Given Lauri’s vocals I really wouldn’t put Finland down as safe

I don't exactly think Achilles vocals are great either, but I think the song and performance could be more appealing to voters overall than Finland. I feel like San Marino is a case where the vocals don't really detract too much from the overall package.

I could see the juries potentially sinking both of them though...although Finland will probably be more popular with the juries than San Marino.

So far I have seen the jury tests of Spain and San Marino... what energy! :love: Spain has made a quantum leap in staging. Now I can say that he might as well take victory! (y)

After the first semifinal many of you have bandaged your heads, cried and shouted at the conspiracy but watch the performances of the second semifinal... it is clear that it will be in this that the hot songs will be able to emerge. I'm sorry to say it but Austria and Albania (which also penalized itself with the choice of a bad staging) would have been musically brutally massacred by the other catchy songs of the second semifinal.

What else to say? Midnightsun watches the videos... Yes, watch them... You will not regret it... How much I love being a tempting devil! :devilish::ROFLMAO:

I think (after watching the videos) that the shocking qualifier will be San Marino, the shocking NQ Malta, Cyprus and maybe even Estonia.

This was the first year since 2010 that I wasn't able to watch a semi final live as it happened, so I had to catch up yesterday. I also hadn't had enough time to check out the majority of the songs beforehand, so I went into it rather blind (and will do so as well for semi 2 tonight).

This was my first impression ranking of Semi 1. I had added a GREAT category to my notepad beforehand, but found no song great enough to add to it unfortunately.

GOOD
Bulgaria
Portugal
Denmark
Armenia
(good song, but wtf was that staging?!)
The Netherlands

OK
Moldova
Switzerland
Iceland
Greece


EH
Lithuania
Slovenia
Albania
Ukraine
Croatia


WORST
Norway
Latvia
Austria

OK. I have caved in and watch the jury show (only the 18 performances back to back).
So my thoughts on the performances (an extremely long post):



In short, if I have to lock in my qualifiers based on the jury show, they will be:
:se::pl::au::cz::rs::il::az::cy::ee::ro:

I hope you can relax now and enjoy the show! :)

I‘m working from home and I‘ve been switching back and forth from work to this forum the past weeks, in a way I‘m so happy when this is over… :LOL:

I am waaaaaay more relaxed tonight than I was two days ago. All my big favs in this Semi are pretty much safe so I can just sit back and relax.
