- EUROVISION SONG CONTEST 2009 RATINGS
For the last two years "All Kinds Of Everything" has been rating the entrants for the Eurovision Song Contest, using a five star system and using various criteria. On this page, you can find how we rate the forty two songs that will be competing in Moscow in May.
The sources we use to rate the songs are as follows;
-
Bookmakers : We review the odds being offered on each song, these can be found here and here.
-
Eurovision history : This is self explanatory, but we weight recent results more heavily than 1998 and before, due to the impact of televoting.
-
Running Order : Often seen as the difference between winning and losing and getting a good result or not.
-
Fan polls : This year we are using a composite of three internet polls, from ESCnation, Eurovision Statistics and ESCToday.
-
Webmaster : Adding our own personal touch.
Using these five sources, each entry is given an overall rating and below you can find the scores for the songs in this year's contest. The ranking of the songs is in the overall Top 10 ins in the coloured boxes.
