I'm surprised Serbia are so high in this. The odds really do think 6/7 coming from the first half are qualifying, and Bambie Thug has now moved up to 11th. Has there ever been a case of the first half providing more qualifiers than the second half before?

I keep going over all of the contenders in my brain and I can't move away from my initial reaction to Switzerland just being that it's SUCH a stand out. Even now, watching the recaps with all the entries in together, it stands out so much. It feels like a jury winner and it's "out there" enough...

I'm ALL for my pop girlies, but I honestly think Marcus & Martinus's song is the only "ooh" moment that makes you actually want to vote. Staging and song-wise, it's probably the best. Effortless is a stomper of a studio track but I kinda feel like it lacks a live ~moment, so to speak. That...

01 Italy (prediction: ~5th) 02 Spain (prediction: ~21st) 03 United Kingdom (prediction: ~13th) 04 France (prediction: ~4th) 05 Germany (prediction: ~24th) I think all bar Germany are in my top half of the entries revealed so far though. And Germany isn’t even bad, just a tad forgettable.

God, they really need to get rid of the age groups voting. All 3 of those would make welcome finalists over some of the dull ones we’ve got so far. Or maybe the people who stream don’t correlate with those who vote. Either way - frustrating that one of those 3 are gonna miss out on the final.

I'm not sure 18th-19th is the average in a competition where the UK can only come 26th at worst though. For any of the big 5, surely average is 13th?

St Pedro is definitely winning this, I feel.

Wow, you really got me on that one - I was just opening up my texts to spam excitement to my friends until I saw the date.

Danny rumoured today! Loreen handing over the mantle to Danny would truly feel like a perfect end to a tale that’s 12 years in the making. If he’s got a more competitive entry than Dandi Dansa in him, of course.

Yeah, why is the video version not on Spotify? The intro and the spoken middle 8 with a switch in production - whilst the latter is kinda cringy, it does give the song levels because one of my initial criticisms of it was that it just stays at one level from start to finish. But, having those...

I can’t think of a single Eurovision song that has ever entered Spotify’s top 200 until the week before Eurovision (aka Spaceman). So entering at #56 off less than 24 hours of streaming is actually VERY VERY good.

The filler of it all.

Why must we sacrifice one of Eva/Ewa & Clara at the hands of the DULL duel Frida vs Paul? I hate this format sometimes.

So, it turns out Greta Svensson and Hans Thorstensson are pseudonyms of Smith & Thell, which has pricked my ears up towards this Sannex track more than expected.

Agnes - One Last Time vs. Miley Cyrus - Wrecking Ball Jazmine Sullivan - Bust Your Windows vs. Alicia Keys - Fallin' Girls Aloud - Sexy! No No No vs. Gwen Stefani - What You Waiting For? Nicki Minaj - Super Bass vs. Iggy Azalea ft. Rita Ora - Black Widow Rihanna - Love On The Brain vs. Robyn -...
