i'm so sad for my country Portugal getting such a bad spot in the running order. I'm so proud of Mimicat, her song represents portuguese people so well, a true joy to listen
@@ERTChimpanzee i wasn't talking about Rachel's final score predictions, I was refering to the actual performance rinnung order, Portugal is the second act to perform. Tradiionally acts that perform in second in running order don't do well at all with the votes unfortunately (it's like a sort of 2nd place curse)
Oh, I hope so much that Blanca Paloma would win the jury vote. She is so unique, so authentic, so artsy, there's so much tradition incorporated in her performance, and vocally impeccable.
The gap between Loreen and whoever comes second in the jury vote is irrelevant for Käärijä. The relevant question is the gap between Loreen and Käärijä in the televote.
My personal top 10 (as a casual viewer who hasn't really watched since 1998). 1) Finland 2) Norway 3) Australia 4) Germany 5) Austria 6) Serbia 7) Czechia 8) Sweden 9) Israel 10) Croatia
thank you for this very thorough and insightful analysis. I am a tad depressed that Sweden will win because it feels so overhyped to me and wish something new and edgier like Finland would win. I am now emotionally prepared for Finland to not win.
Taking the big 5 aside (since I still haven’t seen the live performances), the songs I like the most are: 1. Switzerland (OMG that voice) 2. Czechia (captivating) 3. Austria (funny) 4. Estonia (powerful) 5. Slovenia (catchy) 6. Belgium (makes me want to dance) Thought, from the looks of it, not many people will agree with my personal taste. 😂😂😂
Few of my predictions: 1. Croatia are finishing around 5th to 8th 100% - they're literally this year's moldova - and they're getting points with the juries from the likes of serbia and slovenia etc. and you said 200+ points with the televote - that alone is enough to get around 12th place even if they get 0 with the juries! 2. the big flop of the year is spain for me - there's always one, and surely one of the songs in the first half will tank as a consequence of going around everyone else. This has MASSIVE jury potential, but barely any televote potential, and the song is literally CARRIED entirely by blanca bcos apart from her the song barely gets going and is very repetitive and stop-start, which to me isn't enough on its own to get a bucket load of points 3. watch out for germany - going 21st is SURELY going to get them some points with the public (and maybe a few juries as well - finland most notably). 4. sweden to win, and become the first winner in the post 2016 era to win bcos of their jury votes rather than their televotes
@@zsokapados5197 ok full disclosure i am a massive spain hater lol, and im really not trying to be biased but i just don't see how she gets points from the public, when if a song is not uptempo enough you simply will not get points. YES she will get points from the juries, and when I say flop i don't say 20th or something like that, i think around 12th or 13th - like i said above it is very repetitive (come on dont deny it) and doesn't really get going in a way that the televote will like, and then sweden going afterwards as well, a song with a bit of a beat to it. ofc there's that "this is different" factor, but i think it's different in a great way for the juries, but a bad way for the public, who will be swayed to voting for the finlands, croatias, germanys, australias, israels etc etc. running order doesn't help her but still
Italy was also fourth in jury vote 2021 and then they won. The jury is not going to give a massive low vote to one of the favorite songs they won't want any backlash and I heard that his vocals were actually quite improved in the jury vote show so I hope he gets rewarded there. I prefer to go with my heart and say Kaariya will just win. I am sad for Portugal she deserves a top 10 but the running order is not in her favour. I'd love to see Australia 11th as you say it would be a great result for them.
First time Ive watched your channel - interesting and valid predictions. Im a massive Kaarija fan and watched him perform in Liverpool both at the live semi final and the eurovillage. These are the reasons I can see him winning the contest: 1. He will definitely win the televote by a large majority. I saw first hand the reaction of the crowd in the arena. They went crazy for him! 2. Whilst I cant see him scoring highly with the Jurys I can see him getting more points than people think because each of the countries know how popular he is with their own relative country -peer pressure! Also the song is in a native language and is unique and most memorable. Whilst the vocals arent brilliant he more than makes up for those with his high energy/captivating performance. I also think that as there are many quality songs this year, the points awarded to Sweden will be diluted. 3. The combination of the above should mean this is really close and as Finland Televote score will come before Swedens (fewer Jury Votes) it all climaxes with Swedens Televote. I honestly see this being a two horse race despite there being a good batch of songs. Ukraine is a bit of an unknown hence the shortish betting odds but I think that although people still sympathise with the Country over the dreadful war they are less drawn politicly and I can see there votes reflecting this slight shift in feeling. I do however see them doing better than some of the polls as it is a good song in its own right. Good luck to all and I hope everyone has an exciting/thrilling evening ! David (Leeds/UK)
Great video and analysis 🙂 My personal top 10 (excluding NQ) 1. Sweden 2. Finland 3. Israel 4. Italy 5. Spain 6. Norway 7. Estonia 8. Belgium 9. Albania 10. France I wish I could put more in my top 10 😅
How was your ratio of PP/AFP in percentage terms (Positions Predicted / Actual Final Positions) last year? Nerdy comment to make some nerdy statistics the years to come ;-)
Juries are asked to focus their vote on 4 main sets of criteria: Vocal capacity of the artist(s) Performance on stage Composition and originality of the song Overall impression of the act
We're on similar wavelengths! Top 3 is almost the same, but i have Spain 4th with Ukraine 3rd. HAVE A GREAT EVE RACH AND EVERYONE HERE!! OMG, IT'S HERE 🎉🎉
My prediction (this is sooo difficult): Top 2: Sweden, Finland (random order) 3rd-10th: Israel, Norway, Croatia, Spain, Italy, Ukraine, France, Austria (random order) 11th-15th: Armenia, Portugal, Czechia, Australia, Slovenia (random order) 16th-20th: Cyprus, Lithuania, Belgium, Germany, Moldova (random order) 21st-26th: UK, Albania, Poland, Switzerland, Serbia, Estonia (random order) I'm not sure about Switzerland, I feel like they might surprise us and end up pretty high
