May 26, 201213 yr 01 // United Kingdom - That was really good, an interesting ballad I think - and he seems to quite effortlessly sing it (not entirely sure if he got that last note perfect, but he still did a really good job). I loved the staging, and think we can be proud of that entry personally. 8.5/10 02 // Hungary - That's A LOT better I remembered it being from the semis, but actually felt really good and anthemic. Maybe it's just final excitement, but I genuinely think it's just me warming to what is actually a very good song. 8/10 03 // Albania - Now that I know what's coming, I'm in absolute stitches. But, on a genuine note - it's absolutely atrocious. Her shouting is unbearable, I don't believe it's technically singing, I actually think it is shouting. There's just barely even a song there. 1 point for it making me laugh throughout. 1/10 04 // Lithuania - At least with Albania, as awful as it is, I can understand that's it different. But how did this qualify? It's just awful, Josh Dubovie type awful. I could actually imagine him doing this, although that still might be harsh to Josh. Just awful, 'kinda disco' sorta thing. 2/10 05 // Bosnia & Herzegovina - The comment 'this is pleasant but rather boring' by Cal sums this up perfectly. 4/10 06 // Russia - I realise that it won't win, but I really would love it to after that. It's the only song so far that has really caused a reaction from my parents - it is just such good fun. And, the way that short 'not many teeth' granny waddles up to the get the food from another granny, makes me cry with laughter. LOVE RUSSIA. 9/10 07 // Iceland - For all the hype it's getting on this site, I want it to be better than that. It's harmless enough, and better than I remember from the first semi, but it's all a bit boring. Don't really know what else to say, cos it doesn't really induce that much of a reaction from me. 5/10 08 // Cyprus - For me, no other song comes anywhere close to being as good as this, this week. It's very RedOne, quite On The Floor, but I love what J-Lo is doing right now, and I adore this. Such good fun, so catchy, amazing. Hope it doesn't do a Rockefeller Street on me, and gets Top 10 at least. 10/10 09 // France - Listening to this again, I totally get why TomKay loves this, it's got him written all over it. Finding this song really weird, like the structure of the song seems a bit odd. It was enjoyable, and she's got good vocals, I liked the melody, the whistles. Better than I remembered it being, but the last time I heard it, I had just woke up. 7.5/10 10 // Italy - I liked that, but I'm surprised that's one of the favourites to win (not that any favourites will matter, let's face it, Loreen has it wrapped up). It was very Amy-ish, I guess, but not a rip-off of her. I enjoyed that, good fun, something quite different too but genuinely good. 7.5/10
May 26, 201213 yr Estonian entry doesnt do to much for me, i wonder though could it surprise us all and do much better than expected?

May 26, 201213 yr Have to admit, the Estonian entry has grown on me since seeing Ott perform this at the semi finals.
May 26, 201213 yr Estonia - 6/10 I actually found that to be one of the better ballads I've heard tonight Russia - 9/10 Cyprus - 8/10 Italy - 7/10 United Kingdom - 6/10 Estonia - 6/10 France - 6/10 Iceland - 6/10 Hungary - 6/10 Lithuania - 5/10 Bosnia & Herzegovina - 4/10 Albania - 3/10 Edited May 26, 201213 yr by C.W
May 26, 201213 yr Estonia - Such a rip off of 'Without You' but far more boring. Not for me. United Kingdom - 8/10 Hungary - 6/10 Albania - 1/10 Lithuania - 3/10 Bosnia & Herzegovina - 5/10 Russia - 7/10 Iceland - 4/10 Cyprus - 8/10 France - 7/10 Italy - 9/10 Estonia - 4/10
May 26, 201213 yr 01 | United Kingdom - 5/10 [The song itself is so boring, only the last part saved it from being a 1-2/10]. 02 | Hungary - 6/10 [sounded better than in the Semis imo] 03 | Albania - 6.5/10 [i only award it this high for her 'power vocal' parts. Without it, the song is boring]. 04 | Lithuania - 5/10 05 | Bosnia & Herzegovina - 7/10 06 | Russia - 10/10 [LOVE this song, LOVE this performance. I want this to WIN]. 07 | Iceland - 5/10 [i thought it was boring but a decent song] 08 | Cyprus - 11/10 [My favourite entry. Love the performance and her hair tonight suits her a lot better than the Semis]. 09 | France - 9/10 [Love it, however coming after Cyprus does it no justice as Ivi Adamou's La La Love is much better than Anggun's Echo]. 10 | Italy - 7.5/10 [Not my style, decent song however and performance]. 11 | Estonia - 3/10 [bORING]
May 26, 201213 yr 01. UK - 4/10 Good vocals overall but the song is simply boringl. Sounds like it could have been written 50 years ago 02. Hungary - 5/10 Decent lite pop-rock. Nothing special 03. Albania - 7/10 Not a song you would expect to hear on Eurovisio and that;s exactly what I like about it. Very experimental! 04. Lithuania - 3/10 Boring disco song. Nothing we haven't seen 1001 times before on Eurovision 05. Bosnia & Herzegovina - 6/10 I like this, epexially the folky elements 06. Russia - 7.5/10 cheesy as hell but (I pressume) it's meant to be a joke and I think it succeeds in that. 07. Iceland - 5.5/10 OK-ish ballad, nothing spectacular 08. Cyprus - 9/10 Definitely the song I enjoyed the most so far. Fun, fresh and full of enerrgy (even with her vocals a bit too low) 09. Italy - 6.5/10 The song is not bad but everything about their performance screams AMY WINEHOSE. Totally unoriginal - from her moves, to her outfit, voice, backing vocalist, even some of the lyrics 10. Estonia - 8.5/10 The ballad I enjoyed the most so far + great vocals!
May 26, 201213 yr There is nothing special about Norwegian's entry it just sounds a bit of a mess in places.
