not as a song but did you think on pilou's attempt to speak kind-of chinese last year? (many times)

Well, I meant to say "as a song"...
And something was incorrect there as the host said "In China, Emmelie was called xiao hudie among the fans, it means "little butterfly"
I don't know the source but Emmelie has never been called xiao hudie, her nickname is gongzhu (princess).

As someone mentioned before, Estonia and Finland translate the lyrics of the songs in the broadcast.
Also, Hungary projected the lyrics in English in the screens back in 2013.

[MENTION=10773]wyq614[/MENTION] i don't think it was a "true" fact, just a joke not really funny. Like a running gag about using chinese a last time.

Even if it wasn't really more than 6, Finland 2013 did it by exchanged the male backing dancers to female when they performed
Yeah, but she isn't an East Asian, she is South East Asian, which is different
We haven't seen an entry involving roller skates or skateboards on stage. (There might be some very tiny use that i haven't noticed, but nothing major.)
There's never been an entry where the singer gets held up by others to "swim" or just face up while singing, like this:
There's never been an entry using paint, or some colored substance to make a total mess on stage.
There's never been choreography involving a "fake slow motion" effects, like at 2:22 in this MF entry:
There's never been a Turkish artist from Cyprus.

We haven't seen an entry with an outright "false ending" before the actual ending, though a few like Belarus "Mum" from 2006 came kinda close.
We haven't seen an entry in the form of a fictional national anthem, though there's been some in fictional languages like "Sanomi" which were kind of anthemic....
We haven't seen an entry using some kind of interactive audience participation, via Twitter for example, being shown on stage.
We haven't seen an entry featuring a "siamese twin suit" for two or more people, like this one....
We haven't seen an entry where the lyrics are simply the same words repeated over and over, with nothing more.
We haven't seen an artist replaced entirely right before the deadline, performing the same tune - same artist with different tune, several times, but never the other way around.
We haven't seen a song in the form of 2 or 3 really short, entirely separate tunes. Technically there's nothing to forbid it, as long as the whole package is under 3 minutes, and it would be entirely possible and not all that strange for some genres like punk and traditional European-style folk, which frequently has tunes that short, and i'm really curious how that would be recieved.

Latvia 2006
Not too sure what you mean by this, but would the end of Belarus 2014 fit that description?
Lithuania 2015
Latvia 2002!!
Norway 2014?
I do remember one like this, I can't remember who did it, but I do remember it. Also Greece 2005?
Ukraine 2009, Svetlana had that in her choreo.

Plus Turkey 2006 and Armenia 2011 have done something like that.
