May 16, 20196 yr Malta's dead then. Luca and Kate MH back-to-back is going to slay so hard. I'm gonna be deceased and resurrected at least 15 times in that 6 min period.
May 16, 20196 yr Ffs at Malta opening and Albania death slot Fab for Kate though!! 12th is good for Duncan too, whilst I love Arcade I was kinda hoping for it to be like 3rd to crush it and really mix things up :kink: Oops at the UK also, I was beginning to think we might have somewhat of a chance with this to come top 20 (which basically would be a win for us) but it's going to get lost where it is for sure!
May 16, 20196 yr I'm guessing Norway didn't have a great semi then. I don't know this for certain but I'm pretty sure the people who decide the running order don't know the exact results of the semis.
May 16, 20196 yr Malta can still probably do a top 10 from opening but I'd say it's probably not in contention for the win at this point.
May 16, 20196 yr Author Going between Israel and the UK is pretty good for Norway I'd say! I think Estonia could be a shock jury top 3.
May 16, 20196 yr I don't know this for certain but I'm pretty sure the people who decide the running order don't know the exact results of the semis. That's interesting, I always assumed that they did. I guess there's no reason that educated guesswork couldn't resemble having knowledge of the results. Well, that gives me a bit more hope!
May 16, 20196 yr Yeah there's a fair amount of overlap with what they think did well in the semis with what actually did do well in the semis but its always an inexact science. Like they put "Color Of Your Life" between "J'ai Cherche" and "Sound of Silence" thinking it would be an also-ran spacer and look how that ended up doing!
May 17, 20196 yr Going between Israel and the UK is pretty good for Norway I'd say! I think Estonia could be a shock jury top 3. Ya that's great for Norway as it will stand out.
May 17, 20196 yr If we look at when the winner has performed in the last 10 years.. 2009 * #20 2010 * #22 2011 * #19 2012 * #17 2013 * #18 2014 * #11 2015 * #10 2016 * #21 2017 * #11 2018 * #22 We can safely assume the winner will be the 17th song to perform on Saturday. (Avg. 17,1) Omg I think I just predicted my own country to win. I’m ok with that!

May 18, 20196 yr Confused about Slovenia not being more popular. It's the most magical song that has been in the contest in years.
May 18, 20196 yr Confused about Slovenia not being more popular. It's the most magical song that has been in the contest in years. I’m guessing their attitudes during the SF press conference may have influenced the press voting?
