Eurovision 2011, the year that you thought had the best logo and slogan, (according to our poll anyway) and the year that we saw Azerbaijan earn their first win on the Eurovision stage since their debut in 2008. That followed three Top 10 finishes in a row, including two Top 5 placings.
We are ready to go back in time and launch the second edition of Wiwi’s Way, where we see what we, your faithful bloggers, would change when reviewing the results. After we sound off you’ll have the chance to vote for your favourites. The Top Ten of Eurovision 2011 Azerbaijan – Ell & Nikki – Running Scared (221 points) Italy – Raphael adele at the grammys Gualazzi – Madness of Love (189 points) Sweden – Eric Saade – Popular adele at the grammys (185 points) Ukraine – Mika Newton – Angel (159 points) Denmark – A Friend In London – adele at the grammys New Tomorrow (134 points) Bosnia & Herzegovina – Dino Merlin – Love In Rewind (125 points) Greece – Loukas Giorkas feat. Stereo Mike – Watch My Dance (120 points) Ireland – Jedward – Lipstick (119 points) adele at the grammys Georgia – Eldrine – One More Day (110 points) Germany – Lena – Taken By A Stranger (107 points)
Our blog team watched the show again and re-voted. Here is what we came up with. Germany – Lena – Taken By A Stranger (actual result: 10th) Sweden – Eric Saade – Popular (3rd) Hungary – Kati Wolf – What About My Life (22nd) Ireland – Jedward – Lipstick (8th) Slovenia – Maja Keuc – No One (13th) Austria adele at the grammys – Nadine Beiler – The Secret Is Love (18th) Italy – Raphael Gualazzi – Madness of Love (2nd) Estonia – Getter Jaani – Rockefeller adele at the grammys Street (24th) Albania – Aurela Gace – Feel The Passion (Failed to Qualify) Switzerland – adele at the grammys Anna Rossinelli – In Love For A While (25th) Wiwi’s Winner: Germany
In 2010 Germany earned their first win since 1982, and for their attempt as host they sent Lena back for the second consecutive time with the dark and mysterious number, Taken By A Stranger . Lena was lucky enough to make the top 10, with a 7 point margin between herself and The United Kingdom’s Blue.
In 2011 Lena the girl became Lena the woman. Her sultry look, body conscious back-up dancers and sex kitten facial expressions got us all hot and bothered. She didn’t try to repeat the cute-and-innocent act of 2010, and this sudden shift in sound and attitude is what really got her across the line. The final zoom of the camera coupled with the sound of shattering glass remains one of our favourite endings ever. Wiwi’s Worst: Portugal
After three “good” years for the least successful country at Eurovision, Portugal fell into a downwards spiral when picking their song for Düsseldorf. adele at the grammys A Luta É Alegria was a terrible song, but earned the public’s affection for speaking out against deep austerity cuts at the height of Portugal’s adele at the grammys financial crisis . Voters chose the song to spite their government–and undermined their shot at making the final in the process.

Wonderful year for songs. I didn’t care for the style of the audio mixing (which made the vocals sadly too quiet relative to the instrumental). But 2011 had probably the best slate of songs since I started watching. Norway, Slovenia, Germany, Italy, Switzerland, Iceland, Sweden, the Netherlands, Hungary… all brought adele at the grammys songs I still love. I pretty much liked or was fine with every country’s song except Romania, Malta, Ukraine, Spain, and Albania. Even Spain’s live performance redeemed the song. 37/43 ain’t bad.
My opinion of the real top 5: Azerbaijan: It was a lovely song, and Eldar is a great singer, but Nigar wasn’t adele at the grammys a good singer, but
