Russian love hack votings
Russians are messing with the poll I guess…
Malena
Armenia sure
Armenia will win
Ok so I’m following this poll since the beginning, and I can confirm that Russia and Ukraine have really weird moves in this, maybe somebody has shared the link of this poll… I know these polls are only for the fun and these persons sharing this poll should know that, and should know that these countries lose credibility doing that because the results are not relevant but rather fanciful because of them. Sorry for the countries implied in this.
I don’t quite understand what’s weird here for you? Tanya is a favorite artist and singer in Russia. She has a large community and active social media. Tanya’s audience loves and supports her very much, so there is nothing surprising in these actions! Sorry, if my answer is a little bit rude:)
Well in which world Russia got 500 votes more in 1 hour and exactly 500? It’a huge amount seeing the others. No wonder why….. lol they are not even subtle but to try to ruin a poll about children is really pathetic imo, I hope wiwi will do their job on this.
L?l))) The video for “Mon ami” was released on December 1st. Of course, the country will support its representative in the international arena. The press also actively supports Tanya !!!
Besides, what does 500 votes mean for Russia?)))
It’s a tie between Armenia, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, and Russia. I have my reasons: With Armenia, Malena Fox deserves a victory because she was selected to represent her country in Junior Eurovision 2020, before they withdrew due to socio-political issues regarding the Nagorno-Karabakh War. Also being a K-pop fan myself, the song exudes K-pop vibes, particularly that of BoA, Chungha, and Loona’s Olivia Hye. Ireland used to be my last place because I thought Maiu was given the wrong song that doesn’t fit his voice color. But being a rock fan myself, I’m very happy that Maiu takes Irish rock… Read more »

Wait y’all how long have you’ve been watching ESC/JESC?
My top 5 :
1: North Macedonia
2 : Italy
3: Armenia
4: Geogira
5 : Ukraine
I would be happy if any of them won
Armenia, Azerbaijan, France, North Macedonia and Poland stand out for me
My top 7:
Top 3
Armenia
Poland
North Macedonia
I would be happy if any of my top 5 win: Ukraine, Armenia, Italy, North Macedonia or Georgia.
I think Armenia, France or Poland. And what’s up with people condemning Armenia’s song to be more mature? Do you guys know what songs nowadays kids listen? There could be a huge difference between a 9-year old kid and 12 year old kid, so maybe jesc needs to be for kids at 8-10 age and create a teen Eurovision for 12-15?
no pls not that idea jesc is just fine some ppl dont seem to get that it is watched by kids from 8 to 16 mostly and they all hear pop and mature songs and the radio. And also its not like there are only mature songs this year
I would be happy if North Macedonia, Armenia, Poland or Italy wins.
Spain is my country and this time I think we wont be in top 5.
I strongly suspect Spain will get its worst Junior Eurovision result ever this year. I don’t think it’s strong enough for a top four placing.
My favorite is Italy.
Armenia is my favourite, but it sounds too mature for eurojunior. Poland, Spain, North Macedonia and, soft spot, Portugal are my other favs.
Yo, I won’t knock a song for being “too good” 😀 the bar for JESC is being raised, and I’m all for it. Go Armenia
This year I see at least 5 or 6 potential winners. My personal favourite is Ireland, though I already know it will come last 🙁
My top (only songs I like):
since I am not able to find the poll, I am writing my winner here: Albania
Also my other favourites: North Macedonia, Armenia, France, Spain,Italy, though this year it is really difficult to choose a winner, we have to wait for their performances in Paris, because every song is so good ?
GO GREEN FORCES….WHAT A SONG. WHAT A MESSAGE. THIS IS ANTHEM!
My top 19
19.Kazakhstan
18.Georgia

