Best result: 12th in Semi (2007)

A tiny principality tucked between France and Spain in the Pyrenees, Andorra made its first ever appearance at Eurovision in 2004. As a new entrant, Andorra had to participate in the Semi Final; unfortunately, Marta Roure feel well short, only mustering 18th place in the Semi Final for her song 'Jugarem a estimar-nos'. Indeed, had it not been for 12 points from Spain, Andorra would have had the ignominy of scoring nothing at all.

Nevertheless, Andorra came back for another go in 2005, this time aiming to secure points from the Netherlands as well by sending the Dutch-born singer, Marian van de Wal. Her song, 'La mirada interieur', was very good, and benefited from a strong performance, but it was still not enough to secure more than 27 points and 23rd place, despite predictable support from the Spanish and Dutch televoters. Normal service resumed in 2006, with Jenny's 'Sense tu' managing to pick up 8 points from Spain but nothing from anybody else. After a dismal record so far, but plenty of plucky enthusiam, Andorra will assume its customary place in the 2007 Semi Final.

In 2007 Andorra was represented by the group Anonymous, finishinging 14th in the Semi Final.


This year's entry:





My opinion & prediction:


This year Andorra will be represented by Gisela who is far the most beautiful girl in the contest. This song is my favorite, I’ll vote for it in the Semi Final, and I hope in the Final as well. Overall, I don’t see it winning.

My prediction for the Semi Final: 8th to 12th
My prediction for the Final: Possible qualifier; 10th to 12th
