Sweden’s Måns Zelmerlöw stormed to victory last year in Vienna and now it’s time to choose his successor. The bookies have their favourites—you can check out the latest odds here—but who do you want to see walk away with the microphone-shaped trophy at Eurovision 2016?
Can Frans do the double for Sweden? Will Russia’s Sergey Lazarev live up to the hype? Will Australia’s Dami Im replace the “Sound of Silence” with the sound of victory? Can Croatia’s Nina Kraljic enchant with her number “Lighthouse”? And will Malta’s Ira Losco make us all go WOW? We’ve got a lot of questions, and we need y’all to help give us some answers…

I will not vote for Malta. Their singer is trying to advertise her country’s climate. How petty. They cannot win. They are a rock in the med. they have been seen to be corrupt with Panama papers. Their government would do anything to attract attention. It takes more than a show of legs of their performer, to win. I am voting for Russia.
Vote for anyone but Malta. The country is full of corruption, and racism. They sent a pretty pregnant woman, to try to win. Do not allow them. They will corrupt the Eurovision. Down with Malta.
Russia will win this year :)) Ukraine, Italy and Latvia have great songs

Ira losco from Malta .The best ….
No one should win. Here is why. There is only one good song and one good voice on esc this year. Unfortunately, they don’t belong to the same person. The best song is Lighthouse, but Nina got influenced by Dolores O’Riordan too much and I’m being taken by the time machine to 90’s every time I listen to it. Or maybe I just grew out of mermaids voices, who knows. The best voice belongs to the one and only Mr Szpak, but I prefer 90’s to 80’s:) Personally, I think they should swap songs. Poland wins and Croatia, well, you… Read more »
Poland good choice! He’s a great voice and …he loves sing. Any fake singers any Margarett
But my fav is Barei. So my votes look that:
1- Barei Spain
2- Michael Poland
3- Amir France
4- Sweden – sorry I don’t remember your name
5- Samra Azerbaijan
6 – Sanja
7- Guy from Romania
8- Zoe
9- Ukraine
10- NL
The winner is POLAND with the song by Michal Szpak! He has the best voice and a nice artistic image. The song has a clear message.
Top 3 best voices of the Eurovision Song Contest 2016
1.Poland

You didn’t know Dami im she’s a loving person with talent and a amazing voice!!!
People should support her to be a world know star like winnie hilston?But Sony music didn’t promote her to the world! Wait till you see her sing live! Wake up from all those borders to share music with the whole world. and they should start a world song composition to be fair! ;)thanks
@Layla
for me my favourite countries are: Malta, Bulgaria, Macedonia, Bosnia&Herzegovina, Czech Republic and Latvia
#TeamIraMalta and #TeamBosnia&Herzegovina #TeamPoli
Forgive me, but Australia didn’t deserve to win.
They will organize their own Eurovision for Asia and the Pacific next year.
Norway, Austria, Poland, Russia, Belarus, Azerbaijan, Ukraine, Lithuania, Armenia, France, Croatia and Bulgaria are the best! <3
Spain is good , but it's overrated now.
