Not a hit in sight this year, to be honest, which always makes it difficult to predict. I rather liked Poland which didn't even make the final. Of those left I quite fancy Ireland and Australia; Israel is still the obvious but really not a song. And highly irritating; slightly sinister. Cyprus doesn't do it for me at all. UK will be lucky to get into the teens I reckon; more likely twenty something.
I actually feel for once, since there is no hit in there, we must root for Ireland for social reasons. Take that, China. And let's send a message to Iran, Uganda and other places.
Like JK it's hard to pick out a winner. Norway will do well, Israel is very quirky but hasn't enough mass appeal to win, Ireland winning would send a message to China (though of course they have now been banned from screening it). Hungary will only get anywhere near the top if there is a Lordi style campaign to get people to vote for a rock band. UK doesn't stand a chance, even if there wasn't the inevitable political voting (I don't care about the song, so I'll just vote for the countries we are on good terms with or feel intimidated by). At least this time the ex-Soviet countries will not be obliged to give votes to Russia as they haven't made the finals.
Not sure about that Honey but I assure you - if you've got to miss lyrics, Eurovision songs are probably the best for that. So, a stage invasion for SuRie who someone thought was Michael Jackson. She actually did very well I thought.

Yes it was a really good performance. I'm not keen on the song though.
I quite like the Albanian one. Its like he is periodically possessed by Justin Hawkins.
