Normally I feel bad for last place, but this one was well deserved!
In 17th place and scoring 1 point:
Elena Tsagrinou - El Diablo
Have I listened to the artist before? Yes
Have I listened to the song before? Unfortunately, yes

Oh man....*shakes head sadly*. I’m a huge Eurovision fan, and not in an ironic £watch it just for the craic" kind of way. I genuinely love a lot of Eurovision songs and enjoy discovering new artists and hearing music in other languages. However, I must admit that the ratio of quality to trash is not always optimal. Case in point; this piece of trash here. The tune is a (poor) rip-off of Lady Gaga’s Bad Romance. The lyrics are cringey to the point of almost offensive, with random Spanish words thrown in to try and sound "cool". And what’s most infuriating of all; our submitter could have picked another Fire-related song that was a Eurovision entry from Cyprus and scored much better (granted, that’s not a lyrical masterpiece either but at least the song was catchy and the performance was very strong).
This was a very easy last place, I’m afraid. Sorry. (Not sorry).
