Actually 12 th is pretty good. Sweden is the fave and they are 10th. At 11th is a lovely little ballad from Cyprus and then its our uptempo dance entry. We have no chance of winning but this hurts Sweden’s chances.
Its a great spot for us. We are going last in the first half of the show. They are really pushing our chances. Russia and Italy will be hard to beat where they were placed in the order. Can’t wait to see how we go.
Considering we had to be in the top half it’s not a bad spot, although it’s a shame we’re before Belgium. Hope we don’t get forgotten after the Lorde song!
