I can't say I find Sognu that amazing. He has a very strong voice and the song is very anthemic but listening to the studio version it seems constrained.

 

I'll need to hear the live performance to make up my mind, I'd bet the live performance will be where it really comes through.

France 13/8, Ireland 6/1 and UK 8/1 are the most recent odds. To be honest I think they are being hopelessly optomistic regarding Ireland, they should qualify easily enough thanks to them being on last, but I still don't see them doing anything better than bottom half in the final, unless they get a fantastic slot.
I really don't get it? I suppose they're getting SO many bets on Jedward from Brits who still view the contest as novelty $hite, and think that Lipstick will walk it, that it's become a self fulfilling prophecy of sorts. They're actually now expecting them to challenge for the win and are desperately attempting to cut their losses just in case we step into a parallel universe in the next four days and it actually happens :lol:

I can't wait to gloat like a bitch if they don't make it over several friends, who are convinced Jedward will definitely win.

Ridiculous odds for Ireland seriously. Update...

 

SkyBet:

France 6/4

Azerbaijan 7/1

Ireland 8/1

United Kingdom 8/1

Estonia 8/1

 

William Hill:

France 7/4

Ireland 6/1

United Kingdom 8/1

Azerbaijan 10/1

Estonia 10/1

I wish there was some way of reverse betting to punish bookies for having odds far too low.

I'm sure Ireland were at like 40/1 a few days ago as well weren't they? The only explanation can be that loads of Brits have been putting money on them winning. Is there any way of seeing other countries' bookmakers?!

Jedward's rehearsals were quite good, which I think shocked a lot of people - myself included. :lol: I wouldn't worry about them though, there's no way they'd threaten the top 10...

Jedward are plummeting! :o could Ireland have a chance of winning? :lol:

 

are the odds usually accurate? are they usually not far off how it turns out?

The winner is very rarely not in the top three of the odds. I don't see Jedward at all replicating the odds though.

Don't the bookies realise the fact Jedward can't sing and are two of the planets most irritating c**ts means they will never ever win.

 

 

I really hope they crash out in the Semi's, for Music's sake.

It's not the bookies doing it, it's the massive amount of British idiots who think the contest is a load of trash that Jedward suit to the ground having a punt that are causing it to go down. I have no doubt that if they were doing it precisely by how many bets were being placed Jedward would have odds shorter than evens - 6/1's probably being conservative for the bookies! Which is why France's odds are so short (as they're incredibly likely to actually win, thus disincentivising putting a bet on them), whereas at 6/1 the odd idiot would be tempted to put a tenner on Jedward.

Just can't wait to know if Jedward have the Eurovision X Factor. ^_^

Betting odds put them as second favourites to win! :o

Who really believes in Azerbaijan? I find their performance horrible. There's zero emotion and the girl can't sing at all. The choreography is hilarious to say the least. I was actually sure that either of the singers would've turn into wrong direction in the semi trying to do the moves... Even a map could have been useful (see 1:27-1:30 and 1:43-2:00 for lols)

 

Sorry for going off-topic btw

Jedward cut to 7/2 and getting closer to France whilst everyone elses odds lengthen dramatically :/

 

I'm actually starting to get a bit worried.
