It’s New Year’s Eve. Aside from welcoming in another year, the day has an even bigger event for Eurovision fans — the return of the Eurovision Top 250 Countdown, often known as ESC 250.
The yearly poll sees fans pick their favourite 250 entries from the contest’s history. Voting for ESC 250 2022 took place earlier this month.
Eurovision 2012 champion Loreen has sat atop the podium for the past ten years with her song “Euphoria” — that’s also known as ‘every single year since Loreen won Eurovision’.
But all good things must come to an end. Shortly before midnight, Europe crowned a new countdown queen with Spain’s Chanel taking “SloMo” all the way to the top.
Only one other song from the 2022 contest managed to make the Top 10 — with Sweden’s Cornelia placing third, just behind Loreen. Turin alums Konstrakta, Sam Ryder, and S10 all managed to make the Top 20 too.
Last year, no songs from the cancelled 2020 contest made the Top 10, but this year Diodato managed to place 9th. His interval performance in Turin no doubt placed him firmly on many people’s minds.

What do you make of the 2022 ESC 250 countdown? Are you surprised by any of the results? Let us know in the comments below.
Why is It 250? 250 is too many. I’ d understand top 50 maybe even top 100 but top 250???.
Congrats to Chanel but why do people get so mad about Who comes 1st on a poll?
Because humans are self-absorbed. 🙂
In the netherlands we have a Top2000 (not eurovision related) and even a top4000. And with all the eurovision songs there are a top250 is quite low. There are 1643 eurovision songs (not even counting 2020)
I remember how Spanish people hated Chanel when she won and now they all been supportive …
People voted for it. You don’t nhave to like it but others do.
Chanel did the best diva pop performance in Eurovision and that´s the why she has won the ESC250. Helena Paparizzou was a icon for that, Eleni Foureira become an icon for that, and now Chanel. She will be remembered until another pop diva can reach her level. And we all know that is not going to happen very soon.
Really spanish fans did this? Did also the spanish fans made Chanel third in televote? Chanel was voted for 39 of 40 countries in the televote. Accept the truth. All Europe has voted for her here. Her performance is the most viewed in 2022 and the most disscussed. She made an impact and that why she won this poll.
Or just enjoy the results as they are because the point of the countdown is for the fandom to celebrate ahead of the New Year.
In the same way that taking part in fan polls will not give Warrior Nun another season beyond just having fun with it with other people.
its ok to be delusional javi
EBU has said that Spain was second with the real points. That was the only change. Please stop being a loser and read the informantion and don´t say lies.
You can’t say that Chanel has won because of the Spanish votes, because if the Spanish vote was so powerful they would win every year the #ESC250 and they have been trying for years with Pastora Soler (2012) and Beth (2003). So no! Accept the truth, Europe decided that the new N.1 is Chanel. Of course Loreen is going to be back. But Chanel made her impact in Eurovision u can deny that, and that´s why she won.
Lol, coming from people saying everywhere that Ukraine has won only thanks from sympathy votes since 7 months and that they don’t deserved their victory, it’s hilarious. The karma always does the job and now you get back what you give. Firstly accept Ukraine victory and stop crying and screaming that Chanel is the real esc winner, it’s so misplaced and disrespecful so don’t be surprised now.
the way y’all are so mad about Spain finally achieving something in ESC speaks volumes about y’all. Chanel’s performance was amazing and that 1st place is deserved. Let us be happy about it at least, stop being so toxic.
nobody can be as toxic as the spanish fandom. You voted chanel and even had dime 8th (!) so enjoy it, you voted yourselves and you won!
That moment when all songs in the top 5 are overrated and dull
You are taking this survey far too seriously. And the people who say that Chanel fans are toxic but who give an opinion and think that everyone should have the same opinion, you are just as toxic as them.
Spanish fans are at it again.
A breath of fresh air, nice
SloMo feels so old. It could bee in EDC 1993
What is EDC?
Eurovision Dance Contest
Well, spanish eurofans are very active)
There are quite a few songs that have been in positions from 1k and beyond, and if that isn’t an indicator this wasn’t rigged then what is? Also only one (1) spanish song went down on the 2022 chart, while others got higher and higher.
