Posted May 11, 20232 yr We are back tonight for semi-final two. It is arguably a more open semi. Who do you think will qualify? Who do you think will flop? Pzbiha2Z3zM Semi-final 2 (click the entry to go to their official version)
May 11, 20232 yr Before seeing any performances I think my bottom 6 is: Romania Iceland Greece Georgia San Marino Albania
May 11, 20232 yr From this what i want to see die a death is: Denmark Romania Greece Poland San Marino Albania
May 11, 20232 yr We haven't had a Semifinal this bad in a WHILE. Beyond tragic. I am only excited to hear Georgia... and that's literally it (apart from Cyprus for the eye candy of course!).
May 11, 20232 yr I'll be fine as long as Australia sweep aside the competition (as they should), and I get Albania / Slovenia in. Georgia and Romania are on my wishlist but I fear that especially the latter might be asking too much (still my 3rd fave in this semi, suck it haters - and yes I will concede that that says a few things about this semi's quality but I do really like it) want: 02. 🇦🇲 Brunette - Future Lover 03. 🇷🇴 Theodor Andrei - D.G.T. (Off and On) 05. 🇧🇪 Gustaph - Because of You 07. 🇮🇸 Diljá - Power 10. 🇸🇮 Joker Out - Carpe Diem 11. 🇬🇪 Iru - Echo 13. 🇦🇹 Teya, Salena - Who The Hell Is Edgar? 14. 🇦🇱 Albina & Familja Kelmendi - Duje 15. 🇱🇹 Monika Linkytė - Stay 16. 🇦🇺 Voyager - Promise think: 01. 🇩🇰 Reiley - Breaking My Heart 02. 🇦🇲 Brunette - Future Lover 05. 🇧🇪 Gustaph - Because of You 06. 🇨🇾 Andrew Lambrou - Break a Broken Heart 07. 🇮🇸 Diljá - Power 09. 🇵🇱 Blanka - Solo 10. 🇸🇮 Joker Out - Carpe Diem 13. 🇦🇹 Teya, Salena - Who The Hell Is Edgar? 15. 🇱🇹 Monika Linkytė - Stay 16. 🇦🇺 Voyager - Promise but tbh only certain qualifiers here I think are Australia, Belgium and Lithuania thanks to its accessibility and late slot - even Austria's performance doesn't sound like televote standout, and I'm only like 90% sure on Slovenia. Otherwise many combinations are possible. Only certain NQs are San Marino and sadly Romania, neither have had much love all season and the rehearsals haven't been kind either.
May 11, 20232 yr Theres no universe in which Austria DNQs. It’s a solid bop and they have on point vocals. The rehersal footage looks fab and they went OFF at the pre-parties. Like Pavita I’m backing Cyprus because he’s pretty. His costume designer was clearly hetero tho because there’s far too much fabric
May 11, 20232 yr Austria have given up any hope of televote success in the final by not bringing their video concept to the stage. Still hoping for a top 1o finish though. Austria and Georgia are the only two that I actively seek out to listen to. At least 5 songs worse than Latvia's will qualify 😡 Edited May 11, 20232 yr by Colm
May 11, 20232 yr This result is a terrible semi, I only care about Armenia and Austria both of which should easily be safe I’d have thought. I like a few others, Slovenia, Iceland, Belgium and Lithuania are solid, Australia is ok I guess but meh, or much I’m hugely excited about only Armenia and Austria from my top 10!
May 11, 20232 yr About to watch the dress rehearsal (my second and final live show). Very excited for the show and seeing the staging, less so most of the actual songs. I’m not really bothered who qualifies as long as Austria and Belgium make it out alive, which of course they will. I’d like to see Slovenia, Lithuania and Iceland in too but I can’t imagine the latter will be in the mix.
May 11, 20232 yr based on a listen to the audio Want: Belgium, Poland, Austria, Albania, Australia Don't care but they can fill up the rest of the top 10: Denmark, Cyprus, Iceland, Slovenia, Georgia shame that Albania are a likely NQ but the rest of my top 5 should Q at least
May 11, 20232 yr Again my Wants & Thinks for Semi 2: WANT: 01. Reiley - Breaking My Heart 04. Alika - Bridges 06. Andrew Lambrou - Break a Broken Heart 07. Diljá - Power 08. Victor Vernicos - What They Say 09. Blanka - Solo 10. Joker Out - Carpe Diem 11. Iru - Echo 13. Teya, Salena - Who The Hell Is Edgar? 14. Albina & Familja Kelmendi - Duje THINK: 02. Brunette - Future Lover 04. Alika - Bridges 05. Gustaph - Because of You 06. Andrew Lambrou - Break a Broken Heart 07. Diljá - Power 09. Blanka - Solo 10. Joker Out - Carpe Diem 11. Iru - Echo 13. Teya, Salena - Who The Hell Is Edgar? 15. Monika Linkytė - Stay I think Albania AND Monika are very Jury dependent so it's going to be interesting if either of them survive the televote only of the Semi's... I'm going to say Lithuania over Albania, but depending how the public votes, I wouldn't be surprised to see San Marino get in over one of them...
May 11, 20232 yr My preferred top 10 Poland Armenia Denmark Austria Cyprus Greece Slovenia Australia Estonia San Marino
May 11, 20232 yr Author Want: Austria Albania Lithuania Georgia Estonia Armenia Denmark Slovenia Cyprus Poland ------------- Greece Australia Iceland Belgium San Marino Romania Think: Austria Armenia Slovenia Australia Georgia Lithuania Estonia Cyprus Albania Denmark ---------------- Belgium Iceland Poland Greece Romania San Marino
May 11, 20232 yr Imo: Q: Belgium Austria Australia Lithuania Cyprus Slovenia Armenia Georgia Poland Fighting for 10th with two out: Greece Denmark Estonia Definitely out: Albania Iceland Romania San Marino Not quite sure who I’d expect in from the ‘fighting for 10th’ section, think I’ll say Greece as it has that singer songwriter chart vibe people seem to love but it could just as easily be Denmark.
May 11, 20232 yr PREDICTIONS Denmark 🇩🇰 - DNQ Armenia 🇦🇲 - QUALIFY Romania 🇷🇴 - DNQ Estonia 🇪🇪 - QUALIFY Belgium 🇧🇪 - QUALIFY Cyprus 🇨🇾 - QUALIFY Iceland 🇮🇸 - QUALIFY Greece 🇬🇷 - DNQ Poland 🇵🇱 - QUALIFY Slovenia 🇸🇮 - QUALIFY Georgia 🇬🇪 - QUALIFY San Marino 🇸🇲 - DNQ Austria 🇦🇹 - QUALIFY Albania 🇦🇱 - DNQ Lithuania 🇱🇹 - DNQ Australia 🇦🇺 - QUALIFY Borderline Out: Iceland, Belgium Borderline In: Denmark, Lithuania
May 11, 20232 yr If there is any justice in the world Greece will come last. Ideally I would like the following to qualify: Denmark Iceland Belgium Austria Australia Cyprus Lithuania Poland Georgia Albania However, I think it's more likely to be (in no specific order): Denmark Armenia Belgium Austria Australia Cyprus Lithuania Poland Georgia Slovenia
May 11, 20232 yr Isn't it Greece that had that shocking rehearsal? I presume if his vocals are really as bad as that, unless the public troll vote for him he can't be through, surely? :o
