Team rating of Spain: 54.5%

We asked the Aussievision team to rate Spain's Eurovision 2020s entries on a scale of 1 (lowest) to 10 (highest).

This gave us an average overall score from the 11 contributors who voted. We then converted that into a percentage.

Spain's score was: 54.5%

The scores ranged from a 4/10 to 7/10, with six contributors giving Spain a score of 5/10.

"Let's be honest: Spain has been criminally underrated since 2023, and it might continue. I thought Chanel's third-place finish would be the start of a resurgence, but selecting Manel Navarro over Mirela in 2017 has to be the straw that breaks the camel's back and unless there is another Chanel-style performer to turn things around, Spain, like Germany, might be in the purgatory of mediocrity." ~ John Christian

"Spain sends awesome stuff and is consistently under rewarded and under appreciated." ~ Troy

"If Spain was not in the Big 5, most of these would not have qualified for the final. There bottom 5 results is terrible. Even Germany has managed to turn this around." ~ Fleur

"A middle-aged homosexual disguised as a country." ~Craig

"I had hoped that Chanel had kick started some success for Spain at Eurovision... but no...." ~Hayley
