As well, I forgot about that. Saturn in Capricorn is really harsh, intolerant and cynic. Until 2020.

Yep. I'm happy that you're happy which is a lie cause the only thing I truly care about is own darn happiness but it's the polite thing to say.

What's your prediction for the winner this year?

You have your point good but maybe because you are more attached to .com while I have been a member of .net since I was 11 so I feel like my home is more that place than your place. But thanks for elaborating
I think this forum in general is miles above .net. You may be forced to use 4 digits but at least our forum is well organised and not looking like it is still stuck in 2007. :'D EscYOUnited wins every time to .net.

Hugely disappointed by Ida Maria (who was my favourite until tonight).
Out of voice, out of tune, dressed like La Pimpa, tripping on the stage, skipping words, with a totally random cheerleader team performance in the background.
That was the epitome of not even trying and winging it at the last second. xdown
She'd much better stick to songwriting (which she's good at) and leave the stage to someone else.

Well I personally think the song is tailor-made to be performed best live and I think it was a wonderful performance

First, I thought Heavy Metal (Hungary), because Scorpio and Capricorn are very heavy metal-ish. Lordi won when Jupiter was in Scorpio the last time.
Yeah, Hungary is the dark horse this year, but songs that embrace pain, darkness and gloom have a good shot. Portugal, France and Italy are very much on point with their themes (grief, mercy and raw anger)
Maybe Cyprus, because Scorpio is not only dark but sexual and slutty and steaming performance might garner more points than usual. But dance acts never won, when Eurovision is the Taurus part of May.

If you rip a part of your wand and give it to me for the Sunday night, I could blast you away with the unpredictability you'll be looking for. I won't disappoint I swear!
2018 is a year suited for my taste only.. therefore others are not pleased
in more than half of all the national finals a song that i like won

Considering the title of the song and that he won by a landslide in 2009, this entry is rather underwhelming. He's lucky Norway is in semi 2. He clearly isn't the new Johnny Logan. A violin cannot save everything. At least his bulge looked fine and he will probably get points from Scandinavia and Eastern Europe due to his origin.
Shoo-bee-doo-bee dab dab (Shoo-bee-doo-bee dab dab)
Sha-ba-da-da hey (Sha-ba-da-da hey)
That's how you write a song
I give it 5 points.

Thanks! I've been thinking of Hungary as well lately I think people are underestimating it, but we'll see what happens in May

I won't be rude if you guys grant the 1 digit rule as well! Then I won't have any reason to badmouth your forum at all!

I predicted Portugal last year based on astrological patterns (and my personal taste), so I guess Hungary is the favourite this year. (But I dont really like the song)

It was very clear with international jury voting that he has massively profited from Eastern European countries points. That's his only chance. I would expect that he will do moderately well and will get in the final of course, but will be below top 10 there.

Doesn't Austria as a country has a quite strong Scorpio energy ? Could be a good result for Austria.

Not the worst thing to ever happen to Eurovision, but a rather disappointing comeback from an artist who was once a clear and impressive winner with a fantastic song. This one's okay; some elements of it annoy me (e.g. the scatting and parts of the melody), while others are good (e.g. Rybak's charisma, the violin bridge).
On the whole, at least it isn't another piece of midtempo chart pop, and it also isn't Rebecca. 5 points.
Still not at all a fan of the YOU change to the name But we have likes (which I spam way too much to go without) and our servers don't, um, reliably crash and burn every time there's a live event going on, so yes, hooray for ESCUnited~
