HIGHLIGHTS OF COUNTRIES NO LONGER PARTICIPATING – ANDORRA 2009

The next few days we look at Andorra, which took part in the Eurovision Song Contest 6 times, debuting in the 2004 contest and participating every year thereafter until the 2009 contest. The Andorran participating broadcaster in the contest is Ràdio i Televisió d’Andorra (RTVA). To date, Andorra remains the only nation to have never competed in a final. Andorra withdrew from the contest following its 2009 appearance, with RTVA citing financial difficulties as the reason for its withdrawal.

In 2009 Andorra was represented at the Eurovision Song Contest with the song La Teva Decisió (Get a Life), written by Susanne Georgi, Rune Braager, Lene Dissing, Pernille Georgi, Marcus Winther-John, and Josep Roca Vila, and performed by Susanne Georgi herself. Andorra finished in 15h place in semi-1 of the Eurovision Song Contest 2009. This was the last time Andorra took part in the competition, having withdrawn the following year. Its absence has continued in every edition since.
