We've never been last at Eurovision. Which is surprising for country that sent Krassimir Avramov :D

I know, I thought another non qualification. Sorry

Here's a few reasons why I want Bulgaria back most of all...

Bulgaria: The most underrated country in Eurovision | ESCunited.com

Great article Sean.

Bulgaria has had four brilliant entries in my opinion, three of which failed to qualify. Even the songs i'm not crazy about probably deserved better as well.

Elitsa & Stoyan's second attempt, Deep Zone & Balthazar and the legend that is Sofi Marinova all were robbed.

As I mention Samo Shampioni isn't great in my book so wasn't really bothered about it's failure - in fact I'm surprised it came 12th in the semi...

I'm still in a state of mourning from 2008 though xcry1

I think Bulgaria 2008 was a hot mess, but I loved 2010, 2012, 2013 and especially 2011 :( so sad that one of the best and most diverse countries always does so poor!

My most fave from Bulgaria is "Lorraine" from 2005, and then I like 2008, Sofi from 2012 and "Water" from 2007.

I was in Arena in 2008, I liked their 2008 entry, but it simply didn't work on the stage and live in Arena..xshrug

Bulgaria sent a very dreadful song, one of the worst, which was "Illusion". However 2008, 2011, 2012 and 2013 were very very underrated. I specially like 2011, which came very close to qualify, but all of the other 3 were great too.

Illusion was a great song, with a great video and everything good just ended with the studio version. When it came on the stage, it was just trainwreck. But nevertheless, I still think that Illusion was worthy and original song with big potential, but everything was messed up. I don't know how was it even possible not to have even single decision in the right direction after this song was chosen in our NF...

I wouldn't say Illusion was "great", however I agree that it wasn't half as bad as people make it out to be, in fact I quite enjoyed it (in studio version), but yeah the live performance was a complete train-wreck :lol: and 2009 was such a strong year that I don't think it would qualify even with a good performance, while the song not being as bad as people say it's still not "up there".

Bulgaria was robbed in 2008, 2011, 2012 and 2013 however, and the latter two was the work of the evil anti-Euro minds of the juries because we would have got Bulgaria in the final both of those years if it wouldn't have been for the juries loath for everything that isn't according to their safe-western-anglo formula.

Bulgaria 2008, 2011, 2012 and 2013 are all great songs that should have qualified, 2013 in particular. I hope Bulgaria return and send something greag again and qualify for the final
