Shame that Uktaine has sent that awful song instead of the original. The original sounded like a winner to me. UK needs to send something bugger and more experimental instead of trawling through radio 2 hits for every contest.

Final pre-full lineup ranking.

 

Amazing

 

01 France: Alvan & Ahez - Fulenn

02 Greece: Amanda Tenfjord - Die Together

 

Great

 

03 Spain: Chanel - SloMo

04 Ireland: Brooke - That's Rich

05 Netherlands: S10 - De diepte

06 Latvia: Citi Zeni - Eat Your Salad

07 Czech Republic: We Are Domi - Lights Off

08 Montenegro: Vladana - Breathe

09 Cyprus: Andromachie - Ela

10 Australia: Sheldon Riley - Not The Same

11 Switzerland: Marius Bear - Boys Do Cry

12 Albania: Ronela Hajati - Sekret

13 Finland: The Rasmus - Jezebel

14 United Kingdom: Sam Ryder - Space Man

15 Italy: Mahmood & Blanco - Brividi

 

Good

 

16 Norway: Subwoolfer - Give That Wolf A Banana

17 Austria: LUMIX feat. Pia Mia - Halo

18 Israel: Michael Ben-David - I.M

19 Estonia: Stefan - Hope

20 Poland: Ochman - River

21 Denmark: REDDI - The Show

22 Ukraine: Kalush Orchestra - Stefania

23 Moldova: Zdob si Zdob & Frati Advahov - Trenuletul

24 San Marino: Achille Lauro - Stripper

 

OK

 

25 Belgium: Jeremie Makiesse - Miss You

26 Croatia: Mia Dimsic - Guilty Pleasure

27 Romanai: WRS - Llamame

28 Malta: Emma Muscat - Out Of Sight

29 Lithuania: Monika Liu - Sentimentai

30 North Macedonia: Andrea - Circles

31 Germany: Malik Harris - Rockstars

32 Georgia: Circus Mircus - Lock Me In

 

Meh

 

33 Slovenia: LPS - Disko

34 Bulgaria: Intelligent Music Project - Intention

 

No

 

35 Serbia: Konstrakta - In Corpore Sano

Updating to add the five that have come out since - some good additions!

 

Great

 

1. United Kingdom: Sam Ryder - Space Man The first UK entry I've been really rooting for since Molly. For once I have some hope that we won't be bottom five, I just hope the televoters connect with it. His live performance on The One Show was effortlessly good, he has a fantastic voice, he's a great performer and the track has a huge chorus that was lodged in my head after the first listen - pretty unusual for a UK entry

2. Denmark: Reddi - The Show

3. Greece: Amanda Tenfjord - Die Together Could certainly see this as a big post-contest hit, sounds very TikTok indeed and nothing like anything Greece have ever sent before - it's been a very long time they've been this high in my rankings

4. Austria: LUMIX feat. Pia Mia - Halo I'll be listening to the studio of this a lot, reminds me of a more urgent and less 80s version of Hero by Raylee. Hope it works live!

5. Norway: Subwoolfer - Give That Wolf A Banana

6. Croatia: Mia Dimšić - Guilty Pleasure

 

Very Good

 

7. Finland: The Rasmus - Jezebel

8. Switzerland: Marius Bear - Boys Do Cry

9. Italy: Mahmood & Blanco - Brividi

10. Cyprus: Andromachie - Ela They've been so great since Fuego. This is not on the level of the last few but it's still really good.

11. Germany: Malik Harris - Rockstars

12. Ireland: Brooke - That's Rich

13. Malta: Emma Muscat - Out Of Sight

 

Good

 

14. North Macedonia: Andrea - Circles

15. Spain: Chanel - SloMo

16. Poland: Ochmann - River

17. Estonia: Stefan - Hope

18. Czech Republic: We Are Domi - Lights Off

19. Netherlands: S10 - De Diepte

20. Ukraine: Kalush Orchestra - Stefania

21. Albania: Ronela Hajati - Sekret

22. France: Alven & Ahaz - Fulenn

23. Belgium: Jeremie Makiesse - Miss You Pretty funky as it gets going, great production and bound to be a grower

 

Quite good

 

24. San Marino: Achille Lauro - Stripper

25. Serbia: Konstratka - In corpore sano

26. Montenegro: Vladana - Breathe

27. Romania: WRS - Llámame

 

Ok

 

28. Georgia: Circus Mircus - Lock Me In

29. Slovenia: LPS - Disko

30. Lithuania: Monika Liu - Sentimentai

31. Australia: Sheldon Riley - Not The Same

 

Bad

 

32. Latvia: Citi Zēni - Eat Your Salad

33. Moldova: Zdob și Zdub & Frații Advahov - Trenulețul

34. Bulgaria: Intelligent Music Project - Intention

35. Israel: Michael Ben David - I.M.

 

The overall quality wasn't brilliant until a few days ago but I try to avoid the 'worst year ever' discourse until everything is confirmed, as history has shown that a lot of the really high quality comes from the late revealing internals (and Melodifestivalen). The last few additions have indeed been very welcome.