Be a fan if you must, but this type of action will be the end of this 250 chart eventually.
241. (1090) Tamara Feat. Vrcak & Adrian – “Let Me Love You (North Macedonia, 2009)
This entry is from 2008, not 2009.
I Feed You My Love should be higher. One of the best ESC songs ever.
She wouln’t be in my 250, but it doesn’t upset me. She didn’t even write the song, so it’s nothing personal. I wish Chanel well.
It’s kinda fake, I agree, but to me it’s not much worse than the American accents or whatever else so many singers imitate.
I like it, but Johnny Logan did those lyrics 35 years ago.
It’s the very same story as the 1987 winner, though. I do like it, but more because of how Cornelia “acts” it.
14 years between Nocturne and Fairytale, now another 14 years have passed… another win?
Finland and Norway Both when your vision 17 and 14 years ago respectively, so the time would be about right for them to win again if they have the best songs. Let’s see what their national finals will bring us.
SloMo is one of the best performances at Eurovision, ever. It may not be an amazing song, but Eurovision is much more than just a song, the visuals matter just as much as the audio aspect.
Euphoria was bound to drop from the #1 spot anytime soon, so I’m glad SloMo was the song to replace it. Now I’m just excited to see if a 2023 song will replace SloMo!
It wasn’t that good, nowhere near.
… to you.
The haters are always louder than the supporters, for some strange reason.
My assumption has been confirmed. “SloMo” tops the top!! I don’t like the song but I liked the show minus the pre-recorded vocals. Also, I am happy to see a new number 1! Hold tight, hold tight … “Hold Me Closer” is to me Eurovision *perfection*. I’m absolutely stoked about it landing in the third position. Wonderful storytelling reflecting true life. My personal favourite for the first spot was Sam Ryder’s “Space Man”. <3 Classic piece of music and lyrics that feels organic, honest and free-flowing. Confession: I’ve listened to “Euphoria” maybe once from start to finish ever since it… Read more »
Well done to the Spanish Eurofans voting in full force! Every action has an opposite reaction so I’m sure we’ll see Loreen rightfully return to the top spot next year. She still got 10 years at the top so we know Euphoria is the greatest Eurovision song of all time anyway.
Honey, you can’t say that Chanel has won because of the Spanish votes, because if the Spanish vote was so powerful they would win every year the #ESC250 and they have been trying for years with Pastora Soler (2012) and Beth (2003). So no! Accept the truth, Europe decided that the new N.1 is Chanel. Of course Loreen is going to be back. But Chanel made her impact in Eurovision u can deny that.
The Spanish really went all out this year to vote for themselves. We all know SloMo is good purely because of the performance, the song is just generic. I love Chanel but her fans are so toxic. Yall really ruining eurovision for everyone
Wow, I’m spanish and I didn’t expect that, considering Loreen had been winning this poll for 10 years straight!
As much as I love “Euphoria” and “Slo mo” (both in my top 3 from their respective years), neither of them is in my top 10 of favourites songs ever.
Also, looking at the top 250, it’s a bit disappointing to see that songs before the year 2000 don’t get much recognition. There are a lot of overlooked gems.
Seeing Hold Me Closer in third made me throw up in my mouth a bit
You should’ve voted.
LOL, hope it was bitter and hurt your insides then when you vomited!
I hope for our sake next year Cornelia wins. Or Loreen. Or really anything from Sweden. At least it would be the highlight of the year, knowing you possibly and preferably slowly throws up your food knowing a Swedish song won! Nothing would be sweeter than that, a nice “revenge”
Hope you have pea soup, it always comes out in cascades when vomited
Interesting attempt at an insult, albeit a failed one. If Sweden wins then that’s fine, but for that to happen they need to send something that’s actually worthy of it, instead of being 85% jury bait and 15% bad cliché lyrics. All of Sweden’s winning entries in Eurovision are fantastic in their own way (except maybe Herreys, that one is quite mid-field) so we KNOW Sweden can do amazing things, they just don’t seem to want to do that anymore. It seems instead Sweden has no interest in catching up to Ireland’s win count, since they’ve sent nothing worth noting… Read more »
Of course it won the semifinal because 2022’s quality was the lowest of any Eurovision event since 2011. Particularly the 2nd semifinal had very little to offer that would actually end up doing well in the final. Sweden and Serbia were the only 2 countries from SF2 who went on to finish in the top 5, let alone top 10. Let’s also not forget that semifinal two also had Azerbaijan, N. Macedonia, Montenegro, Georgia, San Marino, Israel and Malta, all of those were quite heavily disliked by the fandom throughout the entire season and were never gonna do well. Poland… Read more »
Ummmmm, no, I disagree. But that is voting on WiWiBlogs for ya.
