May 12, 20169 yr Terrible year for the Nordics. I wonder if that will help or hinder Frans. Well... (overall/televote) 12s from all of the other four surely. Maybe. I'm so pleased Georgia has gotten through with a non-safe entry for once, maybe that'll enable them to experiment in more than every other year.
May 12, 20169 yr 01 Lithuania / Donny Montell - I've Been Waiting For This Night / 9/10 02 Australia / Dami Im - The Sound Of Silence / 9/10 03 Bulgaria / Poli Genova - If Love Was A Crime / 9/10 04 Norway / Agnete - Icebreaker / 7.5/10 05 Belgium / Laura Tesoro - What's The Pressure 7.5/10 06 Serbia / Sanja Vučić ZAA - Goodbye (Shelter) / 7/10 07 Belarus / IVAN - Help You Fly / 7/10 08 Latvia / Justs - Heartbeat / 7/10 09 Georgia / Nika Kocharov & Young Georgian Lolitaz - Midnight Gold 7/10 10 Macedonia / Kaliopi - Dona / 6.5/10 -------------------------------------------------------------------- 11 Israel / Hovi Star - Made Of Stars 6.5/10 12 Poland / Michael Szpak - Color Of Your Life / 6/10 13 Switzerland / Rykka - The Last Of Our Kind / 6/10 14 Denmark / Lighthouse X - Soldiers Of Love / 6/10 15 Ireland / Nicky Byrne - Sunlight 5.5/10 16 Slovenia / ManuElla - Blue And Red 5.5/10 17 Albania / Eneda Tarifa - Fairytale 4.5/10 18 Ukraine / Jamala - 1944 4/10 ANOTHER set of great results. Norway is the only particularly loss for me and even that was quite a mess, I realise. So relieved for Donny and actually glad for Georgia, which I imagine most on the site won't.
May 12, 20169 yr I'm disappointed for Slovenia as I really liked it,poor Nicky for Ireland but it was eexpected
May 12, 20169 yr poor Norway :( Mostly happy with the result though, yay for Georgia doing it against the odds as well as the obvious faves!
May 12, 20169 yr Holy shit did I just predict all 10 correctly? As well as the 3rd envelope thing. Only it was 2nd :lol:
May 12, 20169 yr Great results! Lithuania is the only qualifier that I wasn't feeling to any degree, but it was far from the worst on show. Macedonia and that iconic whistle note will be missed in the final. </3 Chuffed for Bulgaria/Australia/Ukraine. :cheer: Edited May 12, 20169 yr by Noahspike
May 12, 20169 yr Ew at Poland going through, other than that, a pretty good result. It makes it a lot more open, I think. It could literally be one of about 5 countries that could win, imo. Really enjoyed that semi! SO happy that Donny got through. Absolutely brilliant performance. I think the winner will be between: Russia, Ukraine, Sweden, France & Australia - and out of those I'd love for one of Australia or Sweden to win. Would love for Latvia to do something, but I doubt they will. Also ecstatic that Bulgaria got through!
May 12, 20169 yr Gutted for Slovenia as usual but it was always going to be a massive long shot for them, it has to be something truely life changing for them to go through.
May 12, 20169 yr Gonna copy Bré's BJSC qualifying run over to what we're on now with the countries who take part in the semis for how many finals they've made in a row. For a bit of geek stats. Russia - 17 - Azerbaijan - 9 - Hungary - 6 Sweden - 6 - Armenia - 4 - Austria - 3 Poland - 3 - Australia - 2 Georgia - 2 Serbia - 2 Belgium - 2 Latvia - 2 Israel - 2 Lithuania - 2 Cyprus - 2 - Netherlands - 1 Croatia - 1 Czech Republic - 1 Malta - 1 Bulgaria - 1 Ukraine - 1 (would be 13 not counting the skipped year) And in the non-qualifier zone: Macedonia - 4 - Moldova - 3 Ireland - 3 - Finland - 2 San Marino - 2 Belarus - 2 Switzerland - 2 Iceland - 2 Denmark - 2 - Greece - 1 (15) Norway - 1 (3) Montenegro - 1 (2) Slovenia - 1 (2) Estonia - 1 (1) Albania - 1 (1) Bosnia & Herzegovina - 1 (n/a, was 12) Quite a lot of countries on 2 non-qualifiers, eek. Brackets is the streak they've just lost. Macedonia definitely coming up for worst country record ever, take out 2012 and it's woeful. Poor Kaliopi indeed.
