    The countdown to Baku is on.......Eurovision is upon us in less than 3 weeks!

    Who are your favourites this year? Which entries do you find dreadful? Do you think Europe will vote unanimously, or will it be a tightly contested contest?

    My favourite this year is Sweden, but I also am a fan of Iceland, Romania and Cyprus. I think all four of them will qualify for the final. I think Russia's entry this year is very interesting and could potentially do quite well in the voting.


    12 points to Sweden!

    I love Eurovision but have a policy of not watching any entries before it is televised.

    I just hope there is a song as good as the Finnish song from last year.

    I like Iceland and Spain the most! Italy and Sweden are nice too.

    I really don't like France, Belgium or Turkey this year...

    Oh and San Marino :lol:.

    I loved the Swedish entry. And I liked Cyprus as well, but I think that was more for the looks... I wanted Russia to win! xD

    I wasn't in to see most of the show, but Sweden's entry was indeed Euphoric! I'm glad it won.

    My top ten was, in order...

    1. Iceland.
    2. Turkey.
    3. Ireland.
    4. Azerbaijan.
    5. Sweden.
    6. Italy.
    7. Cyprus.
    8. Moldova.
    9. Serbia.
    10. Lithuania.

    With a tip of my hat to Norway and Russia. :grin:

    I am happy Sweden won. She deserved it, and seems to be an actually nice person. Did anyone else catch the female staff member giving her a dirty look while the wired her up, at the end? o__o I was sort of shocked. She just had this >8| expression...

    I loved Russia's entry. :] Ireland... Jedward didn't have my favorite song, but they had my favorite act. xD Which is why they got to #3 on my list. They're utter dorks and their music videos are terrible, but...

    Okay, the juries have much better taste (in general) than the tele voters :/.
