Spain and Iceland.

I'm not sure that France will "flop", because given their recent results, anything above 15th is astounding success... I sympathise France :p

I'm surprised that nobody has mentioned :it: yet. I'm fairly certain it won't even make it into the top 10.

This year seems very difficult to predict. There's not a Trijntje who I can scream "flop" at with confidence like I did last year.


:at: could be the shock DNQ. Moderately hyped by fans and it's just something I struggle to see picking up support.

What? Who would be shockef by their DNQ? It's an obvious DNQ.

Australia.

I believe, without the hype about the novelty of being the new kid in town, and with a relatively conventional song, this scream "flop".

First of all, this is :es: Spain, trust me. I want crazy spanish fans to cry hardly. Probably Barei will place 17th, as it was with pre-contest fan favourites :de: 2013 and :uk: 2014

Secondly, :ua: song is one that come in my mind after spanish. It can do high only with outstanding live performance. Otherwise, if it's okayish or good (as it was on national selection Final), i predict flop. Most likely, juries will downvote this song because of 'political' meaning. Same applies to televoting but if they impressed enough then top-10 is guaranteed.

Next one: :ee:. The song itself is good, the performance is bad and even forgettable. They will pass to final probably, but 16th position is the highest place this song deserve.

:am: - overproduced piece of crap. This will pass to final as usually but flops afterwards.

:fr: - i think he will not be able to deliver song to mass audience.

Other flops:

:mt: (unfortunately)
:it:
:ie: (not passing through the final. unfortunately)
:hr: (great song, but people don't vote for Croatia usually)

Maybe i missed few another songs, but you can fullfill list.

I don't see Estonia being that succesful too.
The song is good but it doesn't have that classy touch that provided GTY with a top 10. There is also a complete lack of climax that leaves me frustrated personaly and I don't think I am the only one.

True but if it was say a girl singing the song instead of juri I don't think id like it at all, his voice suits the song so much.

I'm sorry, I thought that's how western people act on forums to look funny.

Well, it seems you got it really wrong. And I'm sure this is not how Eastern people look funny as well. You're just rude.

I feel sorry for you, but I don't think Spanish fans will cry anymore after 10 years of undeserved flop after flop ;)
Sometimes deserved :)
You are always in the final, so it's not that bad, imagine what Czech fans feel, they were never in the final

In other years I would agree, but most Spanish eurofans seem so fanatical about Barei and her chances that I honestly wouldn't be shocked if we don't see one of the worst meltdowns ever to follow, if she flops.

I lost all my sympathy for the Spaniards ... I actually received death threats for putting Edurne on #6 in my personal ranking last year :lol: #sorrynotsorry
