i think there is always delusion. When you're hearing the same song 2000times+ you're kind of forced to "like the song" or get used to it and not seeing what is wrong in it anymore. And of course, big favourites are always the ones that suffer the most. So I guess the answer is in between. I think you have to keep in mind it's anyone's game till the very last second and be open to improve every time, even if we're telling you, you're the best and on the other hand it's kind of awkward that only one website gave a bad review when people are mostly positive about it elsewhere (sounded like a hater thing you know)
THIS phenomenon did totally occur with "Requiem", as its odds keep growing, though this was one of the best rehearsals, which we have seen. Moreover, we can indeed compare this with "City Lights', due to the fact that Blanche has been roughly criticized by all of the newspapers/websites, which are related to this contest. I don't understand why tbh, what they precisely expected regarding or with its rehearsals.
It's pretty difficult and complex at the same time to figure it out, as the odds of both of those countries are still increasing, while "Lights and Shadows" along with "Never Give Up On You" are constantly becoming much more popular than ever before. Once again, I can't get it, as Alma and Blanche do deserve much more than sinking in the overall scoreboard on "oddsbetting".
WELL WELL WELL.
