:es: is probably my fave and i think had the best snippet, although i think :fr: will win.

:am: snippet with the dragon looked really chaotic to me. Also Idk wtf :ie: was thinking with bringing Sophie back and putting her right up there. She looks like the main singer at worst, or that they're duet at best. A really weird choice that makes 0 sense.

I voted :es: :mk: :uk: although I did nearly switch one out for :ua:

I voted for :mk: , :al: and :de:
It's the first time I believe that the German entry is not bad, tbh.

Unfortunately, I don't like many songs this year whilst I had some favourites in recent years but I still think that all the kids perform well and I wish them all the best.
I almost voted for :es: and :fr:
They look quite fun in stage.

I wouldn't mind to see :nl: win to see a country win again which hasn't won for a while but it's really my least favourite song this year. I simply can't stand that EDM sound at all.

Germany, Albania & North Macedonia for me. But there are others I'd be OK with winning.
I'd be really disappointed if France won again though, it wouldn't be justified…
Looking forward to seeing the show though!
