After the unpresidented pitch of the Netherlands, some other European countries’ TV have begun making their own pitches, in language adapted to the meanest understanding. [http://www.everysecondcounts.eu/](http://www.everysecondcounts.eu/) Come to think of it, the flag of the Vatican will probably not be linked to a video. They have no late night show. Sad! ---

Portugal’s was not great. But I liked Lithuania’s request to be third. ---

Now updated with new clips from Morocco (!), Luxembourg, Moldova, Slovenia, Bulgaria and Italy. For some reasons the entries of [France](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ltl50bYNZ-I), [Kazakhstan](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xeQeqG-D3BM) and [Mars](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FBtzAYgNFk4) are not linked (I did not know Mars even _had_ a late night show) ---
