That's it for 2010 - one of my favourite ever years of Eurovision.
It was fun, but what was bubbling up under the surface?

Never mind the girl-bops, here's the piano ballads!
In 2010, juries were back big time. Even the semi-finals now required their input, but would that result in a torch song overdose?

That's the end of the bonus content for 2010, time for the coda. That means the interesting entries for the year.
And this year it includes the worst national final song of all time.

Safura's national final win in 2010 came with government approval.
It also brought Azerbaijan and a group of Swedish song-writers together in a lasting relationship.

Anna Bergendahl has a weight to bear. Her burden is being Sweden's only Eurovision non-qualifier to date.
It doesn't appear to have held her back.

MaNga weren't that close to winning Eurovision, even if YouTube commenters wish they had.
However, they're number one here if not in real life.

Alyosha wasn't originally invited. Sweet People wasn't heard at either of Ukraine's national finals in 2010.
Yet it was the song representing Ukraine at Eurovision - and it's political.

Neither I suspect has Milan Stanković.

Eurovision qualifying injustices don't come quite as big as what happened to Kristina Pelakova and Horehronie in 2010.
It may have soured an entire country on Eurovision entirely.

Juliana Pasha's song had been in Albanian, but had been translated to English for Eurovision.
And for some reason, in 2010, that didn't suck.

Opa! Opa Opa! Giorgos Alkaios had been a one-man musical force in the Greek music industry for twenty years.
With the gentle persuasion of his friends, he was taking his popular, fun sound to cheery up a Europe under financial strain.

Epic Sax Guy.

Pasha Parfeni.
The story of the Sunstroke Project is even weirder than you think.

Not a man, not a band, but two bands in a velvet jacket pretending to be a man.
Malcolm Lincoln surprisingly won Eesti Laul then took their surreal art-babble-rock to Oslo. It's enough to make your head spin.

More from Estonia. Eesti Laul had two members of Vanilla Ninja going against each other.
The first was Piret Järvis in Disko 4000 and it was all highly last minute.

Jessy Matador may not have done much singing, but he did get Eurovision 2010 up and dancing.
Even before the interval act.

The first case of an Internet viral sensation to make it to Eurovision?
Peter Nalitch started with just a Gitar on YouTube, but in 2010 he made it all the way to the big stage.

The double-ended perspex piano, the snug leather catsuit, the smouldering gaze.
Paula Seling and Ovi had chemistry and fiery desire that took them higher.

Vukašin Brajić had spent 2009 healing the wounds caused by the break-up of former Yugoslavia along with his fellow Operacija Trijumf contestants.
In 2010 he continued the mission for Bosnia at Eurovision.

It's not every Eurovision song that starts of with 30 seconds of beat-boxing and a kazoo ensemble, but InCulto are just different.
They have a surprisingly political message hiding behind the sparkling short shorts.

Miro's natural home appears to be a 1990s club dancing to euphoric indie house music, but hold on.
I think he might have glitter in his eye by the way he's starting.

Lena's Satellite won Eurovision 2010. It wasn't a landslide, but it wasn't close.
Afterwards it went on to be a Europe wide hit - but it's one of the weirdest Eurovision winners there's been.

Poland's 2010 Eurovision entry has some of the most controversial choreography in Eurovision ever.
But underneath, it's still a good song from Marcin Mroziński *and* Weroniką Bochat.

Eurovision 2010 was one of the only times TV viewers got to see that next act setting up on stage in the dark.
Well, it's cheaper than an actual postcard.

It was brave to cut the intro acts for the Eurovision 2010 semis, but having a grand final interval acts based on flashmobs might be called foolhardy.
But it was friendly to the budget.

The stage for Eurovision 2010 was certainly small and stark in comparison to 2009. No LEDs. Dark. Tiny.
What to do instead?
Vibes. And the audience.

Fewer countries at Eurovision, fewer national finals, far fewer songs to consider.
The 2010 Eurovision qualification season had been on a diet.

It's 2010. It's Oslo. The money's running out.
NRK sold off their rights to the 2010 World Cup so that Eurovision 2010 could happen, but they do have a brand new, massive venue to hold it in.
