Google has predicted the winner for the Eurovision Song Contest correctly in the last two years, first with Alexander Rybak (Norway) in 2009 and again in 2010 with Lena (Germany), based on Google search data. So let’s have a look at Google’s Top 10 for this year’s ESC:
Rank – Participant – Score
1 – Germany – Lena – 167
2 – Ireland – Jedward – 167
3 – Russia – Alexej Vorobjov – 163
4 – Greece – Loucas Yiorkas feat. Stereo Mike – 150
5 – Azerbaijan Ell/Nikki – 110
6 – Denmark – A Friend In London – 77
7 – France – Amaury Vassili – 74
8 – Romania – Hotel FM – 67
9 – Finland – Paradise Oskar – 60
10 – Hungary – Kati Wolf – 55

Do you agree with Google’s forecast? It’s interesting that everyone sees Lena at least in the Top 3, considering that she has already won last year. Why do you think that is? Is it the song or even the fact that she’s crazy enough to compete the second year in a row? Who do you want to win? Vote here!
