This thread is for any general Eurovision 2025 discussion not limited to or specifically about any country's national selections or song choices.
And its so funny İ also think this year is very weak (since 2017 for me) and i didnt like even 10 songs, actually 8 or 9 but among them there is no country u mentionedNow that I've heard all the songs, this year is the worst lineup of songs for Eurovision since 2011.
Like every year you will get a few people that will say "this is the worst year of Eurovision songs," and it's always over-the-top nonsense, but this time they wouldn't even be lying. I don't even like 10 songs from this year, not even 10.![]()
Australia is my fave (not a contender but it should be), Lithuania, Latvia, Albania, Austria, Czechia, and Germany. That's it.
At least the voting won't be as easily predictable for the fans this year.
It's an interesting proposal, and I wonder if it would benefit songs in their own language. I could see it going either way because it would kill all-time bad Eurovision talking point "the message is more transmissible in English!!!" but it could backfire on songs like that becauseWhy isn't every non-English song (or including non-English songs for that matter) subtitled by default in the viewer's native language? I can understand why there isn't obligatory English subtitling (I think the French would protest), but in the current year I think some kind of solution should be possible. Whenever I watch the news and someone speaks a foreign language, Swedish subtitles appear by default lol. Should be forced by the contest rules
Which Eurovision act are you quiz. What country did you end up getting?
Israel is going to go big with the televote again, less certain how juries will rate it.No, ok, this year is definitely not good, but it's still quite better than what it supposed to be three weeks ago.
TBF, in recent years there was only one edition which was closed since the beginning, 2022 with. 2023 had one major favourite in
, but in the end it was a two-horses race with
. And 2024 was really open, with
being a favourite, but with a big bunch of outsiders which were plausible until the GF -nominally
(and
who in the end won).
This year we don't have any song that really stands out, but I see just FOUR countries with a real shot at winning.and
are to me the major favourites, and their wins would be easier than the hypotetical Baby Lasagna win and the Nemo win respectively.
is definitely an outsider, but we have to see how will they be received by televote and juries and if their story will be the major story of ESC 2025 as it has been last year with devastating effects. And I wouldn't rule out
, this song with the right staging could be a runaway jury winner since it's a different proposal from both Tattoo and The Code.
