The number of confirmed entries for Lisbon finally entered double figures over the weekend. But despite the fresh influx of songs, your favourite Eurovision 2018 act so far remains unchanged — it’s Italy’s Ermal Meta & Fabrizio Moro.
Out of the 14,721 votes cast, almost one quarter went the Italians’ way. The “Non mi avete fatto niente” duo picked up 3,559 votes (24.18%).
Italy: Ermal Meta & Fabrizio Moro “Non mi avete fatto niente”
And it’s not just the number one spot that remains unchanged. Positions two to four remain the same as last time, occupied by Spain’s Alfred & Amaia, France’s Madame Monsieur and Albania’s Eugent Bushpepa respectively.
Despite a static scoreboard, all four experienced a bounce in support and enjoyed increased vote tallies week-on-week.
Spain: Alfred & Amaia “Tu canción”
The top five is rounded out by Greece’s Yianna Terzi. Her song “Óneiró mou” is the highest new entry in the current poll, picking up 1,352 votes (9.18%).

Elsewhere, Czech Republic’s Mikolas Josef leapfrogs Denmark’s Rasmussen to take sixth spot. The UK’s Surie and Switzerland’s Zibbz are next, with Belaurs’ Alekseev completing the top ten.
After several weeks, Malta’s Christabelle is no longer in last place. That ignominious honour now goes to Montenegro’s Vanja Radovanovic with “Inje”. Poor Vanja could only manage 144 votes — less than 1% of all votes cast.

I don´t get how that song can be on top, it is barely a song at all and it is really boring.
Great songs in the top 5! 🙂
Croatia will release their song on Monday! Why not include them too?
Waiting for Armenian fans. They always kidnap the poll 😀
Albania #1, sorry for the typo.
Albania is still my #2 followed very closely by Italy. Does anyone know when the official versions will be released?
It seems that the Lupi (fan club of Ermal) have already discovered the wiwibloggs´s polls hahaha
Albanians voting en masse in all online polls it seems…Because it’s defintely not italians skewing all online polls and bringing Albania near the top as well.
If Albanians would be voting en masse, trust me, Albania would be #1 now, not #4.
And check again Eugent Bushpepa’s and Eurovision Albania’s facebook pages. Not a single share of the poll.
Eugent even deleted the ones he shared in the first twk weeks.
So dear, Vangelis, proof or it didn’t happen.
not exaclty in Italy live many more albanian than in Albania, South Italy have a big albanian diaspora in the 1500 they speack actually arbresh
Albanians??’ it’s spaniards lol
Albania is genuinely liked due to Eugent’s voice and the music genre which extends beyond the immediate region. If his fans had voted, the number would be much higher. Some people are just biased against Albanians and would blame tsunamis on them if they could.
Well I’m not surprised. Given Vangelis’ name, I can just assume he is a Greek who doesn’t happen to like Albanians. Which is quite common in Greece unfortunately.
Italy, Spain and France. Ayyy rise up!
My number one is Spain , number 2 is France and then come Italy , big five do very good this year , number four , come Greece, i like it
Yay@France and Italy. 🙂
My vote has changed. I voted for Italy… but then again, I am really Italy-biased, so… 🙂
Malta = underrated
It’s good to know I’m not the only one thinking it. Malta is my second so far
Greece will rock Lisbon with this masterpiece ! So proud! Good luck to all !
It’s not a masterpiece, but it’s good. I think they will do really well!
Italy and France are so overrated but I’m not worried
It’s been like that last year as well (although France deserved a good place) and yet they didn’t do that well
Montenegro however shouldn’t be so low, it is so underrated and it’s really good 🙁
Where do you see France overrated ? Only in your little brain maybe…… you can have a favourite, you can like montenegro but don’t tell bad things about the others. Bye.
