  I'm really looking forward to this years final.
  
  I think there's a great line up of songs (for me - best there's been in a while)
  I'm liking
  Netherlands
  Malta
  Greece (so shoot me :D)
  Hungary
  Switzerland
  Austria
  
  It feels like there isn't a runaway winner this year (although Austria could rise like a phoenix :D ) - and that should make the results part a lot more interesting.
  
  For the first time in ages it feels like we have a credible entry (it's not a winner - but it should be in the mix - I'm guessing somewhere from 4 - 8 )
  
  Be back later to join the fun/excitement/anxiety/disappointment (delete as appropriate )

  I'll be voting for Malta, Switzerland and Montenegro. But I'll see who else stands out - I didn't intend to vote for Finland before Thursday's show, but they really impressed me, so voted for them.
  
  No party for me, since I'm still poorly, but I will have a drink or two, and livetweet the show for the benefit of all my unwilling followers.

  I'll be rooting for Ukraine, The UK, Holland, Poland, Sweden and Slovenia
  
  Wouldn't mind Denmark, Greece and Spain snatching top 10's either

  I really hope it will be an exciting night! Obviously rooting for Finland - it's so great when your country has an entry you can totally stand behind (for example last year it wasn't so for me), as I'm sure others here know too
  And as for who to vote for, like many I'll decide only during the show, depending on who makes an impression.

  Ah please no poll as the thread will be moving so quickly and the top chunk of screen will be taken up with a huge poll!:(

  Is quite a strong final imo. Only disappointments are that Israel and Portugal didn't make it.

  Definitely!
  
  As for my top 10, well this is what happens when you lose the Mei Strut, Tanja being amazing, Suzy Shake, Cristina Weave and Tijana's Wobble/Jiggle.

  Agree with not having a huge poll for this thread. More than happy to stick a separate "Who will win?" poll thread if anyone would like to create one, though.
