33. Portugal (Avg. 4.00) - For one person this was the third best song but for most it was either a love or hate. Two people gave it 1 (me included). People thought this was very weird.

A solid year, I can see the top nine all being enduring favourites. I'm really taken by the Irish entry even though it will do nothing, it's the sort of MOR pop I really like.

 

Zero Gravity has everything for me, Kate is wonderful <3 And Too Late For Love is the best Melfest winner since Heroes for me.

 

Bigger Than Us has a lot of replayability for me, it's very 'X Factor winner's single' but the final minute is actually great, really anthemic and a much, much stronger entry than Storm for me (though I loved Surie). I hope Michael can somehow avoid the bottom five.

 

I'm so intrigued as to how Hatari and Conan will go down, both are so brilliantly different.

'Soldi' is just phenomenal, I really hope they don't pull a Gabbani on the staging in Tel Aviv. 'Telemóveis' is always stuck in my head as well, the best Portuguese entry ever and you can take that to the bank. I still love 'Arcade' but the previous two have just been edging it for me recently, but I would still be over the moon with a Dutch victory. Azerbaijan and Switzerland round out an all male top 5 and no one is more shocked than myself.

Switch Italy and Portugal (don't forget to put MARUV in 1.5th place too) and I have the exact same Top 3. The first two are in my regular playlist on repeat. Not getting bored of either of them in the slightest.

 

The feminist in me is cringing but 2019 is definitely male.

I didn't want to rate the songs until I've got used to them, so here's my ranking. The top 3 are all 12/10 songs.

 

Holy Trinity

01. The Netherlands // Duncan Laurence - Arcade

02. Greece // Katerine Duska - Better Love

Some quite big changes. Australia are still being horrendously overlooked, praying they do a Denmark 2018 and outperform expectations. The Netherlands is really lodging itself as a big favourite now and would make a great winner and Hatari still really stand out so much <3 Italy also climb into the top ten, took its time to worm its way into my affections but it's very much there now.

 

Further down, Czech Republic, Belarus and Montengro (!) have proved big growers whereas Norway and Russia are sounding gradually less good with each listen. The entire ok section apart from maybe Austria, which just could have been much better, sound straight out of Eurovision 2005, and I'm not really here for that.

oh gosh i thought i was the only one who has the same with Norway. It's just becoming pretty boring now after a few listens.. :|

 

I was scared to find out that I'm finding Romania PRETTY GOOD this year all of a sudden!
