Aussievision jury revisited - Dan from Spain and Kat from Hungary

For the Aussievision song review podcast series we went out to 12 Europeans and 12 Australians to get their full 41 song order. This was way back in March so over the next few days we'll be going back to some of these jury members to get their thoughts ahead of the live show last week. Next up we have two members:

Dan from Spain

His original picks

1. The Netherlands

2. Italy

3. Switzerland

4. Portugal

5. Ireland

Who is your favourite and has that changed?

So there is no one that really stands out for me, but my top favorite at this point is probably Azerbaijan. Definitely the one I’ve been listening to the most!

Who do you think will win?

I think Sergey from Russia might take it home this time. Even though the song is what it is, his stage show will awe audiences and the jury will be more receptive to his vocal performance this time around.

Who do you think will do better than expected?

Israel, if they get the staging just right.

Who is your potential shock to not qualify?

Sadly, I think people will not be able to understand Portugal’s bit of madness.

How do you think Australia will do and has it changed in your ranking?

The song, I still really don’t care for it but, judging on the stage show, I think a top 10 is definitely within the reach, maybe even a little higher.

Any other comments or predictions?

I think Duncan from The Netherlands, as much as I love it, will flop in Francesco Gabbani style.

Kat from Hungary

Her original picks

1. Iceland

2. Sweden

3. Switzerland

4. Netherlands

5. Belarus

Who is your favourite and has that changed

My favourite is still Iceland, although I've been listening to Netherlands much more than any other entry lately so maybe that will change after ESC

Who do you think will win?

I believe it's gonna go to Sweden, the only other song I can see winning is NL but I see much more winner potential in John

Who do you think will do better than expected?

Slovenia and Denmark, i think both will get top 10 or be very near

Who is your potential shock to not qualify?

Norway and Portugal sadly

How do you think Australia will do and has it changed in your ranking?

Australia will probably will do very well, I can see another top 10 for you guys but the song is still my 41st (although I do like the floating staging and her dress is gorgeous!)

Any other comments or predictions?

Just a random prediction plus, that Russia won't finish in the top 5
