Plus last year's controversy, etc. I highly doubt this will come anywhere near a Q spot

And I thought CATS was utterly forgettable and bland. I think Wrong Place has a quality that could really captivate.

i love el diablo Group: Entertainment Mod Posts: 29,341 Member No.: 8,674 Joined: 15-April 09 User's Gallery	Yeah I don't think the attitude of Hooverphonic will have any noticeable effect (the most I can see the commentators mentioning is 'these guys were due to represent Belgium last year, this time they have a different vocalist' but even then they probably wouldn't even say anything to suggest it wasn't a mutual parting of ways). If it doesn't qualify, I think it'll be due to messing up the staging (quite likely for Belgium), the song itself deserves a spot in the final imo. Agree that a lot of these mentioned so far could end up surpassing expectations. My personal picks would be Russia and Germany - I still see people thinking that Germany is a potential last place and I'm not buying it, the pictures from the back-up performance make the staging look fun and I think it'll rack up a rather decent televote score.

It's an easily accessible pop song and the singer is attractive so it could manage to impress both the juries and televoters enough to qualify in like 8th-10th place and then wind up somewhere between 15th-20th in the final.

Who's Daniel btw ? Group: Members Posts: 15,563 Member No.: 1,804 Joined: 28-October 06 No Gallery Pics	Azerbaijan should surprise us! Only low top 20 in odds but will definitely end in the top 10 if not top 5. This post has been edited by Hayzayy: Apr 16 2021, 09:35 AM

So I certainly hope it does better than expected. In the fan preview event I went to last week it came 19th, which is at least much better than the bookies’ rating.
