BBC Radio 2 listeners to vote for their ultimate 21st century Eurovision song

The UK’s favourite 21st Century Eurovision song will be announced in a Top 40 countdown chart on BBC Sounds and Radio 2, presented by Michelle Visage
www.bbc.co.uk

With just over a month to go until the Grand Final of the Eurovision Song Contest in Basel – the first time the city has hosted the event – Radio 2 has launched a listener vote to discover Your Ultimate 21st Century Eurovision Song!

The vote - which was launched this morning (31 March) on The Scott Mills Breakfast Show (6.30-9.30am) - gives listeners the opportunity to ‘make their mind up’ and cast up to five votes from a list of 67 songs here. The vote closes at 12 noon on Friday 11 April.

The results will be revealed in a Top 40 countdown chart hosted by Radio 2 presenter and lifelong Eurovision superfan, Michelle Visage, exclusively on BBC Sounds from Tuesday 22 April. This is when Radio 2’s celebration of Eurovision launches on BBC Sounds and will also feature Your Ultimate 21st Century Eurovision Song – The Extras (an hour-long bonus playlist featuring the songs that didn’t make the Top 40), Sophie Ellis-Bextor’s Eurovision Kitchen Disco Special, and Rylan and Scott Mills’ Pop Top 10s: Eurovision Icons with guest Duncan James, and more.

The shortlist of 67 songs includes all the winners from the Eurovision Song Contest between 2000-2024, plus a panel of Eurovision experts from Radio 2 and beyond has selected the rest, comprising a selection of runners-up, iconic performances and fan favourites spanning 33 countries.

I just know Tia Kofi is responsible for Hero making the cut :disco:
 
Whoever insisted BRIVIDI merited a placement needs to be banned from all future Eurovision media panels.

They should have included all the runners-up really. Justice for my early 00s Maltese queens!
 
Some of their extra choices are astonishing. Scooch! Tina Karol! John Lundvik!
 
I actually do love what a daffy little mix that list is :D Some real fan favourites in there, and some brilliantly obvious 'favourite of someone in the room when the list was compiled but NOBODY ELSE' choices.
 
It's so typical, I've been saying for years that Estonia deserve a Eurovision winner that's worthy of them, and this year they finally have an (outside) chance and if anything it's with an even WORSE song! :D
 
I agree that it’s the greatest Eurovision song of the 21st century but still bemused to see WRS on the list.

But surely their song this year is the EXCELLENT ‘Love Me Low’ by Anna Sahlene and it will RICHLY deserve its INEVITABLE victory.

On an entirely unrelated note, @Suomi please let my family go.

I had it narrowed down to 7 songs including the two Loreen ones but I figured she’d be alright.

And my finger was hovering over Adrenalina for a while but she’s here for a good time, not a long time.
 
I'm finding it nigh on IMPOSSIBLE to get this down to five.

God bless the Eurovision. Imagine a world where we didn't have (or know about) all of these wonderful wonderful songs
