From sexy moves to underwater love, from child abuse to new hope, from pig’s hearts to generous cleavage, the official videos of this year’s Eurovision contestants have it all. But whose video is the best? You decide!
It’s time to judge neither the songs nor the voices, but the cinematography, the editing and the congruence between text and images. Did the director do a great job conveying the artists’ message? Were you swayed by the video to like the song more? Or did they mess it up and left you shaking your head in disbelief?
With most contestants releasing official videos this year, you have plenty to choose from. If you need to refresh your memory, click on the links below and watch the clips, then come back and vote for your favourite(s) below.

malta and poland
My top 5: 1. Montenegro- love the balkan beat and that it stuck to its national language! Samo napred Crno Goro! 2. Armenia- was able to understand his english unlike MANY eurovision entries but sounded too similar to every edm song out there 3. Sweden- her voice was good and had a nice average ballad except it was hard to understand her english in some parts 4. Netherlands- very nice voices and beat although sounded like they copied some american indie band 5. Greece- love the beat! English was poor at parts but was one of the few upbeat songs… Read more »
MALTA BY FAR THE BEST ..
@ Michael Joergensen – Thank you for your reaction. Denmark does not have an official music video this year (just like Emmelie didn’t have one until after the contest). Basim’s video is the one from the National Final, and that unfortunately does not count.
Funny about your listing of the participating countries.
You seem to forget that the country of Denmark is hosting the event as Denmark won in 2013, but you have not included Denmark.
Is that because the artist is not actually danish ( he is Moroccan ) or is it because he copied the refrain directly from the song “You to me are everything” 🙂 ?
Armenia has the best video and song
maltese video is the best
Romania has not copied anything, Spain’s asshole! UK NO VOYE FOR SPAIN !!
best video from MALTA …
just watch Mariya Yaremchuk’s “Tick-Tock”, everything is amazing about her video.
Mariya Yaremchuk, for sure. Just watch the vid!
Mariya from Ukraine!
UKRAINE! MARIYA YAREMCHUK!

@DR agree with you in every way. Go Molly!!
LOVE & PEACE IN WEST & EAST!
i think that everything is honest in this poll.Well, i’m reading comments of this poll and it’s make me angry. i’m not armenian,but why people are so stupids?? can’t you see thet Armenian’s song,video,artist is the best this year? And there’s no any problem. Just relax !!! it’s made me crazy, when people says “it’s all armenian diaspora”… guyssss whay that armenian diaspora didn’t vote for Doryans in 2013? there’s no any logic.Annoying comments from idiot people!
Whatever, my favourite video is Armenia and my votes go to Armenia.
ATLETICO DE MADRID – REAL MADRID ,FINAL CHAMPIONS LEAGUE ,THE FIRST TIME AN EUROPEAN CITY HAVE 2 TEAMS IN THE FINAL,OEOEOEOEOEOE
everything armenia first but armenian bitch diaspora
When I read these comments it makes me think that we should not allow for comments on polls, or even at all. People have become racist, argumentative, xenophobic , and even one person tell the UK (my country) to f**k off. For starter I don’t believe wiwibloggs is doing enough to stop this. The main problem however is that it has no place in eurovision. I’m 18 and this is my 13 eurovision, and never have felt so proud by my entry. However it is all taken away by the horrible comments on not just this page, but on so… Read more »
I have no doubt that MONTENEGRO has the most beautiful and well produced video of the year… so strong and wonderful images. ARMENIA and AZERBAIJAN also have really nice videos… HUNGARY, SAN MARINO, ITALY, UK, SWEDEN and ROMANIA come after.
