Portugal 🇵🇹 in Eurovision Song Contest (1964-2023)
Ойын-сауық
Here's a recap of all the songs that competed for Portugal in Eurovision Song Contest from 1964 to 2023. Please, enjoy!
Portugal has participated in the Eurovision Song Contest 54 times since its debut at the 1964 contest. Since then it has missed five contests (1970, 2000, 2002, 2013 and 2016). The contest is broadcast in Portugal by Rádio e Televisão de Portugal (RTP). Portugal won the contest for the first time in 2017 and hosted the 2018 contest in Lisbon.
Portugal finished last on its debut in 1964 and again in 1974, before achieving its best result of the 20th century in 1996, with Lúcia Moniz finishing sixth. The country then finished last for the third time in 1997. Having not appeared in the final since 2010 and as holders of the record for most appearances in the contest without a win, Portugal won at the 49th attempt, when Salvador Sobral won the 2017 contest with the song "Amar pelos dois", Portugal's first top-five result in the contest. As hosts in 2018, the country finished last in the contest for a fourth time.

If memory serve that "honor" belong to "Grândola, Vila Morena" by the great Zeca Afonso. The music was not blacklisted by the censorship of the time. The vinyl was deployed on the radio by Joaquim Furtado the radio man. Father of Catarina Furtado. Although he was not aware of the deeper meaning of it. ;-) Edit: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gr%C3%A2ndola,_Vila_Morena After reading the article, I stand corrected that was the second song. The first was exactly like the original poster mentioned. ;-)

I may be wrong, but sometimes I feel as if the public and the juries view the country basically as a participating nation, not really a competing one... Only this can explain the extremely low points Portugal receives over and over again. Even the most basic Swedish song gets 10 times more. Ingrosso's entry a few years ago comes to mind. It only finished in the top 10 because the juries showered it with points. Strange.

Portugal is, together with Czechia, one of my favourite countries in the ESC. I wish that my own country, once in a while, had the guts to be as free from the ESC trends, as Portugal so often tends to be. So even this year. My favourite Portuguese entry, though, is their masterpiece from 2017. And 1974, what a great way to start a democratic revolution after 50 years of totalitarian rule. No other ESC entry has been as important through the history as Portugal 1974. And today, almost 50 years later, Portugal is one of the most solid democracies in the World (and one of the countries with the strongest press freedom). An example to follow, for so many places of the world. Amongst other favourites of mine, I need to mention 1982, 1984, 1992, 1996, 2008 and 2022. Greetings from Sweden. 🎶👏👏👏👏👏🎶

It feels like 2017 was the year Portugal really formed into the powerhouse it’s become today. Notice how after winning they’ve only NQed once compared to before that where they struggled to qualify much at all. Honestly it’s a shame given they’ve been very true to themselves since the start, but it’s also nice to see the public start to appreciate their talent and respect the authenticity.

I think the most meaningful one has to be de 1974 song. if you didn't know between the years 1933-1974 Portugal was under a dictatorship which killed and tortured the whole country and in April 24th, at exacts 22h55 to be precise, this song came in the radio, it was a code, a code that started the downfall of the dictatorship that Portugal was on. This was the sound of freedom, hope, euphoria, the sound that led the military forces to reconquer the so long lost freedom of my country. 25 de Abril sempre!!!

It's the best country in Eurovision for me
So many underrated classics from Portugal, and they didn’t even crack the Top 5 until 2017 with their very well deserved win. My favorite years were 1966, 1971-74 (the best period for them), 1978-80, 1983, 1994, and 1996.
Actually, I should correct you. In the 2022's entry, you put the song's name translated as "yearning, yearning" but the word “saudade” doesn't have any translation to other languages, it's a unique word of ours, one that represents our culture and music.. 19:34 ❤

Tem longing, que é o sentimento de falta, de sentir algo distante. Creio que isso é justamente o que saudade significa. Então não, não é exclusiva ao Português.
Vânia Fernandes with Senhora do Mar (2008) was probably my favourite entry ever from Portugal. So underrated. Really thought back then that if that song didn't win we would never bring it home

