Why it was so silly
1st

Sanomi

2003

Belgium

Though Belgium have 4 national languages to choose from, they invented a completely new language in which to sing this song! No-one has a clue what they were singing about, not even the singers themselves!
2nd

Stemmen I Mit Liv

1997

Denmark

This song was all about a man who fell in love with the Direct Enquiries phone girls. Read the complete lyrics here at Digiloo.net.
3rd

Dschingis Khan

1979

Germany

Singing a song about an old Mongolian warrior is strange enough, but the lyrics were even stranger. Including lines such as "Let's fetch Vodka, because we are Mongolians," and "He fathered 7 children in one night."
4th

My Galileo

2004

Belarus

I don't think that the lyricist for these songs is particularly fantastic at English, as they came up with such pearlers as: "You're my pier, centre in my life, I rotate to you."

5th
Wadde Hadde Dudde Da
2000

Germany

This song played with the German language, changing words slightly, and singing them repeatedly. Here is an example verse - "Hadder denn da wat, un wenn ja, wat hadder da, Hadder da watt glatt, oder hadder da wat haar da, Hadder da wat, wat sonst keiner hat, Oder hadder dat auf dat, dat wadder da hat, Dat wadder da da hat, dat hadder nu ma da, Dabei war ja gar nicht klar, dat dat dat da war, Wat dat war, dat war unklar, Um darum sammer domma bidde, wadde hadde dudde da?"!
6th

Diggi-loo, Diggi-ley

1984

Sweden

This song (which won in 1984!) was sung by 3 Swedes wearing golden shoes, singing things like "Diggio-loo, diggi-ley, everybody's looking at me when I'm walking in my golden shoes" and "I almost begin to fly in my golden shoes"!
7th

In The Disco

2004

Bosnia-Herzegovina

This song begins with the line "I'm lying, I'm late, I'm losing my weight", nd another pearl is "You call me, you wait, take your shoes and go straight."
8th

Putnici

1999

Bosnia-Herzegovina

For an inexplicable reason, the Bosnians decided to sing the chorus of their song in French in 1999, and the French must have thought they were so strange! The chorus translates as: "We are, you are, they are, they are, we are, you are, the travellers. We have, you have, they have, they have, we have, you have, the house, the house."

9th

Il Faut Du Temps

2002

France

This nice ballad hides some seriously weird lyrics behind the nice tune. "Peace is only a child who doesn't walk straight" and "Mr Ghandi has died" and "I'm only a little soldier, without arms" (although this means arms as in weapons, it still sounds funny at first!)
10th
Let's Get Happy
2003

Germany

Lou wins a place in our top 10 purely for the line "let's get happy and let's be gay"! Only in Eurovision!
