Eurovision 1994 my top 25

Hello, and welcome to another episode of this ESC series of tops, and I go back to April 30, 1994 when the 39th edition of the contest was held in Dublin, Ireland after Niamh Kavanagh’s victory in Millstreet last year, and it was the second year in a row that the contest was held in Ireland. 25 countries took part, while Belgium, Denmark, Israel, Italy, Slovenia, Turkey and Luxembourg withdrew, the latter hasn’t returned since, Estonia, Hungary, Romania, Slovakia, Lithuania, Poland and Russia debuted in this contest. The winner was, again, Ireland with Paul Harrington & Charlie McGettigan and the song Rock n’ Roll Kids, making this their 6th victory, a record at the time and the third time in a row Ireland won the contest. And now, let’s review the songs. I want to say that the RTE Orchestra here is wonderful and I’m crazy for the drums. 

1st Place: GERMANY/MeKaDo-Wir geben ‘ne party (Real Placing: 3rd-128 points) 

Legend says that if you find a live version of this, you can make a wish. Jokes aside, THIS IS EXCELLENT, this is catchy, funny and the music is so modern for the time, I like the performance and they are so nice together, I’m in love with this song and yeah, this is my personal winner and IMO this deserved, along with Poland and Hungary, the victory. 

2nd Place: POLAND/Edyta Górniak-To nie já! (Real Placing: 2nd-166 points)

Oh this song is amazing as well, Edyta’s voice is so out of this world and the music is pretty, the chorus is so powerful and the verses are calm and soothing, just a perfect balance. What a debut from Poland and it’s still their best result, you can do it Poland!!

3rd Place: HUNGARY/Friderika Bayer-Kinek mondjam el vétkeimet? (Real Placing: 4th-122 points)

This song is so calm and beautiful, her voice is perfect and the music is so well done. This is one of my favorite songs from the 90′s and this is the perfect debut for Hungary, I’m in love with this song. 

4th Place: IRELAND/Paul Harrington & Charlie McGettigan-Rock n’ Roll kids (Real Placing: 1st-226 points)

Our winning song of the night, at first I disliked this so much, but then I started to appreciate it’s beauty, the music is very cute, they are good singers and the lyrics are so good. I don’t think this is a winner but is such a cute song. 

5th Place: ESTONIA/Silvi Vrait-Nagu merelaine (Real Placing: 24th-2 points)

Ok so why this song finished second last? I LOVE THIS ONE, the music is stunning and her voice is such a delight to hear, the chorus is very effective and it’s one of my favorite Estonian entries ever. 

6th Place: FINLAND/CatCat-Bye bye baby (Real Placing: 22nd-11 points)

ONE OF FINLAND’S MOST UNDERRATED SONGS, this sounds so 90′s and it’s modern and fresh, they sing nice and the music is pretty strong, but maybe the orchestra kinda ruined it a bit, because the studio version is miles better, anyway, I love this song so much. 

7th Place: CYPRUS/Evridiki-Ime anthropos ki ego (Real Placing: 11th-51 points)

 Oh Evrikidi I love you, this song is so powerful and dramatic but this works so well for me, her voice is as good as in 1992 and the music is very nice, I love the bridge after the chorus and her performance is so amazing. 

8th Place: UNITED KINGDOM/Francis Ruffelle-We will be free (Lonely symphony) (Real Placing: 10th-63 points)

This is such a song for 1994, modern, cute and the intro is stunning, everything here works well and her voice is amazing, the chorus is memorable and there’s a musical bridge at the end that is very exciting and wonderful. What a song!

9th Place: NORWAY/Elisabeth Andreassen & Jan Werner Danielsen-Duett (Real Placing: 6th-76 points)

ELISABETH <3 This song is pretty, the music is so good and their voices match so well together, the verses are nice and the chorus is wonderful. A nice entry from Norway, and one of the best ballads of that year. 

10th Place: RUSSIA/Youddiph-Vechny strannik (Real Placing: 9th-70 points)

This entry as well is beautiful, the music changes on this one are so effective, the verses are very sweet and the chorus is powerful. Also her voice is stunning and the dress is weird but effective. A nice debut for one of the powerhouses of the contest. 

