Allocation draw

[Brandt]

Poor Cyprus...
Hope Israel,San Marino,Malta & Azerbaijan vote for Cyprus.

Isn't that early to wish for a country to get points, especially if the song haven't been revealed yet?

Oh my! The draw between both semis is quite exciting I must say. Most of the certain qualifiers are in semi 1, while I guess some surprise countries will get to the final in semi 2. If they don't mess up with their entry, Poland is almost sure to qualify!

Highlights:
--I'm happy for Poland's, Latvia's and Slovenia's second half.
--Eventually, the two warriors won't compete in the same semi.
--I only feel bad for Macedonia, Belgium and Estonia in the first half of the first semi. With Greece, Armenia, Serbia, Denmark, Russia, Romania and Hungary, it'll be hard to qualify imo.
--I'm sure The Netherlands, Sweden and Czech Republic will have a nice spot in the final draw.
--I hope we won't see Romania or Hungary closing the first semi.
--Italy will vote in the same semi as San Marino, don't know if it change anything to the outcome though.

I'm satisfied with this allocation draw so far, now I look forward to the final draw, I hope no one will be screwed too much.

took a break last year to back stronger

The questions we are all anxious to know is:

Which Swedish Composers will write the entry this time?
How much Money will be spent on the entry?
Which countries votes they will try to cheat in
Which bad excuses that will arise if they flop

We got the worst draw again! I am pretty sure we are no-hopers... and the producers will give us 2nd or 3rd spot - because we have always had these spots in semi-final 1. 80% countries of that semi almost never vote for us.

Hahah..yes maybe but,whatever the song is for Cyprus, it's very hard to qualify..

If "Goodbye To Yesterday" wins then I'm sure you will easily qualify. Depending if the quality of songs continue to be average.

Cyprus would need more than five Greeces voting in their semi to qualify if we look at the crap they have in their NF.

"Goodbye to yesterday" is a certain qualifier no matter the running order or the countries voting in the semifinal.

OMG just got the golden ticket

They usually send unpopular and not good songs, that's the case. Nothing else.

Semifinal 1 is really hard!!
I was hoping that Albania had a chance this year, but it's gonna be hard for Albania to qualify!

Semifinal 2 seems like a "easy" semifinal, the only 2 who are sure to qualify is Azerbaijan and Sweden

If they do this, this is scandalous. It's your turn to have one of the last places of the first half.

I thought the same in 2013. And in 2014...
2008 - 3rd spot in SF1
2009 - SF2
2010 - 3rd spot in SF1
2011 - SF2
2012 - SF2
2013 - 2nd spot in SF1
2014 - 3rd spot in SF1

Well, when the draw was random, it all relied on luck (or bad luck cf. Monténégro ), there was nothing to discuss, but with this fixed draw, you got an early start twice in a row, which was already unfair. Now third time on purpose would be disgraceful.

I wouldn't be too sure on Azerbaijan, especially if they do another 2014.

Plus All of the neighbors are on semi 1 ��

Semi-final 1 is very interesting. I can see 7 of the 8 countries from the second half qualifying. (the exception being Belarus). That would mean that only 3 countries from the first half actually stand a chance.

I'm pretty sure that Moldova will stay out of the final once again.

I just looked at the languages

Semi Final 1, will likely have 3 non English songs (Macedonia, Albania & Serbia). Greece and Moldova might just be non-english as well

Semi Final 2, will also likely have 3 non english songs ( Montenegro, Portugal & San Marino). All of which are first half. Poland, Slovenia, Israel (and hopefully Lithuania) could go non english as well.

Semi Final 2, for sure has the better opportunity for language variety.
