4. Norway (favourite, but hopefully only top 5!)
5. Azerbaijan
6. UK
7. Spain
8. Armenia
9. Germany (because he is hot!)
10. Croatia (because he is hot!)
(Hungarian man is hot as well!) (Like the Ukrainian, Romanian, Moldovian, FYR Macedonian song and Montengero songs as well!)

My prediction on the night....
If the winner is a 1st time winner, then it will be between Azerbaijan, Albania, and Iceland
If the winner has already won, then it will be between Greece, UK and Norway

So Norway won, no surprie there, as they were the favourites for most of the time.

This years ESC (2007)was amazing- and to top it off GREECE have qualified once again for the finals next year. May I remind you that Greece is the only country to have achieved this since the new format was introduced in 2004. (But now there is a new format, and so almost everybody starts in the semis)
But well done to Sarbel and his dancing beauties.
This year (2007) we came 7th one place ahead of Armenia, with one point more than them. Last year we came ninth, and I remember we were one place lower, with one point less than Armenia.

To the winners, Serbia; congratulations. And I am sure you might remember that in 2004 it was a fight between Greece, Ukraine and Serbia & Montenegro, and since then all three nations have been victorious! (That is if you count Serbia & Montenegro as Serbia, since the composer was in fact Serbian and not Montenegrin). So to BELGRADE 2008- bring it on!

This year (2007) Helsinki had shown Europe a truly magnificent Eurovision Song Contest, so well done to them, and as per norm, showed their country off well.

To the presenters Mikko and Janna- well done, but especially Mikko, he was highly fluent in English and French, and as stated by some of the spokespersons- good looking. To Janna she reminded me of ������¯������¿������½Masha������¯������¿������½- the lady host in 2005. It was almost like a sequel- The Return of the Shrieker.

Overall I was amazed with Ukraine and Russia final positioning. I predicted Belarus at least second- if not the winners, and would have thought Turkey would come third, but well done for achieving fourth- as in 2004. Bulgaria, were a shock- as I believed they would have come in the top 10, but not that high. So well done- after three years, Europe now loves your music!

The ones I thought would do a lot better were Spain- a good song that unfortunately failed. But congratulations to Albania for voting Spain 12 POINTS. Bosnia and Herzegovina were also a surprise- I wanted them to get fifth position- but they did not even achieve top 10. I think that the Greek style dancing and clothing, like last year, did it for me. And the other song I thought was worthy of top 10 was Latvia. It is unfortunate that they didn't qualify for next year, but they are still doing better then their neighbour Estonia- who has yet to qualify for the finals since the semis were introduced in 2004.

I hope next year is as exciting as this year, I predict Malta will return to the top five- just like in 2002, and 2005- I think it is a 3 yearly trend. (But now that I have heard their song- Vodka, I got a feeling that it won't even qualify from the semi finals. Shame, because Malta deserves to win)
However I want GREECE to win again, and Athens will stage the best ever contest in 2009!!!

Greek National Final 2008- 27th Feb 2008
This year there were three competitors just like last year:
Chryspa will sing A Chance to Love
Kostas Martakis will sing Always and Forever
Kalomoira will sing Secret Combination
Of these three I think Kostas should win because he is hot, sexy, tall, handsome, and because he is completely gorgeous. And of course his song is far better then the other two.
King Kostas Martakis to rule Eurovision 2008!- He would certainly get Top 5!
If he doesn't win, then Kalomoira is okay, but only as second best.
