Not necessarily. There is usually a large home nation influx of views, when they upload the videos. And BGs are amongst the least Eurovision invested people, if we are going south-east from Hungary. Today in the office, from around 20 young people, only one other person cared that we made the final It's no surprise that Serbia and Greece have big views. Crazy, wacky, entertaining entries always do well, because people are re-watching for the lolz. You won't get multiple replays for a hard ballad. But you will need only one showing to grab the casual watchers on Saturday.
I think the views are good. They are on the same level as , and , which are the ones we should be looking at. We won't be winning, that was clear, when the song was announced, but i still see a top 5 position. If we are looking at the odds, half the nations before us have a problem with one of the voting wings, while i think we would have a strong balanced showing on both sides. Juries will sink Finland (sadly), San Marino, maybe even Ukraine, while Lithuania, Portugal will struggle with the popular vote. Iceland is a mystery for me and can't wrap my finger how popular will it be with the audience. And Malta could flop too.
