Eurovision stars hits on YouTube

31 March 2008 at 18:14 CEST

Each of the 43 participants is present on YouTube with their music video or national final performance, some uploaded up to 50 times. Although it is hard to determine the exact number of views with so many videos available, Eurovision.tv made a rough calculation of the total views of each 2008 Eurovision Song Contest entry. It has to be mentioned that the songs chosen earlier have an advantage over those who have been selected closer to the submission deadline (17th of March).

This is our roughly projected YouTube top-10; 

  1. Spain - Rodolfo Chikilicuatre - Baila El Chicki Chicki

    8,400,000 views
  2. Turkey - Mor ve Ötesi - Deli

    1,300,000 views
  3. Ireland - Dustin the Turkey - Irelande Douze Pointe

    1,200,000 views

  4. Greece - Kalomira - Secret Combination

    1,100,000 views
  5. Sweden - Charlotte Perrelli - Hero

    880,000 views
  6. Germany - No Angels - Disappear

    800,000 views
  7. Poland - Isis Gee - For Life

    490,000 views

  8. Russia - Dima Bilan - Believe

    400,000 views
  9. Cyprus - Evdokia Kadi - Femme Fatale

    330,000 views
  10. Serbia - Jelena Tomaševic - Oro

    220,000 views

What this means for the outcome of the contest is highly unpredicable. And don't forget... with still some eight weeks to go before the big night, anything can change!
