This was a very strong Eurovision year with my favorite from this contest also being Switzerland which is in my top 3 of all time
Let me ignore the UK and Spain placement. 😅 what a year! Truly amazing. And hey I guessed your #1 right! 🥳
I've noticed how different my points score would be now compared to when we did the watchalong. Italy would now get my 12 points whereas I gave it Spain before. My taste must be maturing.
One of my favorite years! Banger after banger. And before I watch it, I just suspect your #1 is Switzerland (should be UK though 😎). The Netherlands, Italy, and Sweden are probably top 5.
Here are my personal votes/rankings, i'am from the Netherlands (Rotterdam city)
12 points: Belgium - Louis Neefs - Jennifer Jennings
10 points: Monaco - Jean Jacques - Maman, Maman
8 points: Italy - Iva Zanicchi - Due grosse lacrime bianche
7 points: United Kingdom - Lulu - Boom bang a bang
6 points: Spain - Salomé - Vivo cantando
5 points: Ireland - Muriel Day & the Lindsays - The wages of love
4 points: Sweden - Tommy Körberg - Judy, min vän
3 points: France - Frida Boccara - Un jour, un enfant
2 points: Yugoslavia - Ivan & 4M - Pozdrav svijetu
1 point : Germany - Siw Malmkvist - Primaballerina
Maybe a hot take, but I'd actually rank Sweden 1969 among Sweden's all-time top 10, Sweden can only dream of such melodies these days (sorry...)
I think we agree with the best winner of the 1969 class, haha! Though my favorite is Desfolhada--it's so powerful and Simone delivers it so well.
I forgot how stellar 1969 is of a year. Sweden is my winner, making Tommy Körberg the only artist to be my winner twice 😊
I appreciate you doing these again 😊
I enjoy making them as well :)
My Top 3: Portugal, Italy, Spain.
France is my winner from 1969 and I love Monaco too. ❤❤❤
Loved your review of France. - Expected you to be more scathing about UK. Maybe too gushing over Switzerland. Bit fanboy over Sweden.😉 - BTW - It is 'segue' not 'segway'. 👍
I've probably written "segway" in like fifty different videos at this point, but that will end starting today!
Thank you for pointing it out as my grammar check program doesn't seem to do that...

I agree a lot in here, except for that last place, but I just switch UK and Norway, so it doesn't make a lot of difference. My first place must be Sweden. Tommy was so charming!
