As has been the case each week since the songs for Rotterdam started rolling in, the members of our forum have been fervently voting for their favourites in this year’s Eurovision Song Contest, handing out points to their top ten songs to give an overall Eurovision-style ranking of the year’s songs.
After the close of the polls at midnight on the 13th, marking the end of the seventh round of voting, we have a new leader!
What happened in round seven?
By gathering 643 points from our forum members, Finland‘s Blind Channel have jumped two places to take the round seven crown, pushing last week’s winner Barbara Pravi and France down to second with 615 points. Lithuania‘s The Roop drops one to third place on 598 points.
Finland, France and Lithuania have completed the top three for the last three rounds, with each act spending one of those weeks at the top. Can anyone break their dominance in the coming weeks to Eurovision 2021?
With a busy week of internal selections being revealed, there were a number of new entries joining the game throughout the week. Most notably, two of the week’s early reveals completed the top five; Italy‘s “Zitti e buoni” in fourth with 550 points, and San Marino‘s first ever appearance in our Forum Ranking Game top five with “Adrenalina” on 466 points.
The biggest climber of the week was Romania, whose song “Amnesia” by Roxen became a big hit with our forum members, jumping ten places to 7th. Elsewhere, there were big falls for some songs; Israel, Slovenia, Albania, Spain and Netherlands all dropping by ten or more places as newer entries were introduced.
