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.

So happy that Lesley was able to return this year and with a stronger and more competitive song! While I don't think the song is anything too special / unique, it's still very fun and upbeat, which is always appreciated. I'm also very excited to see how the stage show turns out, because it looks like it's going to be iconic :)

Don't worry, I'm also embarrassed at myself for enjoying this song so much. I just become completely enthralled by Ana's vocals every time she starts singing. I also cannot help but blast the final chorus every time Ana hits that final hallelujah. It really is glorious.

So so happy that Samanta is finally able to get her shot to go to Eurovision and that she is serving a song just as chaotic as last year. This is just purely iconic because of how messy it is, yet it still somewhat works which is why I love it so much. It's just so much fun and I'm so excited to see Samanta go off live. Forever my composer.

Okay... I know this may be super unpopular, so I have to firstly say that I literally love all of these songs from now on. Now, for Elena. I am absolutely obsessed with the stage show she is serving this year and can definitely see it rising up in my rankings come Tuesday. However, for now, it just isn't anything *too* exciting for me. Considering how many female pop songs we have this year, this one just falls a little flat for me in comparison to the others, but like I said, the staging looks phenomenal and I can't wait for Elena to go off.
