      With the semis behind us, we now have all the qualifiers for Saturday's grand final!

      Who's your favourite? Most entertaining stage show? Overall thoughts on this year's crop of songs?

      Which song do you think will win? And who (if any) will get the dreaded 0 points?

      Who got robbed in the semis? Which songs should have rather won their national qualifications?

      The contest is still more than a month away, but all songs have been released, so let's have a listen and a discussion!

      Eurovisionworld has links to all the songs (ordered by how likely the bookmakers consider it for them to win the contest). There's also a YouTube and a Spotify playlist of all the songs.

      So which songs are your favourites? Guilty pleasures? Overrated, underrated? Most fun? Most excited to see performed live? Predictions? Etc.

      Rather than post all of the countries entries as seperate posts in ~music, and give everyone Eurovision fatigue before the event has even kicked off, I have listed them below for your consumption.

      I won't write long paragraphs based around my opinon of the differing entries; suffice to say that one act stands out in a sea of mediocrity among the Nordic entries this year. I'll leave you to guess which one that might be...

      Sweden
      The Mamas – Move

      Denmark
      Ben & Tan – Yes

      Norway
      Ulrikke – Attention

      Finland
      Aksel Kankaanranta – Looking Back

      Iceland
      Daði & Gagnamagnið – Gagnamagnið (Think About Things)
