Anthemic pop with gospel overtones for Sweden - I've a feeling this could do quite well.

Apparently the guy who wrote and performs this also co-wrote the UK entry.

I have a question

Given its a Sweepstakes - What do I win, and to be honest I got Azerbaijan and by no stretch of the imagination is Azerbaijan in Europe. Not sure if the song that good or not either

That aside - When I win. What do I win ?

Do I have to pay to take part because I don't see how I can win if I haven't paid an entry fee yet. Or is it just ''Bragging Rights'' on NSC ?

As is the case with all NSC sweepstakes, it's purely for fun.

There's no entry fee and no prize other than the "bragging rights" you mention above. [emoji106]

Yep, I'm married to a Check and spend a lot of time there. You have no chance. The music is god damn fecking awful. They have this music channel called Slagr TV and it is always hilarious to watch. Always traditionally dressed and singing bollox in a field.

Even Mrs Mac takes the piss.

I want to win this title desperately. To hold this and the rugby 6 nations prediction title in the same year would be my greatest achievement yet.

These are the bets I've gone with:

Poland and Australia clearly the best songs so that's where most of my money's gone. I don't have the balls to let the bets ride though so I'll cash out way before the end of the contest!

Christ on a bike. Just listened to the UK entry. So feckin boring. Why is it we produce fantastic music but when it comes to Eurovision, we churn out such piles of poo?

All been rubbish since Save Your Kisses for Me.
