Marie N sang “I Wanna,” scoring 176 points and bringing Eurovision to Riga in the process. Latvia also managed to finish in the top 10 two more times, in 2005 and 2015. Latvia’s most recent entry on the Eurovision stage was Samanta TΔ«na, who performed “The Moon Is Rising.” The song failed to qualify, finishing 17th in its semi-final.
