Kate Ryan of 2011

[AlekS]

Xandee was my winner in 2004! I just love that song!

I voted for her Even Ruslana said that she thought of her as of biggest competitor. Unlike with Ryan I was disappointed when Xandee finished so low.

I don't really think that ice-cream played a big role on that... Heavy air conditioning, yes but ice-cream?

Yes. Ice-cream influences your vocals. Didn't you know that? :?
I used to get cold myself after eating really cold ice-cream. Everybody enjoys summer and you deal with a sick throat. D'oh!

 

[Margerita86]

I have a feeling these might not qualify for the final in their semi's :

Norway, Hungary, Sweden and Estonia.

I feel that one of them will fail to make it through to the final.
I also think France might not do as well as some of us hope this year.

Well of course it can affect you but eating just one ice-cream... I don't know. Maybe you are too sensitive. I never got a cold from ice-cream and now that I live here in Sweden I even ate ice-cream in winter (they don't sell ice-cream in winter in Greece :? ) and I was fine...

^ Let`s hope that this country is Sweden

I really don`t see why everybody likes it. It`s not something new. Just typical and kinda boring IMO.

 

[Grinch]

I voted for her

Xandee was one of my favs in 2004. I voted for her too (eventhough she worn Fenerbahçe form @ the press conferences ). I still listen to One Life.

I also don't understand why she ended so low (altough there was a lot of controverse about her). But when you saw the crowd after her performance, it was incredible

1 Life was an amazing song, lots of energy but the vocals were off, IMO...

 

[VedatiNet]

I think and hope that will be Estonia and Norway.

 

[aletem]

Yeah I agree. I heard the song today about 10 times, and Xandee's vocals weren't so convincing for a song that has couple of lines. I mean the song is very good and no doubt that she deserved more points. Same goes with Kate Ryan. I mean, in 2006, I heard the songs for the first time on ESC and when Belgium came, I thought this was the one to beat. And then Finland showed up and I said, ok it is between those two.

 

[LadyKiller]

It could be Slovenia...

 

[FallenAngelII]

Eric Saade for Sweden if there's any justice in the world. Hopefully the juries will shun it, leading to it missing out on the final, possibly finally making the Swedish televoters wisen up and stop voting forth tripe to Eurovision.

I think and hope that will be Estonia and Norway.

How can Estonia be a Kate Ryan? Are people actually saying it'll win? I don't see how it could possibly come even close to winning. Qualify, probably. Win? Hardly.

It's easily one of the favorites to win. Gets in the top 5, usually top 3 in every online poll.

It's, together with , the bigest favourite to win, in the betting odds....

 

[Israeliboy]

Norway With all my love for this country and the song!

 

[Steffan]

Let's hope Norway...

 

[Arv]

I hope it'll be Estonia and/or Norway.

 

[A.B.]

I was right about Croatia and Slovakia last year.

I think that this year's Kate Ryan is France.

 

[Assuommath]

I think that Hungary will be the Kate Ryan of this year.

 

[DanielLuis]

Both Greece and Romania arent exactly favs.
