The results of the Eurovision Song Contest are always waiting with trembling all over the world. It's not just a singing competition, it's also a grandiose show, as well as a symbol of the unity of all European countries. So it's no wonder that Eurovision is always watched with a sinking heart almost by every person in Europe and every country is cheering for its performer, hoping that victory will be given to him this year. But in the end, victory goes to someone alone, and the inhabitants of other countries can only be happy for the fact that another talent found its recognition. In addition, as they say, it is important not so much to win as to participate. But, nevertheless, let's get acquainted with the list of Eurovision winners by years, which have sunk into the hearts of millions of people.
List of winners of Eurovision Song Contest
Since the Eurovision Song Contest has been held since 1956, it is completely unrealistic to recall each of the participants and even remember those who won Eurovision too. Although someone probably remembers that it was thanks to the victory in this competition that the band ABBA and the singer Celine Dion became famous. But since we are now in the courtyard of the twenty-first century, let's just remember all the victories at Eurovision for the last fourteen years.
2000 - Olsen Brothers. Danish pop-rock duo, consisting of two brothers Olsen - Jurgen and Niels. Later, during the contest, dedicated to the 50th anniversary of the contest, their song, with which the duo performed in 2000, took the sixth place in the list of the best songs ever performed on the stage of Eurovision. Definitely have something to be proud of.
2001 - Tanel Padar, Dave Benton and 2XL. Estonian duo of singers with a hip-hop group on back-vocals (2XL). Tanel and Dave brought their country's first ever victory at the Eurovision Song Contest. Also, after winning the Tanel contest, Padar became one of the most famous rock singers in Estonia.

2014 - Conchita Wurst . The winner of the Eurovision this year from Austria, Conchita Wurst became a real shock for many people. Nobody expected to see a bearded singer at the contest, and no one had predicted victory for her. The real name of Conchita is Thomas Neuwirth. And, despite the public unrest, it can not be denied that the image of a woman with a beard was really unusual, and Thomas's voice is very strong and interesting.
So we figured out who won Eurovision from the beginning of the twenty-first century. Now it remains to wait for which country will win the victory in 2015.
