This thread is inspired by me walking into Oliver Bonas yesterday, and 'Divine' by Sebastien Tellier was playing :shock: If we extend out to NF entries or Eurovision artists in general, I heard 'Smile' by Benjamin Ingrosso in a Brewers Fayre the other month

Being the only voter for Iceland in the SF1 predictions thread, I need to stand by Hera. I'd love if Latvia could be a shock qualifier as well, mainly just for them to break the NQ streak but I feel like the song itself doesn't deserve to be counted out as much as it is either.

Serbia want to give Bambie Thug a chance and we should be grateful

I really got into this after finding the first episode a bit cringe. Thankfully the awful ones were out quickly and we were left with a nice group at the end. Shame if it's not done that well, but I don't know how they'd be able to repeat the format anyway? Not convinced by how genuine any of...

Love how even the worst Melfest ever has managed to produce BT's favourite entry of the year! They've announced a London show for next March, glad I managed to secure tickets before this hot Blue Peter promo

Seems like a fair point, Ukraine were one of only five countries to give nothing to Konstrakta in the televote. Serbia are the most disposable from the first half for me easily, it's just the fact that they've never come lower than 11th in a semi-final that has me reluctant to predict them out...

This was a wild ride. The last movie that I saw prior to this was "Anatomy of a Fall" a couple of weeks earlier, and I loved that this was the second movie I was watching in a row that was about the aftermath of someone falling to their death from a height.

There's been too much negativity in the past few posts. This is my favourite of the year and I'd love if the bookies are right as my favourite hasn't won since Lena. Maybe 3rd would be the best outcome all round though - would make some money with the each way bet I placed at the start, would...

I really can't split it between Switzerland or Croatia, I'd be overjoyed with either. "The Code" is my favourite of the year and it would be great to see their recent better form topped off with a win, but Croatia are in my top 3 as well and I'd rather go there next year, plus it would be great...

There is no way this is the worst heat when we've JUST had heat 2, and Moopy had so little to choose from that somehow Liamoo survived to fight another day

If we thought Aiko sounded bad at the selection, I wonder how she'll sound sandwiched between two of the best vocalists of the year :basil:

As a non-competitive entry, I do find it rather enjoyable and loads better than his last attempt, and it will always be funny that someone somewhere came up with the idea of the prop falling over and thought it was a good staging idea.

I'm not sure it's even my favourite female uptempo of the year :shock:

Can't we just put Fröken through and tell everyone else to go home

If the expectation is that at least four qualifiers need to come from the second half (with Ireland being the one to miss from the first half :(), Luxembourg feel the second most nailed on to me after Finland. To say this was looking like the stronger semi, I'm now going through and being like...
