Ireland went for a turkey, Ukraine chose a Shady Lady and Poland chose an American lady. This Saturday also saw Romania, Croatia, Bulgaria, Macedonia and Iceland choose their entries, however none of these countries made as big an impact as Ireland, Ukraine and Poland. It remains to be seen if anyone outside of Ireland will get Dustin The Turkey. It's utterly bizarre but there's actually something quite good about the song, it's definitely entertaining. Isis Gee sings a powerful ballad for Poland. I see it being in the top 10 but I don't see it winning. Ukraine have once again delivered the total package with Shady Lady. It's a good song, the vocals are good and the dancing is good. It's definitely up there with Switzerland as one of my two tips to win this year.
Israel have chosen a rather boring song.
