No, it's not a joke. I really like Montenegro's song. In particular, the music is in contrast to many top favorite songs very exciting.
The lyric is a little weak but still better than lyrics such as:
- We're going uuuuuu-up
or
- party for everybody! Dance! Come on and dance! Come on and ... boom!
or
- You know it's making me hot, baby, and I do not stop
My favourites are Serbia and Finland, but since they both won the contest in the previous years, I hope it will be Italy, United Kingdom or Iceland. Iceland would be great, since they never won the contest. But if I had to choose, I would be rooting for the UK, because my heart goes out with them.
if I were to pick a winner now, based on my intuition, I would dare to say Italy.
not so sure which of these forum's favorites will make a good result cause, as we learned last year, opinions here can be way off. actually, I'm trying to predict who will be juries' pet this year, and that's why I chose Italy.
