Spain does get a lot of votes in the official OGAE votings at the moment. I can't quite explain it, except that OGAE probably has a penchant for older ladies who got their faces fixed but not their voices.

I think juries should be there, both nationally and maybe even in the semi-finals. What I don't like at all, is international juries in national contests. That's sick.

Björk is dead last in the odds now. Even behind Czechia and San Marino. You kind of feel that if ANYONE wrote a new song for her, that would do better - she's a talented artist. definitely among the 10 best singers in the competition.

The biggest gap in the odds is currently the one between Georgia and Denmark (68 vs. 38 %). That includes both semi-finals, and all the way from first place to last place. So even though Georgia (and Estonia) are only 10th and 9th in semi-final 2, SABA doesn't really threaten them. I know - we...

The song has various elements, including rap. But it's not disjointed as so many other entries this year are. I've given it a 5 so far, but it could be more if the vocal performances were improved slightly. I've seen different excuses as to why the vocals were a bit insecure in the live show...

I was being nice and gave this one a 5. It's an understated melody which I kind of appreciate. But I don't play it.

Okay, I see sexy girls - "There are sexy girls over there!" Okay, I see sexy boys - "There are sexy boys over there!"

It could go like with fan-favourite Ryk in Germany - that people don't quite "get it" before the song is over. However, judging by the liveshow I've seen from Austria, it seemed Nemo's voice is strong - he does deliver.

What I hope will happen: - Sweden finishes bottom 5 (not gonna happen) - Ireland NQ's (probably not gonna happen) - Czechia Q's (not gonna happen) - Poland Q's (could happen) - The televote-oriented songs flop (probably not gonna happen)

The verses of this song are extremely neutral and forgettable. The chorus is pleasant, but very generic (following the 'I Will Survive' structure), except for the last part of it - it's quite obvious that the ending to the chorus was made that way to step just a little bit away from the...

Thumbs up for that sentence in itself. :LOL:

Yeah, but after several listens, I still can't remember what comes before that.

The first line sounds like a yellowhammer. :LOL: https://youtu.be/mKzp0gRcWrs?si=2JF4ooSkBZJg2nk8

The first part of the chorus reminds me of ... some song I can't exactly point out.

I thought so too. And the televoters did the same. But the traditional Eurovision lovers went for the more Melfest-like entry.