Ok, my favorite video (not song, please know the difference, yes I speak to all those who voted for ridiculous videos) is the Montenegro one, it has a sweet story, beautiful scenes and landscapes and the photgraphy is gorgeous, really beautiful video. Armenia’s video it is also awesome the final shot is beautiful and it fits perfectly with the video. Estonia with Amazing for me has the best dance coreography and I couldn’t let that pass unnoticed. Poland and Iceland have also honorable mentions because the videos are funny and colorful, the shots and props simply spice everything, I sincerely… Read more »
I think the new official video of Molly “Children of the Universe” is the best among them all. A low-budget video but still got the vibe. Very contemporary and stylish on its own way. This video could make Eurovision becoming cool again..
I like the greek video gives me good vibes
ARMENIA AND GREECE!
For best MV (not the song), Montenegro got my vote, so touching with its beautiful scencery
all videos are fabolous except spain ( boring in every way )
@Andres indeed lol hatred spreading “machines” everywhere ….
—
And thanks for your good words !! ;). Likewise bro !!
The end of the music video of Armenia is sooo romantic. …..hmm….that kiss.. <3 …. and I like the video of Hungary and Romania as well…. :))
So funny that azeris started writh under foreign names =D I’m speaking about Jordan =D This year like only videos from Malta,Spain and Armenia,I hope Armenia or Greece will win.Armenian hugs and kisses from your brother country GREECE,love you sooooooo much,I will vot for you and I’m sure our 12 will be your and not only ours =D Good Luck to every country.
Obviously it’s either France or Iceland.
Armenia’s or Swedish videos are the epitomy of cliche
Hungarian one is good but not my cup of tea.
The best video is…. Paula & Ovi Miracle…
I hate spanish eurofans! NO VOTE FOR SPAIN!
@Med I am glad that our fights make people to take popcorn and enjoy it after hard working day lol.hmmm seriously no comment …;) Well maybe we love each other so much that we can not live without each other and we express our love by fighting ? Guess what we were way too close before like 2 good brothers (that’s what older generation tells ).. HUH Yea seriously !! and suddenly some politicians came between us like a black cat and now you see clearly what’s happening . But life is a interesting thing we be friends again one… Read more »
Isn’t it funny how most of the votes come from Armenians? Talk about being bias! Wiwi, you need to bare in mind that the poll is rigged by those who are being extremely patriotic. Instead of being a fair vote, these bias morons are ruining it. And I thought Azerbaijan was bad with rigging…
The best video : Romania
Best Song: Armenia Sweden and Israel! Vote for this!
Armenia go 🙂 you are best
The spaniards vote here all time! Is not valid the final results! Go away Spaniards!
Armenia iz the best…
Because @Armenian guy, those “fights” between, and I quote: “Russia-Ukraine”, “FYR Macedonia -Greece “, “Albania -Montenegro -Serbia” – are not even near the level of fight between you, Armenia and your neighbors Azerbaijan. It’s like comparing minor technical glitch in the kitchen with the Chernobyl disaster. Or something like that. The above mentioned countries, all together with the rest of Europe can grab some popcorn and see you two fight with words (and I hope that WORDS will be the only mean in terms of war before that stops too).
@Aaron take it easy my friend.Both Azeris and Armenians have right to support their countries .
There are many nations who fight with each other included “Russia-Ukraine”, “FYR Macedonia -Greece “,
“Albania -Montenegro -Serbia ” etc . should Wiwi ban all of them ?? I do not think so 😉
I wish Wiwibloggs will just ban people who try to join this site that are from Armenia and Azerbaijan. Can’t we just stop them two Trolling.
HA-YAS-TAN. HA-YAS-TAN)))))
ATTENTION: TURKISH ESC WEBSITE SAY “KEMAL OZTURK IS NEW GENERAL MANAGER OF TRT” IS THIS TRUE, WIWI? http://www.turesc.net/2014/05/kemal-ozturk-trt-genel-muduru-oldu.html
Armenia has the best video hands down! Nothing compares to it. And I’m not saying it because I’m Armenian. Btw my favorite song is not Aram’s “not alone,” but the video is by far the best.
I love, love Montenegro’s and Israel’s songs.
