Would you consider placing a bet on a top 10 (odds: 3/1) or top 4 (odds: 15/1) result? I'm thinking about it, but never did something like that :lol:

I put down a small amount on top 10 yesterday at odds of 3.5, so yes. I later sold it off at 2.5, so I'm in a no-lose situation (get $10 if Germany lands top 10, lose nothing if they don't), but I'd consider putting some more money on it at odds of 3+ if I could get them again. I'd say he's got about a 40-50% chance of making the top 10, based on the song, reviews etc. (though note that I've avoided watching second rehearsal snippets).

Top 4 is... probably a bit more difficult. It could be value, and I wouldn't call it impossible, but personally it's not something I'd consider at odds of 15/1. Maybe if it got up to 30+.

Ladislaus Kiraly and Falk Rosenthal are the directors for our performance. They said we are going to use the last 20 seconds of our song for the recap and it will end with the word "alone" in the background, so people will remember this picture in the recap :)

The Alone-word-thing is a good idea because people will definitely remember that, but then again people will remember the psychodelic spirale too. :D Gave me goosebumps.

It grew on me since I last heard it but it's still somewhere in the middle of the road for me. I think that he could do well if he really delivers a good performance but, on the other hand, he could still end up, for example, 17th. It could go either way. I could listen to it just fine but I'm not overly excited about it sadly.


4 points.

I'd be happy with the top 20 right now though :lol: But I really think top 10 could be possible. Let's see who will make it to the final today, it will matter too :mrgreen:

It's not like I truly believe in a top 10 placement ... it's just cool to at least have a shot at leaving the bottom 6 for once :lol:
I would be very happy with something around 15th or so.

The magic number is 18. If Michael can beat it it will be a new post-Raab record. Should be doable.

Should I be happy because there is no way on earth that we finish behind Ireland (so we're not last again).
Or should I be worried because such a near perfect performance like Croatia doesn't even reach the final?

A lot of ballads in the final already :/ This could lower our chances...