15.Malta

5.Albania
4.Russia
3.Italy
2.Armenia
1.Macedonia
All 19 songs are good and 7 of them are outstanding. There should be no looser this year but we all know that is impossible. I gave my 5 votes (like in the real voting) to: Armenia, Russia, Azerbaijan, Germany and Italy.
I haven’t voted for Kazakhstan here for their studio version BUT I genuinely think that in live it will be powerful like it was for their 2019 entry and many people like me will change their mind.
Italy or France. Armenia third.
I woted for Georgia, Niko is Amazing
Spain, North-Macedonia, France.
Albania, Armenia, Italy and Ukraine
What’s even the point of having a vote like this. Anyone who doesn’t have Armenia as the their winner is just getting shouted down and it’s really sad to see. There are 18 other songs participating in this contest that deserve respect and people need to acknowledge that Armenia hasn’t won yet, and it may not win. Personally Spain is my favourite.
That’s true. My winner is Italy this year.
Georgia is my favorite. Niko has charisma, and good voice. He is not afraid in singing in different languages. Since the 1st time I heard the song I was in amazed. The song is really for Junior Eurovision. It will please kids and adults.
I agree! Junior Eurovision should be a stage for children to show their innocence.
Georgia is my personal favourite and if this was actually a genuine Eurovision for juniors, I would expect it to do really well.
However, Poland and Armenia are just too polished, just too good. I think Poland wins this comfortably again.
Azerbaijan singer has an incredible voice and also the song is very good.
Armenia should have used the song for Eurovision and not for junior Eurovision.
France and Spain entries are very entertaining.
Italy’s song has a very strong chorus.
Tbh I really dont like the fact that you can vote for your own country, i think some countries have a large viewing of JESC, I think because of that poland or Armenia will win ( and im not saying that they do not deserve it)
personally, My favourite is North Macedonia this year and I really hope they win however I do realise that some songs such as Qami Qami probably will win. Here is my top 19 songs: North Macedonia Germany Kazakhstan (Yes, i really like it, especially after the revamp! I feel the song is much stronger now.) Albania Azerbaijan Russia Georgia Armenia Poland Malta Spain France Netherlands Ukraine Italy Ireland Portugal Serbia Bulgaria Comments: North Macedonia: This song is really really really good! I think this will do really well in the contest aswell, as I think that it will get a… Read more »
I love Ukraine, I really respect that Olena seems to be the primary writer of her song and it sounds so good!!
I also love North Macedonia and France, but all the kids are great performers and I wish them all the best!
My favorite is Armenia, but would be happy if any song won in my top 5 which include Spain, Germany, Georgia, or N. Macedonia.
My apsolute favorite is NIko from Georgia
Georgia is fantastic!!! go Georgia. I can hear this music 24/7
Sorry if anybody doesn’t agree. But that is my opinion. Malena is amazing, has great vocals and she looks amazing. But the song for me is the problem. Sorry if you didnt like what I said. That is my predictions. If you think I’m just a polish person who is trying to put Armenia in bad light because they have a “better” song, you are wrong. My favourite is North Macedonia, since it has great production, great vocals and just overall great package for winning.
poll still not working with firefox.
voted with chrome for italy but ukraine,poland and also armenia have strong songs too.
after hearing all songs again i would add north macedonia to above.
france is not so my cup of tea can do very well,too.
🙂
Georgia??????
Armenian continue their trend to votes for themself and so, for bland songs.
Voted, Russia, North Macedonia and Georgia.
Tell me you’re Azeri without saying you’re Azeri.
i love serbia, poland, italy and armenia. rooting for ireland mum own country ofc but wouldn’t be disappointed to see any of the above winning
Voted Germany Georgia Albania France North Macedonia, pure jesc essence.
Armenia is my favourite by faaaar. It’s not too childish and too adult. Perfectly matched voice/visuals/song/melody. This gurl got bars and some haters are just mad for no reason. Her song is only one the non-esc fan would listen too cuz it got higher quality not messy dumbish songs under which 40+ old esc fans will vibe. Go and win it greetings from Italy
ah ok
i am rooting for Ireland Portugal and Malta
Armenia has the best-produced song of all Junior Eurovision entries, the instrumental and vocals are really impressive.
The song is mostly in Armenia, however, the few English lyrics that are sung are simple and easy to understand – which is very important since 17 of the 19 countries participating don’t speak English. So, the lyrics aren’t ‘lazily written’, they’re just simple and easy to understand (for children).
Well that just my opinion that it is lazily written, I dont like it when its too simple I find it lazy then, I like a bit more flavour. Also, about the languages I have no problem, would’ve preferred if it was all in Armenian actually. Vocals are amazing, but for me its just the song that I dislike. I’ve been to many sports shops and those types of songs are played and I don’t like.
