Another weekend of Eurovision 2025 selections means that we climb from three confirmed songs to seven. That’s after Greece, Belgium, Slovenia and Spain all conducted national finals to determine their winners. But can any of the new entries best Luxembourg’s Laura Thorn, who won our poll last week, from the top of the podium? That’s for you to decide.
Poll: What’s your favourite Eurovision 2025 act so far?
Greece: Klavdia with “Asteromata”
On Thursday, Greece’s EthnikosTelikos — the country’s first national selection in a decade — resulted in fan favourite Klavdia winning with her Greek-language ballad “Asteromata.” She’s got the voice, but many fans worry she does not yet have the staging.
Belgium: Red Sebastian with “Strobe Lights”
On Saturday, Belgium crowned fan favourite Red Sebastian in a landslide. His techno-rave song “Strobe Lights” earned more than four times as many televote points as its nearest rival, and twice as many jury points. The act comes with some very high-impact staging.
Slovenia: Klemen with “How Long Do We Have Left”
He’s a well-known singer, presenter, and even a former host of Slovenia’s national national final. And on Saturday Klemen became a Eurovision 2025 competitor after winning EMA 2025 with his song “How Long Do We Have Left.” During the heartfelt ballad, in which he sings about his wife’s struggle with an auto-immune disease, he briefly sang upside down.
Spain: Melody with “Esa Diva”
Her song is called THAT DIVA. And Melody proved she was both diva and queen as she literally sat on a throne (and even did a viral helicopter motion with her hair to bring it all home) during the final of Benidorm Fest. As ever, passionate fans are divided over the result barking either “Slay!” or “Eurovision cliché!”
So who is your favourite? Vote in our poll and let us know. You can vote for as many acts as you’d like, but you can only vote ONE time. Be sure to tick the box next to each song you want to support before hitting submit. Then let us know how you voted in the comments section.
Ukraine
Albania is the one
Still more songs would be announce but hopefully another country rather than Sweden and Ukraine would be in top5 this year.
I didn’t like the songs of Ukraine’s preselection, by the way
15% of the fans think Esa Diva is the best so far. Must be Spanish fans. I still remember “ROSA FOR THE WONNING!” back in 2002.
None of them have winner vibes in my book. Estonia and Latvia better choose wisely.
Off topic, just heard the news on BBC , Putin wants to establish Intervision as competitor to Eurovision. It will held In September in Russia
I heard this a couple of years back and thought they had already done it?
Nice songs, but none of them is the winner so far.
my fav so far is Luxembourge (love carefree songs)
The Slovenian and Greek entries have such heart and soul. People are being ridiculously harsh over Slovenia, as far as I’m concerned, his song is one of the most beautiful and touching so far.
I agree. Slovenia is my fav, and Greece is kind of tied number one for me. Two beautiful songs
It reminds me of Dons last year but hits a little different to me. If Dons could qualify, I think this is in with a shot with the songs we have so far.
None! At this point looks like not going to get even better.
tbh Slovenia is the only one i like so far
I feel like this year’s Eurovision is shaping up to be a total snoozefest—no buzz, no hype, just straight-up “meh” vibes. Feels like the perfect setup for Israel to swoop in and snatch the win… unless Italy comes through with some magic to save us all.
“Shaping up to be a total snoozefest.” That’s what everyone says each year, but when the actual contest happens. That opinion suddenly takes a 180.
Exactly! After a few songs you always get the melodramatic responses that it is the worst Eurovision year ever. Judge Eurovision in May.
That’s a bit premature with more than 30 songs to come…
So funny to read that comment. It’s about time that Eurovision Song Contest goes back to be a song contest and not a circus.
It’s also sad, with the negativity and assuming that if Italy wins it’s for its quality but if others wins, it’s due to circumstances of others being worse… Also ironic per that comment about “snooze” that Italy indeed often brings quiet emotional ballads and specifically plenty among SanRemo competitors each year, which as you said for quality instead of the usual ESC circus, why I also love Italy.
Feels like a perfect setup to make more bitter conspiracy jealous comments. BTW huge TRUE SanRemo fan here and general Italian music. Yet to accommodate the “logic” applied to anything’s possible – it just might feel to others like a perfect setup for the routinely hyped Italy, or Sweden, Ukraine… let’s hope that instead of those usual pre-judgments, Israel and all countries will simply bring magic, quality songs, so that the winner will be worthy instead of a mediocare Italian song for example, music lover.
Spain is by far the worst, outdated, almost ridiculous. It would be a crear NQ, if it was not a Big 5 country.
It gives me 2000’s Gloria Trevi vibes. It’s not bad like bad-bad, it’s just…not Eurovision 2025.
Absolutely correct !
Unlike last year with Joost, Baby L and Maria S I don’t think we have a fan favourite yet. So far I like Luxemburg, Greece, Spain and i also think Nina Zizic has a beautiful voice, but the song needs more oomph. Belgium: he seems very kind and his falsetto is great, but the song doesn’t grab me… (a matter of taste)
I think we were spoilt last year with some of the fan favourites coming so much earlier. So far we have some good/very good songs but I’m waiting for some songs that the target more for me. There are some in the national finals still to come that could do that for me if they win. Still too this early year.
the more songs get released, the more is it likely that zjerm will get a top 10 result
This doesn’t bode well – so far! Bland, bland, bland … Belgium, Luxembourg, Slovenia dodgy vocals … with no support of recorded backing vocals Luxembourg and Belgium would have been total disasters … what else … never mind! I suppose Greece is the only glimmer of hope – not my cup of tea, but not bad!
