Since semi-final 1 of Eurovision is in 4 days, I decided to rank all of this year's songs based on how much I like them.

Czech Republic
Okay, it's actually funny how this worked out, because from now on out I really like all of the songs and have them added on my Eurovision playlist for this year :) Anyways, I really like this song much better than Kemama. I think it's a lot of fun and Benny is just a great and charismatic performer. While the staging has slightly let me down, I'm still hopeful that this will come together on the night, because Benny deserves it!

Switzerland
I can really understand why so many people love this entry and Gjon's music in general, but his songs don't fully connect with me. Like I appreciate how beautiful and theatrical this is, but it doesn't really excite me too much. Still, I think it's a phenomenal effort from Switzerland and would love to see them receive a good placement again.

United Kingdom
Really like this direction for the United Kingdom. This is much more fresher and slicker than their entry from last year, and it's just an overall solid pop track. Not much else to say other than the trumpets slap.

Belgium
This song has been rapidly growing on me, but I have to place it here for now because it doesn't really stand out too much for me. Sonically, I really love the vibe and the lyrics are interesting and fresh for the Eurovision stage. However, the fact that the song doesn't really go anywhere is what prohibits me from placing it higher. Sure, it's not really the type of song that *needs* a climax, but still, in a year as strong as this one, it just gets forgotten for me as a result.
