All independent good judges had the UK entry easily best -- song and production and performance .
It came second to last .
That's all you actually need to know about this failed concept .

All three countries of Caucasus belong to Europe and it isn't about oil Belarus doesn't have any and they are run by same style of dictatorship

It is not a geographic definition but those who are part of a broadcasting union I believe several north African countries are also eligible to enter, it think at once stage it was mooted in lybia.

Who will win ? Unfortunately the Balkan countries cheat as does Russia and most of the ex Soviet countries . Rotten cheats . Otherwise Spain and the UK would do well .
Our entry is 75 years old , classiest man and still a tip top voice .
The Russian entry is awful . So bad it will probably do OK . But when I say bad , I really mean effing awful .

Particular on Balkans, why would they cheat if the songs are good and meet some standards of quality music and get voted for that as a matter of the fact Macedonia is entering finals for the first time after a long time, also it is been long time that Bosnia is not in top 10 (got 6,7,8 points from its Balkan neighbors) and Serbia was meant to win according to that, but diaspora tell you the truth made a big contribution to the high rankings otherwise Malta and such things would win :P all in all, Balkans used to send very good songs all these years and Big 5 made an exception from it's past entries this year and last year only. and that's why you get low rankings :P Cheers brotha'
