Your Hopes for 2022, Impossible, Possible or Ridiculous...

I think it's about time we had a new eastern European winner. Not sure how realistic this wish is since the juries were introduced but I want to see a long-term eastern european participant win.

 

[A-lister]

Kazakhstan to finally be allowed to join!!!

 

[Sammy]

Possible: The number of competing contries rises again
Impossible: Tactical and Blockvoting vanishes
Ridiculous: : Portugal sends a song that is not depressing

 

[rasmuslights]

Impossible: Moldova not sending a Kirkorov song.
Possible: The best year ever filled with winner potential and quality songs. Seriously I have a strong feeling next year is gonna be super strong!

The winner will probably be a female next year since we have had 2 "male wins" if you look at lead vocalists.
If 2021 was the year of female uptempo, 2022 will probably have more rock. Maybe 4-5 songs instead of just 2 like it was this year.

Personally I am hoping for Ukraine to send something similar to this year that could appeal to the juries just a slight bit more (maybe someone like ONUKA? Would LOVE to see her in Eurovision) which could bring home another well deserved win for them.

Another country on the winner short-list for me is Bulgaria, I'm just hoping they don't fall in the song-writing camp swamp too much and end up like us here in Sweden. If they do so, their first win is probably still a couple of years away, the winners of the last years really prove how important it is to have a package with authenticity and soul to win.

I am also excited to see what comes out of Melfest 2022 and onward now that Björkman is not in charge anymore. It's probably not good to set expectations too high, but I'm hoping for some new songwriters and artists to enter, feels like that 7th win is only slipping further away with the current format...

ONUKA was probably my favourite interval act EVER and I felt that Shum kinda served the same vibes. Have ONUKA ever discussed competing?

 

[Lance Esgard]

Possible: Musical diversity at Eurovision continues to be rewarded in the voting.
Ridiculous: Una Voce per San Marino works out a lot better than 1in360 did.
Impossible: Mans Zelmerlöw is nowhere to be seen next Eurovision.

I'm not sure but I've read somewhere that they are not interested..

io think the same, and many nations are ready to made national final, this mean many more songs to chosen.
And many suprising come on back

If we can't have AmaRello co-hosting, can we have Ema Stokholma co-hosting or as green room host?

 

[mauve]

Possible: ESC with a wider audience.
Impossible: Sweden sending a rock song.
Ridiculous: : Germany and UK getting into top 10.

 

[Mainshow]

Possible: Seeing Diodato and Marco Mengoni as interval acts
Ridiculous: Sweden submitting a genuinely interesting and progressive entry

[Shadowfuxcs]

Impossible: EBU finally holds an investigation so we get a Kirkorov-free season
Ridiculous: Andorra returns and wins the whole thing

 

[iwanna belovewithyou]

a very strange thing, there are still no dates for the days in which the Eurovision 2022 will take place, the last few years were announced during the Eurovision days, this seems very strange.

Cinecittà studios are perfect http://cinecittastudios.it/it/studi/

I'd love to see Ireland send a rock song or something electronic but I can't see it.

Probably something a bit more plausible would be sending something more Celtic/Traditional. I'd be down for that.

I did like Maps this year, but it's not like it pushed the boat out for Ireland. I feel like we've become a very "samey" sort of country at Eurovision.
