Surely Kitty's song isn't eligible? There's a video of her performing it to a crowd of apathetic gays at Reading Pride 2012.

This means qualified
This means not qualified


Not horrible, but nothing jumps out. It's just okay.

Update: the are new songs and one song changed the singer (bit odd). I included the links of the new stuff.

I only like Take Me Down from the Latvian selection

Gosh so many places have been busy in my absence! Is it all shit?

more or less yes

No, Finland is actually good. Lithuania is decent for Lithuania. Estonia and Latvia are meh. Cyprus is crap though.

A decent selection and I love the fact that Elisabeth Andreassen is back once more to this time duet with a Golden Toilet from Eurovision. They're my #1, followed by dansband. Yep, cheap and all.

10. Raylee - Louder
11. Staysman & Lazz - En Godt Stekt Pizza

Decent national final. Very odd that there will be an orchestra this time, and there's just eleven songs in a final.

From the Norwegian snippets, the songs I think could be interesting are A Monster Like Me and Thunderstruck..but it could change when I hear the full songs.

go on pick 6 or 9 but it will be yet another english song

Söngvakeppni Sjónvarpsins 2015

1. Erna Hrönn - Myrkrið Hljótt
2. Stefanía Svavarsdóttir - Augnablik
3. María Ólafsdóttir - Lítil Skref
4. Regina Ósk - Aldrei Of Seint
5. CADEM - Fyrir Alla
6. Björn og félagar - Piltur Og Stúlka
7. Elín Sif Halldórsdóttir - Í Kvöld
8. Haukur Heiðar Hauksson - Milljón Augnablik

10. Sunday - Fjaðrir
11. Friðrik Dór - Í Síðasta Skipti
12. HINEMOA - Þú Leitar Líka Að Mér

That's a pretty good selection. The female ballads by Erna and Stefanía are by far my favourites, love those.

The songs from Iceland are nice, in general, but I couldn't find any song that really stood out. The 3 I find slightly better are from Ema, CADEM and ELin Sif Halldorsdottir (what a surname!)

Green = qualifier
Black = non-qualifier
Blue = wildcard

Oh this NF is quite good actually, no horrible songs.
Here's a recap

Eurovision Song Project Final

1. Panagiotis Koufogiannis - Without Your Love
2. Charis Savva & Nearchos Evangelou - Deila Den Agapo
3. Hovig - Stone In A River
4. Giannis Karagiannis - One Thing I Should Have Done
5. Minus One - Shine
6. Doody - Magic

I'm just guessing the sound in the CyBC studio is horrible. No act sounds brilliant live, so let's hope that changes when any of the first five get to Vienna. The poo would be a nightmare.
