Latvias entry = rock song in Latvian. The guy doesn't blink, just shouts. Bloody awful. Someone compared it to Laka from Bosnia last year. Laka was at least entertaining and catchy.

Croatias entry = male Croatian ballad. Its a yawn fest.

Spain and Portugal are being decided as I type.

Norway is leading the online betting in the UK - 5/2 odds. Good taste!
Greece, Russia, Turkey and Malta follow.

We are getting down to the final countries/songs being decided, and I think its almost safe to say that Norway is the best this year. Obviously Azerbaijan, Russia and Ukraine could produce something brilliant in the actual show and change my thoughts, but Norway will be the one to beat.

I don't agree with the odds on Iceland - 40/1 (and 100/1 on another website). I think thats an amazing outside bet. Finland is 66/1.
Even Cyprus is getting closer odds and it sucks.
