It's an odd Eurovision year. As nearly everyone has commented over the last 6 months, there aren't many belters. It really isn't 2011, or 2010. It's more of a 2007.
In short - there aren't loads of songs we love. But, equally, there aren't loads that we hate - it's quite a middling year. Which means that apart from 1 or 2 at the top of the tree, the middle of the field is quite open. And pretty pleasant.
So, one we'd made our peace with all that, we were pretty happy with the Top 10, and indeed the middle ground outsiders too - those songs that we liked enough to qualify from a semi-final, but didn't make the grade when we voted through the final line-up Top 27 songs.
So, without further ado - our Top 10. See below for other ways to enjoy it in a handy form (including with the full selection of outsiders) and also for the full tables of voting, so you can see that it was all above-board!
- 1 point goes to Italy
- 2 points go to Malta
- 3 points go to France
- 4 points go to Australia
- 5 points go to Moldova
- 6 points go to Belarus
- 7 points go to Serbia
- 8 points go to Iceland
- 10 points go to Sweden
- 12 points go to Norway
Here it is on YouTube, in ascending order from 1 Point to 12:
You an enjoy the experience in the full EUROfiasco Flag-Waving lounge way here on Vimeo. Just make sure you have a large bowl of crisps and a bottle of Prosecco in easy grasp!
And here's the table of votes. No, I don't know why it's this small either.
So on Monday we're off to Vienna! As ever, this blog will be silent until we're back but we hope to be comprehensively updating Twitter, Facebook and Instagram with news. Sounds good, sugar?
