Personally, I can see the semis going something like this

Semi One
01 Hungary
02 Sweden
03 Ukraine
04 Armenia
05 Russia
06 Azerbaijan
07 Estonia
08 Moldova
09 Montenegro
10 Portugal
--------------------
11 Netherlands
12 Iceland
13 Latvia
14 San Marino
15 Belgium
16 Albania

Semi Two
01 Norway
02 Romania
03 Malta
04 Greece
05 Poland
06 Israel
07 Macedonia
08 Austria
09 Lithuania
10 Slovenia
----------------------
11 Ireland
12 Finland
13 Switzerland
14 Belarus
15 Georgia

Ireland is one I could see getting lost and being the token 'shock' non qualifier (there's always one at least). Other than that I think it's fairly cut and dry, Ireland, Finland and Netherlands are the most likely to sneak in and ruin my predictions.

For some reason I don't think Sweden are as safe as everyone thinks. I do think they'll qualify, but I think Sanna will be around 8th rather than the top 3 in the semi!

I know no-one will agree with me, but it's just my opinion before everyone starts arguing with me! kink.gif

Which seven songs do you see beating her Ryan? ohmy.gif The quality is just not there (imo)

6th at the VERY WORST or I'll eat my hat!

Had we been talking about the 2009 contest where everything was top notch I'd be inclined to agree, but her semi couldn't define average any more if it tried. Undo is by FAR the best produced and most melodic song in the semi imo and Sanna will almost certainly deliver the best vocal on the night.

That said I still can't shake the feeling that as life's perennial underachiever she's doomed to fail after years of waiting to go to Eurovision drama.gif But if that happens then it will happen in the final, I could potentially see her 'doing a Portugal 2008/Iceland 2010' and doing incredibly in the semi only going to fall significantly in the final, but I hope not as I want her to do as well as possible!

I can see Sweden just getting a bit lost in the line-up as it is on quite early and I can see Azerbaijan getting a lot of the female ballad votes or will at least take some votes away from Sanna. It's a bit like 'Verjamem' I guess (but Sanna will still qualify I'm sure) as no-one here thought 16 songs would beat Eva even with the higher quality opposition!

I'm not saying it will happen, but I think Sweden is more likely to be a surprise struggler compared to the other semi 1 favourites.

So being brave, and/or stupid I'm going to go for some predictions biggrin.gif

Semi 1
1 Hungary
2 Ukraine
3 Armenia
4 Montenegro
5 Azerbaijan
6 Sweden
7 Belgium
8 Iceland
9 Netherlands
10 Russia
---
11 Albania
12 Portugal
13 San Marino
14 Estonia
15 Moldova
16 Latvia

Albania and Portugal are both borderline, I think Russia will just qualify to piss everyone else off though. Netherlands will get good jury votes. I actually really like Moldova and Latvia but don't see where their votes are coming from.

Semi 2
1 Norway
2 Austria
3 Romania
4 Malta
5 Macedonia
6 Greece
7 Israel
8 Ireland
9 Poland
10 Lithuania
---
11 Slovenia
12 Georgia
13 Switzerland
14 Finland
15 Belarus

More clear cut I think, although Georgia MAY scrape qualification (let's face it, they always do).

Final
1 Austria
2 Norway
3 Hungary
4 Ukraine
5 Spain
6 Armenia
7 Romania
8 United Kingdom
9 Azerbaijan
10 Malta
11 Montenegro
12 Macedonia
13 Sweden
14 Poland
15 Greece
16 Iceland
17 Italy
18 Denmark
19 Belgium
20 Russia
21 Germany
22 Ireland
23 Lithuania
24 Israel
25 France
26 Netherlands

I think Austria has the Dana Internation/Lordi factor, the casual viewer will be shocked, but then think "wow, this is great" though it'll be pretty tight with Norway. I may be underpredicting Denmark here, but mostly cos it's a bit shit. Armenia will do well but doesn't scream winner to me. If Russia qualify (which would shock noone, although I do think there's an outside chance of it not happening) then their friends will keep them out of the bottom five.

Austria? ohmy.gif I can't see it anywhere near the top five, the song isn't instantly memorable enough imo where Lordi and Dana's songs were.

I don't see Latvia coming last in the semi, it comes across as a memorable novelty entry that will probably score well in the televoting. I don't think it will completely bomb with the juries either, it's melodic at least.
