Lithuania
Back in 1994, Lithuania joined the Eurovision family, but their first representation by Ovidijus Vyšniauskas placed the country last with zero points. After that, it took another five years before the country returned to the 1999 contest. Aistė did do a little bit better with her song in the Samogitian dialect, but the country did once again pull out. The same thing happened in 2003, but since then, Lithuania has been a steady participant.
In 2006, LT United scored a 6th place with We Are The Winners. To date, that entry is Lithuania's best Eurovision result.
Over the years, the country has shown that they aren't afraid to try different styles, and that has given mixed results. Since the introduction of semi-finals in 2004, Lithuania has failed to reach the final on six occasions.
