Hmm, I counted slightly wrong. I think a lot of 2015 entries feel a lot more polished than certain ropey 2012 efforts though, there's no way I'm putting say, Litesound, Val mk 1, or Izabo above what those countries have submitted this time round.

In contrast though, this year's Moldova entry feels like it comes from pre-2012 and Pasha could slot in this year's lineup pretty effortlessly.

2012 was amazing. And 2015 amplifies this fact.

Even Val's debut was an enjoyable headf***.

I'm actually shocked at that! Albania and Slovenia were two that could've gone the other way (and the UK as both are very poor), but that wouldn't make a difference.

Finland // 2012: Pernilla Karlsson or 2015: Pertti Kurikan Nimipäivät (no contest, Nar jag blundar was a shock fave from its semi for me, and Aina min puuta or however it's spelt is possibky the very worst entry in recent memory)

Ireland // 2012: Jedward (Waterline) or 2015: Molly Sterling (neither are that great tbf)
Israel // 2012: Izabo or 2015: Nadav Guedj
Italy // 2012: Nina Zilli or 2015: Il Volo (easily, Nina <3 She still have sent Per sempre tho)
Latvia // 2012: Anmary or 2015: Aminata (it's not necessarily a phrase one should associate with Eurovision, but it's such a guilty pleasure <3)

Slovenia // 2012: Eva Boto or 2015: Maraaya
Spain // 2012: Pastora Soler or 2015: Edurne (probably my hardest decision, the latter is my favourite in a weaker year but the former was top 3 easily in one of my fave contests since I've been watching)
Sweden // 2012: Loreen or 2015: Måns Zelmerlöw (Mans is easily in my top 3 year this but this was the easiest decision, nothing can top euphoria)
Switzerland // 2012: Sinplus or 2015: Mélanie René
The Netherlands // 2012: Joan Franka or 2015: Trijntje Oosterhuis (probably my two favourite Dutch entries though tbf)
United Kingdom // 2012: Engelbert Humperdinck or 2015: Electro Velvet (both crap)

2012: 19
2015: 17

Closer than I thought, 2012 feels like one of my fave years and this year feels solid enough but weak by comparison.
