@@Zakrusta Main problem is that 1FLTV is not available free over the air or satellite (like SRF), only on cable and its paid, which is against rules of EBU about broadcasters. And 1FLTV is private, so Liechtenstein doesnt have public broadcaster.
2006 Serbia & Montenegro was by far the craziest of all, ending in fighting, booing and the audience leaving the venue in protest during the live broadcast. 😅
Hungary actually had to do the same in 2009 if I remember correctly. "Magányos csónak" which is included in this video was already the second choice for the contest. The first song had to be eliminated because of plagiarism I think (or being released too early).
2010 was a mess, that's when russian puppets won elections and all country got into protests as the new government was EXTREMELY nepotist, but back in 2009 when the guy nobody knows or listens to was selected, there was backlash because political connections shouldn't be the deciding factor. Later changes were due to backlash to singers fudging the votes or visiting russia after 2014... I am proud of who we sent to represent in last few years, Alina Pash has to be the worst rapper I heard, and Maruv is full-on russia cheerleader now, like supports the war and wishes us all to be dead. We dodged an artillery shell here. Go-A, Kalush and TVORCHI were really good!
@@Richardsonprincess00 the fact they DQ'ed Georgia for being invaded, and made russia a host to celebrate their wars of aggression (they literally had pro-war and military concert on Euro stage with cheering up an invasion) is a shame Eurovision will never live down. That's why Ukraine insists on never letting russia in. But they STILL find ways, this year a singer from moscow who celebrated invasion of Ukraine is representing Israel. At least she's so scared crowd doesn't let her out of hotel without security. I wish all russia supporters get so much calling out.
Not a single month has passed and this list is already outdated. "Pesenka" was selected as the second belarussian entry this year and was quickly disqualified by the EBU. Still a very interesting list!

Omg, i didn‘t know Cija si by Tose Proeski was supposed to go to Eurovision. That song is a classic and hit in the balkans. Sad he didn’t get to perform this song. RIP Tose
I don't think it was. As far as I could research, Beovizija 2003 was simply meant to be a rehearsal for 2004 when they would actually be choosing a song for Eurovision. Not to mention "Čija si" is almost 5 minutes long and there isn't an existing short version...
It wasn't... Beovizija 03 was not preselection and scg was not intend to participate in 03 contest, as not Croatia in 92 and they didn't had dora at all
Yeah I didn‘t know either… makes me so sad right now that Tose didn‘t have the opportunity to represent serbia & montenegro :( cija si is still one of my fav songs
Maruv from Ukraine refused because in the contract it stated that she could not preform in Russia anymore, but she refused since she has a huge fan base in Russia and she has several songs in Russian
There was one more statement that she should not give interviews to any russian media. And there were super huge fines for that because actually, she was doing everything of that a lot. I think it is ok to make a harsh contract with a person that disrespects the nation that it's representing. There were lots of uncomfortable questions 😁

As a Hungarian, I just can recommend you Tompos Kátya - Magányos Csónak, which is a hit song 13 years later too. And as we have one of most visible corrupt government, we held our national selection in the last 2 years just for our entertainment, where the winners didn't have a chance to go to Eurovision. The winners were in 2020 Rácz Gergő & Orosvai Reni - Mostantól, which broke every single record record in my country, and this year Kaukázus - Egyetlen szó won.
Also Italy 2014: The winning song of Sanremo was "Controvento" by 'Arisa', but Rai decided to chose internally, so Rai decided to send 'Emma' with "La mia città"
I don't think it should be considered. Sanremo is not meant to be a Eurovision selection, and especially in 2014 it wasn't yet established that the winner of Sanremo would go to ESC, as far as I know.
@@Preeesco I know it's not a national selection for Eurovision (I'm Italian). Rai decided in 2011 to select an artist from Sanremo with an internal jury, but in the end they decided to send the winner of that year, Raphael Gualazzi with "Madness of love". In 2012 Rai instead decided not to send the winner of Sanremo to Eurovision but internally chose Nina Zilli, who was competing in Sanremo in 2012 but did not win (that year Emma won with "Non è l'inferno"). In 2013 Rai decided to send the winner of Sanremo. And again in 2014 Rai decided to choose the song internally (that year Emma was not in competition) so Rai decided to send a song that had nothing to do with Sanremo. So if Rai had wanted to do things done in the right way, it would have had to send at least any singer from Sanremo 2014 to Eurovision but they didn't.
