Yes. You're right. The hats
The song is kinda growing on me now, especially the trumpets part, though I find it less "musical" than what they gave us 2-3 years ago, which was probably the highlight of the whole show.
That's why I was slightly disappointed.
Not my prediction but my top 10 personal favourites:
1. United Kingdom
2. France
3. Estonia
4. Slovenia
5. Italy
6. Azerbaijan
7. Moldova
8. Greece
9. Ireland ( the song, not the performance which was terrible )
10. Bosnia H
and I also liked Bulgaria and Albania which didn't qualify.
Lets see how Blue do, they're cool, down-to-earth guys who have taken the whole thing seriously. They're well-known in Europe and they can also sing live. I think their song is one of the best I've heard in Eurovision for a while and deserves to win this year; whether they do it, it's another matter. They probably won't but a position in the top 3 would be respectable.

It seems that the ESC people want to drown the competition in boredom.  |
We're in recession so I guess it had to be expected. Also the Eastern European entries are not as strong as in previous years, especially in stage presence.