This is a disgrace, I recommend to have a controle of your ears. Maybe you have a real health problem if you say dodgy vocals about Red Sebastian. You don’t like dissonant vocals, that’s fine, but never tell such a lie. Some people shall I never understand, but even it is not your cup of tea, good music still is good music, what genre it may be. If it is classical, jazz, country, pop, rave, funk, … . Tomorrowland is not your cup of tea? No heart feelings, me neither, but there are every year several tens of thousands people… Read more »
Good music is always good music.
But Belgiums entry is not good music
Eh … lower vocals … no, no, no … not good enough.
1.Bel
2.Spa
3.Gre
4.Lux
5.Alb
6.Mne
7.Slo
I don t see Montenegro and Slovenia in final.
Alb ania, Greece and Luxembourg are the best 3 right now
Luxembourg best of a bad bunch.
What is it with the start of the season always being weak every year?
This is Zjerm’s year.
Ich Komme by Erika Vikman
Turbo zurka by Mimi Mercedez. These 2 girls could bring wacky entries onto esc stage! Hope they make it.
For me it’s Greece so far. Head and shoulders above the others. I can see the potential of a couple of the other songs, but the Greek entry is sublime. Not saying its a winner, but currently it leads the pack for me (and for the public who are using the My Eurovision app). Sadly Slovenia is forgetful and bland. Montenegro just isn’t competitive enough. Spain picked something that’s giving ‘Zorra’ vibes. Belgium just agressively threw every emotion and noise in to a blender and went hell for leather with a club banger that goes well with poppers (and perhaps… Read more »
Down with poppers
Down with heavier stuff
We can say that, but not A l b a n i a
Okay
“zorra” is way better than whatever “esa diva” is
Why can’t we write Al ba nia’s name in the forum without entering the moderation for approval?
Good question!!!
Perhaps they don’t want them to win?
Actually none so far.
Greece ???
Zjerm & Asteromata
YES
GREECE/BELGIUM/SPAIN
I can guarantee none of these will win . Either plain dull or just old fashioned some of the other songs were better in semis or Spain , Belgium and Slovenia. Hoping there’s a lot better to come.
100%
42%, I’d say
Spain is so cringe worthy with that woman who is so over the top , they did have a couple of ladies that did know how to compose themselves, however , Melody was like a docker from Naples
You’re utterly charming!
Really. You’ll have to post an image of a Docker from Naples having not seen one!
I feel more over the top Loreen and indeed she won. I’m not a big fan of Melody, but I think this performance is being taken too harshly.

4 Dobrodošli
Slovenia is not competitive but I was really touched. Greece is superb
Doesnt that make it competitive? Isnt music about being touched?
No clear favourite but if I have to choose
Luxemburg, I like the nostalgic feeling.
I agree, just because it’s retro or nostalgic doesn’t mean its bad. I find the quality of the majority of songs these days lacking substance, hooks, melody and talent. There’s too much energy spent on image and presentation and not enough on the music.
People have been saying that for DECADES, to be fair
Lacking substance – that1s exactly it! That’s why Nemo won last year, I belive!
I LOVE Spain song and Greece..Not all Belgium
I like them all. It is a good year. Not head over heels for any song though.
Zjerm is the best
Definitely Belgium … #HatersGonnaHate
He has the whole package: good staging potential, voice, song, energy, wow factor, originality, personality, charisma
Vocals are good but the song isn’t catchy at all…
For me it certainly is.
His voice is very weak, but his falsettos are good.
Greece has been on repeat for me since it came out on Spotify!
Greece… and only Greece for now :-/
Luxembourg is my favourite so far followed by Spain and Greece
Only Belgium
Does anyone else think Red sings really badly live?
No, I heard him live yesterday, vocals are fine. But the strong itself isn’t very strong, it needs a better hook.
Excuse me?! His vocals were on point. He was above everyone that competed on Benidorm Fest…
He is not a great singer, his voice is nothing extraordinary but his falsetto is good.
Zjerm and Luxembourg for me so far, I am not allowed to write the name of Zjerm’s country here since days…
Belgium and Greece are good too, but I prefer Alb and Lux.
So far, Zjerm still hold a special place in the list. Everything here comes together to excel in the competition : orchestration, representation, lyrics and live vocals, attitude on stage… Shkodra Elektronike are hooking many to their cause next May. I think it has Ukraine 2021, Serbia 2022, Belgium 2023 or Ireland 2024 written all over it, maybe even more.
they are all fine, but none of them is great
Belgium and it’s not even close!
Sadly the quality is quite low so far 🙁
since last night…
Belgium and it’s not even close.
How do you select: “disappointingly, none of them”?
You simply don’t vote!
Zjerm is my favorite. Its unique and it stands out from the rest and by far i think.
Totally agree with you
Me too
I used to be salty a long time that Elvana didn’t win as I loved Carnaval, but I learned to love and appreciate Zjerm more as time has passed. It’s authentic, unique and honest.
