It's not patriotism. Since 1977 you haven't won. It's time

"French" and "victory" doesn't fit together

 

[PeterLPZ]

I think, or will win this year.

 

[Juampi123]

I thought Hungary sounded great in that reherseal, what a voice!

It would be a big joke if Ireland or let alone Greece won. Because how on earth are they gonna afford it??

So I'm definitely rooting for Ireland to take the crown!

Whoever last last laughs best!!

Oh, don't worry about that!
The winner may say that can not host the contest next year and let the country who ranked 2nd to do the job.

 

[Misterbio]

I have three favorites: Estonia, Azerbeidjan and Ireland

[Sorcery]

Hungary will win!!!!!!!!!

 

[LakZaNokte]

I'm predicting the following top 10 (in random order, it's really hard to predict ranking this year):
and or

I really doubt that

it makes things worse when you look like you can even afford to host even a one night event like eurovision and you want to look good to europe, to tourist, to investers.


I'm not saying some tv boss won't be relieved not to win lol but i haven't the single doubt in my mind that should Ireland or Greece win tonight it's Athens or Dublin 2012 or any city the countries would find suitable

 

[babadabada]

I totally agree with you! Moreover, I don't think the country came 2nd the final night will be ok to organize the event, because the mediatic impact would not be the same as if it was the last edition winner!!

 

[Synergise]

Making your mind up:

Thanks for this. From what I'd heard, I'd thought Blue had sung a lot worse.

Overall, this seems like a much stronger final than last year. I really can't predict the end result (but if I had to guess, I'd go for France simply because it stands out).

 

[kalimantan]

Sweden has no chance of winning
The UK will pick up votes from western Europe
The jury will generally vote for the ballad
Former Soviet republics will share with each other voices
Balkan states will also share the voices
Decide diaspora in Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Italy, Spain and France.
My forecast is that it will be in the top ten in random order are:

Bosnia and Herzegovina
Hungary
France
Russia
Azerbaijan
Serbia
United Kingdom
Germany
Moldova
Ukraine

 

[Gordon_Shumway]

The following list is based on my personal taste, so it is a pure wish-list:

Top-Entries in my opinion:

01 Finland
02 Azerbaijan
03 Estonia
04 Hungary
05 Austria
06 Switzerland
07 Germany
08 Bosnia
09 Iceland
10 Denmark

Midfield:

11 Ukraine
12 Serbia
13 Georgia
14 Spain
15 Romania
16 Ireland
17 Slovenia
18 Latvia

from not so good to horrible:

19 Greece
20 Italy
21 Russia
22 United Kingdom
23 France
24 Moldova
25 Sweden times 10

And my prediction for the actual result looks like that:

01 France

03 Estonia
04 United Kingdom
05 Azerbaijan
06 Hungary
07 Sweden
08 Russia
09 Germany
