According to the bookies this year’s Eurovision Song Contest will be fought between either Germany or Azerbaijan.
Both have been leading the race and taking alternate turns at having the shortest odds.
The bookies were spot on with the winner in both 2008 and 2009.
With the contest now less than 2 weeks away and rehearsals underway at Telenor Arena in Oslo, it’s time to start getting familiar with some of this year’s contenders (more songs will follow later…).
Germany: Lena “Satellite”
Azerbaijan: Safura “Drip Drop”
Israel: Harel Skaat “Milim”
Denmark: Chanée & N’evergreen “In a Moment Like This”
Armenia: Eva Rivas “Apricot Stone”

One day this will cause a war in Europe 😉
Germany should win. Lena is probably the only contestant with wider mainstream appeal.
Really looking forward to this! I quite enjoy the music, so I’m weird.
If only we could place a bet on the bookies getting the top three places wrong! Safura is wooden live – and Israel’s is nice but dull. A couple of longer-odds worth considering: Turkey (one of the only bands in the contest); Romania (opera diva doing a techno-duet) and you can’t go past Albania’s tribute to Donna Summer.
Go Germany! ESC in Berlin 2011 (at least they can afford to host it)
Looking forward to this as usual, always seems to come around so quickly each year.
this is the first Eurovision in a number of years where there hasnt been a clear favourite going in, should make for exciting voting hopefully
