Which entry/-ies will massively appeal to the 'jury' but receive little support from the European and West Asian viewers? Vote in the poll and post your predictions.

Netherlands and Israel are big favourite for this one. Maybe San Marino too.

Also Cyprus if they finally get through, but I don't think juries will be enough for them this year.

 

[Trece]

for sure

But actually, the most similar song to "Be my guest" is "Straight into love". Both songs are probably too hard for average viewers, but the singers have very strong voices to get a lot of jury votes.

I thought this thread would be something like "which act will over-sing their entry"

 

[Jopi]

definitely

Well, this is not completely unrelated.

 

[DanielLuis]

I think it's possibly San Marino.

I'd guess:



Need to be a bit picky since there are disproportionately many entries catering to the jury taste.

 

[Narmina]

I suppose

^ mostly everything that is generic, cheesy, dated or over-sung.

edit So I've seen this thread has been merged with the "jury-wank" thread which this comment of mine ^ was originally posted in... I guess the definition in this thread is a bit different then... the countries above are my "jury-wanks"...

But entries that will appeal mostly to juries but not so much to televoters I would think:

, , , ,

and will have enough diaspora voters... and aswell (but I also think that one will attract more voters than just diaspora... unfortunately).

 

[SRBIJA]

Probably.

Voted

 

[Terence]

I guess will benefit from juries, and if they nail the performance down, too

Seriously guys, do someone REALLY think that Romanian song can benefit from juries? Really????

It builds on relations, of course. E.g. 2011 or, to provide a less extreme example, 2009 can be classified as jurywanks according to this thread's definition in spite of the fact that they were not really ignored by the public. On the other hand 2011 is a jurywank too although it was placed only 18th.

Why not if they focus on the vocals again? Remember last year?

There are alot of songs for the jury to choose from, I don't think the jury's will rush behind one song. If they do though I would have thought Holland, San Marino, Israel & Spain would be the likely candidates. While it's unlikely I wouldn't be surprised if Spain got alot of jury support this year.
