Eurovision preferences and predictions
May. 9th, 2022 03:12 pmIt's the most wonderful week of the year: one week of glitter, dubious lyrics, glass cages of emotion, and oh so many wind machines. That's right, it's Eurovision week, with the semifinals on Tuesday and Thursday, and the main event on Saturday night.
Matthias and I always watch all the songs in advance, so I already have a couple of clear favourites.
The song which, objectively, I love the most and want to win, is the French entry.
Almost every year, I am delighted and charmed by Moldova, who bring exactly the kind of chaotic energy I expect to see in Eurovision. I will be voting for them if they're in the semifinal that I can vote for.
However, I'm pretty sure that, for obvious reasons, Ukraine has this year's trophy in the bag.
I can't really complain about this, although I don't really like their song, and would have been much happier if the Ukrainian song last year had been the destined-to-win entry this year. (Let's be real, it should have won last year.)
Thoughts? Does anyone else have strong favourites already?
