Moldova // Zdob şi Zdub - So Lucky (39) I'm very happy with this year now and definitely think it's better overall than 2010 (although lacking a Satellite I think). I really like 26 songs and am pretty sure I'll grow to like quite a lot of those in the average category too. Plus it's always good when I feel like we have the strongest entry there :lol: But four male acts in my top five? RUN FOR THE HILLS :drama:
March 17, 201114 yr I haven't really got a good chance to listen to the eurovision songs, so these rankings are just based on a recap video I found on youtube: Amazing 1. Albania - Aurela Gace - Feel the Passion (Cautiously raising it to the highest ranking, since it's above everything else right now) Great 2. Germany - Lena Meyer-Landrut - Taken By A Stranger 3. Hungary - Kati Wolf - Szerelem Miért Múlsz 4. Azerbaijan - Ell & Nikki - Running Scared Good 5. Norway - Stella Mwangi - Haba Haba 6. Estonia - Getter Jaani - Rockefeller Street 7. Spain - Lucía Pérez - Que Me Quiten Lo Bailao 8. United Kingdom - Blue - I Can 9. San Marino - Senit - Stand By 10. Ireland - Jedward - Lipstick (It's good in an irritating way) 11. Austria - Nadine Beiler - The Secret Is Love 12. Lithuania - Evelina Sašenko - C'est Ma Vie 13. Finland - Paradise Oskar - Da Da Dum 14.Bulgaria - Poli Genova - Na Inat Average OR Undecided Denmark - A Friend In London - New Tomorrow Belarus - Anastacia Vinnikova - I Love Belarus Slovakia - TWiiNS - I'm Still Alive Sweden - Eric Saade - Popular Switzerland - Anna Rossinelli - In Love For A While (It does make me smile....even if the song seems so unoriginal, can't help it) Serbia - Nina - Caroban Italy - Raphael Gualazzi - Follia d’amore Georgia - Eldrine - One More Day France - Amaury Vassili - Sognu Slovenia: Maja Keuc - Vanilija Poland - Magdalena Tul - Jestem Iceland - Sigurjón's Friends - Coming Home Israel - Dana International - Ding Dong Latvia - Musiqq - Angel In Disguise Cyprus - Christos Mylordos - San Aggelos S'agapisa Bosnia & Herzegovina - Dino Merlin - Love In Rewind Croatia - Daria Kinzer - Celebrate Belgium - Witloof Bay - With Love Baby Netherlands - 3JS - Je Vecht Nooit Alleen Romania - Hotel FM - Change Russia - Alexey Vorobyov - Get You Turkey - Yüksek Sadakat - Live It Up Malta - Glenn Vella - One Life Poor 38. Ukraine - Mika Newton - Angel 39.Armenia - Emmy - Boom Boom (Something about this song really irritates me, in a bad way. It seems lazy lyric wise) 40. Macedonia - Vlatko Ilievski - Rusinka 41. Greece - Loukas Giorkas feat. Stereo Mike - Watch my Dance Ugh... 42. Moldova - Zdob şi Zdub - So Lucky 43. Portugal - Homens Da Luta - A Luta é Alegria (It's Leto Svet all over again, haven't we been punished enough? :manson:) I'll probably go into listening overdrive come about late March/April (sorta starting now too)... I want to give time for the songs to grow on me instead of just hearing the first time in eurovision. Anyway this is the proper start my eurovision ranking. If a song is average it's probably because it didn't make an impact on me in the recap. (Which was a lot of them) The averages aren't in any particular order yet. It's probably because I'm only starting to listen to them (and just a recap at that) but very few songs are jumping at me like songs I'd go out of my way to listen to. So when I listen some more this ranking is bound to be turned on it's head.

(41) Israel - דנה אינטרנשיונל - Ding Dong I like a lot of songs this year, the bad thing about this year is the huge amount of songs in English - disaster :drama: Edited March 18, 201114 yr by Luke_cz
March 18, 201114 yr 1. France 2. UK 3. Estonia 4. Denmark 5. Norway 6. Sweden 7. Bosnia 8. Italy 9. Germany 10. Azerbaijan I have been a little underwhelmed by the standard this year. I feel the winner will be one of France,Uk,Estonia,Sweden and Norway and that Blue are the best bet because they have been hugely popular in Europe, the song is good although not one of their best, and they can certainly sing and perform. I prefer the French song as I think all music genres should be in Eurovision...it is a dramatic song albeit a bit of a mixture of various operatic songs but aren't most songs generic in one way or another. The most instant songs are the Estonian , Norwiegan and Swedish. The Italian effort is also interesting being Jazz but I think it will suffer coming after France in the draw....might prompt Italy to withdraw again ! I was considering putting Ireland in the top 10 as the song itself is worthy of being 9th or 10th and Jedward certainly have stage presence but they will no doubt be the worst singers by far. Generally the Western European are a much higher standard than the East European this year. I think the theory that the west hasn't a chance against the east was blown out of the water last year with Germany's win and I would be surprised if the East fill much of the Top 10 this year although the Scandanavian/Batic pact might influence matters with Sweden, Norway, estonia and Denmark all having fancied entries. Edited March 18, 201114 yr by moth09
March 18, 201114 yr So far the total of the rankings from the people who have heard all the songs would have UK ahead of Germany, Hungary,Sweden and Estonia. May be I should have put Hungary in my top 10 !