My top 10 prediction: 1. 🇫🇮 Finland 2. 🇸🇪 Sweden 3. 🇸🇯 Norway 4. 🇮🇹 Italy 5. 🇫🇷 France 6. 🇮🇱 Israel 7. 🇪🇸 Spain 8. 🇺🇦 Ukraine 9. 🇧🇪 Belgium 10. 🇲🇩 Moldova
There is a war in Ukraine so Slavic brothers and sisters will support Czechia. Czechia will win and take their sister's crown back. Last year Ukraine won because of the war.
Good luck to (almost) everyone tonight, especially to Suomi. 🙂 I will not be watching the result. I'm expecting a depressing result = recycled Euphoria winning, and that heartbreak is not something I want to watch live. I will spend tomorrow reading books, and staying off internet.
Finland won't do that well in the juries and I think the televote will be closer than people think. Finland will the televote but not by the landslide people are thinking. I still Sweden has this in the bag.
Among my initial predictions are … Finland, Sweden, and Israel as the top three, Czechia in 7th, Spain 9th, Ukraine 15th, UK 19th, with the bottom three being Cyprus, Switzerland, and Portugal. But I won’t be making my final decisions until the interval, as usual 😀
Sería maravillosa esta clasificacion .Muchas gracias Rachel por el apoyo a España . Coincido contigo en que el problema para España será el televoto .. Un top 3 general sería muy satisfactorio .España quiere ganar Eurovisión y se está notando. Muchas gracias por el vídeo 👌👌.Mi top 3 es el mismo que el tuyo
How come jury would score Portugal so low? Vocal capacity - easily top 5 Performance - I dare to say top 1 but top 5 for sure Composition and originality- easily top 5 (haven’t seen anything quite like it at least) Overall impression by the act - here you can argue that its personal and some jury’s could rate lower based on preferences
Surely staging isn’t same as performance. I asked chat gpt for clarification on what makes a good performance. A good song performance is a combination of several elements, including the singer's vocal technique and expression, the musician's instrumentation and timing, and the overall stage presence. Here are some key factors that contribute to a great song performance: Vocal ability: A good singer should have a strong, clear voice that can carry the melody of the song with confidence and ease. They should also have good control over their vocal range, dynamics, and pitch. ✅ Emotional expression: A great performance is not just about hitting the right notes but also conveying the emotion and meaning of the lyrics. A good singer should be able to connect with the audience through their performance and bring the lyrics to life✅ Stage presence: A good performer should have a stage presence that commands attention and engages the audience. This includes their posture, movement, and facial expressions.✅ Musicality: A good performance requires coordination between the singer and musicians. The instrumentation should complement the vocals and add to the overall mood and emotion of the song.✅ Energy and enthusiasm: A good performance should be energetic and engaging. The singer should be enthusiastic and passionate about their performance, and this energy should be contagious and felt by the audience.✅ Timing and pacing: A good performance should have good pacing and timing. The tempo and rhythm should be consistent, and the performance should flow smoothly from beginning to end.✅ Originality: A great performance is not just about copying the original version of a song. The singer should bring their own unique style and interpretation to the song, making it their own and creating a memorable performance.✅ Overall, a good song performance is a balance between technical skill, emotional expression, and stage presence, all coming together to create a powerful and memorable experience for the audience.
I wished there was a way that songs weren't known before eurovision actually starts, but in this modern day and age that's just not possible. I just hate the bookmakers have been predicting the correct winner 10 times out of the last 15 contests (with odds recorded 1 month before the contest). Every time the bookies are correct I end up very disappointed, as it's literally never the song I like the most ;) You did hit the nail on Norway, they got points from all nations in televoting :D Spain's song had a really divisive nature as you predicted, but sadly most people muted their televsion because their ears couldn't handle it (like 3 of the 5 people I watched with begged me to put the tv volume down).
Your top 3 is my top 3, even though I'm not sure about Sweden's victory (I wish Sweden could win though)! Yeah, Israel will definitely be on top 5! Ukraine will have a great result, but I don't think they'll be on top 5. Top 10 will fit well. I believe the 5th place will be for France or Italy (even though I think Marco will be in the Top 10). Anyway, I'm so excited to see who's gonna win tonight 🎉🎉
I don't know: today: Estonia 12 pts Sweden 10 pts Austria 8 pts Finland 7 pts Czehia 6 pts Australia 5 pts France 4 pts Ukraine 3 pts Slovenia 2 pts Norway 1 pt
i thought there was an interval half way through (so between 13th and 14th). do you think that czechia might benefit from then starting the second half since there'll be more time since finland's performance?
If a rap song from Ukraine can do well with the Jury vote last year then Finland can do the same ; so it all hinges on the TV vote ; will Sweden do as well with the TV vote as expected ? I THINK NOT !
Spain is your largest discrepancy vs the actual results. The public probably really were unsure if they liked the genre or not, so they decided to just go for alternatives. :(
Something that many may overlook is that US votes this year and you have also Australia, which will favor English over Finnish, so if it's between those 2 Sweden has major advantage.
Yes but rest of the world points is like one country all together so they only give 12 points once. And the South American countries will probably vote Spain
FINLAND WILL WIN 1/ He has momentum and his rap song is more in the zeitgeist , while Swedens is just a rehash from 11 years ago 2/ Finland has the best running order coming after Loreen and after two ballods 3/Sweden will likely win the jury vote but she will not run away with it as there are other very good songs to compete against and share votes 4/ Sweden will do much poorer with the TV vote than most people expect ; you can just sense that's there's not much enthusiasm for a rehash of a 2012 winner 5/ Finland is both new and original, and dynamic ..it is in the zeitgeist ! 6/ Finland will have a much more decisive win in the TV vote than Sweden does in the Jury vote ..HERE LIES VICTORY ! I'm not sure Sweden will even manage to come second ; it could be third ! Frame this comment for posterity
It looks like that Norway wont be that high. It seems that yesterday (jury) show her vocals were weak and the whole performance was lucking energy. ps. Told you about La Zarra.

