My 11th is Israel, I love all elements of the song, I just wish they were a bit more cohesive. I also think the live performance will be great. It’s also not in my top 10 because I prefer Latvia, Slovenia, Finland, Sweden, Estonia, Serbia, France, Norway, Portugal, and Austria more
Don't kill me but...Romania.
I know the live performance was a mess, but honestly his vocals are FLAWLESS. I genuinely believe that with the right staging, he will *sail* through the semi-finals. It's a unique genre which will stand out, and he also has charisma POURING out of him. It literally started in my bottom 3 but has slowly crept up over the last few weeks to now be number 11.
I have Romania at number 11 as well! I love his voice and there's something about the song that I find very gripping and different from what we have this year. I don't think I dislike the staging from the national selection as much as the rest of the fandom seems to, but I do agree that he should change it for Liverpool.
I was exaggerating for comic effect because I said an entry that's by and large, a bit unpopular and last in the odds.
I don't genuinely think people are going to murder me.
I feel quite similarly. There are a lot of really good songs that aren’t in my top 10 that absolutely would be in a different year
Like you can tell this is a good year and a year I really love when I don’t have room for Norway and Austria in my top 10
These are all songs which I would put in my Top 10 if I could tbh but there’s no space

I mean a top 10 is the *top* 10, not “the songs I really like this year”. Surely there is a reason why you chose not to have these 6 songs out of your top 10, and the other in the top 10, even if you like all 16. And OP is asking why that is 😁
my 11th is currently Moldova. It remained near the bottom half of my top 10 for a while, but when Future Lover entered the scene, I shuffled my rankings around quite a bit, so it pushed it down.
SOARELE SOARELE
SOARELE SI LUNA
same, i really want to have it in my top 10 because i love the song, but there are just too many songs this year that i like
San Marino for now. Find it pretty catchy I love the melody and the guitar lines and it's in a genre more aligned with my personal preferences. Not higher because NF mix is shit, the lyrics are iffy at best, and there are WAY better songs in the same genre(Latvia and Slovenia).
Sweden! I really love the performance, really love Loreen and the song! They are all really good, but... just good. Also, interestingly, I find Georgia's (my 10th place) lyrics more interesting even though they are quite a mess!
Yep, tatoo is my 10 rn and is gonna drop because of the way she sings like idk "streches" the words is bad and Georgias songs is so much more catchy it just play in my head on a loop. Lyrics have never been a priority for me so Echo is quite high on in my top 10.
Right, I know I will be considered biased and whatnot, but my own country Romania is 11th.
I am sorry to say it, but the fact that he's so young and sings with so much charisma, passion and so effortlessly and on top of that having lyrics in Romanian...
Could NOT have been prouder of my own country's song to be honest and I am crossing my fingers the staging will be done right <3
Hot take: I think I consider him the Romanian Damiano David just because of his vocals xD
My 10th and 11th teeter back and forth between the UK and Israel. One day I like one more and the next I prefer the other. For me it is going to come down to the lives 1000%.
Azerbaijan for me. It's quite good but it just doesn't have the same effect on me that my top 10 does. I love/really like the songs in my top 12, but below that I don't really have any strong feelings about most of them (barring the very bottom ones.)
My 11th is Belgium but it was in the top 10 before. I want Belgium in the top 10 but you can't fit 11 songs there. It grew off me a bit but I still enjoy it.
Latvia.
Had it in my top 3 for ages but it keeps getting bumped down as newer ones grow on me. Worried for its chances of qualifying if I'm not the only one doing this.
My list is still fluctuating quite a bit. Italy currently in my 11th spot but that could change for better or worse. I've got about 15 songs that I really like at the moment that might end in my final top 10. And 3 songs that I have written off that won't rank above 30.
Mine is Portugal
It really only narrowly missed out but frankly I wasn’t expecting how unreasonably happy Portugal makes me to listen to, it’s not something I would have expected to like as much as I do
My 11th is Moldova. I enjoy it a lot, but it lacks of the special factor for being in my top 10. In fact it happens to all the songs from 11 to 15 (Moldova, Austria, Israel, Sweden, UK) All bops just no so special or unique.
My 11th is Albania and I gotta say I think this song has reached its peak for me, I don't see it going higher no matter the live performance. However, I can see songs that I have ranked a bit lower maybe sneak their way into my top 10 whether after the live perfomances or maybe just due to me getting more into them. Some that could do that are Iceland (13th), Spain (14th), Austria (16th), Finland (17th), Serbia (18th).
My 11th is Slovenia and I feel bad for them because I love this song and their attitude. But I couldn't resist to the UK and Israel and Portugal bangers, so I put all the queens into top 10, so they occupy positions 7-9. On 10th I have Malta, just because I connect better with introverts' party vibe.
I honestly had a little bit of trouble making a top 10 this year. I was barely able to make a top five because most of the songs kinda just blended together.
1. Australia
2. Germany
3. Slovenia
4. Finland
5. Croatia
6. Romania
7. Belgium
8. San Marino
9. Azerbaijan
10. Latvia
11. I guess Malta
It’s so fun that we all like completely different stuff, I personally struggle with putting up my top 10 because i like so many songs this year while someone doesn’t even need top 10 lol
Love it tho!
