  • It's a list of 50 #Eurovision songs since 2009 which were hurt by televoting points the most. For that, the difference in the jury score and the televote score of every song was divided by the maximum possible amount of points from the televoting or the jury.
    The video includes songs which competed in the grand finals from 2009 to 2021 excluding 2013 (because of lack of needed data, split average rankings were published instead of split scores).
    In case of a tie, the difference in televote's and jury's placements is the tie-breaker.
    All rights belongs to EBU.

      As an italian I think our best female performance (since 2011) was the one of Nina Zilli, but unfortunately she decided to sing mostly in english and the song was not a banger. Francesca Michielin was still inexperienced or she would have had a better result, Emma had a really poor performance.

      If they also consider staging very important then why did they only give 130 points to Lazarev? His staging was epic. And the melody in Lazarev's act was at least a bit more... original ...? Don't know how to put it. But at least I didn't have a feeling of having heard it somewhere on radio before when I first listened to it, like I had it with Heroes. Why was the score this different?
      Jury pushes ballads, then why did they killed the Polish guy from 2016 this mercilessly?
      The jury votes completely non-political. Then why in the world did they give Jamala's political song this many points? Usually such songs are obvious non-qualifiers for the jury and are "saved" by the public.
      It seems that the jury doesn't have any obvious judging criteria and just randomly give their points to something everyone else votes for.
      I mean are they actually judging the live act everyone else sees or what? If a jury is actually needed, then please with a clear sheet of judging criteria, every juror has to provide a reason why they put this or that song in this or that place so one can't say: "We are in conflict with that and that country so we give their act 0 and our 12 goes to some "neutral" country, which is Sweden more often than not". And they actually have to judge the same act as the public and not some behind-seven-locks-performance-nobody-else-sees. Otherwise it's just a farce.

What is really bad are the strategical votes (like Cyprus/Greece, or Armenia/Georgia/Azerbaijan), ESPECIALLY from the jury, that should be impartial at this. Sometimes the don't even hide it, by giving 12 points to a song that barely got anything from anyone else. It should be taken with less urge of winning, and more curiosity of who you actually consider your best/favourite.

    There is some stuff I understand since it was very obviously overrated (Heroes, Ingrosso, Nobody but you, je me casse, Growing up is getting old) but there were obviously very good songs in the mix (Sound of Silence, Tonight Again, Love injected, Love is on my side, Kuula). It happens when the public opinion differs to much from the jury. Noticed that Sweden (or stuff written by Swedish songwriters) takes up many spaces? Maybe the jury should start thinking?

      The jury ranks the song, meaning its not necessary the favoruite of the jury getting their twelwe. Swedish pop is maybe not the no. 1 by anyone, but it's hard to rank them last. Juries ranks divisive entries low. So, 2021, 2 members of the swedish jury ranked Ukraine highest, while it was ranked last and third last by 2 other members resulting in Ukraine "only" reciving 8 points. Swedish pop is likeble enough for the industry professionals
