Update :

Albania - 2019
Australia - 2019
Croatia - 2018
Czech Republic - 2019
Denmark - 2018
Estonia - 2019
France - 2018
Germany - 2018
Hungary - TIE (both great)
Italy - 2018
Lithuania - 2018
Latvia - 2019
Montenegro - 2018
Romania - 2018
Slovenia - 2019
Spain - 2019
UK - 2018

10-8 to 2018, although my winners this year are quite far ahead of last year, so I'd still put 2019 slightly ahead.

 

[BorisBubbles]

I'm going to adopt QwaarJet's system of adding the margins because that's actually a good idea.

: 2019 (slight preference, but I love both)
2019 (huge preference, I hated "#WeGotLove")
2018 (Mild preference, but I dislike both)
2019 (A no brainer. Mikolas is my LEAST favourite from last year)
2018 (by a Grand Canyon, can't stand Leonora's song.)
2018 (Strong preference, "Storm" leaves me cold)
2018 (mild preference, both are good but "Mercy" is great)
2018 (strong preference, "Sister" sucks)
2018 (Mild preference, both are very good)
2019 (strong preference, couldn't stand the Moro parts of NMAFN)
2018 (A no brainer; Ieva is my FAVOURITE from 2018)
2018 (mild preference, but both are just okay to me)
2018 (by default, but idc either way)
2019 (strong preference. "Goodbye" sucks.)
2018 (slight preference, both are god-tier for me)
2019 (huge preference, Almaia are painful to sit through)
2018 (mild preference, both songs are meh but SuRie has a winning personality)

 

[Sammy]

Rather than comparing countries entries, I compared the number of points out of 10 from my top ten:

So in 2018 I had
2 times 10/10
4 times 9/10
4 times 8/10
and several countries in the following places that had 8/10

In 2019 I have
0 times 10/10
1 time 9/10
1 time 8/10
2 times 7/10
4 times 6/10
2 times 5/10

So even though a direct comparison of the entries country by country would show me a balanced result between 2018 and 2019, there is a huge difference in my perception of this years contest. So - I hope the remaining countries will fill up my top ten with 10s 9s and 8s

 

[RainyWoods]

2019 - Quite easily 2019, but by the time Eurovision came I didn't mind 2018.
2019 - Both are meh, but I'm a sucker for a crazy performance so this year just nudges it.
2019 - This year Croatia needs Jesus, but I needed Jesus last year after that incredibly cold semi final performance which turned my indifference to dislike.
2018 - Both entries are ok. Mikolas was more exciting.
2019 - This year wins by default as Germany placed at the very bottom of my ranking last year.
Tie - Both I find kinda lame. I didn't hate 2018 by the time we got to Eurovision but I still thought it was weak sauce, and I think much the same of 2019.
2018 - Wasn't crazy in love with last year but I respected it and the performance. Easy choice.
Tie - Both are terrible
2018 - Last year was awesome, this year kind of a snooze.
Tie - Love both. Couldn't say which one I like more at this point.
2019 - 2018 had a horrible vocal style attached to it which stopped me from getting into it properly, so 2019 wins by default for being tolerable.
Tie - Both disinterest me.
2018 - Not crazy for either but I always thought 2018 had a nice chorus melody.
2019 - One of two entries from this year I'm actually looking forward to.
2019 - Not crazy for either but 2019 is just there at least and isn't annoying.
2018 - At a push, cause I fell out of love with that entry sadly by the time we reached Eurovision. Both are ok-ish.
2018 - Both are terrible but Storm is unintentionally funny.


2018 = 6
2019 = 7
Can't decide = 4 (3 of which are negative, 1 positive)

 

[Ana Raquel]

: 2018 (love both, but mall touches me more)
2019 (ughhhhhhh my dance academy angels going with kate because more popera-ish)
2018 (Crazy was bland, but The Dream is just BAD)
2018 (no spaghetti line sorry lake)
2018 (wasn't that much of a fan of higher ground but at least i liked it)
2018 (you all know i stan opera in eurovision)
2018 (i actually rooted for mercy so)
2019 (more because i hated you let me walk alone)
2018 (Origo would have won, but papai's new song is far from being as good as origo. also aws i love you)
???? (I still don't know)
2019 (more because i hated when we're old)
2018 (i could see my gorgeous brazil being represented + that night sucks)
2018 (not a fan of neither, but at least inje has a good last minute)
2019 (i loved ester, hated goodbye)
2018 (lea was my first place in 2018, hard to beat her)
2019 (my last of 2018 vs my first of 2019 lmao)
2018 (SuRie's song was weak, but acceptable. Rice........)


2019: 5
undecided: 1

[ZoboCamel]

2019 - Very close here. Eugent is the better performer but overall I think I marginally prefer this year's song.
2019 - Neither is perfect but I much prefer the creative, risky slant we're going with this year.
2018 - Both have nice mysterious verses; only one keeps that up in the chorus.
2019 - I do like me a good slice of ham (and wasn't huge on Franka last year).
2018 - Last year was a whole lot of fun and a personal top-10 for me. Beats out the "I kinda like it" song from this year.
2018 - Eeeeaaaaaasy pick. One I love, the other is a pile of twee mush I'd like to stay well away from.
2018 - I don't mind Storm but La Forza was right up my alley, and more of a standout. Another easy one.
2018 - Never quite got the hype over Madame Monsieur, but they definitely composed their own entry better than Bilal's.
2018 - I'm not in the group that hates Sister; Michael just had a somewhat better song with a more emotional performance.
2018 - I love both but as my #1 of last year, AWS easily takes the cake here.
2018 - MetaMoro had a strong, standout song; while I like Mahmood this year, I'm not really on the hype train.
2019 - Neither is really my cup of tea but Funny Girl got on my nerves for some reason and That Night doesn't, so yay 2019 I guess.
2018 - Not huge on either but I'll generally take "okay sappy ballad" over "okay midtempo radio pop".
2018 - Wasn't the best Balkan ballad, but hey, I like Balkan ballads enough to beat out this year's Montenegrin attempt.
2019 - The Humans did nothing for me; Ester Peony at least has some interesting elements and could grow.
2019 - Kind of an apples-and-oranges comparison between two things I enjoy, but I think Sebi's a bit more unique.
2019 - I actually liked Spain last year (before the revamp, at least). That said, Miki brings cheesy fun in a year that needs it.
2019 - Surie herself was lovely, but that's not quite enough here; see my Lithuanian comment above.


2018: 10
2019: 8

Seems about right, I guess. If anything I'd say things are a little more in 2018's favour, given that most of my 2019 wins are close whereas 2018 has a lot of my big favourites (Czech, Denmark, Estonia, Hungary) that I prefer over anything chosen so far this year.

Here's hoping for this weekend to pull things slightly back towards the 2019 side of the scale! Which is absolutely possible if the favourites survive for once this season (KEiiNO, Hatari and Conan would easily beat their 2018 counterparts for me)... time will tell though, I guess.
