Ho hum:

Semi Final One

01 Slovenia
02 Croatia
03 Estonia
04 Austria
05 Netherlands
06 Denmark
07 Ukraine
08 Russia
09 Ireland
10 Lithuania
11 Serbia
12 Belarus
13 Belgium
14 Cyprus
15 Montenegro
16 Moldova

Reasonings: Russia I guess will be as late as possible, with the midtempo Ukraine breaking up an inevitable run of ballads in the first half after Slovenia opens. Ireland seems like a good one to open the second half with as they need an uptempo for that after a first half of ballads. Serbia and Belarus will be early in the second half too. Montenegro will be as late as possible before a ballad with presence (and all we have to choose from here is Moldova) closes.

Semi Final Two

01 Latvia
02 San Marino
03 Finland
04 Iceland
05 Bulgaria
06 Malta
07 Macedonia
08 Azerbaijan
09 Greece
10 Switzerland
11 Romania
12 Israel
13 Albania
14 Hungary
15 Armenia
16 Norway
17 Georgia

Reasoning: Latvia seems like a GREAT opener with that title and the song fits. San Marino will be sacrificed into second, Azerbaijan closing the first half after alternating speed of songs throughout. Greece and Switzerland early in the second half due to novelty and old man with Norway and Georgia closing out.

I think this allocation system will be good as long as Christer doesn't decide to play god and put his or crowd faves in the pimp spots or something.

I'll be surprised if Bonnie isn't given one of the last five spots.

Last would be fine, I didn't think it was great but reading back it must just be Spain 2009 clouding my memory.

My predix from the other thread:

01 Germany: Cascada - Glorious (of COURSE. It either has to be this or Finland.)
02 Armenia: Dorians - Lonely Planet (because we need to get that PISSING DRECK out of the way)
03 Malta: Gianluca - Tomorrow
04 Netherlands: Anouk - Birds
05 Belarus: Alyona Lanskaya - Solayoh (getting the tempo up after those few)
06 Estonia: Birgit - Et uus saaks alguse (another one that needs to go under the truck early on)
07 Lithuania: Andrius Pojavis - Something
08 France: Amandine Bourgeois - L'enfer et moi
09 Russia: Dina Garipova - What If
10 Belgium: Roberto Bellarosa - Love Kills
11 Moldova: Aliona Moon - O mie
12 Finland: Krista Siegfrids - Marry Me
13 Spain: ESDM - Contigo hasta el final (it doesn't really fit anywhere in here, and Armenia in 2nd is too much of a priority, but I wouldn't mind this swapping with someone like Anouk)
---
14 Ukraine: Zlata Ognevich - Gravity (life back up after ESDM)
15 Ireland: Ryan Dolan - Only Love Survives
16 Sweden: Robin Stjernberg (well, it's already been drawn here)
17 Greece: Koza Mostra & Agathonas Iakovidis - Alcohol Is Free
18 Hungary: ByeAlex - Kedvesem
19 Denmark: Emmelie de Forest - Only Teardrops
20 Azerbaijan: Farid Mammadov - Hold Me
21 Italy: Marco Mengoni - L'essenziale (let's SMOTHER HIM IN THE MIDDLE OF EVERYTHING)
22 Norway: Margaret Berger - I Feed You My Love (and give a PRIME SPOT TO THE QUEEN)
23 Iceland: Eythor Ingi - Ég á líf
24 Georgia: Nodi & Sophie - Waterfall
25 Romania: Cezar - It's My Life (which is a perfect contrast for...)
26 United Kingdom: Bonnie Tyler - Believe In Me (...the STAR MAKING HER ENTRANCE)
