Ukraine skips ESC 2015
After two more or less confirmed comebacks to Eurovision (Cyprus and Bosnia), we now have our first withdrawal: Ukraine. Due to financial and political reasons, broadcaster NTU - understandably enough - has priorities other than an ESC participation in Vienna. The...

Line-up check 2015: Macedonia
The Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, as we're supposed to refer to them in a Eurovision context, have a patchy history in our beloved competition. They've never reached the top ten on the scoreboard - indeed, the left-hand side is fairly unknown territory for...
Line-up check 2015: Estonia
Estonia has struggled throughout most of the last decade, but in the last six years, the country has at least managed to qualify for the final more often than not. Two top ten finishes within the last ten years isn't a great record, but many countries still dream...
Line-up check 2015: Denmark
Last year's host, Denmark, is one of those rather unstable countries. On the one hand, the country recently won twice within 15 years. On the other hand, there have been bottom-5 placements and failures to qualify at all. After a few years with mostly good results,...
Line-up check 2015: Czech Republic
2015 marks the return of the Czech Republic after sitting out for the last five years, and there are many things to be learned from this return - for example, the importance of context. One could say that the Czech effort for the 2015 has the potential to give the...
Line-up check 2015: Cyprus
For ESC fans of a certain age, Cyprus probably still feels like one of the "newer" participating countries, having made its debut as late as 1981. However, this year's 60th edition of the Eurovision Song contest will feature the 32nd entry from the island in the...
Line-up check 2015: Belgium
In the last ten years, Belgium has only qualified for the final on two occasions, in 2010 and 2013. Indeed, it has only achieved one single top five placing (Sanomi, 2nd place in 2003) since winning with Sandra Kim in 1986. This year, it's RTBF's turn again to select...
Line-up check 2015: Belarus
Belarus is often one of the earliest countries to select its Eurovision entry, and the national final staging - and the quality of the webstream! - isn't always the best. Coupled with the local producers' propensity for changing the selected song after the...
Line-up check 2015: Azerbaijan
Azerbaijan has still only a short history in Eurovision. However, it's a very successful one: Seven participations so far, of which six resulted in a top 10 placement, including one victory. It was only at their latest ESC appearance, in Copenhagen last year, that...