@@lamusicachenonce Ho cercato e non trovo da nessuna parte il fatto che Emma con 'La mia città' fosse stata scelta prima del Festival, credo che sia un errore anche perché di solito, Sanremo prima faceva passare Sanremo poi pensava all'Eurovision quindi quasi sicuramente (come scritto su Internet) la Rai dopo Sanremo decise di scegliere internamente il cantate scegliendo di mandare Emma e non Arisa vincitrice del Festival
Some updates or some others entries/countries that never got to perform on ESC stage: 1) Tunisia 1977: Tunisia was supposed to debut in 1977 (they even got announced in the official running order), but Tunisia withdrew before selecting an entry for unknown reasons (most of the people thinks is because Tunisia didn't want to compete with Israel). 2) Ukraine 2022: Alina Pash won Vidbir 2022 with "Shadows Of Forgotten Ancestors", but since she illegally entered Crimea, the broadcaster replaced her with the runner-up (Kalush Orchestra) 3) Malta 2022: Emma Muscat has won the national selection with "Out Of Sight", but her and the broadcaster decided to change the song with ""I Am What I Am". 4) Armenia 2012: Dorians was supposed to represent Armenia with the song "This Is Our World", but since in 2012, ESC was held in Azerbaijan and Ictimai (the Azerbaijan broadcaster) couldn't assure the security of the armenian delegation in Baku, Armenia withdrew from ESC 2012.
No. It currently represents the Belarussian protesters who are against Lukashenko, and stop saying that iT's a nAzI fLaG just because Belarus used this flag while the invasion against USSR
Wrong about Nina Zilli. She was selected to represent Italy, but she has never won the Sanremo festival. ("Winning Sanremo " means winning the category Big, not the newcomers section.) The year Nina was sent to Eurovision, Emma Marrone won Sanremo. She represented Italy in 2014 instead. Thanks for the video. Very interesting! 🙂
Don’t really think the 2020 songs count as part of this list, they did still make it to Eurovision and they were officially classed as ESC entries, and were shown in all the programs they did on Eurovision week, they just never competed...
8:40 this still breaks my heart PS: Belarus seems the queen of changing and withdrawing songs. PS2: At recent years in 2018 we didn't have any problem.
1988 Cyprus :song was played prior, 1992 Switzerland song participated first in the Swissgerman broadcaster but wasn’t selected to compete, then they presented it to the Swissfrench and won therefore was disqualified. Austria 1990, the song participated in the German selection from 1988.
Love this video, I've always had a soft spot for Per Sempre over her official entry. I remember Hungary 2009 so well, Katya was actually the second choice after they had withdraw the first entry they submitted Márk Zentai - If You Wanna Party because it was a cover of the Swedish Big Brother theme song 😂😂
I blame the jury that allowed full-on russian cheerleader to take place in national selection, next time we banned putin fans from taking part in it, so Maruv is now locked in russia where she will remain in obscurity forever. She made her choice.
They were originally going to have VAL back from 2020 but they openly supported the protests against Lukashenko's authoritarianism. VAL withdrew because they didn't want to represent his government, and the Belarusian State Broadcaster banned them anyway.

@@bunzobunny1642 This is a video about songs that WAS SELECTED as entries for the Eurovision Song Contest, but were not performed in the contest. Because Russia in 2022 was disqualified before the performer was selected, I consider this example incorrect
This is actually quite fascinating to watch. Some of the early 2010s songs that had to be changed make so much more sense to me know as I only saw them for the first time in the semis or final and I thought they weren't good and questioned why they were sent to Eurovision. 😂
Great video! One error: Norway 1968 was not disqualified. The composer Kari Diesen withdrew the entry before the accusations of plagiarism had been dealt with by NRK. She later regretted her decision.
