Norway quite lucky there I think

Hazel is WONDERFUL

Not one but TWO Wicked references, what times we live in

Natalia Gordienko solidifying her place in history! Nobody ever said the note needed to be in tune *.*

Made in Switzerland the best song of the night

Loving the effort to recreate an early 2000s soapstar to popstar vehicle down to the dodgy nocals

Theo looks like an AI creation of an attractive man

Shame the camera f***ed up halfway through

This really stands out in a year of spectacle - it’s a lovely song in its own right but feels like it ticks a lot of boxes to do really well

The staging / lighting is very impressive - it’s just a shame zero thought was given to the song. Good things it’s not a song contest.

I didn’t really care much for that on record but it worked well live - a few dud notes here and there but feels like it will do very well on Saturday

Impressive staging from Albania

San Marino is 30 seconds repeated 6 times, and yet among the best of the night

Someone needed to sit him down many years ago and say “Enough”

I’m struggling to remember an entry that gets everything so wrong - it’s truly a wonder to behold

He’s inventing new notes never heard before

Azerbaijan should be STUDIED - has any country fallen so far so fast. This is comically awful.

Italy is Italy so will of course do really well, but i just find it all so off putting - he’s like a combination of the child catcher and MJ

Time for the haunted mannequin of Lucio Corsi to consume your nightmares

Belgium does what it sets out to do very well - not entirely my thing but it’s a good package overall

Norway is fine - they had much better in the NF but it’s at least got some energy which is sorely lacking so far tonight

What would Eurovision be without a scandi twink with the vocal capability of a sparrow

Portugal is forgettable dullardry anyway, but coming after Sweden it feels even worse
