and not trying too much to only go for showsongs.

All time
2023 Theodor Andrei - "D.G.T. (Off and On)"
2007 Todomondo - "Liubi, Liubi, I Love You"
2000 Taxi - "The Moon"

Since I started watching (2009)
2023 Theodor Andrei - "D.G.T. (Off and On)"
2015 Voltaj - "De la capăt"
2018 The Humans "Goodbye"

After our disqualification in 2016, everything went downhill (bar Yodel and Llamame)