11th Place: ROMANIA/Dan Bittman-Dincolo de nori (Real Placing: 21st-14 points)

This entry makes me cry so much, his voice is on point and it’s perfect, the music is so touching and cute. I don’t speak Romanian but this makes me shiver. An amazing debut from Romania, shame on the juries that night. 

12th Place: PORTUGAL/Sara Tavares-Chamar a música (Real Placing: 8th-73 points)

Oh what a wonderful song, the music is beautiful and her voice is so pretty, also what a power does she has in the chorus, sweet but strong. The lyrics are also beautiful. Again Portugal giving us a great song. 

13th Place: ICELAND/Sigga-Nætur (Real Placing: 12th-49 points)

What a nice song from Iceland, the vibe in this one is pretty and what a voice does she has, the chorus is the best part on this and yeah, I like this entry so much. 

14th Place: SWEDEN/Roger Pontare & Marie Bergman-Stjärnorna (Real Placing: 13th-48 points)

Again a pretty ballad with two wonderful singers, I’m in love with Roger’s voice and Marie is such an elegant lady on stage, their voices are amazing together and the music is very charming, a nice entry from Sweden.  

15th Place: CROATIA/Tony Cetinsky-Nek’ ti bude ljubav sva (Real Placing: 16th-27 points)

Awww this song is pretty, his voice is stunning and the music is very good, also he’s very handsome. I love the chorus so much and he delivers all his voice there. 

16th Place: MALTA/Chris & Moira-More than love (Real Placing: 5th-96 points)

Again a nice melody with nice singers, I’m crazy for the music and the feeling on this songs, but maybe this song had so much to offer and didn’t do it. Maybe it was too much for a top 5 but I still like it. 

17th Place: AUSTRIA/Petra Fey-Für den Frieden die Welt (Real Placing: 17th-19 points)

The music here is so good but I’m not so fond of her voice, and I like the chorus so much in this one. A nice average song from Austria that I think it has potential but failed to deliver it. 

18th Place: BOSNIA & HERZEGOVINA/Alma & Dejan-Ostani kraj mene (Real Placing: 15th-39 points)

This is such an amazing song, both are amazing singers and the music is so lovely, the cheering at the start is overwhelming and it makes me feel happy for them, a nice song from B&H and I feel bad because of putting this so low. 

19th Place: SWITZERLAND/Duilio-Sto pregando (Real Placing: =19th-15 points) 

Another ballad with a nice singer and a cute melody, but, as my problem with many of the songs that year, it’s forgettable, even I must admit that the chorus is the best part of it. 

20th Place: SLOVAKIA/Tublatanka-Nekonečná pieseň (Real Placing: =19th-15 points) 

The beginning is very nice and I love the verses, but my problem here is the chorus. kinda falls flat and it’s so contrasting to the verses, but still, I find this a nice debut. 

21st Place: THE NETHERLANDS/Willeke Alberti-Waar is de zon (Real Placing: 23rd-4 points)

This ballad is so nice, but in a contest full of ballads, this fails to impress me, even I find the music lovely, it’s kinda boring, her voice is pretty though. 

22nd Place: GREECE/Kostas Bigalis & The Sea Lovers-To trehandiri (Real Placing: 14th-44 points)

This intro is wonderful but the song turns to be repetitive and boring for me, although the music is so nice and tropical, but still, the song isn’t nice for me because of the chorus. 

23rd Place: LITHUANIA/Ovidijus Vyšniauskas-Lopšinė mylimai (Real Placing: 25th-0 points/last)

A song that is nice but unfortunately isn’t memorable and it’s kinda boring, his voice is okay but overall this song isn’t good enough for me to place it higher, also, this didn’t deserve nul points. 

24th Place: SPAIN/Alejandro Abad-Ella no es ella (Real Placing: 18th-17 points)

Oh another song I can’t stand this song as well, the lyrics aren’t so good and his voice is not for me, the music is kinda alright but still this song isn’t great. 

25th Place: FRANCE/Nina Morato-Je suis un vrai garçon (Real Placing: 7th-74 points) 

I hate this song so much, and it’s weird that I hate a song, this entry annoys me so much and her singing isn’t pleasant for me and the music makes me feel angry for some reason, the lyrics are amazing but the song...
