Albania has been represented every year since its premiere entry in 2004. It is still aiming for victory. In 2012, "Suus" gave Albania its best result yet: 5th place. Last year's entry "Fairytale" failed to make the Grand Final, despite being a strong song.

Lindita will be performing Albania's song for 2017. "Botë" will be sung in both Albanian and English.

WINS: 0

FAIRYTALE Eneda Tarifa
