Agree that Georgia is the only one that feels like an absolute no hoper. Not convinced Montenegro really stand much of a chance either.

Belgium rarely catch a break so I think they might lose out too

Semi 2 is even worse.

It's terrible but at least has Delta.

This staging is bad, why does it look like they're hosting in a restaurant.

Bloody hell, no underwear.

First country is Greece 🇬🇷

Wow. Belgium.

So far:

Greece 🇬🇷

Finland 🇫🇮

Belgium 🇧🇪

Sweden 🇸🇪

Moldova 🇲🇩

Not to be for San Marino and Boy George.

So so so relieved for Felicia! She needs to absolutely BRING IT for the final.

No real shocks there - there were 6 I thought were at risk and the 5 eliminations were all among them, Belgium being the one who made it.

Not sure I’ve seen the first four in the running order all qualify before.

That's pretty expected as qualifiers go, all the essentials got through and I reckon Belgium must have snuck in at 10th over Estonia.

19 pages in 2025 vs 6 pages this year. Pretty self explanatory when it comes to the quality I guess x

Pretty expected results (based on recap videos I watched some time ago).

It happened in 2024 semifinal 1.

good results minus losing Montenegro, we were never getting a Greece or Israel NQ so that's fine

You know what, sure. I know the absolute joy of having one's country finally send a song in a style that you're behind and those connections are some of the best things about this contest, very glad it's gone through tonight for you and the rest of Serbia.

Listen this version. Its even better.

Was travelling yesterday, so could not see it. Happy to see Sweden through. A pity that Estonia did not make it to the final.

I caught a bit of this last night and my initial reaction was that Greece definitely doesn't scream winner to me at all now. Big televote fave sure but the performance was a little flat imo.

Finland, yeah I can kinda see that as a winner now after not getting the hype initially. But nah, think Israel has this in the bag unfortunately. It's a very accomplished performance with a big vocal so will do better with juries along with the onslaught of public support.

Delta Goodrem to save the day with a shock public vote!