More or less agree but I can see Norway lower and Poland higher, and I don't know why i can't see Sweden as a clearly winning, maybe yes but non-eurofans aren't so crazy about her

Vocal capacity of the artist(s)

Surely staging isn’t same as performance. I asked chat gpt for clarification on what makes a good performance.
A good song performance is a combination of several elements, including the singer's vocal technique and expression, the musician's instrumentation and timing, and the overall stage presence. Here are some key factors that contribute to a great song performance:
Vocal ability: A good singer should have a strong, clear voice that can carry the melody of the song with confidence and ease. They should also have good control over their vocal range, dynamics, and pitch. ✅
Emotional expression: A great performance is not just about hitting the right notes but also conveying the emotion and meaning of the lyrics. A good singer should be able to connect with the audience through their performance and bring the lyrics to life✅
Stage presence: A good performer should have a stage presence that commands attention and engages the audience. This includes their posture, movement, and facial expressions.✅
Musicality: A good performance requires coordination between the singer and musicians. The instrumentation should complement the vocals and add to the overall mood and emotion of the song.✅
Energy and enthusiasm: A good performance should be energetic and engaging. The singer should be enthusiastic and passionate about their performance, and this energy should be contagious and felt by the audience.✅
Timing and pacing: A good performance should have good pacing and timing. The tempo and rhythm should be consistent, and the performance should flow smoothly from beginning to end.✅
Originality: A great performance is not just about copying the original version of a song. The singer should bring their own unique style and interpretation to the song, making it their own and creating a memorable performance.✅
Overall, a good song performance is a balance between technical skill, emotional expression, and stage presence, all coming together to create a powerful and memorable experience for the audience.

