Eurovision 2025 Early Thoughts - Spain


 Esa Diva - Melody

Spain is the living proof that money cannot buy happiness. Benidorm is giving less and less every year that goes by and Chanel proved to be a fluke.

This year some changes were made in the structure but instead of having a better overall package we were left with a number of entries that were all set up for Eurovision fail.

 Spain is sending the same entry they have been sending the last 25 years. 'Esa Diva' is twenty years late in the party to have an impact and things will be tough for them with both constituencies.

Melody is a charismatic performer that could be acknowledged by the jurors, but she is missing a song and the only thing I could really hope for Spain is that they finally learn the lesson and change everything in their selection process and the acts that participate in Benidorm.

What do I see in my crystal ball?

Spain fighting hard to avoid last place and finishing with a single digit overall score. 25th-26th.

Televoting Potential: 3/10

Jury Potential: 3/10

Staging Potential: 6/10

Momentum: 3/10

My Opinion: 4/10

Total: 19/50


What the fair winning chance % would be?

0.001%

Best case scenario:

Top-15

Worst case scenario:

Last Place

Pre-Contest estimated points:

F: J: 0-10 - PV: 0-15 - Tot: 0-25