Late 70's all the way to the beginning of the 90's was, in my opinion. A period of fantastic musical discovery and exposure in Portugal. Much fruit of the after revolution opening and consolidating of new styles and approach to the arts in general. A breath of fresh air in the music scene! Than came a "trip trough the desert" of the late 90's. Only getting back on track after wining in 2017. Artists like Adelaide Ferreira (1985), Dora 1986-1988), Maria Guinot (1984), Dulce Pontes (1991), José Cid (1980), Anabela (1983), Sara Tavares (1984), etc. Being lost in the wave of change. All absolutely fantastic voices and overall talented artists.
Of the 54 editions in which Portugal participated, only in 11 the country managed to finish in the top 10.

I'm going to talk as a Portuguese guy that loves his country: THANK GOD SALVADOR SOBRAL APPEARED! He was truly a game-changer for Portugal in Eurovision, since we've sent so much bullshit to Eurovision between the end of the 90's and mid 2010's. We got some good entries in that period (2008, 2010 and 2012 are amazing), but we got relegated in 2000 and 2002 (even tho I think that system was actually bad and unfair), and after the semi-finals were introduced in 2004 we took 4 years to get our first final, and in 2006, 2007, 2011 and 2014 we send some horrendous entries (I actually hate 2014 entry so bad). All Portuguese entries after 2016/2017 reformulation to our "Festival da Canção" contest (that's why we didn't send any song in that year) that improved the criteria for selection of the winner we always something really good (even in 2018 that we made last in the final and 2019 when we didn't qualify we had good entries), and since then, out of 7 contests (2017, 2018, 2019, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024 with Iolanda), we made it to the finals 6 times, 4 of them in a row. I'm proud RTP understood that things were not in a good way for us in the Eurovision and took action to made things better, and again, thanks Salvador, you saved Portugal
Their 2019 entry is a masterpiece, shame that it's being overlooked so much

The Black Mamba - "Love is on my side", 2021. Was absolutely awesome! Beautiful and strong music. Backed by a very powerful and meaningful lyrics! Top 5 would be its rightful place. ;-)
The 1984 entry was the best one, to a personal level. is a poetic reflection on the search for self-knowledge and meaning both in solitude and in the presence of others. The lyrics suggest that it is in silence that the lyrical self finds love and understanding, symbolized by the other’s gaze. Silence is described as a space of revelation, where feelings and thoughts crystallize into ‘stone’ or are expressed with the force of a ‘scream’. is a meditation on the human condition, loneliness, companionship, and how these elements interact to shape our understanding of ourselves and the world around us. The alternation between silence and crowd reflects the duality of the human experience, where introspection and social interaction are both crucial to personal growth and the search for meaning. a song that is in the past but it’s so relatable today.
Hello. I leave you the ones I liked about Portugal at the festival: 1969, 1972 ( This one from 1972 for me should be the winner of that year ), 1984, 1991, 1998, 2003, 2007, 2017, 2021, 2022.

In 2000 we actually selected a song (Sonhos Mágicos by Liana) and there was a chance of participation but Latvia debuted and Portugal was relegated. In 2013 it was because of financial problems and politic turmoil of that year. There was even discussions to privatize RTP. In 2016 Portugal pondered to actually leave the contest like Slovakia or Luxembourg but in the end RTP decided to just take a break to revamp the national final which gave Portugal the victory in 2017! It's kinda funny that it was always when Sweden was hosting but it was just a coincidence! There's nothing wrong between Portugal and Sweden and I'm sure we will be there in 2024. Finally! Also funny that Sweden withdraw in 1964, the year of Portugal's debut 😂

Saudade does not have translation😭😭
1991 - 1996 was really good, results wise. 😊 At least for a country that hardly ever succeeds in Eurovision.

É o orgulho de ser português 🇵🇹
You used to use RTP's national final record of Oração previous videos. Why did you use coloured version of Oração this video?