I wished there was a way that songs weren't known before eurovision actually starts, but in this modern day and age that's just not possible. I just hate the bookmakers have been predicting the correct winner 10 times out of the last 15 contests (with odds recorded 1 month before the contest). Every time the bookies are correct I end up very disappointed, as it's literally never the song I like the most ;)
You did hit the nail on Norway, they got points from all nations in televoting :D Spain's song had a really divisive nature as you predicted, but sadly most people muted their televsion because their ears couldn't handle it (like 3 of the 5 people I watched with begged me to put the tv volume down).

Yeah, Israel will definitely be on top 5!
Ukraine will have a great result, but I don't think they'll be on top 5. Top 10 will fit well.

i thought there was an interval half way through (so between 13th and 14th). do you think that czechia might benefit from then starting the second half since there'll be more time since finland's performance?
If a rap song from Ukraine can do well with the Jury vote last year then Finland can do the same ; so it all hinges on the TV vote ; will Sweden do as well with the TV vote as expected ? I THINK NOT !
Spain is your largest discrepancy vs the actual results. The public probably really were unsure if they liked the genre or not, so they decided to just go for alternatives. :(
I'm so angry about spain :(
1 Sweden
2 the rest of them
I think you are a bit off regarding 24-26, all these three have a huge diaspora and or friends
Something that many may overlook is that US votes this year and you have also Australia, which will favor English over Finnish, so if it's between those 2 Sweden has major advantage.
Yes but rest of the world points is like one country all together so they only give 12 points once. And the South American countries will probably vote Spain
FINLAND WILL WIN
1/ He has momentum and his rap song is more in the zeitgeist , while Swedens is just a rehash from 11 years ago
2/ Finland has the best running order coming after Loreen and after two ballods
3/Sweden will likely win the jury vote but she will not run away with it as there are other very good songs to compete against and share votes
4/ Sweden will do much poorer with the TV vote than most people expect ; you can just sense that's there's not much enthusiasm for a rehash of a 2012 winner
5/ Finland is both new and original, and dynamic ..it is in the zeitgeist !
6/ Finland will have a much more decisive win in the TV vote than Sweden does in the Jury vote ..HERE LIES VICTORY !
I'm not sure Sweden will even manage to come second ; it could be third !

My nerdly data analyst opinion: Belgium & Lithuania are bit overrated and Croatia & Moldova really underrated here.
How much do you use Time on Eurovision Song contest tubing 😊
It looks like that Norway wont be that high.
It seems that yesterday (jury) show her vocals were weak and the whole performance was lucking energy.
ps. Told you about La Zarra.
No, I think she'll do great and get a lot of televoting too!
@@marsukarhu9477 I haven't seen the performance, so it might be as you say, I was commenting what I've heard from people who were in the arena during the yesterday's jury rehearsal.

Well I guess you were right 🙃
Norway 1st and I'm happy :P
It's a good song
Top 10 for sure 😁
Maths, respect. Personally I prefer binary number system but decimal system is a good choice too.
Looks like Loreen has already won once in ESC => rooting for underdog Käärijä Cha Cha Cha.
Cha, cha, cha, cha, cha, cha, cha, ei
I really dont think Israel will score many points with the juri
This being a SONG contest, Slovenia should do way better than this given their song score of 9.00!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My guesses:
Winner- Norway🥇👸
Last- Germany 👨🎤
No way Bejba will be last. The meme itself is going to propel her to top 15
B E J B A for the win 🤞
More or less agree but I can see Norway lower and Poland higher, and I don't know why i can't see Sweden as a clearly winning, maybe yes but non-eurofans aren't so crazy about her
blanka deserves to come last but as much as it pains me to admit it, there are people out there who actually enjoy that song and will vote for it. bejba ain't coming last
I think croatia will get top 10, UK probs bottom 6, Ukraine winning, Sweden 2nd, Finland 3rd
There's no value in having a jury when a boring song wins just because it's performed by a good artist. Stop this jury nonsense!
Mark my words! Slavic brothers and sisters will support Czechia. Czechia will win and take their sister's crown back.
Putting Poland last...is just delusional. I'm sorry
I'm voting only for the countries that sing in their own language.
Swedish song is so an average Eurotrash song.x
You will be surprised Poland, oh you will be surprised....