March 18, 201114 yr Blue were at no point 'hugely popular' in Europe, they only ever had a modicum of success outside of the UK, and even that was fleeting. Only current UK bands that are 'hugely popular' in Europe are Muse, Take That and Iron Maiden. And none of them are gonna do Eurovision anytime soon.

Only current UK bands that are 'hugely popular' in Europe are Muse, Take That and Iron Maiden. And none of them are gonna do Eurovision anytime soon. They were at no point 'hugely popular' in Europe, but they were fairly popular - Breathe Easy was one of the biggest songs of the year in Italy, and they had a fair few hits in the West (Netherlands, Germany, France) with stuff like Sorry Seems To Be The Hardest Word.
March 19, 201114 yr They WERE somewhere between 'fairly popular' and 'hugely popular' here in Ryssland. :wub:
March 19, 201114 yr Just finished hearing all the songs. It's a good year. The Big 5 all have great tracks with only Spain being somewhat disappointing. As I previously said, SF1 is pretty intensevily incredible while SF2 feels like torture. From my First Impression Prediction I see Germany winning again with Russia coming second and Azerbaijan or the UK coming third. But then again I may be biased, after all Germany has, again, my favourite entry of all. Here's my first chart and opinions! SONGS THAT MADE ME GASP IN A "OMG THIS IS BRILLIANT!" SORT OF WAY 01. GERMANY - Taken By a Stranger 02. HUNGARY - What About My Dreams? 03. RUSSIA - Get You 04. LATVIA - Angel In Disguise 05. FINLAND - Da Da Dam 06. SWITZERLAND - In Love For a While SONGS THAT POSITIVELY SURPRISED ME 07. POLAND - Jestem 08. SLOVENIA - No One 09. AZERBAIJAN - Running Scared 10. UNITED KINGDOM - I Can SONGS I FIND QUITE ALRIGHT 11. SWEDEN - Popular 12. CROATIA - Celebrate 13. IRELAND - Lipstick 14. SERBIA - Čaroban 15. BULGARIA - На инат 16. BOSNIA & HERZEGOVINA - Love In Rewind 17. BELARUS - I Love Belarus 18. TURKEY - Live It Up 19. ESTONIA - Rockefeller Street 20. ITALY - Madness of Love 21. DENMARK - New Tomorrow 22. ICELAND - Coming Home 23. SLOVAKIA - I'm Still Alive SONGS THAT ARE ALRIGHT BUT LEFT ME UNIMPRESSED 24. SPAIN - Que Me Quiten Lo Bailao 25. AUSTRIA - The Secret Is Love 26. FRANCE - Sognu 27. ROMANIA - Change SONGS THAT MADE ME RAISE MY EYEBROW aka GUILTY PLEASURES 28. NORWAY - Haba Haba 29. ISRAEL - Ding Dong 30. BELGIUM - With Love Baby 31. GREECE - Watch My Dance 32. FYR MACEDONIA - Rusinka 33. UKRAINE - Angels SONGS THAT ARE JUST NOT IN MY TASTE 34. GEORGIA - One More Day 35. THE NETHERLANDS - Never Alone 36. SAN MARINO - Stand By 37. LITHUANIA - C'est Ma Vie 38. MOLDOVA - So Lucky SONGS THAT COMPLETELY MISSED THE POINT FOR ME 39. ALBANIA - Feel The Passion 40. PORTUGAL - A Luta é Alegria 41. MALTA - One Life 42. ARMENIA - Boom-Boom 43. CYPRUS - Σαν άγγελος σ'αγάπησα And I fail to see the winning appeal of the French entry. It's just an opera track, nothing new in Eurovision... :/ Go Lena, go! :D
March 19, 201114 yr It's a fair bit more rousing and anthemic than the likes of Cvet Z Juga and La Voix (although I do think it sounds like Cvet Z Juga before it got poppified).
