Iceland Greece Albania Romania Belgium Israel Cyprus Denmark Russia Moldova |
|
By:

|
|
By:
sorry squares...PERSONAL PREFERENCE m8.
|
|
By:

TBH my favs wouldn't be much different. Excpet Greece and Iceland would be missing. |

By:
Who I want to qualify:
1.Romania 2.Iceland 3.Ireland don't really care after hat point but 4.Hungary 5.Switzerland 6.Finland as I like these and 7.Greece 8.Moldova 9. Latvia 10.Israel Who I think will: 1.Romania 2.Iceland 3.Denmark 4.Russia 5.Greece 6.Moldova 7.Ireland 8.Cyprus 9.Hungary 10.one of Belgium/Finland/Switzerland can't call it until I see them on Tuesday |

By:
My Personal Preference list would be more of a "I dislike these 10 songs less than the rest" which does not corelate with the order of how I think it may pan out below (1-10)
1. Romania 2. Denmark 3. Greece 4. Iceland 5. Russia 6. Cyprus 7. Moldova 8. Albania 9. Ireland 10. Switzerland GL all ahead of the Semi's! |
|
By:
other than those that I have a financial interest in going through my greatest wishes would be that a)the Albanian abomination fails to make it through as I can't listen to it any more and b) Cyprus fails to qualify so I can say I told you so

Who cares about the girly personal preferences of others? This is a betting site.
Milan who do you THINK will qualify mate, and in order? That's what we're interested in. I think these will qualify: Romania Denmark Iceland Moldova Ireland Russia Cyprus Hungary Finland Albania |

By:
Bold shout with Cyprus Bex, but it has the potential to be the Poster Boy for ESC fanwank
![]() Despite ropey rehearsals/shaky vocal I think the fact it's up after the facebook song should make it look like a masterpiece! I just have a feeling that all these kitsch/ditzy/bubble gum songs will do well in this time of Euro-depression. I know that traditionally they don't have a great track record, but people want/need some fun! |

PMSL @ Henry!
Dead right mate! No mincin around and No Greece either! I like it![]() |
|
By:
I think Cyprus will qualify tbh I put it in my list, however I'd be tempted to lay it at the price. It will disappear without trace once Saturday results come around, I have no doubt whatsoever about that.
I take your point onboard but imo juries will kill it and when it comes to 'feelgood' factor songs then there are better ones |
|
By:
No Greece Henry? Very bold
|
|
By:
Bex, very true, I agree we all know there are better ones

Dead right mate! No mincin around and No Greece either! Shocked I like it Oops I missed Greece, sorry I'll have to redo it. (They better qualify, I've even backed them a little to do so. |
|
By:
It's all about Romania for me. For once I got on a steaming train before it left the platform (got 12/1 with bwin on the semi win, now generally 6s)
Romania Denmark Iceland Moldova Ireland Russia Cyprus Hungary Switerland Albania (I have to confess to being baffled for love for this one - it's awful, yet I'll not back or lay it and just leave it be due to the love for it elsewhere) |
|
By:
CORRECTION Who I think these will qualify:
Romania Denmark Greece Iceland Moldova Ireland Russia Cyprus Hungary Finland |
|
By:
No Greece Henry? Very bold
A typo, corrected now. Looks like the last 4 of us are very similar except for the last few countries (and I never take a position on what I consider the borderlines anyway). |
|
By:
You obviously forgot Greece like I originally did honestcl? Redo it properly

Christ, I've been rumbled - I knew it was a mistake to copy and paste Henry VIII's!
Switch Hungary for Greece on my list! |
|
By:
Ok I will have a crack at it
What I think will happen Romania Russia Iceland Greece Ireland Denmark Switzerland Cyprus Moldova Hungary |
|
By:
It's still very much 10 from 13 for me.
I do think Belgium will get in (remember Lithuania topped the jury vote in the semi last year) and I am beginning to think Hungary could edge out Switzerland. Romania Greece Ireland Russia Denmark Moldova Iceland Belgium Cyprus Hungary (or Swizerland) |

By:
I forgot about them.
They only just scraped thru from the pimp slot last year with a better song and better staging. On the flip side they have more European fans now. All things considered 1.35 looks on short side |
|
By:
Yes, I've got Ireland out and Belgium in. Again, I just don't see Ireland who barely scraped through last time making it with what by all accounts is a poorer version of their last rendition. But I wouldn't exclude that they make it...
The definite non-qualifiers for me are San Marino and Montenegro. I'd wager my house that they won't make it without losing any sleep. I'd also be really, really surprised if Austria or Latvia made it. Beyond that everyone still stands a chance in my read... |

By:
This time last year Jedmania was at fever pitch in Germany with the pair hardly seen without Lena hanging out of, or banging on about them. The same was true with the fanfare here in the red tops and media at this point last year.
This year I think there has been much less of a fuss over them. I don't think there will be a big contraction in their price like last year, so beware traders, however I do think that their management feel the job's done already with the fanbase they've garnered during and subsequent to ESC 2011. A strong televote should have them in the final and that's all they want - nothing greater expected... Just to get through and put another 12 months on their shelf life |
|
By:
^^ That said I certainly wouldn't be backing them at the price, with their main televote opposition in the same semi and an arguably weaker overall package in terms of song and production. I'll be leaving them alone
|
|
By:
Updated my prediction and filled in the final place based on the dress rehearsals:
1.Romania 2.Denmark 3.Russia 4.Iceland 5.Moldova 6.Greece 7.Ireland 8.Hungary 9.Cyprus 10.Belgium still no Albania |
|
By:
Well they're the same 10 as me now Bex...I'm thinking Hungary will edge the Swiss out now, but maybe both could make it in at the expense of Cyprus?
|
|
By:
I'm scared to get ny hopes up too much for Cyprus failing.
In all honesty though going from my voting strength info and where I see it with the juries I shouldn't have it in there |
|
By:
Switzerland disappointed me a little tbh thats probably why
|
|
By:
not their performance just the song isn't quite as good as a few bloggers had me believing
|
|
By:
I think it's a decent enough soft rock song but not as much appeal as something like New Tomorrow from last year that the juries loved.
|

By:
1.Moldova
2.Denmark 3.Russia 4.Romania 5.Greece 6.Cyprus 7.Albania 8.Israel 9.Ireland 10.Finland |

By:
Finland a contender for bottom 3 I reckon.
