I think will taking this home. With so many competitive bops in this edition, Russia is standing out the most. The entry has the best use of the ethnic elements in the composition which make the song its own thing, and also being cohesive enough structure-wise to make this accessible for everyone.

The other bop also has a shot for a top placement even they might cancel out each other.
The other candidates are:
and Turkmenistan.

Oddities like , and Macau should be mentioned too for being songs that don't really follow a formula while having their own appeal which might gather points for that reason.

I might sound like the biggest narcissist here, but...

has a very real chance for a third victory. The entry is among the most competitive this edition, it covers Pot A and all the way to Pot D. "Labyrinth" is super accessible without being too standard, the song has that kind of balance. It also helps that the MV is gorgeous (being the sexy runner-up in NSC 180). The Japanese entry does have its competitors though.

is also a very strong contender for the gold medal, it's a damn spicy and well-structured turbo-folk with all the Pot F goodness. I can see this getting high points from many here. I think it's safe to say that Kazakhstan is guaranteed in the top 3.

Of all the sexy bops, I think has the best chance. I would also add , and there. The Pot D gems Azerbaijan and Sudan might get a surprise top 3, maybe even Ghana too for the ironic votes.
