One of my dark horses made the left side of the scoreboard, one bombed, the other two didn't even get past the semifinal. Guess I'm not good with flops because they all made the top 11

The correct answer for dark horses was The Netherlands and Austria :D

Well, Austria was not really a dark horse. They did have big chances of winning.

Still the bookmakers didn't have them up there on the odds, nor did the fans in most of the rankings and polls.

Flops

Azerbaijan - too dull and way too serious. Don't think the audience will fall in love with this. Perhaps around 10th place?

Armenia - I don't think it will fail massively, but I don't think the first 1,5 minutes of the song will be too appealing. Top 5.

I also think that Sweden (sadly), Hungary or UK (one of them) will flop completely and end up 20th-26th.


Dark horses

Iceland - maybe I'm biased :D but outside the Eurovision world I think the audience will really like this. It's fun, catchy and memorable. Top 15.

The Netherlands - a calm, radio friendly song. Top 15.

Montenegro - a Balkan ballad is always appealing. Top 15.

:az: failed completely. :am: came top 5. :uk: flopped (although not 20-26).
:is: qualified and managed top 15. :nl: came 2nd.
:me: came 19th - but oh well, you can't always be 100% correct :D
