Since semi-final 1 of Eurovision is in 7(!!!) days, I decided to rank all of this year's songs based on how much I like them.

ALBANIA
I was really torn on whether or not I should place Albania higher, but I feel like this is the place they deserve. I have loved this song since the first time I listened to it, and the fact that Albania has been able to remain this high in my rankings after revealing their song first proves how fantastic this song is. I LOVE anything ethnic and powerful, which is exactly what Ktheju Tökes is. Jonida has one of the best female vocals this year, and I get goosebumps every time I hear her belting out the high notes. Without knowing what this song is about, you still can hear all of the emotions in Jonida's vocals, which is also why I love this entry so much. Albania sticking to their native language as well was 100% the correct choice, and the revamp only made me love this even more. While I wanted to place this higher, I just don't listen to it as much as my top 4, which is why it has found itself at 5th. While her first rehearsal was a little disappointing, I'm really hoping major changes are made, because this is a FANTASTIC song that I love, and it deserves to do really well. I really hope this can qualify because this song is too powerful and beautiful to miss the final. Definitely one of the best ever Albanian entries.
