WWW Song Contest #88

[fabbi]

Omg what's going on? I started listening sone time ago and keep finding myself giving ratings of 8 / 10 and more. Guess I'm definitely going to use the longer voting period if it goes on like that.

---

Also something else I noticed earlier this year: No matter where the artist's from, below basically every European pop music video there's at least 1 comment that includes the word "Eurovision" in some way.

---

Edit (2 days later): I don't know how I've done that, but I voted already.

Oh I thought we were already much further lol. That's probably because of the time it took so far (which is probably not even that much longer than usual).

Anyway let me post a prediction here:

Semi final 1:
1. France
2. Ukraine
3. Portugal
4. Lithuania
5. Russia
6. Canada
7. Greece

Additionally these songs also stand some chances:
1. The Philippines
2. Italy
3. South Africa (I can actually see this go really well - and even more since it's very Loïc Nottet.)
4. China

Also let me tell you that I had all these 4 songs in the first list at some point lol so I expect this to be very bad. However the semi final is generally quite the balanced one imo and there were no entries I didn't like.

---

Semi final 2:
1. Poland
2. Finland
3. Spain
4. Turkey
5. Belgium
6. Chile
7. Algeria

Whereas I'm not quite sure about the destiny of:
1. Japan
2. Iceland
3. Romania
4. Singapore
5. India

---

Semi final 3:
1. Armenia
2. Hungary
3. Sweden
4. Malta
5. Australia
6. Latvia (This better be true!)
7. Slovakia (I'm not 100 % sure about this, but let's be optimistic. )

A few other songs I can see advancing somewhere ore:
1. Taiwan
2. Cyprus
3. Thailand
4. Ireland (I think NGLA has found its fans here. I'm just not sure how many lol.)



All semi finals have some absolutely obvious finalists, but let's see how good (or bad) the overall thing is.

[Laurinda]

I was going back and forth on which semi is the strongest and they all have ups and downs, so for my taste, they are surprisingly even

Predictions are always hard, but here's a quick one:
SF1:
SF2:
SF3:

Have we ever had so many male acts in a semi-final or edition before? There are also many (male) duets  There's only one girl group and one female soloist  (Talking about SF3)
