March 16, 201312 yr 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.

May 16, 201312 yr 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.
May 16, 201312 yr 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)
