[VoR]

Expecting a walkover here but might as well do the formality.

France: Bilal Hassani - Roi


Germany: S!sters - Sister


Italy: Mahmoud - Soldi


Spain: Miki - La Venda


United Kingdom: Michael Rice - Bigger Than Us

 

[VoR]

1. Italy (by a mile)
2. Spain
3. France
4. United Kingdom
5. Germany

 

[lolly]

1 Italy
2 Spain
3 UK
4 Germany
5 France

But really, after #1 It's like WHO CARES

 

[ButterTart]

1. Spain
2. UK
3. Italy
4. Germany
5. France

The first three are my favourites of the year so far, I quite like the German one but I’m not going to get attached. France is fucking atrocious.

 

[AGinAg (39)]

Italy hasn't done it for me YET. I will give it time before I play.

 

[Kevin]

1. Italy (probably best of the year)
2. France
3. Spain

4. Germany
5. United Kingdom

 

[Jacques]

1. France
2. Spain
3. Italy
4. United Kingdom
5. Germany

I think it's a strong year for the big 5, France is my favourite overall at the moment and Spain & Italy are also in my top four (along with Australia)

 

[ZZ]

I'm quite underwhelmed by all 5 to be honest. But after only one listen:
1 United Kingdom
2 Germany
3 Italy
4 France
5 Spain

France by a mile for me. If we're just going on the song.

Their performance is not good enough vocally. But the song itself is great.

Expecting a walkover here but might as well do the formality.

I'm enjoying the fact that this isn't the case.

 

[VoR]

Yeah I really thought Italy had it in the bag. I do like La Venda though.

 

[Raining on Me]

1. Spain
2. Italy
3. United Kingdom
4. France
5. Germany

The German song really is ATROCIOUS

I don't love any of them, though. Spain is catchy and memorable enough but would benefit from actual choreography and less like someone doing student karaoke.

I don't get Italy yet. It's certainly different and sounds like a very "now" song but it feels a tad too low key for Eurovision. I might change my mind seeing a live performance but I can see it being the same as 2017 for them if they're actually the favourites.

France is just a bit dull and that leaves the UK who weirdly might do well if enough people find him "cute" and not an overweight eyesore. He certainly sings the crap out of it and with all the shit this year we might actually finish higher by default.
