I’m running to save my haunted soul: An Ode to the Amazing Songs We Lost in the Eurovision National Final Season 2022

YouTube Playlist Here

National final season always means that we lose some fantastic songs that won’t ever get to grace to the big ESC stage, but I can memorialize all the other tracks I love here. This list contains the songs that got away, as well as some of the guilty pleasures, and songs I simply enjoy listening to, from the NF season of 2022.

Note that this is my personal taste, so I might be missing something you jive with. Songs are arranged by flow, not in a ranking. Some videos I will have to replace with another upload at some point (FiK namely). I went with studio recordings to be consistent (barring the bonus track).

This playlist is in no way meant to put down the actual winners.
