Re: SWITZERLAND 2016
I think the cover song round is another way to assess the candidate's performance skills, but anyone can interpret its use in other ways
PS: I heard the original version of Vincent's cover choice, it's an awful song (I was familiar with all the songs except "Astronaut", so I decided to check it out)

According to Betfair, Rykka is the favorite to win tomorrow ahead of Vincent and Bella. Many of the other ESC news/fan sites have high praise for her song and fan reaction has been largely positive, but we'll see what happens

Mélanie René just announced that she will be on the Swiss final jury for the French broadcaster RTS. It's cool that the outgoing Swiss representative will have a hand in choosing her successor like Sebalter did last year

Re: SWITZERLAND 2016
Here is my ranking for tomorrow's show. I have a clear favorite and that's Rykka. She stands out in every way and leaves the competition in the dust if you ask me. Kaceo is a distant Runner-Up. I'd be devastated if Rykka didn't win but at least I wouldn't jump of a bridge if it ends up being Kaceo. Bella's song is also decent and has a James Bond vibe to it. But it's gotta be "The Last of our kind"

Re: SWITZERLAND 2016
Kaceo reminds me a bit of Renan Luce, who I like quite a lot. I also like, that it is a song with a different style of music and I like the lyrics. It's good to have a song that is not about love or love's lost. Really like it, but I doubt that this will have a big chance to win tonight.
Bella C: nice voice, nice melody, a bit boring perhaps. There is a bit of a bond song in it. I like it.
Vincent Gross: I really like the voice of this guy. It's a song that conveys positive emotions for me. The "uh-uh-- uh-uh-uh-uh"-part is a bit too long for my taste. Like it also a lot.
Stanley Miller: when I saw the video for the first time, I liked it better. After some time gone by and with the audition version I don't feel this would be a good entry. Too cliché and vocally shaky.....
Rykka: The video was great, but in the audition version she showed some vocal weaknesses. I wonder how she will do on stage tonight. Also she didn't convince me as a performer. But that may change once she's really on stage and has the whole package around her. For the moment I don't feel the same impact she obviously has on many.
Theo: That's one of the examples, where I prefer he would not sing in english. His accent is quite annoying. Also his voice doesn't convince me and the song is utterly boring and the lyrics are quite silly and shallow. He doesn't care about the world, well I think the world doesn't care about his song....
So, I'd be very happy with one of these as a winner
Kaceo
Vincent Gross
Bella C
I also can live with Rykka, with a good show of hers my ranking may even change totally.
For the two others.... I don't think they would stand a chance in Stockholm.
