Before watching the results, this was the group of entries I thought could possibly win:  Mexico,  France,  Germany,  the Netherlands,  Austria,  Latvia,  Ukraine and  Japan. And my own entry around 20th maybe? But overall this appeared to be an extremely open edition so maybe that's not quite correct lol. And after watching the results:  My entry finally came 23rd with 31 points aka a little lower than what I wrote above ... Thanks for the following points: Latvia  ,  Cyprus and  Norway  ,  Armenia  and   . I'm left with mixed feelings about the results. Let me leave a few thoughts: Mexico indeed won. If it had a different running order it'd have been my #1 guess, but not as the opener. But looks like that didn't affect the outcome at all. Congrats to Gilberto - also it's been a while.   South Africa ending up 2nd came unexpected to me, however. I first expected it to be like 23rd again lol. Congrats to Joshua for this amazing result. The Netherlands: This song is a prime example of what I dislike Eurodance for (amazing female chorus and some male "rapper" who then destroys everything) so yeah that's why I absolutely dislike it. Since it's overall not a bad song, however, I guess top 5 is okay.  Indonesia: Oh wow! Now that's what I call a shocking result. Haven't really payed attention to the entry myself and find it overrated from what I remember. But well done!  Spain: That song was a mess imho. But well done here as well - although it's the worst result in a while lol.  Canada and Japan both had beautiful female ballads this edition that I'm happy got a top 10 respectively finished just outside. Ukraine: Oh, I thought this was a beautiful song and a probable top 5 entrant. Apparently I was wrong ...  Russia: I remember this to have been quite the fun song in the recap (?) that however didn't make my personal top 10. That was probably because of the weird pronunciation of "Stranger". It's slightly underrated imo.  Slovenia: There are quite a bunch of examples of similar songs scoring pretty well so there was no doubt for me this was coming at least top 15. However almost beating it wasn't on my card lol. Armenia: Sadly an expected last place and low score ... |

I didn't think this would win, but it had a commanding lead of around 40 points for most of the voting and also got 8 points from me so it's a great winner and we're going back to Mexico after a very long time. South Africa was a great one for me and my 12 points. Would be a very well-deserved winner but second place is great too. Didn't foresee Norway on the podium either. I didn't quite vote for it as I found the edition very strong and ran out of spots, but it's not a bad one. I thought The Netherlands would fight for the top place, though 4th place is very good, it was rather "struggling" mid-top 10 during the voting. I very much liked it as it was my 10. I liked this one a lot too (as my 7 points), but didn't think it would make the top 5 since people usually sleep on Indonesia. Another decent song I voted for (6 points). Good position. Germany got my 5 points and was the highest placed folk song on the 8th place. We've seen such do better before, but imo this was a very strong edition.  I enjoyed this one (4) and it did as well as I'd expect for such an entry.  Thought it would do better, but a cute song. (3)  Catchy and finally we voted for each other in two separate editions as one of the most notorious non-voters for each other  I liked it (2), but the audio quality killed it. I was close to voting for  and but they just fell out my top 10. Rather predictable still hoped for something better. I guess I'll have to retire folk from Retro. |