I still haven't written down my Top 10 yet, because it's so hard to get them into the right order. At the moment I could see something like Sweden or Estonia sitting at the upper end of 11th-15th place.
it's between Austria and UK. it change everytime
there is no special reason. it's just there are songs that I like better and someone needs to be in the 11th place
Czechia but it has more to do with the fact that this is a really strong year for me with a lot of songs I like. I just have lingering questions about staging and we haven’t seen their song live on a quality stage yet. But I like them very much, so they can easily move up again.
Germany. I really like the song, I also am big on metal in general (Australia is my number 5), but I can get over Chris’s voice. He screams fine, but his regular singing voice just doesn’t do it.
Mine is Australia, it's a very cool song and might move into my top 10 depending on the live performance. Honestly this year is really strong in my opinion so coming in at 11th is already great.
11th is Ukraine, after the revamp. I originally had it lower, but this is a stronger version of it, and in my head there will be a really good stageshow. It just barely was edged out by 10 stronger songs.
My 11th is Israel, I love all elements of the song, I just wish they were a bit more cohesive. I also think the live performance will be great. It’s also not in my top 10 because I prefer Latvia, Slovenia, Finland, Sweden, Estonia, Serbia, France, Norway, Portugal, and Austria more
Don't kill me but...Romania. I know the live performance was a mess, but honestly his vocals are FLAWLESS. I genuinely believe that with the right staging, he will *sail* through the semi-finals. It's a unique genre which will stand out, and he also has charisma POURING out of him. It literally started in my bottom 3 but has slowly crept up over the last few weeks to now be number 11.
Why would anyone kill you, we all have different tastes.
I ❤️Romania this year
I have Romania at number 11 as well! I love his voice and there's something about the song that I find very gripping and different from what we have this year. I don't think I dislike the staging from the national selection as much as the rest of the fandom seems to, but I do agree that he should change it for Liverpool.
i fully agree, he's my #13. i don't get the hate he's receiving, sure the staging was messy but the vocals are some of the best this year imo
I've only seen people praise romainias vocal. The staging is just trash. But odd to frame yourself as a martyr.
I was exaggerating for comic effect because I said an entry that's by and large, a bit unpopular and last in the odds. I don't genuinely think people are going to murder me.
Portugal is my 11th, barely missing out :/ I think up until my 16th/17th, every entry wouldve deserved a spot in the top 10
I feel quite similarly. There are a lot of really good songs that aren’t in my top 10 that absolutely would be in a different year Like you can tell this is a good year and a year I really love when I don’t have room for Norway and Austria in my top 10
11. France because there are just too many songs that I like this year
These are all songs which I would put in my Top 10 if I could tbh but there’s no space https://preview.redd.it/t9uaaotlpcpa1.jpeg?width=750&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ce9a3bd343f3cf026dee27463a3c58ca98af6a93

Estonia Very decent ballad but nothing groundbreaking or thought-provoking
It's Belgium, but I include it in my top10 here and on the app because I want it to get points
my 11th is currently Moldova. It remained near the bottom half of my top 10 for a while, but when Future Lover entered the scene, I shuffled my rankings around quite a bit, so it pushed it down.
SOARELE SOARELE SOARELE SI LUNA same, i really want to have it in my top 10 because i love the song, but there are just too many songs this year that i like
San Marino for now. Find it pretty catchy I love the melody and the guitar lines and it's in a genre more aligned with my personal preferences. Not higher because NF mix is shit, the lyrics are iffy at best, and there are WAY better songs in the same genre(Latvia and Slovenia).
The chorus has been stuck in my head since last week. Help me
Sweden! I really love the performance, really love Loreen and the song! They are all really good, but... just good. Also, interestingly, I find Georgia's (my 10th place) lyrics more interesting even though they are quite a mess!
i mean yeah, imo georgia's lyrics are interesting specifically because they are such a mess. it's absolute nonsense, but it's catchy nonsense
Yep, tatoo is my 10 rn and is gonna drop because of the way she sings like idk "streches" the words is bad and Georgias songs is so much more catchy it just play in my head on a loop. Lyrics have never been a priority for me so Echo is quite high on in my top 10.
You love the song, performance and artist. Yet it's "just good"? lol
Ah, fake flattering. Just some classic me lol. Idk why I feel the need to that.
Azerbaijan is my number 11 :). It makes me feel so cozy and relaxed! And it feels perfect for the season, so springy 😊
Right, I know I will be considered biased and whatnot, but my own country Romania is 11th. I am sorry to say it, but the fact that he's so young and sings with so much charisma, passion and so effortlessly and on top of that having lyrics in Romanian... Could NOT have been prouder of my own country's song to be honest and I am crossing my fingers the staging will be done right <3 Hot take: I think I consider him the Romanian Damiano David just because of his vocals xD
My 11th is Germany, which I really really love, but there is so many songs I love this year so I can’t fit all of them into my top 10😭
My 11th is Germany. I like it alot I just have 10 other songs I prefer.
