May 22, 200817 yr I'm happy with these getting through: Sweden Iceland Denmark Ukraine Georgia Not bothered but can see why they qualified: Portugal Albania Turkey What were they thinking: Croatia Latvia
May 22, 200817 yr I'm annoyed now, that Malta is not in the final Martin, I think you need this to calm you down: :lol: http://images.tabulas.com/37892/l/vodka.jpg
May 22, 200817 yr no Bulgaria, Switzerland and Czech Republic :( Although Switzerland and CR didnt sound too well live
May 22, 200817 yr THIS IS MY LIFEE!!! :cheer: SENHORA DO MAR!!! :w00t: Good results all round, aside from Croatia and Latvia.
May 22, 200817 yr I'm so happy Iceland got through!! :yahoo: and Sweden and Ukraine too. and portugal and Latvia really deserved to get through as well ^_^ I was surprized by Denmark to be honest(in a good way) but that was nothing to.....Croatia, what the hell? :huh: Seriously......I'm so confuzzled about that one. Malta or Switzerland( :o ) would have been far worthier qualifiers.
May 22, 200817 yr So happy that Sweden and Iceland got through. A bit surprising that all five Nordic Countries (Finland, Sweden, Iceland, Norway, and Denmark) made it into the final. Glad for Denmark and Latvia. IMO Croatia and Albania shouldn't have qualifiad and instead of those two it should have been Switzerland and Bulgaria. This two semifinal thing with only the participating countries being allowed to vote was a great thing for the ESC TBH. The neighbourly/diaspora voting wasn't so rampant and countries such as Macedonia and Slovenia which have qualified with poor tracks solely to neighbourly voting were shut out this time. Thou too bad that since all 43 countries are allowed to vote in the final (instead of the 25 that qualified - something I think would have been better) we will see Eastern Europe zooming very high and great/good tracks (such as from the Nordic countries) will have very difficult time.
May 22, 200817 yr Well 4 out 5 of my predictions are in the final Sweden, Ukraine, Iceland and Georgia But I think on the night, it be between Sweden, Ukraine, Poland and Greece
May 22, 200817 yr Author I fought off the Heroes brigade and managed to watch it all! :cheer: Even if it was ruined by a ginger t*** who insisted on repeating every minute how much of a waste of money Eurovision apparently was but whatever :manson: I was VERY surprised at Croatia's performance, take out the old man and that was a great song there :o Also shocked that Bulgaria didn't get through, although I reckon their key voters wouldn't have been watching tonight :( That last envelope was ridiculously tense, I was worried that Macedonia would get through instead of Portugal after what was (sorry Boyan!) an awful performance from the backing singers :( I'm also surprised and pleased that all of the Nordic countries are through to the final for the first time since 2000! :cheer: David and I were just talking about this earlier, I nearly fell off my seat when Denmark got through, although that was obviously the jury vote :heehee: Iceland and Sweden = :heart: Albania was good, and I may as well just go out and place my bets now because after tonight's performance, I am in no doubt whatsoever that Ukraine will win this thing :cheer:
May 22, 200817 yr I can't believe Bulgaria did not go through tonight. The rap let it down at the start of the track, take it out, it would have done better.
May 22, 200817 yr I'm glad Bulgaria stalled, very shocked at Latvia though. It reeked of Scooch tbh, so I thought it was heading for a complete nosedive. I guess it was far less camp and cringeworthy though.
May 22, 200817 yr I will stop watching ESC :ph34r: (ok it's just my first reaction, don't worry :P ) I was sure that Iceland, Sweden, Turkey, Ukraine and Latvia ( :arrr: ) will qualify. I hoped that Georgia will too. I don't mind that Denmark is in the final and maybe the Portugal song is so strong and full with emotions (ok...maybe just the refrain)...but I understand. But Croatia and Albania...??? I'm so sad about Malta and Bulgaria (and of course Hungary...but I counted on it) :cry: :( :cry: btw for me Ukraine was the best tonight. Iceland gave a very well opening for the show...then I was frightened of Charlotte's plastic UFO face :manson: but then came Ani and blowed away everyone. She was pretty good (altough she made some mistakes). Go Ukraine :cheer:
May 22, 200817 yr then I was frightened of Charlotte's plastic UFO face :manson: That's funny, my younger brother said he thinks Charlotte looks like an alien.
May 22, 200817 yr Oh and Charlotte Perrelli was AMAZING tonight. an I the only one not seing the amazingness in her or that song ?? :S
May 22, 200817 yr That's funny, my younger brother said he thinks Charlotte looks like an alien. LOL one person watching her tonight with me thought it was a MAN :lol:
