I would totally be va-caying with y'all to Oslo, it's the most obvious winner for me so far. But, I haven't had chance to hear every entry yet. I don't see much beating it, though.

Well, anyway it's gonna win :P

 

I had a dream like that one too.... :lol:

Lithuania slipped to the 'Average' category. As well as Czech Rep., Finland, Greece and Andorra to the 'Good' one. Malta, UK and Iceland weren't 'ESC perfection' this week so they move down one category. Norway still leading i am sure doesn't have to surprise you all, or does it?! :lol: My favourite ESC countries: Serbia and Bosnia & Herzegovina move to the Top 4 stepping on feet of Croatian entry which moved to No.2 so that Israeli entry had to move down 3 places and landed at 5th place. Interestingly, but my Top 5 ESC 2008 countries was:

1. Bosnia & Herzegovina

2. Israel

3. Serbia

4. Turkey

5. Belgium

The ones in italics are in my Top 5 so far. Would it change until the end of the contest?!

2007 Top 5 (iirc):

1. Ireland

2. Georgia

3. Serbia

4. Ukraine

5. Russia

 

2006 Top 5:

1. Bosnia & Herzegovina

2. Serbia & Montenegro :( Norway

3. Croatia

4. Romania

5. Poland

THe Irish song seems to be growing on a few people,on the night its hard to know how it will go,the uk song i think deserve sto do well but its the kinda of song that will be either bottom 3 or top 3 i think,perosnnlay i hope top 3

Norway are my favourite now... really loving it now and I think it's one of my fave Eurovision songs for some time! Got everyone at uni singing and loving it and getting it played on virtually every night out which has just made me love it more. :D

Fairytale is incredible! It's slowly overshadowing Ireland 2007 and is becoming my favourite ESC song now :kink:
