I wanted to say "Mi Vida" a band which has four boys.
I am following this contest since 2011. I might have so much mistakes about past :oops:

So you mean "I love you mi vida" with D'Nash. That was Spain's entry in 2007.

My preferred winners by year (in bold: if it was the actual winner in that given year) and what I think about the actual winners.
90's:
1994: :pl: Poland (While I like the :ie: winning entry this year more than the previous ones, I still think this was yet another undeserved win for Ireland, especially since there were a handful of way stronger entries. :uk:, :ba: and :ru: would have also been deserving winners this year).
Oh, thank you. :mrgreen: I obviously totally agree with you. :mrgreen: That was our only entry which deserved to win.

My shortened list of preferred winners (only from '00s, actual winners in bold):
2001: Greece
2002: Latvia (I know what people think, but I actually liked it very much! :) )
2003: Greece
2004: Serbia & Montenegro (I loooove it!)
2005: Greece
2006: Greece or Norway
2007: Ukraine :lol:
2008: Moldova (I will never understand how this beatiful song didn't even make it to the final!) or Serbia (I also like the Greek version of "Oro" ;) )
2009: Norway
2010: Spain
2011: Greece
2012: Sweden (One of the most deserving entries in ESC history)
2013: Greece or The Netherlands

Only a few of these were my favorites, but songs that deserved it are:
2014 - Rise Like A Phoenix
2013 - Only Teardrops (pretty bad year)
2012 - Euphoria
2010 - Satellite
2009 - Fairytale
2006 - Hard Rock Hallelujah
2005 - My Number 1
1999 - Take Me To Your Heaven
1997 - Love Shine A Light
1994 - Rock 'n' Roll Kids
1992 - Why Me

And that's where I'll stop.

I will start from the introduction of the semi-final system.

2005 : Deserved ( Same as 2004, even if the performance was not impressive at all )
2006 : Undeserved ( I hate hard rock )
2007 : Deserved ( I almost cried. Marija has a beautful voice and an enormous talent. )
2008 : Undeserved ( Armenia, Serbia and Greece were waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay better. )
2009 : Deserved ( Well, a good song, nothing more. )
2010 : Deserved ( Same as 2009 )
2011 : Deserved ( Even if they certainly cheated )
