I haven't looked forward to the ESC like this in ages. A lot of the songs feel at least *somewhat* modern and that Justin Timberlake dares to be associated with it....that just weren't on the radar five years ago.

I think Australia will win. Russia second place. But the votes could go anywhere this year, really.

And Justin told Franz that he really liked his song. Cool!

Personal top 10:

12 - Ukraine

10 - Austria

8 - The Netherlands

7 - Australia

6 - France

5 - Armenia

4 - Lithuania

3 - Hungary

2 - Russia

1 - Latvia

 

Haven't heard Spain/Italy/Germany yet in full version, so can't judge on those. Planning to give 5 votes each to Austria, Australia, France and Ukraine

They'll be showing a film by Jonas Åkerlund about Swedish music sometime during the evening. Because we are the third largest music exporter after the US and UK, I suppose.
