The song I like the most was 35th, the song I like the least was 6th

Peru On this day, ten years ago, one of the greatest Peruvian voices died. Yma Sumac - Goomba Boomba

I will post the results by the end of the week. This one was unexpectedly busy. Don't worry, 2016 won't happen

As consistent as Kensington

Great record for Canada at Open editions!

I liked Rudens a lot back then

How come India forgot to introduce us with this jewel at TISC @Dolby

Switzerland This is one of my all-time favourite songs! Absolute masterpiece. Grauzone - Eisbär

Australia and Japan taken Peru and Switzerland for me then. Will save some African entries for next year

Dez is going to wake up before 5 AM Eurocentric schedule

Voted! It was difficult to arrange the 3-2-1 points and first alternate. One song I absolutely love. Probably ending around 30th place Overall - last year's Open had better quality.

Final Standing available here Wanderer FC Mezhgorye ady48 This was very close, but I am very happy with my 3-2 final pick! Finally medal for Russia this year, and first ever medal for @FC Mezhgorye who was leading at some point but eventually kept his position in top 3 and wins silver medal. Congratulation What looked like unreal start for @ady48, still ended with a medal, bronze this time, adding second one this season. Congratulation! A bit unlucky end for @Dunadan who was always there, but went short at the end. Great finish, though. Same can be told for @hckosice as well and rest of the top 10 gang. Thank you everyone who participated. Next one - Artistic Gymnastics Worlds!

Red group is more interesting. Bertens will fight, Stephens may bother to play well, Osaka and Kerber are unknown, but I hope Naomi will deliver.

Hopefully Petra will wake up and clean up this "field" Just to prepare for more important event, Fed Cup final.
