such diversity in terms of songwriting, genre, language, vocality, artistry and performance. This is why it is the world best singer(s)/songwriter(s) competition. My favourites become clearer from when the cd is released but then the performance factor and artistry in Eurovision week ...change that opinion. It is such an open race..... and then the split of public voting and jury from every nation ...equally add a new change of dimension to who is their favourite. fascinating stuff.
I have just compiled a top 37 (borrrring Friday night in by myself) and have actually decided Austria is my dead favourite. Not sure whether Conchita will do too well but I am very much hoping for a successful result if not a victory. This image is something that isn't particularly familiar with many Europeans so it could go either way. But then again look at Israel with Dana!

With that in mind, rather than going for just a specific country, I am very much behind Spain, Moldova and Norway and of course my native UK which is a little bit further down the list but patriotism prevails!:D
I don't care if people say that Carl Espen doesn't have the "right stage presence", I'm interested in the song not charisma or their "persona". Europe might not feel the same but that's how I feel.

Well said! Hes a gentle soul too I think that may come across in the performance on the nights he performs.
