Listening to some of these really brought to my attention how much better some of them are than this year's crop.

It's funny seeing my ranks from a year ago, since they've shifted around since then. Prison is definitely not my #1 anymore. laugh.gif I'm hoping for a Bulgaria/Lithuania/Iceland top 3.

Anyone who voted for 'Alcohol You' should consider re-evaluating their life xx

Love that the only other person who joined me and Cameron in putting Armenia in the top 3 was Cameron of all people laugh.gif

I mean, it's right up my street and I stanned it consistently last year. Legit wouldn't have thought it was your cup of tea? laugh.gif

Yeah I'm more surprised at Brade being the biggest fans of Chains On You!

I mean it works both ways xx (but Jade matching Cameron's taste on something is less surprising than me)

13. Ireland: Lesley Roy - Story Of My Life (117 points inc. one 18)
18 points - RiseR 15 points - DionTheSats123, LexC 12 points - WhoOdyssey 11 points - Jason 10 points - Colm, PeteFromLeeds 7 points - Jahq 6 points - Jafet, SevenSeize 4 points - gooddelta 1 point - Alex!, AdamAloud, RobBot


14. Australia: Montaigne - Don't Break Me (117 points inc. no 18s)
15 points - NocheLuna 13 points - Alex! 12 points - Liam 11 points - Jerick 10 points - gooddelta, Jason 8 points - Jafet 7 points - Pavel, uhsting 6 points - PeteFromLeeds, Colm 4 points - LUKE, WhoOdyssey, Ghosty


So our second but this time actually separable tie are the saphic duo of Ireland and Australia with Riser's 18 being the lone point of differentiation for Ireland to pip them for 13th place. Other than the queer connection there's also a strong theme of bold artistic choices that may or may not have paid off, be that Mr Mime realness or Dublin Pride 2010 throwback realness.

Up next are the two unlucky entries who fell just short of Buzzjack's top 10...

Ireland was definitely a post-cancellation Lockdown 1 nostalgia fuelled staple for me!

11. Italy: Diodato - Fai Rumore (134 points)
18 points - Jason 15 points - uhsting, Liam, gooddelta 13 points - Sergej 11 points - Bre, LUKE 10 points - Iz 9 points - Jerick 5 points - Jahq 4 points - NocheLuna, Jade 2 points - n4yr, SevenSeize


12. Serbia: Hurricane - Hasta La Vista (118 points)
18 points - AdamAloud 13 points - Cameron 11 points - nickthenoodle, Iz 10 points - RobBob, Alex! 9 points - Bre 8 points - Vulker 5 points - Pave, dan-G, Jade 4 points - LexC, Liam 3 points - n4yr 2 points - Oliver


Two foreign language songs just fall short of the top 10 with both of them representing the two ends of the non-English song spectrum with Italy's poetic ballad and Serbia's balkan trashpop. For me, I know which side of the bread I'd butter but your own taste may vary. Interestingly enough there's only a few people who voted for both of these songs and only Bre and Iz who gave them both high points.

I decided to include the live version of Italy because even if you're not a huge fan of that song, the symbolism of the empty arena is truly iconic.

So your top 10 of 2020 are/were:

Azerbaijan: Efendi - Cleopatra
Bulgaria: Victoria - Tears Getting Sober
Denmark: Ben & Tan - YES
Germany: Ben Dolic - Violent Thing
Iceland: Dadi Freyr - Think About Things
Israel: Eden Alene - Feker Libi
Lithuania: The Roop - On Fire
Norway: Ulrikke - Attention
Russia: Little Big - Uno
Switzerland: Gjon's Tears - Repondez Moi

So who do we think has made top 5? And have we given a dose of the buzzvision curse to somebody who'll be back this year or have we safely given it to a non-returner?

Italy being robbed on here, just missing out on top 10. dry.gif

I'm still pretty sure Diodato would have done a 'Salvador Cabral' and would have won the real competition if it had happened especially with the juries votes. sad.gif

Israel top 10 really? pirate.gif

Russia, Germany, Lithuania, Iceland and Azerbaijan to be top 5 now please but I don't need to be a psychic to see Bulgaria winning this!