You do realise ESC250 has nothing to do with wiwibloggs?
I am so happy Euphoria is not 1st, this is one of the most overrated songs ever… Thank you Chanel!
Get real! SloMo is a below generic song which achieved a success due to Chanel’s performance only, nothing else. Musically vise, SloMo is no where near Euphoria
Imagine calling Euphoria overrated but thinking SloMo isn’t…wake up lmfao
She would be even higher, the UK are the ones that benefited the most from the fake points of the 6 juries.
Chanel No 1??? Seriously???? Okay Spanish armada you can vote me down now …But the laughter is for me!
Fully agree
Im so tired of this. Girrl if the spaniah is that powerful, Spain would won the ESC 250 every year and also the televote in JESC. Stop being a bad loser
Your remark of being a bad loser makes no sense at all! I can give you,EASILY, 50 other eurovision who way better..
It’s no secret that I never liked Fuego either…but even that song is just way better than SloMo…
Eurovision songs I mean…
ehhh Vocally, and coreography Slomo is 1000 times better than SloMo. Please be objective, Thank u very much. Slomo is more harder to dance and to sing than Fuego.
The funniest part is that if SloMo were performed by a straight white guy, it would’ve finished dead last with 0 points
Deserved. I’m not a spanish fanatic but Chanel’s performance was really one of the best, if not the best I’ve ever seen in ESC. Well done Chanel!
I wish the current year’s songs weren’t eligible to be part of ESC250. It would reduce the recency bias that happens every year.
Riiiiiiiiiiiiiight, because otherwise we would all pick, what?, Waterloo?
It’s crazy to me how Spanish fans hated on Chanel when she won Benidorm fest, but when she reached the top at the Eurovision, they suddenly had a change of heart and she became a hero.
If she came 19th she would be still bullied today
The Terra/Ay Mamá could’ve won crowd would be out in force.
I’m spanish and I loved her from the beginning, and received hate from some people because of that. I also voted for her in BenidormFest.
Stop generalizing. There can be millions of Spanish Eurovision fans. And it’s tiring to see people talking about “The Spanish eurofans” and saying mean things about all of us for what a bunch of noisy ones decide to do (the may seem a lot, but in proportion to the entirety, they’re not).
Obviously, I mean the ones who bullied her and not every single Spanish fan. Like…
I think y’all should understand that it wasn’t Eurovision fans who bullied her. It was casual viewers, middle-age people who tuned in to the Benidorm Fest, couldn’t care less about Eurovision but loves being messy and accusing others of cheating. Also people from Galicia, who wanted Tanxugueiras to win for political reasons and got extremely angry when they didn’t. Most Eurovision fans supported her when she won.
At some point Euphoria was bound to be overtaken but by this song? Really?
A song that could not survive outside Euroclubs is the best of all times? Oh well, let us see if people will remember it for the next ten years..
Chanel did the best diva pop performance in Eurovision. Helena Paparizzou was a icon for that, Eleni Foureira become an icon for that, and now Chanel. She will be remembered until another pop diva can reach her level. And we all know that is not going to happen very soon.
Relax drama queen
250 isn’t nearly enough to display all the great ESC songs throughout 67 years, but it’s a start. So many outstanding tracks in this group, and congrats to them all. Congrats to Chanel for the first place! I have other songs that would be higher in my personal 250, but Chanel would be there somewhere, thus I stan her win.
Not a fan of Euphoria but being replaced with an average commercial song sung with an average tremolo voice is quite an unworthy disgrace.
Or simply that it’s all subjective.
You’ve just summed up perfectly what I think on this. Like, I would always talk about how overrated Euphoria is, little did I know of what comes as the new hero…
And I thought it’s an unpopular opinion, but you’ve got 10 upvotes…
Diodato by far. Mahmood was horrible in the GF. I don’t get why they arrived 6th overall.
