If Stonewall was a country in the ESC...

Hello, this is hippiepunk from the planet Autonomia calling!

It was so hard to make a choice who to vote for. So before we start I want to make an honorable mention to Iceland and their classical utopian ballad „Our Choice“. It is a really good song, but the general quality this year is so high that it's just not good enough for the Top 10. Same goes for other good songs like Belgium, Finland, Ireland, Macedonia and the UK just to name a few.
The list of who I really expect to fail in the Semis is shorter:
  • Lithuania, because the song is just tooooooo boring.
  • Hungary, because Rock has it hard in the ESC anyways and... in hungarian?
  • Albania, because I can't even remember the melody.
  • San Marino, sadly. The song actually has its moments but... I guess they won't make it.

Now enough of pre-talking, let's get to the point and start with the points from 1 to 7:
1 = Denmark
2 = Estonia
3 = Bulgaria
4 = Slovenia
5 = Switzerland
6 = Australia
7 = Malta
and my 8 points go to the timeless and powerful canzone italiana per voi – Italy!

The ten points are awarded to the incredible Netta – who is nobody's toy but such a joy to listen to!
10 points for Israel.

And finally... my big twelve points... douze points... for the best song in this years songwriting contest... go to... the uplifting song written about how to write a song by the amazing and already eurovision-crowned songwriter Alexander Rybak!
12 points for Norway!

I am curious for more opinions! What do you think? What are your ten favourites? Who do you see dropping out in the Semis in a few days?

With all the best wishes to all our fleets #yourovision fans! Love and Peace!

***hippiepunk vote UPDATE after the First Semifinal***

Oh wow this was so much fun! And oooooh my I was so wrong in predicting who will not qualify! Albania AND Lithuania made it to the Final!
Well, had Albania performed their song like this from the start, I would definitely had remembered them from the beginning. This was way better than the video, I think their place in the final is well deserved.
And Lithuania...? I don't understand it. Croatia, Switzerland, Armenia out but... Lithunaia in? But, okay, it's part of the fun that Eurovision surprises you and I love that too... although I still don't get it. Do you? Can somebody explain this to me?

Also, having heard the live performances and since Switzerland was thrown out I am forced to change my votes for points 1-7:
1 - Albania (yes they performed from nonqualifier to my Top 10, that's what Live can do if you do it right)
2 - Denmark
3 - Slovenia
4 - Australia
5 - Bulgaria
6 - Malta
7 - Estonia

Peace, Love, Anarchy - hippiepunk out

Hello again! This is T'Lara from the desert planet Vulcan. As logic states, here are our votes for the Eurovision Song Contest 2018:

First of all we have to name three contestants we would like to mention, as their performance is to good to go by unnoticed: Austria, Estonia and Finland. Great songs. Now to our points:

  1. Sweden
  2. Norway
  3. Denmark
  4. Serbia
  5. Slovenia
  6. Italy
  7. Moldova

Our 8 points go to the neo-looped-chicken song about not being a stupid-boy-toy: ISRAEL.

10 points we give to our new family member AUSTRALIA with their encouraging hymn about love.

And finally, our 12 points for our winner of the contest, to the shooting star runner up...
...BULGARIA! Congratulations.

Live long and hear music!
