This song was all over the place in terms of its placement, and ended up right in the middle.

I'm not bragging but I liked this song more than any other on the playlist.

Thanks to all whom voted particularly Phill, I think any song by the goddess that is Marina would go down a storm at Eurovision. If you haven't heard her latest album 'Froot' I can't recommend it enough, she's got some fantastic songs on there.

This lovely song where most voters wrote "Pinga" instead of going through the horrid process of spelling their names middled throughout.

11th - Steven_P - 60 points
Deepika Padukone, Priyanka Chopra - Pinga

I'll now take a short break because I annoyingly have to do some stuff, will be back in about 10 minutes with the top 10!
I gave my 12 to Pinga. The points don't add up though,

Up now is a lovely song that isn't at all dated that I really enjoyed. Gradually declined down the rankings though, especially with today's votes.

Whoops, the totals are definitely right! I've probably made a mistake with the members behind the points, sorry about this. Yep, missed off your 12 and Drew's 7, they were at the end of the sheet so I must have cut them off.

This was around the bottom until today, when it shot up to the qualification places, and then fell down again.

Another song that was around the bottom, but gradually rose until it looked like a qualifier, but it unfortunately missed out near the end.

This also always looked like a qualifier. I personally adore anything Foxes ever makes and this is one of her best. Never troubled the top but got solid votes throughout.

Another top 10 I can be pleased about, still struggling to crack the top 5 but it will do.

Thanks for the votes and especially the 12, Kiev <3

This seemed to be a definite top three until today's votes, where it managed to lose out on the number of 12s. But at least Queen Greta qualified for something.

5th - phill363 - 89 points (13 voters, two 12s)
Greta Salome - Row

12 - Lisa.B, nunaney

Just missing out on the top three is a song that was looking likely to finish around the middle until today, where it shockingly rose all the way up to 4th. No complaints from me!

In the end, it came to three entries all battling it out for the win. Just missing out was this power collaboration, which received the highest number of votes, but it wasn't enough to take the win.

Weedy in his covert Schlager diva operations again.

I thought Foxes and Greta were going to run away with this!
