Based on what i have read (that people have said), it´s an easy final qualifier.

Will watch it after all the entrants have been revealed from all the countries.

Ah all I have seen on Twitter and ESCUnited that I'm a member of is absolute disdain for the entry, it is bad. I don't think it will make the final at all, I think the jury will eat it alive.

Yeah, but to be fair plenty of horrible and bad songs have got through in the past in the expense of good ones.

Is this a joke?

Is there any particular reason behind the way Armenia are forming their representative?

it sort of seems like a good idea but at the same time it sounds like an extremely bad publicity stunt that will just be ****

[Black Dagger]

Political stance and fits the slogan of 'building bridges' but they have been slow revealing each artist that I got bored and I doubt their song will meet my demands I have set for them.

[Black Dagger]

Tonight has been a disaster in general, bar Slovenia. Melfest continues to be a mess, Hungary have sent a dullard and then don't get me started on Moldova or that hideous noise from Finland ~begrudgingly updates the thread~

Is it just me that thinks there is no stand outs so far this year?

Estonia, I guess.

[Black Dagger]

It's very weak yes, a couple of good songs that are worth listening to a few times like Latvia and Estonia, but it's not a special year. Still got 18 songs to come in though, so hopefully a few will.

Im hoping the UK pulls it out the bag as with the poor competition it could get top 10

heres hoping

[Braden]

I think Australia is destined to do extremely well, regardless of whether they send a **** act/song.

[Black Dagger]

With any luck it will be Dami <3. (Revealed at 10pm on Thursday btw, not sure if I mentioned it on the last page)

[Shaun]

Current top ten:

1) Iceland
2) Netherlands
3) Moldova
4) Georgia
5) Lithuania
6) Latvia
7) Estonia
8) Denmark
9) Serbia
10) Italy

zero time for those dull Irish, Albanian, French, Swiss, Hungarian and Maltese women.

I do sort-of like the Slovenian one. And the Cypriot entry.

The less said about Finland the better. And Macedonia & Belarus are wank too.

Was hoping Kat would be representing us

Entries i like -

Maldova - Simply made me want to dance from the first 10 seconds. I think it's absolutely hilarious. It reminds me of Liberty X for some reason? Eduaud looks like someone straight out of the 90's - wtf is that hair about. Im excited to see how this is performed, i can see it making the final, easy. (if it's not sung crap on the night) Favourite lyrics - The future that you’re painting, Got me all anticipating, go!

The Netherlands - I'm loving the 'Why? why-ai-ai-ai' part of this song, it's extremely catchy and it's a perfect song for Eurovision. I can just imagine it getting stuck in everyones heads - whether they like it or not. Favourite lyrics - Why? why-ai-ai-ai (this is not a little crush)

Georgia - I love Nina's look first and foremost, she reminds me of Amy Lee from Evanescence. The song is alright, i didn't love it straight away be but it's beginning to grow on me. Favourite lyrics - Oooh oooh, I'm a warrior, still stuck in my mind.

Serbia - The performance was fabulous and i didn't expect the costume change, i liked how they used her as a projector too. Favourite part of the song (as i have not the foggiest clue what she is saying) - Her outfit going from white to red and the song development from there! Also when she hit those high notes, she can sing!

Ireland - The best ballad of the year so far for me, i think Molly is adorable. Favourite lyrics - Oh, while I played with white lies and fiction. Unbeknownst to you, I played the victim. Well that was the last time I pierce you

Latvia - I love how Aminata sings and i think she's absolutely stunning. Love Injected is probably my favourite Eurovision song of this year so far. I think with the right performance and right slot it could win. Favourite lyrics - Show me the source of the light, I’m becoming affected. Seeing the glow of the way, is what I have detected. Seeing it then in my life, It’s so shiny reflective. Love injected, love injected. (don't even know if it makes sense but i love it

[Black Dagger]

Top 5 for me so far are

Latvia
Estonia
Lithuania
Ireland
Serbia

But I still anticipate Germany, Austria, Sweden and Norway hopefully doing the right thing and picking the entries I fell in love with.

[Denver]

I only like

Latvia
Moldova
Estonia

Ireland is ok but that was the best out of a bad bunch and actually the first time in like 5 years i dont love the Irish song

[Black Dagger]

Moldova is catchy, but hideous live. No chance he makes the final unless he has a major miracle

Getting his haircut?

[Black Dagger]

Learning to sing would be a start.

Youtube video

i actually love this (excuse the electro violin woman that looks like she's having a fit)
slovenia is always so underrated
this contest, in terms of entries looks like a very different one to the ones we've had in the past and im really excited to see what the show has in store

Guy Freeman has said this about this years UK entry...

Last autumn, we opened the sparkling Eurovision door to anyone who wished to submit a song and performer for consideration as our UK entry for the 2015 Contest. The result of that open submission process was a very impressive collection of songs, of every conceivable type, that came in from a huge variety of amateur and professional writers and performers. Thank you to everyone who made the effort and got involved.

Some of the submitted songs were easily good enough to be commercial tracks straight away and others had clear potential, so it wasn't hard to draw up an initial shortlist of interesting contenders. What we did next, was consider the strengths and weaknesses of each song in detail, with the realities of the Contest foremost in mind. We also gave the shortlisted writers an opportunity to come back with any further suggestions or refinements which they thought would really maximise the impact of their songs.

Ultimately, one song stood out as having both instant impact and real memory staying power. Everyone is now working hard to get it ready for the evening of Saturday 7th March, straight after The Voice, which is when our UK entry for the 2015 Eurovision Song Contest will be revealed on the BBC Red Button service, bbc.co.uk/eurovision and Eurovision.tv.