Update for 2022: Ukraine: Supposed to be represented by Alina Pash and her song "Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors", but it was revealed that she forged travel documents, so the broadcaster selected the second place of the national final. Malta: "Out Of Sight" originally won the national final, but both the broadcaster and Emma Muscat decided to change the songs.
Really good video, my only piece of constructive criticism would be that it was difficult to read some pieces of text as they moved too quickly. Hope this helps. Enjoyed 👍👍
Am i the only that loves the 1982 Greece's song? I think if they didnt release is as an album it would have won for sure without being illegal(as the rules of EBU say obviously)
As a catalan speaker myself, what Franco did with Serrat (1968) makes me so sad. I hope my country sends some songs in catalan, galician or basque in the future.
Actually, you forgot one more entry, Denmark 1962. Apparently, Gitten Hænning was supposed to participate in Dansk Melodi Gran Prix that year with "Jeg snakker med mig selv," but was disqualified right before the show, because the composer of the entry was heard whistling the song in a restroom at DR studios. It was the bookies favorite to win DMGP that year and represent the country, and would have done better than what they sent. It's totally crazy!
4:19 I never knew Toše was supposed to represent SCG at Eurovision, that's crazy! That song was a hit in the Balkans afterwards and could have won IMO, sadly aside from his 2004 performance with Macedonia that's all we saw from him in the ESC. RIP
Blows my mind how many countries didn't perform because they sent songs that had already been performed. Like, it's a clear rule and so many countries decided to break it. Didn't they know they were breaking rules or what
Fyra Bugg och En Coca Cola was renamed so it could be played. The song stayed the same just changed Coca Cola to Rocka Rolla. So I would argue that it is pretty much the same song that was in ESC.
Now we have Ukraine 2022 (Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors - Alina Pash) and, allegedly, Malta 2022 (Out of Sight - Emma Muscat) (apparently she's changing her song, just like Malta did in 2016!)
Just a notice, actual winner of Serbia & Montenegro was Flamingosi - Ludi Letnji Ples which was proven later. Also, in 2011 Georgia had "a situation" where they at first wanted to replace the performer but their broadcaster forcefully replaced the singer of Eldrine, Tamar Vadachkoria, with Sopho Toroshelidze and kept the song but they rearranged it to sound a bit different from the original one. And in 2009, audience in Serbia chose OT Band - Blagoslov Za Kraj but jury fixed the results for Marko Kon for some unknown reason.
i agree, according to the same standards used for Belarus' song this year, 1944 shouldn't have been able to participate. The only true difference between the two songs (except for the fact that Ya Nauchu Tebya is ugly as some rotten roadkill) that justified this double standard is that 1944 was useful as pro-NATO propaganda, while the other one was the exact opposite

I don't think it should be considered. Sanremo is not meant to be a Eurovision selection, and especially in 2014 it wasn't yet established that the winner of Sanremo would go to ESC, as far as I know.
Emma and La mia città have been selected before Sanremo 2014 was held.
@@Preeesco I know it's not a national selection for Eurovision (I'm Italian). Rai decided in 2011 to select an artist from Sanremo with an internal jury, but in the end they decided to send the winner of that year, Raphael Gualazzi with "Madness of love".
In 2012 Rai instead decided not to send the winner of Sanremo to Eurovision but internally chose Nina Zilli, who was competing in Sanremo in 2012 but did not win (that year Emma won with "Non è l'inferno").
In 2013 Rai decided to send the winner of Sanremo. And again in 2014 Rai decided to choose the song internally (that year Emma was not in competition) so Rai decided to send a song that had nothing to do with Sanremo. So if Rai had wanted to do things done in the right way, it would have had to send at least any singer from Sanremo 2014 to Eurovision but they didn't.
