Eurovision 2023: Top 37 by Weekly Streams (YouTube & Spotify) & Qualifying Odds - 8/5/2023

Here is the ranking of the entries at the Eurovision Song Contest 2023 in Liverpool according to the number of streams on Spotify and YouTube over the past week (May 1-7). I'm only tracking the streams over a particular week and not the total streams, as I feel like this is a better measure of the current popularity of each entry. Also, there are other channels on YouTube that are tracking total streams. Accurate as of May 8th, 2023.

The past week's streams were taken into consideration for this ranking. For Spotify, I'm including both original versions and revamps. For YouTube, I am tracking over 170 videos at the moment (multiple per entry) and these include:
Official music videos
Official lyric videos
National Selection performances
Official audio versions

Regarding YouTube, I only include videos from the following types of channels:
Official Eurovision channel
Official Artist channel
Official Broadcaster or National Selection channels
Official Record Company channel
YouTube generated audio versions of songs

That means no fan-made videos, no remixes, no alternative versions and no other live performances are taken into account.

I've also included qualification odds by semi-final just for reference.

Rankings by streams need to be taken with a grain of salt. First of all, the popularity of streaming services varies greatly among the European countries. Secondly, entries that have been broadcast on big national finals will tend to have reached a much wider audience than others would have had already, hence skewing the results. Lastly, clearly countries with bigger populations will have more listeners for their entries, so it's useful to factor these into your interpretation of the data.

But anyway, what do you think? What are the streams telling us? Let me know in the comments below! And don't forget to subscribe!
