Well, let's see... SanRemo 2011, Raphael Gualazzi won. I didn't know anything about Eurovision. After a couple of weeks later I saw an advertising on the internet page about Raphael Gualazzi and Eurovision. Then I decided to watch Eurovision song contest. I watched semi finals and final but it was surely boring for me. I only liked Hungary and Italy for the first time. So I voted for Kati. After our taking 2nd place and Kati's awful result, I decided not to watch this show anymore but next year Nina Zilli made me think about it again. 2012 was pretty much better a year after 2011's awful year. So just like that I became a fan of Eurovision. :)

I started to watch it "seriously" in 2006. But I started to watch the semi finals in 2009... when we had the channel that broadcast the semis where I live ! :lol: But I discovered there were semi-finals in 2008... :? :lol: In fact, each year, the commentators explain that Switzerland and Belgium haven't been selected for the final, but they don't explain how ! :D Oh just in 2006, we wondered where was the Coco Dance of Séverine Ferrer who was highly popular... as laughed at a lot in France ! xrofl3

The first time that I watched the Eurovision song contest was back in 2002. I was zapping the TV channels and incidentally I got ET1 and I watched the contest! It was just the time that Cyprus was ready to perform, they were first in the running order. Since then, I watch the contest every year.

Pretty much as most Turks, I started watching in 2004 and I know all the songs before the contest since 2009.

-I was born in 1995
-I remember watching EMA for the first time in 2002
-In 2005 I decided to watch the next eurovision because I really liked the last two winning songs ("My number one" and "Wild dances") and some of the past slovene entries (2001,2002 and 2005)
-In 2006 I became a fan,maybe because my favorite song won!
-In 2008 I listened to the songs before the actual contest for the first time
-In 2009 and 2010 I've watched some national finals
-Since 2011 I'm paying attention to ALL national finals
-By now,I know all the songs from 1990 to 2013
-In the future I'll know all the songs form 1956 to 201? :cool:

returned?

Serbia and all the ex-Yugoslav countries participated as Yugoslavia until 1993 and then when all these countries were separated, we had songs from Bosnia/Herzegovina, Croatia, F.Y.R. of Macedonia and Slovenia. Serbia/Montenegro debuted in 2004.

My first was in 2005 - i remembered "Touch my fire", but missed 2006 and 2007. But then in 2008 i was sitting and hearing Shady Lady and Hero. Then i've been a fan since!
