woah. Just heard the full Azerbaijani song. Its a serious contender. Thinking top 3 (although I believe that Norway is still best).
Updated scoring from me (my personal preferences after 2 full days of listening to songs over and over)...
Points -
12 - Norway
10 - Iceland
8 - Azerbaijan
7 - Finland
6 - Germany
5 - Switzerland
4 - Greece
3 - Moldova
2 - Malta
1 - Turkey
Greece and Turkey (and even Ireland) are starting to wear thin with me. But Germany, Moldova and Switzerland are growing on me. Even the Albanian entry is becoming a fave of mine but I have serious doubts that the girl can give a good live act.
Personally I think we are looking at the following top 5 in the final -
Norway
Azerbaijan
Finland
Greece
Iceland
I think we will also see Turkey and Malta up near the top somewhere. And I think we'll see all of the Big 4 (uk, germany, spain and france) not at the bottom for once, which is where they have been the past 5 years (they will be more like mid range in 2009 - huge improvement).
I still think I need to see the Swedish, Russian and Ukrainian final entries before making a definative list though. Russia and the Ukraine are deciding this weekend, and Sweden is early next week.
After next week I think I might start placing bets on Norway and Azerbaijan (at least).
