Revisiting the Rankings: 19
Overrated: Greece 2007
It's Greece's cliche type of entry. It's supposed to make you dance, but it's a little underenthused and tired, especially when held in contrast to their 2012 song that also appears at this rank. I'm not convinced he really cares about that mythical Maria.
Underrated: Russia 2010
It's still secretly and weirdly brilliant. Folky in a retro way but not horribly dated. The live performance, too, was great.
Trivia: Greece appears twice at 19th place (2007 and 2012).
On Bulgaria 2008: This song was a little ahead of its time, predating the recent influx of dance songs. Compare it to 2013, it's simpler. Less complicated can be good, but it's also less polished.
Other Songs: France 2006, Montenegro 2009, Iceland 2011, Slovenia 2013