May 12, 20169 yr Author UKRAINE WAS EVERYTHING TONIGHT!! WINNER! I got goosebumps, such an emotional and captivating performance :heart:
May 12, 20169 yr Here are the results from my scorecard tonight! 10.0 http://www.eurovision.tv/img/upload/flags/mini/Bulgaria.png Bulgaria: Poli Genova - If Love Was A Crime 09.5 http://www.eurovision.tv/img/upload/flags/mini/au.png Australia: Dami Im - Sound Of Silence 09.5 http://www.eurovision.tv/img/upload/flags/mini/Lithuania.png Lithuania: Donny Montell - I've Been Waiting For This Night 09.0 http://www.eurovision.tv/img/upload/flags/mini/Serbia.png Serbia: Sanja Vučić ZAA - Goodbye (Shelter) 09.0 http://www.eurovision.tv/img/upload/flags/mini/Belgium.png Belgium: Laura Tesoro - What's The Pressure 08.5 http://www.eurovision.tv/img/upload/flags/mini/Ukraine.png Ukraine: Jamala - 1944 08.0 http://www.eurovision.tv/img/upload/flags/mini/Latvia.png Latvia: Justs - Heartbeat 08.0 http://www.eurovision.tv/img/upload/flags/mini/Israel.png Israel: Hovi Star - Made Of Stars 08.0 http://www.eurovision.tv/img/upload/flags/mini/Norway.png Norway:Agnete - Icebreaker 07.5 http://www.eurovision.tv/img/upload/flags/mini/Georgia.png Georgia: Nika Kocharov and Young Georgian Lolitaz - Midnight Gold 07.0 http://www.eurovision.tv/img/upload/flags/mini/FYR_Macedonia.png Macedonia: Kaliopi - Dona 07.0 http://www.eurovision.tv/img/upload/flags/mini/Slovenia.png Slovenia: ManuElla - Blue And Red 06.5 http://www.eurovision.tv/img/upload/flags/mini/Denmark.png Denmark: Lighthouse X - Soldiers Of Love 06.5 http://www.eurovision.tv/img/upload/flags/mini/Ireland.png Ireland: Nicky Byrne - Sunlight 06.5 http://www.eurovision.tv/img/upload/flags/mini/Switzerland.png Switzerland: Rykka - The Last Of Our Kind 06.5 http://www.eurovision.tv/img/upload/flags/mini/Albania.png Albania: Eneda Tarifa - Fairytale 06.0 http://www.eurovision.tv/img/upload/flags/mini/Poland.png Poland: Michał Szpak - Color Of Your Life 04.5 http://www.eurovision.tv/img/upload/flags/mini/Belarus.png Belarus: IVAN - Help You Fly Very very very pleasing results and I wasn't too mad with Poland qualifying early as it proved the diaspora voting was having an impact on this semi and therefore Lithuania should be safe which they were! Biggest surprise for me was Georgia, absolutely fantastic camerawork and on par with the amazing camerawork of Cyprus and Armenia - all 3 of these (and Lithuania) were stage directed by Sacha-Jean Baptiste I believe so fantastic work from her. So pleased for Poli, I think the staging did let it down a bit but the quality of the songs thankfully shined through. Very pleased Sanja decided to go for a different note at the key change as she'd missed the original version of that note in previous rehearsals and it paid off. Dami's song is still very average but her live performance lifted it so much as I expected and I thought she could provide a battle to Russia although her half draw put a little dent in those chances. However I think Dami has much more chance of victory than Jamala even with the worse draw, the latter just isn't as accessible despite me liking her performance very much. Thanks SVT for leaving 2 of my big 3 pre-semi favourites to the last 2 envelopes but thankfully all 3 made it in the end. Shame for Norway but the momentum was completely lost over the past week and it isn't too surprising as I had Norway and Macedonia as the most vulnerable of my top 10 predictions with Poland and Georgia most likely to take their spaces so glad I was correct there!
May 12, 20169 yr Gutted for Slovenia as usual but it was always going to be a massive long shot for them, it has to be something truely life changing for them to go through. Now I was a FAN of Round and Round but LIFECHANGING is a STRETCH!
May 12, 20169 yr Anywhere where I can watch this right now? iPlayer don't have it and it's stressing me out. I regret not being here at 8 so much.
