Are there any last places that you'd swap with the winners?

Maybe this sounds like a weird question, but hear me out...

Eurovision 2008 San Marino HD: Miodio - Complice

This song is brilliant, easily the best thing that San Marino's ever sent to ESC. It's intense, it's heartfelt, the performance was great. I don't understand why it came dead last.

Meanwhile, at the other end of the scoreboard... Believe is a song that exists. I'll just say that because I don't want to be too unpleasant about it. It took the contest to a place where things like this were happening: Moscow riot police violently break up gay pride rally

I'd love to swap those two songs around. Valentina's backyard 2009😎

So If you had the power to swap any year's last place with the winner, who would you choose?

Absolute injustice right there.

I wouldn't say Germany were the best this year, but I'd have taken theirs over Sweden any day. (Also their cover of Cha Cha Cha is amazing.)

Eburakonic_Entity,

Agreed, Best act Germany have sent in years and they absolutely didn't deserve last place. I felt Sweden's was a non-event, wasn't even on my radar as one to watch out for.

Have you listened to any more of their stuff? I've had them on a loop on Spotify basically all week, great band, Blood and Glitter was definitely one of their weaker songs (and it was great)
