ESC Radio Top 250 – “Tattoo” voted No. 1

Close to midnight last night, the countdown of the 250 most voted songs was complete, …

  1. Can’t believe Ell & Nikki arent in the Top 250!!

  2. @Em,

    i think “Running Scared” is one these winners that’s soon forgotten after the contest. The same happened with “Everybody”, the winner song of 2001 and “I Wanna”, the winner of 2002, they aren’t that popular with the Eurovision fans today.

    And to be honest, in my opinion Azerbaijan had several much better entries than Running Scared (for example “Always”, “When the Music Dies”, “Drip Drop”)

    Happy new year! 🙂

  3. Loved listening to this yesterday. But disappointed that Od nas Zavisi wasn’t up there and a few others but loreen was a deserved winner!

    Roll on may when the eurovision 2013 begins!

  4. Nur ein lied-austria 1989 should be there..

  5. Dana THE BEST!!

  6. Were is Sílvía Nott, Congratulations 2006?
    Why La Voix is in this horrible position?
    Sognu, Amaury Vassili?
    Taken by a Stranger in the 53… The song was much better than “My number one” or “Everyway that I can”.
    Satellite the first position!!

  7. In the hit isn’t Lys Assia with the first winner Refrain and other winners, for example Linda Martin, Izhar Cohen, Bucks Fizz, Sandie Shaw and many famous singers and groups, for example Julio Iglesias, Olivia Newton-John, Alice and Helen Kessler.

  8. Why isn’t in the hit Congratulatios of Cliff Richard.
    This song is famous all over the world.
    He is most famous in Britain.
    The special of 50 years of ESC had the same title of this song.
    For december 2013 vote this song!

  9. I think ‘Tornero’ deserves a much better position in this top.

  10. Pastora Soler in the 2nd possition?????? Why?

  11. SunStroke Project & Epic Sax Guy!!!

  12. In my opinion the Buranovskiye Babushki are the best!!!!

  13. Someone said something about ‘Everybody’ & ‘I Wanna’ that aren’t popular with the ESC Fans today, well, i don’t see how, i frankly love those entries, they are among my favorites ever, to be honest. 🙂

    As for ‘Running Scared’, not bad, but nothing really that special, it’s just an ok ballad, for me.
