A bad omen? – Diepresse.com
At the Eurovision Song Contest, participants with high start numbers have won in recent years. That could Schmälern the victory chances for JJ.
« Seven simple steps to win the Eurovision » lists the « New York Times » in the run -up to the 2025 song. And advised against lighting a piano like Austria’s candidate The Makemakes 2015 in Vienna. However, the participants have no influence on one thing: the start number. JJ from Austria, who is considered a co -favorite for victory, has now been assigned number 9. This could reduce his chances, shows a look into the past: except for a winner, all winners of the past 20 years have had at least a double -digit start number. 13 were only in the second half of the music competition.
In this respect, the now fixed final start number 9 would be a bad omen for JJ with his counter ballad « Wasted Love ». In addition, since the allegedly strongest competitors Sweden (start number 23), the Netherlands (12), Finland (13) or France (24) received higher places.
But there is also an exception to this « rule »: in 2023 the Swede Loreen appeared with the start number 11 and confidently won with her song « Tattoo ».
In contrast to the Finnish Trio Kaj, which competes for Sweden: « Singing English », the newspaper advises a tip from the « New York Times ». The Italian band Måneskin, who won in 2021, may see it differently. (Apa/her)
