As every year, the international Eurovision chart “ESC Top 250” returns! Will Loreen reclaim first place once again? Voting is now open!
What is the greatest Eurovision song of all time? Until 2021, Loreen repeatedly won first place in the annual fan vote of the ESC Top 250 chart with her song “Euphoria”. In 2022, for the first time in years, a new song topped the list, “SloMo” by Chanel. The following year, Käärijä from Finland was crowned the big winner with his massive European hit “Cha Cha Cha”. However, last year, Loreen made a triumphant return to the number-one spot.
Every year, Eurovision fans rank their favorite songs of all time toward the end of the calendar year for the ESC Top 250 — a list compiled by the Belgian Eurovision website Songfestival.be in collaboration with the online Eurovision radio station EFR12Radio. Voting for this year’s chart has officially begun — and everyone is welcome to vote!
Who Will Top This Year’s List of Fan Favorites?
The key songs likely to dominate the top spots are, of course, Loreen’s “Euphoria” and “Tattoo”, which took first and second place last year. This year, several new entries from Eurovision 2025 are expected to join the chart — mainly those that captured the audience’s attention during the competition. Particular attention is being paid to Yuval Raphael, who won first place in the audience vote and second overall with the song “New Day Will Rise”. Alongside her stands Tommy Cash from Estonia, with his song “Espresso Macchiato”, which placed second in the public vote and third overall, just one point behind Yuval. The question now is whether these two fan favorites will continue to win the audience’s hearts and climb to the top of the prestigious chart.

Voting closes on Sunday, December 7th, at 11:00 CET.
The results will be announced on December 31st on the online radio station EFR12Radio.
