The SD is really high on this one. 4 people lost a Top 10 while 3 lost a bottom 5. This song is going to win ESC this year unless something really surprising happens. Check out Grande Amore, it's one of my favorite ESC songs of all time. Next up someone loses his #1!

FINALLY!!!! Stupid overrated song. I don't find this a good song and a deserving winner. If an Italy entry deserved to win it was "Grande Amore". Amazing song and performance.

Leo will be pleased! Honestly, it's a song that has grown on me a bit recently, due to its catchiness.

Well, this is my favorite song this year. I don't care about the dumb lyrics, I just find it really catchy and fun. It was actually #3 after the first 5 submissions but then it started to fall :( 5 people lose a Top 10!

With quirkyfarang losing his #43, no #43's are still in. I do agree that this is a let down from Sweden compared to their standards at the ESC. Check out Euphoria & Heroes! Both are great songs and winners.

So that's it for today :) Tomorrow I'll reveal the #15-11 and then we'll have the Top 10.
Which 5 songs do you predict to miss the Top 10?

Wow I lost some of my favorites :(
"Occidentali's Karma", "Hey Mama" & "I Can't Go On" are all gold, they did well I guess. "Lights And Shadows" is cute too.

I totally thought Italy would be one of the first out. I'm surprised at how far it went in this. Sad I lost two of my Top 10s in this set w/ Nathan and OG3NE going out.

I really dislike "Verona" but "Time" is catchy and also the only rock song of this version of the contest so it may get some extra points for that. He's pretty horrible live though.
Edit: Okay "horrible" is a bit harsh so he's just kinda bad.

I should've ranked it higher, it grew on me since I did the rankings.
+1. I would do the same - 15th seems fair though. A pleasant song, but wouldn't say it's one of the very best of this year's patch. As for "Time", it's great to have a proper rock song amongst the songs, and glad it had a reasonably high ranking. Honestly better than I expected. I really enjoyed last year's 1944 too - Ukraine has so much great music.

Given what happened for Poland's song last year in the televote, Kasia could do quite well in the final - especially since her song is a LOT better than 'Color Of Your Life' and should hopefully fare a lot better with the juries.
