Top scores - JackJones 49, rio309 48, Jason 47

This is the most recent song in the final, coming from last year's Eurovision Song Contest where it finished in 2nd place. It's the first Finnish language song ever to reach the top ten. It got off to a slow start with the first five voters giving it scores of 4, 3, 2, 4 and 2 but recovered after that to at least not finish last.

48. Rihanna - Where Have You Been 716pts

Writers - Ester Dean, Lukasz Gottwald, Calvin Harris, Henry Walter, Geoff Mack
Top scores - detonate 49, coi 47, Mack. 44
Low scores - King Rollo 1, Jade 1, jimwatts 2, dandy* 2
Average score - 20.5


This was the song that got through to final on a tie-break over the Paloma Faith song 'Only Love Can Hurt Like This' so it's not a big surprise to see it finish in the bottom three. It was the fifth single taken from Rihanna's sixth album 'Talk That Talk'. It interpolates the 1959 song 'I've Been Everywhere' which was written by Geoff Mack and first recorded by Lucky Starr.

Boo at the early demise of Cha Cha Cha. Though seeing as it must only just have scraped through the initial heat, I'm pleased to see it here at all.

Average score already over 20 for 48th must mean we’re in for some close results again!

Only Love Can Hurt Like This >> Where Have You Been so that’s a shame.

Cha Cha Cha is brilliant but not surprised to see such an off the wall hit near the bottom.

I do like Anastacia’s voice and it’s a really great song but not as great as most of the rest.

Not a bad start. Cha Cha Cha is probably my favourite of those but, having just checked, they all only got single figure points from me. That Rihanna track is okay but it isn't anywhere near her best work imo.

I had no idea that 'Where Have You Been' interpolates a 1959 song! Shame to see it so low as it's definitely up there amongst my faves by Rihanna. Quite like the Anastacia song too!

46. Madonna - Deeper And Deeper 736pts

Writers - Madonna, Shep Pettibone, Anthony Shimkin
Top scores - detonate 50, vibe 50, Dante77 48
Low scores - Dotty New Year 1, jimwatts 1, Jason 2, coi 2
Average score - 21


Madonna and Prince are the only acts to have two songs in the final and Madonna loses the first of hers today. Deeper And Deeper brought to an end a run of twelve consecutive top five singles for her from Like A Prayer in 1989 to Erotica in 1992.

Deeper and Deeper far too low. It’s overlooked in general though so it did pretty well to make the final
