Definitely the least tragic semi finals since 2015, so happy Norway didn't get lost in Verona!

i’m so ecstatic that albania made it i can’t even describe it

I honestly can’t predict this at all :’) I have a sneaky feeling that The Netherlands won’t win. If I had to put a £1,000 bet on who I thought would win, I’d still go for The Netherlands but would be tempted to put it on Australia too :hmm:

Gutted Moldova and Romania didn't get through, not keen on the Norwegian and the Sweden entries this year. At least the Netherlands and Malta are in there. Now I'm thinking The Netherlands are going to have a runaway winning track, I do love it, and it really stands out. Few surprises in the final though North Macedonia and Russia they hardly ticked any boxes for me

 

As for the UK, I reckon we are doomed in the bottom 5 by the end of the night.

Rank:

1 Sweden 'Too Late For Love' 8/10

2 Switzerland 'She Got Me' 8/10

3 Norway 'Spirit in the Sky' 7.5/10

4 Malta 'Chameleon' 7/10

5 Azerbaijan 'Truth' 7/10

6 Russia 'Scream' 6.5/10

7 Netherlands 'Arcade' 6.5/10

8 Denmark 'Love Is Forever' 6/10

9 North Macedonia 'Proud' 6/10

10 Albania 'Ktheju tokës' 6/10

--

11 Latvia 'That Night' 6/10

12 Croatia 'The Dream' 6/10

13 Moldova 'Stay' 5/10

14 Lithuania 'Run with the Lions' 5/10

15 Romania 'On A Sunday' 5/10

16 Armenia 'Walking Out' 5/10

17 Austria 'Limits' 4/10

18 Ireland '22' 3/10

 

Wow at my top 10 actually being the 10 songs to qualify!! Although this semi wasn't as good as semi 1.

Finally calm enough to write something, was a bit worried for my own country when North Macedonia, Albania and Denmark had been announced. I am so glad KEiiNO made it, and it seemed like the winner of the night? Difficult for me to say. Ireland looked so good tonight, sad it didn't make it. Armenia deservly dnq, that performance were boring. It did the song no justice.

 

I am so happy Europe decided good in both semis say yay yay yay!

 

Voted for Malta and The Netherlands

Baffled by Netherlands being a favourite. I'd put money on Australia.

I still say 'Na na na na' for that shock result in the first semi but overall Europe voted right this year! :P

I dread to think if San Marino win, can't they foot the bill to host it

The difference I’ve always felt there was between Spirit In The Sky and Verona is that the former is so much FUN. Other than laughing at Koit’s face, there was nothing exactly fun or infectious about it.

"Verona" was super catchy! :o

 

San Marino could go left-hand side of the board, perhaps, if the Turks and drunks get behind it!

Must admit I’m quite happy with these results!

No homophobia in this forum please!

Poor Armenia getting flushed out but that’s what happens when you have a pretty strong semi. Otherwise good choices! Congratulations Europe, you didn’t f*ck up.

I'm SHOOK Jonida made it!!! So happy though, those vox *.* No big losses for me, other than that it would have been nice to see Jurjius' face again.

 

This final is really wide open, I don't know if anyone has done enough to topple Duncan with all the hype and the bookies' odds seem pretty decisive, but Kate will give him a run for his money and potentially Chingiz too.

Netherlands have drawn first half - could potentially be very interesting

IIRC Portugal and Austria won from slot 11 and Sweden from slot 10 this decade - or there about - expecting a similar draw for Duncan, if of course Netherlands have won this semi...

Pull thru Kate

Thing is, I think Conchita, Mans and Salvador were probably going to win no matter where they were drawn since they had the most memorable/unique act of the 26, IDK if Duncan is quite on that level but that makes it all the more exciting!

Albani, John and Tamara 1st half too
