National final season has come to an end and we now have the chosen ones who will move on to compete at Eurovision. However, many of the other entries that didn’t make it will remain on our playlists for some time. To celebrate these acts, it’s time for our countdown of Team Wiwi’s Top 50 national final songs of Eurovision 2025.
The team here at wiwibloggs have voted for our favourite songs that competed in the national finals for Eurovision 2025 but were not selected for Basel. Over 140 of this year’s songs received points from our jurors. Now, we’re ready to share which of them made it into our Top 50. We’ll reveal ten tracks each day until we reach the winner.
Note this is not an objective list, but is determined by the personal votes of a panel of wiwibloggers. We encourage you to share your own personal favourites in the comments.
Let the countdown continue!

Which songs do you think should feature on the list? Are you surprised by the choices so far in our Eurovision 2025 national final Top 50? Let us know in the comments.
Dolly Style was my underrated favorite this year! Just a fun song.
When will my comment appear? I posted yesterday afternoon, and it’s *still* being moderated?
Same 🙁
Tip: If you spread out the letters for Alba n i a, your comment might appear automatically
Posted another. No such word involved. Yet, ANOTHER ”waiting for approval”.
My favorites of NF season (non-winners) were Ligo – The Ludvig (Latvia), Ramtai – Citi Zeni (Latvia), Believe Me – Greczula (Sweden)
LELEK was robbed… 🙁
They released a version of their song in Croatian. Should’ve sung that one…
Yes, but they needed to make that choice beforehand. They broke the rules and should’ve been disqualified.
My rank:
21. Fredrik Lundman – “The Heart of a Swedish Cowboy” – Sweden
22. Zero Point Five – “Ride” – Luxembourg
23. Felin – “Solo Anthem” – Estonia
24. Il Solito Dandy – “Milennial” – San Marino
25. Horror Dance Squad – “The Rebel Reborn” – Estonia
26. Euften – “Goodbye Hell” – Lithuania
27. NeonoeN – “CLICKBAIT” – Montenegro
28. Marin Juric-Civro – “Gorjelo je” – Croatia
29. Hansanova – “Leilydo” – Lithuania
30. Räpina Jack & Kaisa Ling – “Tule” – Estonia
Now that we have the full list of entrants, I do wonder how far Clickbait could have gone – I reckon it would be a sure qualifier for the final and could have even cracked the left hand side of the leaderboard
I love those final four. Gorjelo je is my dad-rock pick of the year.
21. Anna Sahlene – Love me low (Estonia)
22. Dinamiss – Odyssey (Greece)
23. Maja Iversson – Kamikaze Life (Sweden)
24. Herve Toure – Allez Allez (Denmark)
25. Reylta – Fire (Ireland)
26. Ogenj – Daj Daj (Croatia)
27. Leimannoia – Virginia (San Marino)
28. Enny-Mae x Paradigm – Weightless (Germany)
29. Natasa Kojic – Up and Down (Serbia)
30. The Ludvig – Ligo (Latvia)
30. Antsud Metal Project — “Ei enam” (Estonia wildcard)
29. Freya Alley — “Lalala” (Lithuania)
28. Maršali — “Po policama se?anja” (Serbia)
27. Sarah Toscano — “Amarcord” (Italy)
26. Fenksta — “Extra” (Croatia)
25. KoBra — “Zelts” (Latvia)
24. Emmy Curl — “Rapsódia da Paz” (Portugal)
23. Barbz — “Sirens” (Greece)
22. Jon Vitezi? — “Vse ti dam” (Slovenia)
21. Bel Tempo x Legzdina — “The Water” (Latvia)
Great to see Vse ti dam in this list and Freya Alley, I thought that one might be a bit too cute for anyone else so really pleased to see it so high up in your list!
I’ve seen people say Lalala was a JESC song (derogatory) but for me it’s more like a JESC song (affectionate): just a bop for the sake of bopping, endlessly replayable.
EMA would be my pick for the most underrated NF of the year, with a lot of interesting artists doing their own thing without too much concern for competitiveness. Latvia was like that last year, and then this year they delivered (mild spoiler) one of my favorite NFs ever, so here’s hoping for more of the same.
For the Elvana stans… see now? It would have not been as successful as Zjerm.
