December 14, 200816 yr Author Ashton: Red Blooded Women - You Made Your Bed // Prediction: 5th-15th [7th] Well, this looks very likely to do a lot better than Colour Me Dirty. Obvious electropop credentials should put this top ten, but it could possibly flop depending on whether it's been overhyped or not. I don't consider this likely, so I guess another 7th for Ashton. Rivandia: Architecture In Helsinki - That Beep // Prediction: 8th-18th [11th] Like CSS mixed with a little bit of Camille (if she was a lot funkier), this could really go either way. I'm guessing it will just lose out on a top ten place to Marina and the Diamonds by a matter of a couple of points to finish 11th, but it could easily go top ten...or eighteenth :( Simondly: Brandy - Long Distance // Prediction: 6th-20th [16th] Another that is fairly hard to call. It definitely won't do as well as Right Here, but its result depends on whether it is a) considered to be cheap, and B) overshadowed or thought unmemorable. I'm calling this as a mid-table finish at 16th for Simondly, but it could easily give them another top ten. Fervorosia: Lasgo - Out of My Mind // Prediction: 14th-24th [21st] I can definitely see this as being one of the big underrated tracks of this contest (along with the Land of Jack). I haven't seen anywhere enough vocal support for this to consider it a top ten challenger, but I reckon it could avoid a flop. I do think that just missing the top twenty and finishing 21st is far more likely though.
December 14, 200816 yr Well, we have to count it from VII as that was the first contest to really have regular semi-finals (and also my first semi-final :lol:), so who has qualified every time they've been eligible? :o Kopecka Eledan Nonsuch Quotosibb (?) Mdice (missed VIII by choice) Any others? :unsure: USJ :smoke:

It's fo' sho' not been overhyped :lol: I reckon low top10 between 7 & 9 as usual
December 14, 200816 yr I think the big shock could be Mdiče's Frankmusik-Three Little Words doing worse than expected by some. Yes it's electropop, but it's dull electropop. On the other hand I expect Kingdom of Shadow's Belinda-End of the Day to do better than than seers have foretold. Edited December 14, 200816 yr by 6weeksatnumber7

December 14, 200816 yr Author Quotosibb: Little Boots - Stuck On Repeat // Prediction: 6th-14th [8th] This will definitely do better than Meddle, aided by a more favourable contest atmosphere as well as Sound of 2009 promotion for Little Boots. She won't do massively better, but this strikes me as being a very likely top 10. I don't see it flopping - I predict 8th. Angelicland: Emilia de Poret - Pick Me Up // Prediction: 1st-6th [4th] As an essentially female version of OneRepublic's Apologize, I don't see this not doing well. Guaranteed to be Angelicland's best result since Ladyhawke I think. I had this down as a contender for victory this time last week, and I still think it is but that it isn't as likely anymore, if only because it doesn't seem to have widespread support as such. Either way, 4th place will still be a great result! :cheer: Sangria: t.A.T.u. - Fly On The Wall // Prediction: 6th-14th [9th] This one won't do as well as Gomenasai, but as a dark electropop track done very well I don't see this one flopping either for a nation that pulls off this kind of result very well. Another top ten for Sangria - 9th. Bhangra: Boney M - Rasputin // Prediction: 27th-28th [28th] Will be dismissed as the novelty trash that it is :smoke: 28th.
