I've probably listened to at least half of all Eurovision entries at least once, and opinions are fun to debate over. That's why I thought I'd ask this question to you all: What is, in your opinion, the worst entry (or your least-favorite) entry of all time? I tend to like the songs that others hate or ones that ranked near last, because back in the day those were the ones that were the most innovative. And be open-minded, folks - there's more than just the last 10 years for me, it's this unfortunate monstrosity that was literally the first ESC song of the new millennium (2000) this is is what welcomed us to the 2000s, folks. This.

As an Israeli, I can approve Although there's a song I consider worse:

I don't consider Israel 2000 to be up there with the worst. The song is pretty catchy, and the singers are trying so hard to fail that it's funny Here are a few songs from the last century that I consider up there with the worst. (Note that this is my opinion and I have nothing against people liking these songs. Some of them had good results. And there are plenty of songs from the 21st century that worse than these ) The song isn't the most interesting, and the singer sounds constantly out of breath. This is a very incoherent entry. The choices of instrument are just bizarre imo, the lead singer screams at times, while the backing singer keeps going 'di-di-di-di', which is really distracting. Half of this song is just the lead singer screaming into the mic. That being said, the song isn't awful The vocal performance is very shaky, and the backing singer isn't really helping matters. Well deserved This may be the single most boring performance of the history of the contest. Still - apparently some people liked it, because it got 7th place I remember someone on the forums (Callum, I think) mentioned believing this to be the worst entry of all time, and I can see why. The singing is just...painful And the worst ESC song of the 20th century (imo) is... The performance is really cringey, and they don't even bother to try to sing half the time. I find it really insulting that this finished 8th

Who can forget this? AND this?!? The UK kept sending travesty after travesty last decade (with a few exceptions, of course).

I actually liked "Teenage Life" a few years ago but nowadays I agree with its ESC result

^At least 'Cry Baby' was only out of tune at the beginning. tAtu were out of tune for the whole thing, and they still somehow came 3rd
