The main topic of the weekend was still Poland.

lithuania will flop i think. it's just nothing special. and i hate that he is str8.

frans did quite "bad" in televoting but i guess that's mostly because of the app? i now don't think he can win esc. i mean australia and belarus didn't give him one single point in the jury...

i'm happy oscar came second, my fave. surprised how bad molly did. ace wilder did not deserve such a high ranking thanks to the juries haha. the melfest medley aah

serbia: i love her voice, i'm not so sure about her song yet. i like it i just dont love it hm.

azerbaijan: this is good. her voice is weak live but they made safura work so this will work too. top10 pretty sure. could also go top5. depends how well they will do the staging.

albania: i never really liked it but it was at least dramatic. with the new arrangement they killed any kind of emotion this song ever had. this doesn't deserve to qualify.

israel: similiar to ablania they killed any soul the previous version had. this is now really really bland.

Bulgaria's song is called "If Love Was a Crime" and it'll be presented on March 21st (couldn't they wait any longer ). I think it's gonna sound good.

this is a nice info aobut how for example the cypriotic HOD works: http://escinsight.com/2016/03/13/hod...i-papamichael/

and there will be a big eurovision party next to the globen (with an afterparty!): http://www.eurovision.tv/page/news?id=202493

praying sweden draws 2nd today (watch it be 18th)

You can perform 2nd and end 6th with a good song (Bosnia 2011), and you can perform last with a trash song and end bottom 5 (Spain 2009). But yeah, I hope Sweden performs among the first 7 so that the pain is over soon.

Russia first in odds, this time for real.

Dino was bound to get a **** ton of points regardless of the song

i know that i just dont want sweden to have a chance of winning lol

They have zero chance at winning or even finishing on the left hand side of the scoreboard imo

Talent Won. San Marino >>>>> Frans

Russia is 1st? They seriously think Måns Zelmerlöw singing his demo from 2008 while having a cold can win?

those odds don't really mean anything until rehearsales start imo.

there is just no clear winner (which is exciting) so they are betting on something "safe".

it may not be my fave song but it does sound like it could win

Eh, maybe earlier this decade. It really is a bland and not as memorable imitation of last year's winner, I don't see it doing well at all. The fact that he's an Alexey Vorobëv-level live vocalist doesn't help. The juries will trash him completely, even Belarus won't give him 12 tbh.

so you think he will flop but you think people will vote for Avicii reject ?

there are too many female ballads this year......they will all cancel each other out pitty cause i like them all pretty much

I don't think he'll get televotes from the West + I don't see him getting well received by the juries with those vocals.
