I thought the list needed a bit of glam rock, and I’d selflessly given away my first choice (more on that later).

I know you are all hiding, desperate not to cause a "Commentators Curse", so I will keep going. (Or maybe I'm the only one here....)

That is low for Bucks Fizz. Thought it would be Top 7 at least.

I'd slow down but I've voted for my favourite Ukrainian in Strickly, and I want to see if I've wasted 50p.

I twisted her arm to play (not the one she broke by the river, that would have been cruel). She rewarded me by picking my third choice.

I think this is the only Bosnian entry I've ever really liked. The rest of them range from dull to excruciating (yes Laka, I'm looking at you).

So here we are. Top 5:
(in no particular order, as they say. Well, its actually alphabetic.)

ABBA, Lisa.B, nick1990, steeleuro_wolf, thengp12
ABBA, Katrina, Manga, Mekado, Serebro

I haven’t penalized ABBA because a top 5 appearance on the list seems appropriate. And they haven’t won.

The only time ever our names will occupy the same space as ABBA.

I knew that'd happen! Woke up the next morning and thought you silly cow, you listen to Serebro tunes almost daily and didn't pick them? Had to correct that mistake! Thanks for all the votes.
