Latest update : May 9th

This year "All Kinds Of Everything" is doing a new style of poll where visitors can rate the songs competing in the 2006 Eurovision Song Contest. In previous years there was a simple poll where people voted for their favourite entry but unfortunately this can become a national popularity contest rather than an accurate assessment of the entries. English speaking countries and those with a large presence of the internet tend to do far better.

For 2006 visitors to this website will be asked at random, their opinion of a entry, which they can rate from 5 (Great) down to 1 (Awful). If you have rated that song in the previous 48 hours, your second vote won't count. In that way I hope to have a reasonably accurate assessment of all the songs in competition. Also there will be no need to re-set the poll every time a new song is chosen. The only time I will re-set the scoring on any entry is when a major change to the song is made, for example switching the lyrics to English. Every Friday I will do a tally of all the votes that have been cast for each song and rank the entries based on a mathematical formula. This will produce a "satisfaction rating" for each song. Please note that this poll is only for fun, and to give you a view of what other visitors to this site think of the entries. 

Update : 

For the last pre-Athens update to the poll, there's another change at the top spot. Bosnia's entry ""Lelja" sung by Hari Mata Hari re-claims the top spot,.Germany drop to #2 arfer two weeks at the top. Previouys numbers ones were Norway (1 week), Belgium (2), Romania (3) and  Greece (1) and Bosnia-Herzegovina also had one previous week at #1. T

There are some interesting change lower down. Turkey's late run on the poll continues and it isn't only visitors from Turkey that are supported Sibel Tuzun and "Superstar". The big reverse this week is suffered by Sweden which declines from #12 to #27. This is in marked contrast to it's growing support with the bookmakers.