@@lamusicachenonce Ho cercato e non trovo da nessuna parte il fatto che Emma con 'La mia città' fosse stata scelta prima del Festival, credo che sia un errore anche perché di solito, Sanremo prima faceva passare Sanremo poi pensava all'Eurovision quindi quasi sicuramente (come scritto su Internet) la Rai dopo Sanremo decise di scegliere internamente il cantate scegliendo di mandare Emma e non Arisa vincitrice del Festival
Some updates or some others entries/countries that never got to perform on ESC stage:
1) Tunisia 1977: Tunisia was supposed to debut in 1977 (they even got announced in the official running order), but Tunisia withdrew before selecting an entry for unknown reasons (most of the people thinks is because Tunisia didn't want to compete with Israel).
2) Ukraine 2022: Alina Pash won Vidbir 2022 with "Shadows Of Forgotten Ancestors", but since she illegally entered Crimea, the broadcaster replaced her with the runner-up (Kalush Orchestra)
3) Malta 2022: Emma Muscat has won the national selection with "Out Of Sight", but her and the broadcaster decided to change the song with ""I Am What I Am".
4) Armenia 2012: Dorians was supposed to represent Armenia with the song "This Is Our World", but since in 2012, ESC was held in Azerbaijan and Ictimai (the Azerbaijan broadcaster) couldn't assure the security of the armenian delegation in Baku, Armenia withdrew from ESC 2012.
so in 2011 Belarus really went from I am Belarussian to sending I love Belarus 💀
belarus flag as it should
hello =))
But what people don't know is that it's a fascist flag used by the Nazis during URSS' invasion
Nazi flag yes ^~^
No. It currently represents the Belarussian protesters who are against Lukashenko, and stop saying that iT's a nAzI fLaG just because Belarus used this flag while the invasion against USSR
@@vidisg14 Its still a nazi flag. You cant just change the meaning because some american financied woman told you so
Wrong about Nina Zilli. She was selected to represent Italy, but she has never won the Sanremo festival. ("Winning Sanremo " means winning the category Big, not the newcomers section.)
The year Nina was sent to Eurovision, Emma Marrone won Sanremo. She represented Italy in 2014 instead.
Thanks for the video. Very interesting! 🙂
did Nina zilli won the newcomer section?
@@lexezlao no
4:41 best quality not gonna lie
Don’t really think the 2020 songs count as part of this list, they did still make it to Eurovision and they were officially classed as ESC entries, and were shown in all the programs they did on Eurovision week, they just never competed...
Yep! That why they’re in this video Bc they never got to perform on the Eurovision stage :)
Never got to perform on a EUROVISION stage, unless you consider the home concerts as some kind of "Virtual" stage
They were eligible for the 250 as well
That's why the video is about "Song NOT able to compete on a Eurovision Stage"
Nina Zilli didn't win Sanremo in 2012, she finished 7th with Per Sempre.
8:40 this still breaks my heart
PS: Belarus seems the queen of changing and withdrawing songs.
PS2: At recent years in 2018 we didn't have any problem.
So much bangers 😭
didn’t realise theirs been so many songs that didn’t get to perform!
Poor Enzo from Malta, he lost not only one but twice and never got a chance to represent him country at Eurovision
Ah yes the 1918, 1991 - 1995, 2020 - present day Belarusian flag is shown.
Thank you so much for honoring the real Belarusian flag!
This must have taken a lot of effort
2016 Belarus: Moment of Silence
EBU: Two can play at that game.
Eurovision 2016 Albania was revamped not disqualified
I didn’t list Albania 2016 as a DQ, it’s listed reason is “Changes”
@@peopipeo It doesn't make any sense to include it here. Then you'd have to include all the Albanian entries that were changed to English
* 2020 entered the chat *
1988 Cyprus :song was played prior, 1992 Switzerland song participated first in the Swissgerman broadcaster but wasn’t selected to compete, then they presented it to the Swissfrench and won therefore was disqualified. Austria 1990, the song participated in the German selection from 1988.
Love this video, I've always had a soft spot for Per Sempre over her official entry. I remember Hungary 2009 so well, Katya was actually the second choice after they had withdraw the first entry they submitted Márk Zentai - If You Wanna Party because it was a cover of the Swedish Big Brother theme song 😂😂
Siren Song & North Macedonia 2013 was such bad choices, they should’ve represented, but i don’t blame MARUV for the contracts...
