Last year Hersi ended third in the Albanian competition with Kush Ta Dha Këtë Emër (Who gave you this name).
In December 2010 she participated with Me Cilin Rri Ti Dashuri (Stay with the one you love) and finished 11th.

Hairy Rockers Adrian Lulgjuraj and Bledar Sejko failed to reach the final in 2013, but 2012 saw the best result for Albania ever: Rona Nishliu took her stunning Suus to the 5th spot in the final.
Festivali I Këngës veteran Aurela Gaçe got stuck in the Eurovision semi in 2011 but both Juliana Pasha (16th in 2010) and Kejsi Tola (17th in 2009) made it to the final.

Giant Igor Vovkovinskiy carried Zlata Ognevich onto the Malmö stage. Her Gravity ended third.
Gaitana didn't fare as well, Be My Guest ended 15th in the final. Mika Newton ended 4th with a little help from sandlady Kseniya Simonova. Sweet People by Alyosha ended 10th in 2010.
Can't believe it's already five years ago since Anti Crisis Girl Svetlana Lobodo paraded her Hell Machine onto the Moscow stage. You'd think the crisis would be over by now.