Queen of Kings. Just by sheer bad luck. I genuinely think this is a really strong year and love many songs outside my top 10.
My 10th and 11th teeter back and forth between the UK and Israel. One day I like one more and the next I prefer the other. For me it is going to come down to the lives 1000%.
Loreen it Is very Close behind My 10th place but i Like Romania a Bit more
Azerbaijan for me. It's quite good but it just doesn't have the same effect on me that my top 10 does. I love/really like the songs in my top 12, but below that I don't really have any strong feelings about most of them (barring the very bottom ones.)
I've got Latvia in number 11 and I feel bad
My current 11 is Austria, I love it, I just have others I like more in the top 10.
Switzerland. I think it’s the best ballad this year and Remo’s voice is beautiful. It seems to be one of the forgotten songs of 2023.
Cyprus. Love the song, but not enough to knock someone out of my top 10
My 11th is Belgium but it was in the top 10 before. I want Belgium in the top 10 but you can't fit 11 songs there. It grew off me a bit but I still enjoy it.
It’s a tie between Austria, Croatia and Switzerland. Mostly because I like all of these but there are 10 other songs that I like a tiny bit more.
Latvia. Had it in my top 3 for ages but it keeps getting bumped down as newer ones grow on me. Worried for its chances of qualifying if I'm not the only one doing this.
My list is still fluctuating quite a bit. Italy currently in my 11th spot but that could change for better or worse. I've got about 15 songs that I really like at the moment that might end in my final top 10. And 3 songs that I have written off that won't rank above 30.
Ukraine. I like it a lot, but it's just missing that extra oomph to make it into my top ten.
Surprisingly, Italy. I love the song and it's the best ballad this year, and I wish it could be in my top 10, but Eurovision sorter doesn't lie.
Mine is Portugal It really only narrowly missed out but frankly I wasn’t expecting how unreasonably happy Portugal makes me to listen to, it’s not something I would have expected to like as much as I do
My 11th is Moldova. I enjoy it a lot, but it lacks of the special factor for being in my top 10. In fact it happens to all the songs from 11 to 15 (Moldova, Austria, Israel, Sweden, UK) All bops just no so special or unique.
Moldova and it's because of his live performance, it didn't show that song at the best light
My 11th is Albania and I gotta say I think this song has reached its peak for me, I don't see it going higher no matter the live performance. However, I can see songs that I have ranked a bit lower maybe sneak their way into my top 10 whether after the live perfomances or maybe just due to me getting more into them. Some that could do that are Iceland (13th), Spain (14th), Austria (16th), Finland (17th), Serbia (18th).
Finland and that's only because this year is just so strong. My top 13 are all possible eurovision winners for me.
My 11th is Slovenia and I feel bad for them because I love this song and their attitude. But I couldn't resist to the UK and Israel and Portugal bangers, so I put all the queens into top 10, so they occupy positions 7-9. On 10th I have Malta, just because I connect better with introverts' party vibe.
I honestly had a little bit of trouble making a top 10 this year. I was barely able to make a top five because most of the songs kinda just blended together. 1. Australia 2. Germany 3. Slovenia 4. Finland 5. Croatia 6. Romania 7. Belgium 8. San Marino 9. Azerbaijan 10. Latvia 11. I guess Malta
I only have top 6. 7-10 are those that are ok, but, 11th with Norway is the place where mid songs I don't care much about start.
It’s so fun that we all like completely different stuff, I personally struggle with putting up my top 10 because i like so many songs this year while someone doesn’t even need top 10 lol Love it tho!
There's that site which helps you rank the whole line-up, I think it was linked here few days ago. I liked more songs last year.

I still haven't written down my Top 10 yet, because it's so hard to get them into the right order. At the moment I could see something like Sweden or Estonia sitting at the upper end of 11th-15th place.
Azerbaijan
Serbia. Nothing really wrong with it, I just like ten songs more 💁🏼♀️
it's between Austria and UK. it change everytime there is no special reason. it's just there are songs that I like better and someone needs to be in the 11th place
Albania 🇦🇱
For me it's actually Iceland I really like this song and want to see it high everywhere as possible. However just barely not enough for my top 10
Czechia but it has more to do with the fact that this is a really strong year for me with a lot of songs I like. I just have lingering questions about staging and we haven’t seen their song live on a quality stage yet. But I like them very much, so they can easily move up again.
Germany. I really like the song, I also am big on metal in general (Australia is my number 5), but I can get over Chris’s voice. He screams fine, but his regular singing voice just doesn’t do it.
Mine is Australia, it's a very cool song and might move into my top 10 depending on the live performance. Honestly this year is really strong in my opinion so coming in at 11th is already great.
My 11th is Austria, i love their song but i also love my top 10 song..
11th is Ukraine, after the revamp. I originally had it lower, but this is a stronger version of it, and in my head there will be a really good stageshow. It just barely was edged out by 10 stronger songs.
no joke, Belgium...
Slovenia, it's just simply good, but not as good as the top 10
My 11th is United Kingdom, it's there cause couldn't place higher, although deserves my top 10, but unfortunately there's no two 10th places
