Eurovision: Underperforming favourites of the 2010s Pre-Contest
Here's the sequel to my video about the most underestimated entries of the 2010s. I present to you: the fallen favourites of the 2010s!
In my previous video I was talking about how one of my favourite things in Eurovision is when an entry that I thought nothing of before the contest makes me take notice - serious notice - when I'm watching the contest. Well, not gonna lie, I also do get a bit of enjoyment when an entry that I thought was way overhyped before the contest doesn't live up to the hype. Now I don't think that all of these songs deserved their lower-than-expected places. Actually some of them *cough* Norway 2011 & 2012 *cough* I still haven't got over.
But anyway. Here's how I made this video. I checked the OGAE rankings and the winning betting odds about a month before each contest to check which entries were expected to do well. I only included entries where the average placing from the OGAE poll and the bookies was 15 or higher - they had to be favourites after all. And then I calculated the difference between that and the actual place they ended up in.
With regards to the entries that stayed in the semi-finals I calculated the average points per country for each non-qualifier, so that I could compare the two semi-finals. I hence ended up with a ranking for all the entries in each year.
I gathered the 40+1 most overrated entries before the contests and then ranked them from least to most overrated in this video aka "the UK, the Nordics, et al".
Obviously this is not science and I don't expect it to be treated as such. It's just a fun video, so take it for what it is! I hope you enjoy the video nonetheless! Don't forget to subscribe for more content!
