Biggest fall: Once again to my surprise, not Sweden. Ireland (-9) takes that somewhat dubious honor thanks to a revamp that I abhor oh so much.

So, I will post my Top 40 now and I will give some explanations why I (don't) like the entry. I will start with #40 and count backwards, because I can't begin with the positive sides and then comment this lot of bullshit at the end :lol: Let's start...

40 - :lt: - This is my last place this year, because to me it is not a song, it's just some noise. Can't stand these loops in the refrain (lo-oho-ve, lo-oho-oho-ve xfacepalm) and everything in this entry is just a mess, so I hope this will stuck in the semis somehow
39 - :sm: - I thought the last three Siegel's were bad, but they were somehow new & fresh, while this is stucked and old fashioned like 'If We All Give A Little'. Everything is way too sugary in this entry, especially the kids. I hope for the next year, if they'll continue participating
38 - :gr: - This is soo annoying Greece. It's not touching, I'm just seeing a woman almost crying. If the song has some less lyrics it's totally a copycat of 'Suus'. Get up girl! I hope not many people want to see this
37 - :mt: - This is absolutely Eurovision and so it's not mine. A ballad, maybe powerful, and a screaming girl in front. I don't get why we need this in music. Is it touching or something like that? In addition her voice is not that powerful and doesn't fit to the song, imo.
36 - :ch: - Can't stand this overacting girl. I mean, she don't have to try to pull out her lungs. Some will think that she have an amazing voice, because of that, but she's only hiding that she's not a real good singer. And the song has nothing special, so this place is the outcome.
35 - :ru: - I hate that I have to put her so high, but at least this song stucks in my head for a while, and there are some more songs I had to put higher xfaint You will see that Hungary is far above Russia and that I will like it also, because of it's message, so you may ask why I hate this song, then? It's just to cheesy, and this can happen very often with peace songs. I'm only rolling with my eyes, when it comes to the refrain
34 - :il: - So now another horrible entry. This guy is pretending to be a player, and there's nothing I hate less than this in male's music, so the next place is obviously
33 - :md: - But with the advantage above the israeli guy, that he's already 18+
32 - :rs: - English language, turning into disco beats. There are some things wrong in this entry and so I have to put this at the bottom of my ranking
31 - :fr: - Boring song, boring voice and nothing happens in it. French music can be so nice, but the Eurovision chansons, they send are most times really awful.
30 - :uk: - The only positive thing is the jazz sound in this song, but on the other hand we have a naughty girl and a cool guy, playing their game, a repetitive melody and some weird instrumental parts. Also the violin is annoying after a minute, that's how long I can listen to this entry
29 - :ro: - I like the background story of the band, but in this song it is also very cheesy and way too boring
28 - :lv: - Some call it special, to me it's just weird. Maybe I can accept it, when I'm in the club, but I don't like club music, when I'm outside, unless it's mainstream pop like Avicii, but that's off-topic :lol:. But I think it's the first entry of Latvia for years, we can take seriously
27 - :de: - So it's time for our entry, and to me it's nothing special. The girl is a decent performer, but that's it. The song just happens and I'm neither happy nor angry when it's over.
26 - :pl: - The piano in the intro is promising more, but the whole songs turns into an usual pop ballad. The refrain is that dry, I can't feel anything.
25 - :sl: - That voice. Noisy and nerve-racking. She sounds a bit like a frog. Also the melody is not very special and the violin doesn't help. I can't see this doing very high tbh.
24 - :es: - And Spain uses it's Top 10 formula again. A female solist, shouting in the refrain. So fresh and new...yeah...really :S...
23 - :se: - The chorus is crashing everything. The verses are quite decent and listenable, but then...meh...Quite boring and forseeable. Why I thought once that Sweden has a better music scene than the UK and Iceland? At Eurovision they poorly showed...
22 - :it: - Okay guys, you have some strong voices, but seriously? This? You can show them more, than only in shouting. It's doing nothing with me, so this is it's deserved place
21 - :by: - The compulsory violin in Eurovision. Somehow this entry is interesting, but not really good, so I need something to do when they're staging or some friends I could make fun about this. 2nd option sounds better. That and some alcohol.
