I really want Slovakia to come back. Still disgusted @ Horehronie and I'm Still Alive not qualifying, especially given the amount of trash in their respective semi-finals.

Okay, now that we have 30 countries confirmed, I expect the following to totally confirm:
31. Belarus
32. Moldova
33. Georgia
34. Azerbaijan
35. Australia
36. Albania
37. Macedonia
38. Serbia
39. Montenegro

Bosnia & Herzegovina, Croatia, Romania, Turkey, San Marino, Slovakia, Liechtenstein, Kazakhstan... little to no hope. Even though a Romanian comeback and a Kazakh debut would be liT.

Can Kosovo debut next year or not?

As long as Spain doesn't recognize it, it won't be able to participate. EBU ain't here for the mess.

Belarus has confirmed their participation! 31 countries now.

i doubt she would participate. plus her playful lyrics are really important part of her songs. not sure it would work for eurovision.

Even without understanding the lyrics, Nafrněná and Generace are major bops! But I agree that she wouldn't do Eurovision, even though she could bring her sass into the English language and present a meaningful bop. Still, I doubt she ever will

Balkans need to hurry and confirm One giant gray spot on the map

Bulgaria, Albania and Moldova will 100% be in. Serbia, Montenegro and Macedonia almost surely as well. I really really want Romania back in the competition

What are they waiting for to confirm Australia's participation? It's blatant they're here to stay at this point.

Italy in (of course)

There'll probably be 40 countries in the end. Croatia, Bosnia & Herzegovina, Slovakia, Turkey, San Marino and Romania might not be there. But if only 4 of them decide to participate we'll break a record!

I hope Serbia sends a song sung in Serbian this year. Sanja's voice is one of the best I've ever heard, I'd be here for them sending her again with a more Balkan folk sounding song

I think she has more of a jazz voice rather than a voice suitable for folk songs. They have so many great folk artists from Zvezde Granda alone (their biggest singing talent show). My personal favorite is Milena Ćeranić!

I'd like to see most of the songs in the artist's native language in full and not mixed with English next year rather than having 3 this year in their full native language, I'm so sick of seeing artists (who aren't native English speakers) singing a full song in English, when their own native languages are always superior, it's so annoying

the fact that there is only two great songs in that list............. Pastora and Kalomoira

GUYS!!!!
Croatia confirmed.
HRT didn't confirm it yet but eurosong.hr got an e-mail from them saying the Croatia will indeed participate next year. The selection method is still unknown.

I hope HRT announces it soon so we can update the wiki page. I hope they send someone from the Voice again.
