Revisiting the Rankings: 5

(Note: This is my 300th post!)

Overrated: FYR Macedonia 2008
The majority of the other songs at this ranking are schlager or otherwise very Eurovisiony pop. Only this and Denmark 2012 could even possibly be found outside of this contest. This song does sound like a pop song of its time, yet that's part of the problem. It is one of the better ones of its year, with a great beat and chorus, but it stayed in that year. It just sounds like something that wouldn't have been out of place on the radio, not on a "best Eurovision songs of the past decade" list.

Underrated: Ukraine 2008
I wouldn't call this actually underrated, as I think all these songs are just fine in fifth place, but this is the best of the lot. And it was another second place in the contest, so I had to consider it for this spot for completion. It's slick, professional, sexy, and powerful.

Trivia: Ukraine appeared twice at 5th place, in 2008 and 2009
