I think it’ll do better with the juries than Sweden did last year by a few places (they were 9th in the jury vote). Maybe not quite as good in the televote (insanely, 2nd in the televote last year was Saade) but half decent. The song is less memorable definitely but, to me at least, more pleasant. Less trashy. More “cool”. Also more bland. lol
Assuming qualfication that equates to a relatively comfy top 10 spot (he said with no conviction).
The song itself is where it falls down for me. I think the “too engineered” is it’s saving grace as that’s all that really stands out in my view. Average song with a well produced, modern, sound, equals a tough one to call.
Threatening the top 5 I’ll stick by for now. How is it being received around the old world wide web?
