    I've been weighing up these songs for the last few days and I've come to the following conclusion...

    I've absolutely no idea who's going to win. Looking forward to what happens.

    It's so much more exciting with Ireland in it and actually in with a chance of winning! Really excited :)

    Really looking forward to the unpredictableness of tonight, so hard to know who’ll win and I’m really and genuinely hoping for a top 5 finish for Ireland! :)

    Should be a fun night.

    CNN sent out a news alert...a study found when a nation is in the Eurovision, the people of that nation are more likely to be happy.

    We always give you a few points even if your song is rubbish, so you should reciprocate.

    If your song is good enough it will get the votes, let's be honest the last few years the UK entry was rubbish.

    Can someone explain to me how Ireland are 3rd favourites to win this when the song was so bad? Is it as simple as putting two gay dancers on stage? I mean surely if Ireland were to come close to winning tonight it just shows how much of a joke the competition is.

    The song is bad in your opinion , I quite like it. It's latching onto the Ed Sheeran vibes among younger people and I find it quite thought out and catchy tbh. It's a simple setting too isn't super flashy.

    You may think it's bad, but clearly there is a lot of hype around it and many do like it.

    I'm sorry but the performance in the semi's was terrible. I honestly don't know how it could be described as catchy.

    Not here to troll btw or rise people, i was genuinely shocked when I saw the odds.

    Graham is not as funny as Wogan was and the Brit flag waving and him being "British" just annoys me.

    I still don't think this means we've any extra chance of winning. It's reflection of what gamblers are going and gamblers mostly lose.

    Just the bookies milking it for every penny.

    Here's one I do like though:

    Cyprus to Win Eurovision + Ireland to finish Top 10 + UK to Finish Last RequestABet Specials – Eurovision 2018. @11 (10/1).
