I like Demy, it's uptempo and catchy. Also, I am sucker for eurodance.

eurotrash 

Portugal is beautiful, both the song and the presentation. I hope it does well. 

I don't realise all the hate surrounding Australia. Yes, we have a lot of ballads, but this one is the best so far. The boy can sing, so with a great staging it's another top 5, top 10 at least.

P.S. I am still waiting for Sia or Lorde 

Lorde is from new sealand...

Sorry, I wasn't clear; Sia for Australia and Lorde for my country since her mother is Croatian. Not gonna happen, but I can dream

Australia is so bad, I don't think it will qualify

Here's the Czech entry - My Turn! (Yes it's another ballad...)

It's This Is Love for Greece!

Like you can guess, I'm really disappointed in Demy her song. There was a lot of hype with Demy and she didn't live up to it. Her previous work was great, she is beautiful and her voice is probably good too. How on earth did they create this. Even songs from 2010 sound less dated than this. I know Greece doesn't have a big budget, but I'm sure they could create something better. Yeah, it's a uptempo europop song and Eurovision is a weak year so far, so people will like it, but in every other year we would dislike it, I'm sure about that. Let's hope they revamp it a little bit more and bring the song to at least 2015. The staging is something to look forward to tho.

Australia has presented their entry. It's "Don't Come Easy" by Isaiah

Still waiting for Kylie Minogue  

My first reaction to the singer was: oh, I expected something else. Then the song started, surprise, a ballad. Before I started to meltdown, the song touched me. And when the song ended I knew Australia did it again. They are sending quality again. I really love his voice and the song. I think it is one of the strongest ballads this year. The production is fresh, not dated, thank god. It reminds me to Sound Of Silence, a ballad with a electronic/2017 touch. I really think he will totally blow Eurovision away with his voice, like Dami did. This song will be even better live. I think this could be in the top 5 again, not because it's Australia, but because Australia knows what a good Eurovision package is.

I already knew this was a ballad so I wasn't surprised this time.  In a year full of ballads this song won't make a chance. If this year was full of bombastic pop songs, this would stand out, but that's not the case. It's a nice little song, but I've to be honest, it's boring. I Stand was such a good song, so this is a step back for Czech Republic. I'm sorry.

My dear neighbors, you know how to slay at Eurovision. Belgium is delivering great songs for Eurovision the past few years. This song will fight for the trophy in May. We can add this song to France and Italy, the two favorites. I didn't expect such a good song. This is Birdy mixed with Lorde. I love the sound of her voice. The song is dark, haunting and just so goooood! Brussels/Antwerp 2018? Who knows. Thank you Belgium.

Then you "forget" to vote for them this year 

but my vote could go to Finland this year so maybe I should stay away from jokes like that

Jokes aside, Belgium is amazing! With a great performance they could easily be in the top fight.

But I do like their song. But I'll probably forget to vote this year, because I've no big favorite so far. Only if Mariette will win, I'll vote fore Sweden. 

Lmao, Finland is always the ugly sis of the nordic countries when it comes to Eurovision. So I hope they will do well this year. She is in my top 5 too.

Shook at my country not this indie pop bop love it

Although this could either flop completly or become a great top 5

Perched for the staging

I have the feeling that will be a big point for all ballads in the race. We have so much already that it will probably come down to production and quality (at least I hope, Eurovision is unpredictable sometimes). And it's true, Australia has one of the best ballads so far!

As for Belgium: I really like it! Definitely one of the songs that slay!

Australia sounds like trash to me  why does everyone love it  If it ends up winning
