That 2nd place finisher... What was the name? certainly had better chance to get my vote ;)

Well, all in all, those odds are somewhat a sham, especially the pre-contest ones. 

 

They literally just guess on the amount of views, comments and stuff and any new news bumps country up over another.

 

A song that's unreleased is literally first place in the odds and that is absolutely dumb. 

 

They also placed "When We're Old" in first, second, third etc. place during the rehearsals only for it to not even breach top 10 in the end. 

 

Those bookmakers have absolutely no idea what they're doing until every song is up and then they go by the amount of views and like/dislike ratios to do the rest.

No doubt. Just joking around (though I don't see The Roop getting anything from me)

I just hope this whole Eurovision thing will kickstart my career. On Tuesday we start pushing my next song, it's going to be entertaining, yet stressful :d

Manizha wins selections in :RUS with folk-traditional song! Little Big wasn't among other candidates after all. We also could see at this concert this year competitor from :MDA Natalia Gordienko and several artists from :RUS and :BLR who participated in past, including Polina Gagarina, Dima Bilan and Dmitry Koldun.

    • 13 matches in last 14 days in 3 differnet countries in 2 continents Tunisia, Thailand and China.   Played a match every day Since 19th September   12 wins 1 loss   New career´s high 55th in WTA, 2 weeks ago she was around 110+    
    • Those hurt, especially not one but two countries that have never missed a single contest likely missing out now     Where did everyone go?   Edit: I see Slovenia is in, that's fantastic news! Brazil though...   I think I'm going to ask if @brunamoura wants to come up with a song, despite really not having lots of time for it due to training and work. With some luck, she can listen the playlist on Spotify during training or something and get a bit of a sense of which songs she likes. If that's acceptable for people of course, I can perfectly imagine people wouldn't be too happy with that since we literally share a household and it might be seen as a conflict of interest (although anyway I always only tell her my favourite songs after I sent my votes).
    • Announcement:   I'm going to extend the deadline for countries submission to Monday 30th September at 23:58 BST, with the voting now not opening to the public until Wednesday 2nd October at 23:58 BST. I felt this was necessary to do due to the lack of nations + the lack of some of the major players and not due to me failing to come up with an entry (@Vektor) that I will be posting after this announcement. This will be the last deadline that is moved, with the only dates potentially moving being the final dates. 
    • looking at the  Junior WCH (U-20) results so far, seems like USA is gearing up. the target would be to challenge China in LA 2028 and snatch few gold medals here and there.   p.s: China is not participating in Junior WCH     I am wondering if we can see USA in good shape in Bahrain WCH too 
    • Is Trump becomes President is he really going to let in the likes of Iran if they qualify. Fifa could protest if he won’t but sort of cancelling it they don’t have much leeway. 
    • SLOVENIA  Magnifico - Hir aj kam hir aj go     Robert Pešut, better known as Magnifico is one of most established Slovenian singers. He started his solo career more than 30 years ago.   Few weeks ago, he celebrated this jubilee with special concert in front of more than 20.000 people on special site in Ljubljana. Maybe does not seem a lot, but here there were not many concerts played with that crowd.   He is known for his special type of humour in his music and lyrics. Around 20 years ago he sold album Export Import, from which most known song is "Hir aj kam hir aj go", which was received well in other countries, especially in Italy.   Just another fact, Magnifico wrote two Eurovision songs, Sestre - Samo Ljubezen (Only Love) in 2002 and also for Montenegrin performer Rambo Amadeus (Euro Neuro).   He tried himself to perform at Eurovision, but with his still very well known "Silvija", ended 5th in EMA 1998 (Slovenia National Final).   SONG LYRICS
