I haven’t heard any of the other songs so if (relative) pop culture relevance makes a difference I think she’s got a good shot!

Variety has just predicted her for the win. Not saying that’s accurate, or that things won’t change closer to the ceremony, but I’d consider her a definite contender. 
 

The popularity of Hacks and The Pitt means they will always be a threat, not undeservedly so (I actually love the song from The Pitt). The Boys won last year but I don’t think their entry this time is anywhere near as good. So we will wait and see, but I would consider TDD as a frontrunner, though without any guarantee.

The song is still bad and was still a huge misstep in a great era. But I'll cheer for the win.

Saying this with a SL pfp? That’s bravery.

That's even worse. But it was her first full on pop song/video/visual in years at the time and have just been too lazy to change it.

Congratulations to The Dead Dance, it's a humorous disco synth pop piece.

I think it's a decent song but yes, a misstep. Promo doesn't matter if the song is just ok. Really wish she released GOE or VIY after Abracadabra esp. after gaining so much international momentum.
