My list. Despite the standard mid-February jitters, I really like everything down to around number 32, so it's a strong year for me.

Is that game that allows you to pick your faves, or go by the latest odds, and then simulates scoring going yet this year? Although I'm not sure if it did last year, thinking about it.

No, it’s just the one that helps you to determine your own personal favourites through a series of vs votes.

Re-did my ranking. France hurtles up a few places despite me still actively hating it - really speaks for the quality of the songs it beats.

The crowd over at popjustice who normally go "slay Tamta queen of Cyprus my wig flew etc" suddenly raving about this left field type of music- I just don't buy it. It must be a Eurovision conspiracy.
 
In terms of the song itself Mahmood (and to a lesser extent Conan) are streets ahead for me - the rest for is all firmly fun for Eurovision territory.

Can’t say I’m too bothered by that much outside my top 8 but we ALL know rehearsals can change that :disco:

This might be the first time I've ever had this happen - 9 of my top 10 are men...!
 
So happy the S!sters (WHO AREN’T EVEN SISTERS!) came last :disco:

LOL - you do realise you have 100% control of that right...?!? IF THE SONG YOU WANT TO BE LAST ISN'T LAST YOU'VE DONE IT WRONG...!?!?!!?
 
Where is @Suomi’s list please? I am incidentally very disappointed to have received no vicious death threats regarding my previous disparaging remarks about Norway :(

Although God knows there’s FAR worse on offer this year!
 
I wouldn't say that ENJOYING is exactly the word. It's just more acceptable than all the other rubbish below it :side-eye:
 
:D Well, we shall see. That's the ONLY one likely to trouble the varying degrees of spectacular section, and I'm quite happy to dump Conan. God knows how GREECE is #12. Mind you, see above. I obviously just hate it less than I do the other crud outside my top 10

but I am genuinely interested because ALL the favourites are men so I want to see how your ranking has panned out :disco:

Like I said, I've never come anywhere near having 9 of my top 10 men. It's definitely a strong field for men this year.
 
I really envy all of you who are able to do this ranking because in order to do this properly I'd actually have to listen to all the shit songs multiple times to know how to rank them which I can't be fucked with.

I hear ya

I've tried doing it a few times, and probably about half the tracks I either don't remember or simply don't care enough about to rate against anything else equally nondescript.

I'd end up with a top 10, a bottom 5 or so, and everything in between would be pretty much entirely arbitrary.

I don't know if it's some kind of autistic trait but I can do this with literally anything. I can rank my entire team at work, supermarkets, pairs of jeans or Game of Thrones characters without any difficulty at all. Same with these. I only need to hear a few seconds of a song to remind myself whether it's better or worse than another.
 
Turning out to be a pretty shitty year, normally I keep almost all the entries in my library, but I'm only looking at the top 20 at the moment :( Kind of surprising, so I hope there's some great perfs and staging to sell the shit out of the rest.

Especially confounding are the favourites this year - usually some of them are just ones I think are alright but don't particularly win. This year they range from indifference (Netherlands) to straight up not really liking (Italy, Iceland). Some of the bottom table might represent something good for the LGBTQ+etc community but the tunes just aren't there. I was really hoping to like France for example, but... meh! I mean Jesus, how is San Marino in my top 10? It's not like my Valentina bias is in play.
