It's time to compare our prediction with the actual result. Why do you think it's impossible to predict? Last year we predicted 2 positions correct. What about this year?
I think swedens song was good, but on the other hand it actually is a totally normal Pop-song like I hear it every day in Radio. I was really shocked how high it got because, as I sad, I think it's a totally normal and very replaceable.
The ending's the best xD If you'd ask me, why many AQ's do so bad lately, then I would say that they are seen only for the first time (for most of the europeans), while others have many fans already from semifinals...
***** Think that's the reason, yeah. And the solution would be so easy: AQs perform their song once in semifinal as interval act. But no one thinks about it. And so we will see next year some nice songs at the bottom again :/
I sometimes think that after the semi finals are done the public forget about the AQ's as they do not perform in either semi final so many people may already have their favourite before the finals. I think this is why many of the AQ's are in the bottom 10. Austin was my favourite and should've done better. Great video :)
The thing with YT is that most people who have time and most people living in certain countries, are in western & northern Europe. The prediction is one based on people from Germany, Sweden & the Netherlands.
+Marijn Cornelis Meyer Most voters were from Spain (76), United Kingdom (34), Germany (32) and Greece (29). I tried not to take too many from the same countries. And the voters are from all over the world. Even from some really unexpected countries if you ask me.
+Marijn Cornelis Meyer also, some of the songs sounded good on YT but the performances killed them and vice versa (e.g. I think UK was better on YT and on the contrary, I prefer the live version of Belgium...)
+kika12peggy17 Yeah, Iceland is the big one that got killed by a horrible live performance, and Latvia was the one that exceeded expectations with a live performance that blew the YT version out of the water.
Hmm, I guess RU-vid had a better opinion than ESC. Still a pity that CZ didn't qualify and Slovenia got pretty low. Those juries tho... And Estonia 7th place, really? It was really beautiful song. Anyways, it was obvious these countries won't get a good result, because of politics... The only one I was shocked was Belgium, but yeah good song, but maybe deserved a worse place. :P
Honestly, 2015 is my favourite eurovision year, I liked almost all the songs Top 10: 1. Estonia 2.Belgium 3.Israel 4.Montenegro 5.Slovenia 6.Australia 7.Romania 8.Norway 9.Serbia 10.Latvia
Thanks for this video :) Actually, the ones that failed hard in the ESC compared to the prediction really deserved to fail :D I never understood why the RU-vid users liked Switzerland, Iceland, the Netherlands, Ireland, Malta, Spain and Albania so much :D I'm only sad about the Czech Republic, they were destroyed by the juries -.- And on the other side, it was so so obvious imo that Poland, Hungary, Greece, Lithuania, Armenia, Montenegro and Serbia would be in the final (and do well there). They had good songs! ...maybe except Armenia. The only positions that surprised me were Azerbaijan, Israel and Belgium. Azerbaijan usually gets top 5 postions when no-one on RU-vid likes their song. Now their song was liked a lot, but they only get th 12th place. Israel surprised me because I didn't expect them to do that well after Moran Mazor and Mei Finegold failed. And about Belgium I thought that it's just a big fanwank on RU-vid, but it did even better in the actual ESC although his vocals were not the best live. I still quite cannot understand why he is 4th :D
I expected Montenegro, Hungary and Cyprus to all do far better than they ended up doing, and though I liked the Russian song I predicted that the political situation would artificially bring it down a few places, so was pleasantly surprised to see it make second place. My personal favourite was Romania, though I knew it wouldn't get into the top five. Belgium did about as well as I expected and is probably the only one that did. Your little "how are you going to Sweden" joke at the end cracked me up.
My top 40 40) SanMarino 39) Finland 38) Iceland 37) Denmark 36) Portugal 35) Netherlands 34) Switzerland 33) Moldova 32) Macedonia 31) Cyprus 30) Poland 29) Czech Republic 28) Ireland 27) UK 26) France 25) Hunagary 24) Moldova 23) Lithuania 22) Malta 21) Belarus 20) Armenia 19) Montenegro 18) Greece 17) Serbia 16) Azerbajian 15) Spain 14) Austria 13) Germany 12) Slovenia 11) Albania 10) Israel 9) Georgia 8) Norway 7) Australia 6) Latvia 5) Italy 4) Belgium 3) Russia 2) Estonia 1) Sweden
YT are never right. Probably because they vote for their own country. For example you always see Spanish people praising their own song, when the rest of Europe seem to not care for it.. Wasn't aware that Spain are that invested in the Eurovision...
Switzerland - why last place? tgis was good San Marino - not my type Finland - Aha :D Iceland - Ok Portugal - not my tyoe Macedonia - I think this deserved better Netherlands - not my type Denmark - not my type Czech - not my type Ireland - not my type Belarus - Rly like it :) Moldova - idk why but I like it Malta - too Germany - sorry but awful Austria - well, not my type France -... United Kingdom -... Poland - not my type Cyprus - not my type Spain - Love it :3 Hungary - not my type but good Greece - not my type Lithuania - not my type but happy Albania - stop this Armenia - nope Romania - better Slovenia - was ok Montenegro - not my type Azerbaijan - is ok Georgia - nice :) Serbia - Should have won :3 Israel - idk but like it Norway - not my type Estonia - not my type Latvia - ohhh pls doooon't Australia - not my type Belgium - my poor eyes Italy - Would also be a good winner Russia - Like I said Sweden - Love it :3
