Since Eurovision 2023 is less than 24 hours, I decided to rank all of this year's songs based on how much I like them.

Slovenia 馃嚫馃嚠
LEGENDS!!! My intuition is honestly so good, I predicted the second that Joker Out were announced that they'd be my favorite act this year and here we are (same happened last year with LEGEND Amanda Tenfjord). This absolute banger just came out at the perfect time for me, as my music taste has been slowly shifting toward loving to listen to indie alternative boy bands, so I just knew this was going to be just for me. The song is absolutely sold by Joker Out and legend Bojan, whose charisma and charm just carries this song to a whole other level. The song is also obviously very catchy for me, and all the elements just work so well. The slow down before the ending, hit! Every time the chorus comes in, hit!! The guitar solo, hit!!! Singing in Slovene, hit!!!! This just works so well and is elevated by the staging and these icons and I can't wait to see how polished this looks on TV and for them to be superstars for years to come <3
Slovenia is rightfully the first country to ever be 1st in my rankings twice since I started watching in 2013 (excluding 2020 -- obviously Victoria was 1st in my rankings both years) and I am so excited to root on Slovenia yet again in my 10 year Eurovision anniversary (yikes)!!!