Not me only having 5 first choices in Eurovision this year :cry:

Edited by HuhdMeClosting

a lot of good songs came out of the internals and the last national finals, I'm not going to attempt a full new ranking just yet with Armenia and Azerbaijan being late, but there's a lot of competition for my favourites this year with most of the lineup in position
Recent choices have really upped the quality. Iceland in particular for me.

going for an... alternative entry and a traditional pop pick as my initial full lineup 1-2, Serbia and Sweden are two very strong entries in very different ways - Montenegro, Lithuania, Albania and Austria are great followups, Greece would be another great contender, Ukraine is awesome and I'm fully behind the UK too. Moldova, France (YES BRITTANY DO IT FOR THE CELTIC NATIONS) and San Marino are also very much the sorts of entries I love to see.

 

plenty could change but yeah it's a decent spread of a year

Not Malta being the only entry I really like this year and everyone else hating it 😂

Post London Eurovision Party ranking

 

Incredible

 

1 (NEW). Sweden: Cornelia Jakobs - Hold Me Closer Absolutely wonderful live, Cornelia is such a fantastic performer and works the stage and audience so well

 

Amazing

 

2 (1). United Kingdom: Sam Ryder - Space Man Sam has an awesome voice and this song is definitely our best in years, I hope it’s reflected in the results

3 (2). Denmark: Reddi - The Show I really love this and they were solid live, hope it can scrape a qualification

4 (5). Norway: Subwoolfer - Give That Wolf A Banana Such great fun, but impossible to tell how it will do in the results, presumably midtable with a great televote and poor jury vote

5 (3). Greece: Amanda Tenfjord - Die Together

6 (NEW). Malta: Emma Muscat – I Am What I Am A big surprise for me, much better than her previous song, it’s uplifting in a late 90s chart pop meets The Mamas sort of way, it’s just a shame the lyrics are so cliched. I’d like to see it qualify

7 (4). Austria: LUM!X feat. Pia Mia - Halo Pia was I believe the only act to mime yesterday? So it was hard to get much more of a feel of this but it’s of course a great commercial dance song in its studio version. Not certain I see it qualifying, but I need to hear a live vocal

8 (6). Croatia: Mia Dimšić - Guilty Pleasure A lovely little song but I’m not sure I see it qualifying sadly

9 (22). France: Alven & Ahaz – Fulenn Feels like a dark horse for the top five, can certainly see it winning over the televoters – it was really good live

 

Very Good

 

10 (18). Czech Republic: We Are Domi - Lights Off

11 (7). Finland: The Rasmus - Jezebel

12 (15). Spain: Chanel – SloMo This was SO good live, she is an absolute performer and such a good dancer, the chorus is a massive earworm but otherwise it could be more interesting musically. Either way, it MUST lift them to a respectable finish

13 (12). Ireland: Brooke - That's Rich

14 (10). Cyprus: Andromachie - Ela

15 (19). Netherlands: S10 - De Diepte Rising in my affections and breaking through

16 (NEW). Portugal: Maro - Saudade Saudade

17 (9). Italy: Mahmood & Blanco – Brividi This I like a lot still but it’s been overtaken by others in my affections

18 (8). Switzerland: Marius Bear - Boys Do Cry Can be grating or charming, depending on my mood

19 (16). Poland: Ochmann – River I could see this being very big, he was really strong live, but it does just feel like Arcade 2.0 to me, which is hindering its ranking a little here

20 (NEW). Iceland: Systur - Með hækkandi sól Can see this going higher in my ranking

 

Good

 

21 (11). Germany: Malik Harris – Rockstars I wasn’t mad on this live, didn’t feel it stood out at all

22 (14). North Macedonia: Andrea – Circles I like this and she was good live but it doesn’t quite tick all the boxes

23 (30). Lithuania: Monika Liu – Sentimentai She’s a star! Song is quickly growing too

24 (17). Estonia: Stefan – Hope I thought this would stand out more on stage…it didn’t come across as sounding particularly big live

25 (21). Albania: Ronela Hajati - Sekret

26 (27). Romania: WRS – Llámame

27 (20). Ukraine: Kalush Orchestra - Stefania

28 (23). Belgium: Jeremie Makiesse - Miss You

 

Quite good

 

29 (32). Latvia: Citi Zēni - Eat Your Salad I’m not the target audience for this but this went down so well last night and it’s so infectious, I can both see it storming the televote and going viral

30 (25). Serbia: Konstratka - In corpore sano

31 (NEW). Armenia: Rosa Linn - Snap

32 (24). San Marino: Achille Lauro - Stripper

33 (26). Montenegro: Vladana - Breathe

 

Ok

 

34 (28). Georgia: Circus Mircus - Lock Me In

35 (29). Slovenia: LPS - Disko

36 (34). Bulgaria: Intelligent Music Project – Intention

37 (31). Australia: Sheldon Riley - Not The Same

38 (NEW). Azerbaijan: Nadir Rustamli - Fade To Black

 

Bad

 

39 (33). Moldova: Zdob și Zdub & Frații Advahov - Trenulețul

40 (35). Israel: Michael Ben David - I.M.

 

Turned into a very good year for me, two really fantastic songs and a lot of other great stuff. I'm a bit worried for the qualification chances of Denmark, Malta, Austria and Croatia among my big favourites.
