finally caught up with the last few songs
sweden: the one song to beat. it will def stand out and could easily win.
norway: beautiful ballad. some of the duets must flop though (probably san marino and czech republic)
azerbaijan: yes another ballad but very well sang and quite modern. love it! top10
australia: not keen on first listen, much better on second. don't think they can win (i mean honestly heroes visuals alone will beat this out) but top10 very possible
montenegro: i'm a sucker for balkan ballads and i love it but it will probably do like montenegro last year, qualify and then get forgotten.
albania: this grows on me with every listen tbh. like it a lot
russia: well well well.........like it alot but it's russia so yeah.
san marino: it's ok-ish at first but the chorus and especially the last minute kills the song, way way too cheesy. omg.

btw the cd will get released already on 17th of April which is 5 weeks ahead. I think it was usually 3 weeks.