I blame the jury that allowed full-on russian cheerleader to take place in national selection, next time we banned putin fans from taking part in it, so Maruv is now locked in russia where she will remain in obscurity forever. She made her choice.
🇱🇧Wish they were in it, would have been my winner in 05
Same with 09🇬🇪
Georgia was warning us😣
Well, 2022 has given us 2 new additions to this list. Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors [UKR] and Out of Sight [MLT]
Hopefully no more than that
I wanted Zena to come back for 2021 so when I heard that song for Belarus I was just Iike 🧍♀️
They were originally going to have VAL back from 2020 but they openly supported the protests against Lukashenko's authoritarianism. VAL withdrew because they didn't want to represent his government, and the Belarusian State Broadcaster banned them anyway.
Additions for 2022
Ukraine
Alina Pash - Shadows of the Forgotten Ancestors
Reason: Scandal
UA:PBC confirmed on 16 February 2022 that Pash would not represent Ukraine following controversy regarding her travel history to the territory of Crimea, and announced the national final runner-up, "Stefania" performed by Kalush Orchestra, as the Ukrainian entry
Malta
Emma Muscat - Out of Sights
Reason: Changes
After the winning Malta's national final, the song was replaced with "I am what i am"
Russia
Reason: War
It Was Announced That Russia Will Not Be Participating In Eurovision Because Of The Ukraine And Russia War
@@bunzobunny1642 This is a video about songs that WAS SELECTED as entries for the Eurovision Song Contest, but were not performed in the contest. Because Russia in 2022 was disqualified before the performer was selected, I consider this example incorrect
@@ЕгорГладких-ш4ш Yeah And Russia Will Never Return To Eurovision.
@@bunzobunny1642 Russia may return, but simply won't get points, because only televoting has been used in the semi-finals since this year.
This is actually quite fascinating to watch. Some of the early 2010s songs that had to be changed make so much more sense to me know as I only saw them for the first time in the semis or final and I thought they weren't good and questioned why they were sent to Eurovision. 😂
There is to much of my country (Belarus) and thanks for using the correct flag
Thanks a lot for this explain us facts about songs in Eurovision song Contest. I really appreciated that.
The only time where France withdrawn, it's the year of... Waterloo
Romania 2016 is one of the best eurovision songs ever, its so sad it didnt get to participate
Debts owed from EBU
Great video! One error: Norway 1968 was not disqualified. The composer Kari Diesen withdrew the entry before the accusations of plagiarism had been dealt with by NRK. She later regretted her decision.
From where I read it said it was DQ, thank you for clarifying:)
I love how my country, Greece tried to send in 1978 a diss track for Alfred Nobel that was finally replaced by a song that honoured Charlie Chaplin!
Dear poland: if you think your problem this year is big, take a look at serbia and montenegro in 2006😂😂😂😂
Malta 2016 Chameleon my favourite.
Update for 2022:
Ukraine: Supposed to be represented by Alina Pash and her song "Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors", but it was revealed that she forged travel documents, so the broadcaster selected the second place of the national final.
Malta: "Out Of Sight" originally won the national final, but both the broadcaster and Emma Muscat decided to change the songs.
Finally, 🇷🇺 has been excluded from ESC cause of the war with 🇺🇦
@@Richardsonprincess00 they sent a moscow resident under Israeli flag this time, she's righfully booed for the wrong reasons lmao.
I love Lebanon 2005 ♥ , Italy 2012 ♥, N. Macedonia 2013 ♥, Germany 2015 ♥, Malta 2016 ♥ and Ukraine 2019 ♥
Thank you for making this! I love those type of videos!
I kinda like far away and rhythm of love
Really good video, my only piece of constructive criticism would be that it was difficult to read some pieces of text as they moved too quickly. Hope this helps. Enjoyed 👍👍
THANK YOU for telling about Franco in the Lalala replacement, it was a dictatorship decision
im sorry but how did switzerland enter a song from the wrong broadcaster lol
Am i the only that loves the 1982 Greece's song? I think if they didnt release is as an album it would have won for sure without being illegal(as the rules of EBU say obviously)
As a catalan speaker myself, what Franco did with Serrat (1968) makes me so sad. I hope my country sends some songs in catalan, galician or basque in the future.