Italy, Spain = overrated. Will come last and second to last…
I also think it they are overrated, like we all spanish are voting for this, but I don’t agree with you that we will make last place in ESC. I believe we will make top 15th, or so I hope 🙂
My favorites so far are Denmark, Greece and Albania… But I also like very much Spain, Italy and France 🙂 I am eclectic
Niice! Deserved 🙂
I only voted for France and this top 7 is my top 7 on a scrambled order. The polls are just for fun, anyway, there’s no reason to fight about the results. And the fact that the voters from some countries get too excited with them doesn’t change the fact that there are people from other countries who like their songs too.
Italy is my country and our song deserves to come second-last to Spain. Can’t believe we’re sending those two voiceless mummies with the stage presence of a vacuum cleaner.
A singing and dancing vacuum cleaner in an Eurovision stage would be fun, though… 🙂
YAY!! My favourite won once again. 😀
Btw the Top 6 is actually the same as mine but in different order.
1. Italy
2. France
3. Czech Republic
4. Spain
5. Albania
6. Greece
I actually like this ranking. Those five songs are my top 5, just in a different order.
LOL. polls schmolls
For people that say the poll is rigged, how on hell can this poll be rigged.
Rumour has it…. during sunny and hot days in Spain, eurofans get down to chill and crowded caves with loads of laptops connected to super-high-speed internet, and they come here reload this website every 3 seconds, post 30 comments per minute and get paid for believing the Spanish entry is the winner year after year. This job emerged after the financial crisis started. Wanna become a eurovision hyping assistant?
Funny comment. 🙂
Nice attempt, but not very funny. The spanish better stop voting for their own entry, otherwise get ready to cry a lot in may.
I just want to emphasize that Albania is still top 4! When was the last time that this happened?
Love from Italy
This is answer is so fun :_________
But I still think that the hype for OT has brought tons of fans over here to vote for Spain…. not sure if enough to make us second, but sure these polls are recieving more spanish votes than last year
So if you remove the countrys who cheat then Czech and Denmark right now are the favorites. 😀 Nice! 😀
Haters are gonna hate.
France doesn’t cheat my dear, maybe the others or not but France no sorry.
If you remove the top 1 to 11, Montenegro is the winner. Come on!!!
countries like greece or france certainly don’t cheat . Eurofans seem to like their entries a lot
Love Italy! What a great entry! In my top I have to say they’re 2nd behind France but I love both!
Glad my country Greece is in the top 5 in the poll. We send sth interesting and different than usual.
Well Italy, Spain and Albania didn’t have that much votes the first days of the voting. They were overvoted, but I think people do rate Italy and Spain high, but not that high.
Italy is amazing!
Italy is my country and our song is my favourite, but after following how this poll evolved in the last days I must say that the result is rigged. I am so ashamed by the behaviour of some of my compatriotes.
I am ashamed by the behaviour some humans spiting rubish every time they open their mouth, without respecting others opinion. Haters of the world.
I don’t hate anyone or anything and I respect everyone’s opinion, but when I see our song’s votes increasing in batches of hundreds for one hour and almost zero in the next one I see the same people keeping voting.
Hey, sorry, I did not mean you were not respecting. Sorry, it was aimed to that people who tries to humilliate those entries they don’t back.
I can see what you mean. Fans from the big-five countries have always been blamed to high voting results in here. It’s true that something weird is going on, but…
Sorry from my side, I misunderstood your comment and I thought it was directed to me.
Can that increase in vote in hundreds in a hour and than no votes for hours, be because the page system needs time with registring votes.. like for example with youtube views.. it take times for views to show.
No….these sudden spurts of voting only happen in the last few days of the polls and out of proportion to votes within the first few hours! Italy was third by quite some distance after 24 hr of poll but Have eclipsed Spain by so much within the next 48.
Fair enough. Italy is my fav one so far, and Spain deserves a top 3 . Let’s see how the performance progress.
It’s early tho. I can’t wait for big songs to be released! Surprising ones, not just shoutly hot cheeks with average voice in front of a fan.
Lol Italia and Spain ahead France. We’ll laugh when we’ll know the final results.
Spain definitely will flop. The others will be ok.
