By now I love how open this years seems to be once again and how bookies are having not much of a clue about the winner at all
The odds are changing so fast every rehearsal day!
My comments concerning the winner - for now:
I wouldn't bet on this french pig in a poke. Anything can happen here. Juries might love it but is Covid-Europe really in the mood for this retro chanson?
The safest bet in my opinion. His performance gave me the classic winner vibes. I'm not sure if the mood of the song is the right one for this year though. In the end it could work with both juries and televoters though!
Italy emerged as a surprise contender during the past days and I can totally see it now! Almost every year Italy is a safe bet for a top 10 result and strong televoting support. Maybe both juries and televoters will go for it once again.
In my opinion
lost some of its potential with the pink staging. Personally I also don't like the electro swing style of the song. But in the end it might be the right song and right staging for the current situation where people want back party and fun. The strong vocals will also help with juries.
::ic It's a classic top 10 song in my opinion but no realistic contender. Last years song was way stronger.
Very, very overrated in my opinion. I appreciate the staging though, it elevated the song very much for me and it might end top 10.
I really wouldn't count this out! Maybe it's the right uptempo song for this year.
Could be a possible surprise in my opinion.
