Jeez, Ireland in the 90's really is disliked here isn't it? 1993 :ie: win is one of my favourites and it's slated here. :uk: should still have won that year tho.

1. :nl: The Netherlends 2019. I really hate his uooooo-uooooo. the lyrics are really good. But the voice is very unpleasant

2. :az: Azerbaijan 2011. This is a very dull song. And the duet does not look at all together, their voices do not fit well. One of the most boring winners.

3. :ua: 2016. I know this is unpatriotic. But I pay no attention to the countries. Only songs are important to me. I just don't like her way of singing. But the tree was beautiful.

4. :il: 2018. It was bright and creative, but I don't like her voice. And maybe I shouldn't find fault with a funny song, but I don't like the fact that the feminist message is combined with clucking. The cultural context is to blame, but in our country silly girls were called chickens. Therefore, for me it slightly discredited the message. :(

5. I'm sorry, but I don't like almost all the winners from :ie:Ireland except 1996 (I like 1996). I can't say anything bad, I don't hate them, but every time I fall asleep in the middle of any of their songs.

6. :il:1979 Same as with songs from Ireland

6. :ee: 2001 - I don’t feel anything about this song and I don’t understand why it won.

7. :de: 2010 - I remember how I swore and asked "But why? What did they find in this?" But now I think it doesn't sound so bad. But there were still a lot of best songs that year.

I'm okay with these songs, but I don't see them as winners: :ru:2008 (great year but mediocre winner), :pt:2017 (good song, but a little boring, although that year it stood out + I did not like the hype around Sobral and I don't like his snobbery) and :se:2015 (generic song, flat emotions, only a good production saved this song for me)

Both:nl: 2019 and :il: 2018 were awful. Both are very cheap songs and undeserving winners imo.
:se: 1984 is tragic. For sure one of the worst entries ever from Sweden and yet it won. I also found 1991 overrated: I preferred France as a winner by a lot.
:lv: 2002 is horrendous beyond words, sorry if I'm being mean. But c'mon: a song like that could have won only in the weakest decade of Eurovision history.
:ee: 2001 was fine but really really overrated and surely not a winner. France and Greece were a lot better.
I can't stand :ie: 1996. "She is the voice in the wind and a growing pain". I really don't like her voice.
:at: 1966 was awful. A real snoozefest. Expecially coming the year after France Gall's win.
The '70s were awesome, and the best decade ever with so many evergreens and amazing winners, but I find :il: 1978 an abomination (it is just a a ba ni bi a ba e be na bi bi all the song) and :ie: 1970 a song which could have difficulties to win even a Junior Eurovision nowadays.

But the worst of all worsts is :ru: 2008: I just come back time to time to listen to it and really I can't explain to myself how that won. In my opinion, the worst winner ever. I hate that song and that performance so much.

:lu: 1983
:it: 1990
:ie: 1994
:ie: 1996
:se: 1999
:ru: 2008
:az: 2011
:se: 2015

That's it I guess. I only considered years since 1980. I also dont enjoy the winners from 2000-2002 but there weren't that many better options during those years.

From 2010 to 2021 :

:il: 2018
:dk: 2013
:se: 2012

The rest for me are good winners, well :dk: 2013 and :se: 2012 weren't "bad" honestly but not good enough to be winners imo

I strongly dislike :il: 2018 tho

:ee: 2001
:lv: 2002
:ru: 2008
:de: 2010
:az: 2011
:pt: 2017

2008 & 2010 are mostly here because they didn't deserve to win in my book, by themselves they are ok-ish; for :ru: 2008 especially, when it was in the same contest with "Oro", I can only feel dissapointment
