Albania - 0 wins
Whining ethnic vocal to a dance-able pop tune verses a whiny songwriting pop princess wannabe who really should find a real job. Neither of these songs is rated as a challenger by the bookmakers and there is a reason for that.

Albania went for the tried and failed method of selecting someone who is hugely popular in their home country. With a career in music and the media spanning about 20 years, it was hard for any form of national selection to go against her. And though national selections sometimes get the wrong result, it is better than an crap internal selection. Merci, Cherie, please exit stage left. There is no way Austria will Rise like the Phoenix with this song.
It is a matter of which song is the least shit and with that in mind I am going Albania
