ranking latvian final was like choosing how one would prefer to to die. My ranking is below: Markus Riva (quietly in one's sleep) MNTHA (drowning) Aminata (buried alive) ElektroFolk (being tortured by Merjan)
Supernova 2015 - Final None of these will even be close to my top 10, what a bad bunch of songs MNTHA - Nefelibata Aminata - Love Injected ElectroFolk - Sundance Markus Riva - Take Me Down A Dal 2015 - Final Not bad, Hungary, not bad at all. I'll be very happy if my top 2 are picked. Just don't pick Passed or Bálint... Please. Spoon - Keep Marching On Ádám Szabó - Give me your love Kati Wolf - Ne engedj el! Ív - Fire Boggie - Wars For Nothing Zoltán Mujahid - Beside you Bálint Gájer - That's How It Goes Passed - Mesmerize
Supernova 2015 Markus Riva - Take Me Down Aminata - Love Injected ElektroFolk - Sundance MNTHA - Nefelibata Recap in title, full songs in top. Judging on the semi final results, it'll be either Aminata or MNTHA. Neither are good. A Dal 2015 Kati Wolf - Ne engedj el! Boggie - Wars for nothing Ádám Szabó - Give me your love Zoltán Mujahid - Beside you Ív - Fire Spoon - Keep marching on Passed - Mesmerize Bálint Gájer - That's how it goes Recap in the title, full songs in the top. Shame on Hungary that they let Spoon through instead of Vera/NLE, and Bálint instead of Other Planet. It'll probably be Boggie vs Adam (they both got a 9 from the public in the semi and the highest jury score)
Time for and there's some there I like the sound of. (especially Tim & Jana) Let's hope they can bring something new to the table! EMA 2015 Snippets 1. Tim Kores - Once Too Many Times 2. Jana Šušteršič - Glas Srca 3. Maraaya - Here For You 4. Martina Marjerle - Alive 5. Rudi Bučar & Figoni - Šaltinka 6. I.C.E. Vse mogoče 7. Clemens - Mava to 8. Alya & Neno Belan - Misunderstandings
Sometimes one is more than enough. As for Slovenia, I.C.E., Clemens and Maraaya seem the best to my ears. Neno's song is disappointing when you compare it to the wonderful song Wiggles sent.

My #1 to #5 can be good when the full songs are released, but #2 to #5 might be boring/go nowhere as a full song.

Eurosong 2015 - A MAD Show Maria-Elena Kyriakou - One Last Breath Thomai Apergi & Legend - Jazz & Sirtaki Barrice - Ela Shaya - Sunshine C:REAL - Crash And Burn A decent selection. Won't win them anything, but will get them to qualify. I like Maria-Elena's best, but I'm not sure that one will get them the best result. That's probably Shaya. I can see them sending anyone, except Thomai. (Now watch her win, me and my predictions). Also, how random does Barrice's song get after two minutes?
MAD 2015 1. Thomai Apergi & Legend - Jazz & Sirtaki 2. Shaya Hansen - Sunshine 3. Maria-Elena Kyriakou - One Last Breath 4. C:REAL - Crash And Burn 5. Barrice - Ela Very disappointing selection from the Greeks - honestly, they'll most likely qualify but none of these songs are worthy. Jazz & Sirtaki takes far too long to get going and they should have brought the final chorus to the middle of the song and have the beat throughout. Shaya is something we've seen plenty of times before but it's inoffensive and just bland. Maria-Elena has an alright voice but her enunciation is crap - song is pretty dull, too. C:REAL doesn't really hold my attention, it sounds like something that'd come 4th in a Belarus national final. And to finish up, Ela is horrendous. Terrible, irritating chorus with a very jarring last minute that goes back into said-shithorrid chorus.

Eurosong 2015 - A MAD Show Shaya - Sunshine Maria-Elena Kyriakou - One Last Breath Barrice - Ela C:REAL - Crash And Burn Thomai Apergi & Legend - Jazz & Sirtaki Shaya's song is okay, I guess. Maria-Elena's song is boring, but not too bad. Barrice's Ela is catchy, the beginning is quite okay, but the chorus is bad (I don't get the traditional greek music). C:REAL (see real or cereal?) is bland, nothing really good about it. Not a fan of Jazz and Sirtaki, not at all.
