I will shock you all by saying United Kingdom are 2nd favourites with France as 1st favourites. Sweden has also brought forward a possible winner. This year it is more open than previous years where you knew who the winner was going to be

Please enjoy them and feel free to give your opinion on any you may have listened to.

As much as I think Eurovision is cheesy, I can't help watching it every year. Only thing which I can't stand is all the political voting.

Very true but this is why they changed the voting system 2 or 3 years ago.

Semi-final voting for example, United kingdom can't vote in the 2nd semi final, why? Because Ireland is in it.

As for the final, all the votes used to be by televote only but since they brought in the new voting system (50% televote, 50% Judges) this has made a massive difference, hence the previous 3 or 4 winning countries (They deserved to win because of the performance and song, which is the whole point).

Blue's song is actually pretty good. Hope it does well

As I can't vote for UK, I have voted for Georgia.

Would be very surprised if Jedward get out of the bottom 3
