@barneyedaniel Dated song.. old fashioned key change. She'd have been a real contender with a much better number.

Maturing means also considering Australia as a possible winner.

@Heeehooooo @dean_eurovision @Chemieunfall Last year, frankly was a flop. I loved the song but the concept of "the sands of time" was lost on most people. Voila was minimalist/competent. But "spectacular" was the word in vogue. Never seen that from France.

@DowdMark @dean_eurovision @Chemieunfall The idea last year was great and I thought Voila was quite spectacular

i’m starting to see a route for France to win #Eurovision

@doosetxdaram Yes.. and I expect you predicted Telemoveis to win for Portugal in 2019 as well?

My Eurovision 2026 Predictions: - Germany 🇩🇪 will win the televote because Sarah has lots of fans - Australia 🇦🇺 will win the jury and the whole contest - Denmark 🇩🇰 will be a shock NQ - Belgium 🇧🇪 will be a dark horse and come top 10 #Eurovision #Eurovision2026

@Misterk511 @doosetxdaram That's not a winning total. The televote weakness and dated song will harm her chances. Amazing vocalist. She needed a more contemporary composition.

@doosetxdaram 299 jury 100 public - 399 points 👉🏻 1st or 2nd place

This was the moment we all realised Australia will win Eurovision 2026 by a landslide. #Eurovision #Eurovision2026

@okyxxnus The fact that voting is open from the start has nullified the historical perceived disadvantages of being in running order 1-6. Having said that, 2004-2025, only one winner sang in the 1-9 slots.. Tattoo.

its kind of insane how running order's impact on televoting drastically changed after the new system. if someone would tell me the 3rd running entry will end up in 2nd place I would think theyre on nuts a few years ago😭

@lanaseurovision The race for second place should be interesting...

It’s not even my first place this year but they are the only ones that deserve victory i can’t believe people are saying they are not winning #eurovision2026

@Chemieunfall @dean_eurovision Sans aucun doute! !

@DowdMark @dean_eurovision I bet the Eiffel tower will be present too 😂

@dean_eurovision @Chemieunfall When did the French last produce "spectacular staging"?

@Chemieunfall i'm think - IF the juries aren't bored senseless by three years of operatics AND she can perform with charisma/ spectacular staging it may be a contender

@taylorwthelays Sweden.. yuk!

Aside from one song this is such a strong top 10

@doosetxdaram To win the whole contest, it's not enough to get a decent jury score. The song is, alas, rather outdated. That key change! So early 1990s. She'll come 3-6th.

Delta’s jury win odds increasing after her amazing performance at the Nordic preparty. Shes so gonna win the whole contest. #Eurovision #Eurovision2026

@SaulStaniforth Dr Strangelove comes to mind ..

Kevin Maguire on Donald Trump: "He comes across as utterly deranged, unhinged and a mad man" #GMB

@JamesMakesStuff Finland in the lead.. now THAT makes sense.. after Sweden last week!! 😀

The results of The Model's simulation of #Eurovision for March 23 📊

📊🇫🇮 The Model's latest update is here, and Finland has hit the front. 🥇 'Liekinheitin' is now projected as the current favourite to win #Eurovision 2026, followed by France and Denmark. The update includes a tweak that reduces the weight of past results in the methodology 📉

@ESCinConcert @DeltaGoodrem @AFASLive @songfestivalNL @Songfestival_be @aussievisionnet @OGAE_Australia @Eurovoix @ThatEuroSite @wiwibloggs @cornaldm @escxtra Amazing vocalist. Pity the song is so outdated otherwise she'd be a contender for the win. It's a long time since a Eurovision winner had such an obvious key change 30 secs from the end! 😊

We’re delighted to announce Australian🇦🇺 superstar @DeltaGoodrem as our 24th confirmed act for Eurovision in Concert 2026!🤩 The lights of @AFASLive will fade for this one; get ready for a magical ‘Eclipse’ in Amsterdam!🇳🇱 #EurovisioninConcert #songfestival #eurovision

@vodimtenigranku Beautiful Mess.. was the unluckiest runner up, ever

Bulgaria 2017 score being higher than 2018, 2019, 2021, 2023, 2024 and 2025 winners 😭

@RichB70771493 @KlausEsc33 The key change is so... Passé.

@KlausEsc33 It's not as good as Million Voices 2015. I think it won't win.

Yeah contender for the win

@KlausEsc33 Great voice and performer. Very out of date and mediocre song from 20/30 years back. Not a winner.

@EurovisionNewZ That is a HUGE gap between first and second.

🇫🇷OGAE France revealed their points for the OGAE vote for #Eurovision 2026. The 12 Points go to… Finland! Finland is currently in the lead.

@PODNO7 @sistoney67 Carrick has won all his home games... So... Yes.

@DowdMark @sistoney67 So long as it's 3 points vs Leeds

Chelsea seven points behind Man Utd, so guaranteed still to be behind them after game at Stamford Bridge on 18 April. Looks like Man Utd point at Bournemouth was a very good one.

@sistoney67 Everton beating Chelsea. That point last night suddenly looking quite an achievement! 😀

Liverpool six points behind Man Utd with seven games left. Looking like they will have to win at OT in May.
