Question to those playing. With odds would you rather I wait until the final and people have already voted before I do some?

I ask as I don’t want my odds affecting peoples votes for semi final and final.

Good question. Your odds wouldn't change my voting. Over to the others though for their thoughts.

I’ve also listened to the semi finalists songs all the way through this morning whilst doing post holiday chores (helped get me through haha).

Quite a few great songs I’ve never heard before. Not going to spoil much but the singer for Mexico (not sure who picked this) is nice and I’m going to check more of her stuff out.

Ok, so these odds are not a prediction of who will win, that usually changes drastically once we know the finalists. These are also not an indication of my voting. These are purely how likely I reckon each song is to make the finals.

They may change over the next week or so as it’s quite hard to call this one.

To make the final:

Austria - 2/5
Finland - 4/5
Australia - 1/1
South Korea - 2/1
Poland - 2/1
Sweden - 3/1
Norway - 3/1
San Marino - 4/1
England - 4/1
Nigeria - 4/1
Canada - 4/1
Scotland - 5/1
Mexico - 5/1
Montenegro - 6/1
Czechia - 6/1
Denmark - 7/1
Germany - 7/1
Netherlands - 8/1
Mali - 9/1
Barbados - 10/1
Japan - 12/1
Egypt - 15/1
Taiwan - 20/1
Turkey - 25/1


Highest placing auto-qualifier in the final results:

Italy - 1/1
Liechtenstein - 2/1
New Zealand - 3/1
Ireland - 5/1
Greece - 8/1
USA - 12/1


Winner to be a song in English:

Yes - 4/5
No - 4/1


Winning country to have won the contest before:

Yes - 2/1
No - 5/1

…interesting…my listening ears and those odds might not be in harmony at all…

It’s a hard one to call this time as there’s quite a few similar songs.

…there are some very similar ones that are hard to separate and place but interestingly…in my first listen I had a stand out favourite from all of the others…

Yeah, I had two songs which really stood out for me in the semi finalists.