Serrat is such an icon, he deserved better
Can't wait to hear a song in Catalan 🤗
The song is so good it could actually be on today's Eurocision
Y asturianu.
@@АннаЛутцева-у6р Andorra has already sent a few songs in Catalan though, so it's not like said language has never been heard in Eurovision.
turkey 1979 and greece 1986 were really good. also bulgaria 2013 and ukraine of course 2019
Actually, you forgot one more entry, Denmark 1962. Apparently, Gitten Hænning was supposed to participate in Dansk Melodi Gran Prix that year with "Jeg snakker med mig selv," but was disqualified right before the show, because the composer of the entry was heard whistling the song in a restroom at DR studios. It was the bookies favorite to win DMGP that year and represent the country, and would have done better than what they sent.
It's totally crazy!
When will we get an updated version of this video?
4:19 I never knew Toše was supposed to represent SCG at Eurovision, that's crazy! That song was a hit in the Balkans afterwards and could have won IMO, sadly aside from his 2004 performance with Macedonia that's all we saw from him in the ESC. RIP
Blows my mind how many countries didn't perform because they sent songs that had already been performed. Like, it's a clear rule and so many countries decided to break it. Didn't they know they were breaking rules or what
Butterflies is my #1 in 2010, BUT Far Away would have been there with a landslide. 🔥❤️
Fyra Bugg och En Coca Cola was renamed so it could be played. The song stayed the same just changed Coca Cola to Rocka Rolla. So I would argue that it is pretty much the same song that was in ESC.
1976 🇩🇪 - *Tony Marshall* - *Der Star*
Replaced With *Les Humphries Singers* - *Sing Sang Song*
1999 🇧🇦 - *Hari Mata Hari* - *Starac I More*
Replaced With *Dino & Beatrice* - *Putnici*
1999 🇩🇪 - *Corinna May* - *Hör' Den Kindern Einfach Zu*
Replaced With *Sürpriz* - *Reise Nach Jerusalem - Küdus'e Seyahat*
2002 🇱🇹 - *B'avarija* - *We All*
Replaced With *Aivaras* - *Happy You*
Ukraine was my fav. They could easily win
Good job. Just the information about the reason doesn't stay up long enough.
🙂
Now we have Ukraine 2022 (Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors - Alina Pash) and, allegedly, Malta 2022 (Out of Sight - Emma Muscat) (apparently she's changing her song, just like Malta did in 2016!)
Just a notice, actual winner of Serbia & Montenegro was Flamingosi - Ludi Letnji Ples which was proven later. Also, in 2011 Georgia had "a situation" where they at first wanted to replace the performer but their broadcaster forcefully replaced the singer of Eldrine, Tamar Vadachkoria, with Sopho Toroshelidze and kept the song but they rearranged it to sound a bit different from the original one. And in 2009, audience in Serbia chose OT Band - Blagoslov Za Kraj but jury fixed the results for Marko Kon for some unknown reason.
EBU with Armenia:
EBU with Ukraine:
EBU with Belarus: YOU BETTER WATCH YOUR MOUTH
(I agree with the decision to disqualify Ya Nauchu Tebya though)
EBU with Azerbaijan:
@@Sergioperis When? You mean 2013?
i agree, according to the same standards used for Belarus' song this year, 1944 shouldn't have been able to participate.
The only true difference between the two songs (except for the fact that Ya Nauchu Tebya is ugly as some rotten roadkill) that justified this double standard is that 1944 was useful as pro-NATO propaganda, while the other one was the exact opposite
@@joe_ita tbf 1944 was about a historic genocide, while ya nauchu tebya was about a goddamn dictatorship propoganda
@@ThinkAboutVic but they're both politically charged when framed in their specific context, IMHO :/
the original songs for belarus 2010 and france 2004 were soo much better than the songs they replaced it with omg
Yeah, French one could be easily in top 10
Ukraine 2019, Lebanon 2005 and Turkey 1979...
rotterdam 2020: all songs made me laugh lmao
