Lithuania has participated in the Eurovision Song Contest six times, debuting in 1994 (see ESC1994). After finishing last without a single point, Lithuania withdrew for five years, but has participated since 1999 , except in 2000 and 2003, when they did not get enough points in the preceding year. The country had for a long time never finished in the top ten, and finished last in the 2005 semi-final. In 2006, LT United delivered the country's best placing (6th) with the highly controversial song 'We Are The Winners'.