20 - :ge: - I don't understand this song and I'm a bit in fear that her performance will consist only of shouting and screaming and we definitely don't need another Rona Nishliu at the competition. The only thing why it is ranked so high: It's neither good, nor bad. It's just there.
19 - :am: - I don't think such groups are good for Eurovision song, but they're at least better than the swiss Siegel group. They are a few nice parts in this song, and they all have very good voices. But their intentions doesn't come over.
18 - :pt: - The verses are very promising, but the chorus is sooo boring. In my opinion, we still need her in the final, because the others are even worse, but I won't be sad when she fails, and she will...
17 - :al: - I love the guitar parts of this song and her voice is sometimes really beautiful in this song. But the song itself is really not my cup of tea and way too ballad-like.
16 - :me: - A lovely beginning in typical way of Zeljko and it reminds me a bit of 'Zabluda', but then they decided to put in some stampy beat and that destroys so much. When I heard that Zeljko will write the entry I had high hopes, but this is not what I expected ( I want 'Lejla' and 'Lane Moje' back)
15 - :at: - An okayish song, but that's it.
14 - :nl: - Also a very mediocre entry. In this year's competition she deserves the final, but it's nothing I would cheer for.
13 - :au: - So this is the best of the 'Bad 7', like I want to call them. At least you can see that we have a professional here. He knows what to do and what many people wants to hear. I sometimes catch myself singing the refrain, but it's not really my style.
12 - :is: - The girl is soo cute and I enjoy her voice, but the song is nothing new and the melody is only repeating.
11 - :cy: - To start with the negative, the lyrics are also way too cheesy. But the melody is decent, his voice is okay and the whole a song a pleasant change between all these loud & noisy ballads and up-tempo-songs. But unfortunately we have three songs of this pleasant stlye in the competition this year and this is the worst one, so I wouldn't really mind it failing to qualify.
10 - :dk: - I hope he's working on his vocals, but they were so annoying at Dansk MGP. The melody is quite joyful and really contagious. We need them in the final. We really need them.
09 - :ie: - The 2nd pleasant song. And her voice is truly amazing. I cannot believe, she's only 16 :eek: These 'I made' tones are a bit messy to me, but that's it. A decent song, that deserves the final and a starting position far away from Hungary
08 - :mk: - Nice song, but the beat is wrong here imo. It still works, but I think there could've been better solutions. The language makes it less interesting, but still good enough for Top 10
07 - :az: - Yeah...I regret now that I voted for him in 2008 and this kind of ballad is also way too much. But somehow, it's really nice and I cannot resist enjoying this power.
06 - :fi: - Could've been way better, since the riffs are quite cheap, but what to expect from those guys. It's difficult to have them in the competition, because it's obvious that the song is not that strong, but we cannot expect more from such people, so it should be seen as a masterpiece xshrug
05 - :cz: - I love the ancient instruments. In my oppinion they could use them more. The song is decent, but especially his voice is amazing. Hope is all we need with this entry.
04 - :hu: - Finally an entry I like at all. It's the third of the pleasant songs and that's why she need to perform far from Molly, when the both get into the final. But Boggie must. It's a strong and still topical message and she's not doing it in the cheesy way. She will just sing her song, having her backings and the guitar. She doesn't need more and that's truly amazing
03 - :no: - What a beautiful ballad. Their voices are fitting so good and the song has everything. The change from the dark verses to this positive chorus makes this ballad the best and very special. I'll set my winning hopes into them, but think I won't like the winner this year, as well...
02 - :ee: - What a great tune. I love the western sound in it and his voice has a high recognition factor, but not as high as my number one, which is...
01 - :be: - Absolutely amazing this guy. The focus lays on his voice, and that's the right way. I would be upset if he won't reach the Top 10.

That is my Top 40. You may have seen I used the words cheesy and boring very often, but they describe this year's Eurovision the most :lol:

Just a basic one.. :D And I recycled a lot of the comments on it from my previous post since I was frustrated about how much time I actually wasted on it. But I've changed the order of the top a bit. I just thought it's time for me to finally make a Top 40 video, since I haven't ever done one before.. and since I am an Eurovision fan now and everyone's doing it. :p
