Seems like it's gonna be a 5-horse-race after all...
I think we'll see one of the closest races since 2003

I agree with you concerning
- I thought that it would flop and end around 15th place before the rehearsals but Jamala really ups her game with that live performance! and are clear favourites but why do you see as a contender for the victory? Just because of the odds? I really hope that this cheap copy fails like hell but I think its realistic that it'll place around 10th-15th place. But that's it! I can't see this winning. Oh good I at least hope so... :?It's still unclear whether we will get a close race or a landslide victory! I really have no feeling about that...
Well in the end these are the countries I would like to see winning and which really COULD win:
and As I said before, I really don't know who I really will be in the end!

I hope so
Even though with the new voting system it doesn't really have that much of an impact for the excitement.

I know that
is largely unpopular among the fans but all the people I played the songs to really loved "If I were sorry" - The song seems to have some kind of instant appeal. I expect a Top 5 place in the Televoting and only [insert transzendental entity of your choice here] knows what the Juries are fond of.

Well the few people I showed this years songs all said it was a cheap copy of Catch and Release so I still hope for a "bad surprise" for
... :twisted:
Right now I have no feeling if we will get a battle between
The most interesting question for me is if we will get a landslide victory or a close one! (Last year many people thought we will get a close one...)
Last year's voting was so boring to me
The fact that juries basically voted for the same songs in almost the same order made it anti climatic, there was very little variation from one country to another (I mean less than usual, even for the 1 to 7 points part). I hope we'll have a more interesting result next week, I want suspense.

I think we might know tomorrow after Amir's first rehearsal. He might become the clear favorite or the race could be wide open after his rehearsal.
For now and if the vote is split between too many countries also because Sergey will get a lot of support from the ex-USSR.
I think Sweden will get more support from the general public than from the fans but I don't think the juries will settle for Sweden again, so I don't think Frans will win.
I think France would be the best winner because France hasn't won in such a long time and because we would have a Big 5 winner again. Ukraine would be an interesting winner too for political reasons. Russia and Sweden are the two countries I absolutely don't want to win because I think it would be bad for the future of the contest and because I think their songs are too bad. Australia should compete more often before winning.

I've shown it to some of my friends and they really disliked it, to the point that they asked me to stop playing it

According to wiwibloggs France's staging sucked I think Russia is the safest bet right now. I personally hope it won't win but I can see this doing well in televoting because of the staging and the song being memorable. Armenia might be a new contender. I'm not crossing Out and maybe

I think Iceland need to be added to the list after that incredible rehearsal yesterday.
