I re-ranked everyone after seeing the 1st rehersals and made this super easy chart so I can figure out if I’m any good at predicting Eurovision or not.
The chart is in alphabetical order as to be confusing as possible 🙂 Obviously some of this is my own bias for certain songs and acts but I tried to be realistic. Like how I hate Malta and Denmark but they’re probably very clearly qualifying. Or how I don’t get the Bulgaria hype but hype = high votes. And now I love Macedonia but I have to realistic about their qualifying chances.