This voting is an unofficial battle of the fandoms and the most toxic one won this year. Hopefully next year they won’t bully their artist just because they wanted another song.
Happy to see that something different came to nr.1. SloMo does reflect contemporary music and sung in a non-English language, which is a big plus. It also reflects a generational change of the Eurovision fans. It was time that Euphoria quit being nr 1, as it is not ageing well, imho. On a negative side, I see that there is no historical perspective at all in this list, which makes me sad because Eurovision is not only about the songs of the past year (we see a lot of them in the list) but also its legacy. I invite all… Read more »
Euphoria not aged well? Then how come it is still being played?
Played where? In ESC Radio, Euoclubs or Swedish radio?… And stop being so nationalistic, it’s really unbecoming and doesn’t make your country any favors…
Up until this year, I would always vote for my actual top 10 all-time favourite Eurovision songs, but this year I finally – well, partly – figured out how this poll works – meaning that for many songs the only chance to make this list at all is only the same year they took part – and decided to use that. So I’ve included 4 songs from 2022 to my list, even tho only 1 of them has actually managed to get to my real top 10. 3 of them have made the list.
Chanel, the real winner of the ESC 2022. Kalush Orchestra being placed 39th on that poll says a lot on their victory in May… They earned votes because of that sad war. But now that everything is not centered around Ukraine, look where they are now. Don’t get me wrong.
The real winner is whoever wins the majority of combined points from jurors and viewers every year.
Chanel being a “real winner” to you and others only mean that she’s your personal winner and you can take comfort with that.
Congratulations Chanel
Stop with this sympathy votes thing if it was the case Ukraine would have won the jesc too, they have won Eurovision because the general public wanted them to win, it’s really time to admit it.
NO. People vote for symphaty one time, they vote for that and realese what stupid was because Ukraine still in war they can´t afford the festival, and the joke ends. Why is so difficult to admit that they won because of the war?. U know the day Ukraine up to N.1 in odds?. Yeah…that day, the day that Russia start the war. So accept the truth.
Maybe because this thing is a pure eurofan thing and only an eurofan thing , it’s a niche, this fandom is totally apart and often out of the reality. Kalush Orchestra have not won thanks to the eurofans but thanks to the general public like the last jesc winner althought. But you also can’t deny that some specific eurofans have not voted for them intentionally and we all know why. Anyway they are still the esc 2022 winners and will be forever, Stefania is still a very good song. It’s still more prestigious to win Eurovision rather than to be… Read more »
Kalush Orchestra won thanks to the general public and their sympathy votes. Not because the general public like´s the song* What is prestigious is the people remember ur song and performance. Im sorry but nobody is going t remember Kalush Orchestra, like Azerbaijan 2011.
Well it’s subjective, I don’t feel it’s the best perf ever neither the best song, maybe because I’m not a spaniard but you can’t deny that the exacerbated patriotism due to a misplaced frustration has won this esc250 year and nothing else. The spanish eurofans wanted this and they got it mainly thanks to themselves, I don’t get where they find a satisfaction in acting like that and where you can find some proudness in that.
It was a bout time to stop the Euphoria hegemony! And it was for another quite similar song, a lot of dancing and well performed song! Brava Chanel!
Spanish Eurofans are so annoying…
It was probably inevitable that Euphoria would be dethroned from the top spot at some point but nonetheless it is a shame.
It is not possible to be so high only with Spanish votes
if this was because of spanish fans. SPAIN WOULD WIN EVERY YEAR!
SloMo is an average song, visually and vocally choreographed and performed within an inch of its life, Chanel deserves this victory and it’s all perfectly timed to throw the gauntlet down to Loreen. Even better is the notion that Loreen gets to answer directly with ‘Tattoo’ this year. I have a feeling we’re in for a real treat this year! Happy new year Eurovision freaks, Enjoy every minute…..
Expected? Yes. Will it cause a big upset.. unfortunately. Next year Euphoria will probably take the crown again.
Maybe slomo is not the best eurovision song ever but for sure the best perfomsnce thats why is the number one in this ranking! Is the whole package
