I don't get people saying this year is weak. Thinking about contests when semis were a struggle to watch because of many bad entries, this year i will really enjoy the whole contest because they all are good in their own way.
This year is even stronger! There are so many favorite songs that we can't say with 90 or 95% who will win. That's why some people think this year's Eurovision is weak.
I think on average it is a strong year but the best song are not as good as the best songs usually are. But equally the worst songs are not as bad as the worst songs usually are.
idk last year was so much more stronger with many strong candidates for the win, this year feels like it's going to be a battle between four and the rest will be just there -- to show great performances nonetheless, but i'm not sure if it will be as memorable as the previous few years.
My issue this year is that most of those at the top of the odds for me have rather average songs, except for Italy. There's a lot of average this year. Nothing bad but mucho average.
@@-eliaplayz-5766 sadly there are better songs, artists and acts. I wish we would have the top 14 from each semi to qualify! Only then, she would deserve to make it
@@dinahirie886 1. *Chanel 2. No, this is Sarah Bonnici. The only similar thing is that both are girl bops. I don’t recall Chanel doing a 360 backflip blindfolded, among many other things
I would really like Czechia to create a surprise in this semi-final and qualify! I find that this song gives off a very strong energy that stands out from the other songs!
Make sure all Latvians & your diaspora WISH & pray for this! 💫⚡🤞🏻 Miracles do happen; much luv, strength, power & Gluck to Dons from Armenia. I luv his song, my 2nd fav! All the best & I'm WISHING, PRAYING & VOTING for Lavia with you. 💜
@@tangofoxtrot4603 I think the song isn't really bad at all, I think she needs to have better stage presence and move around a bit, the songs energy doesn't match what the singer is doing on stage. which is why I think it has low chances of qualifying
@@krunoslavkovacec1842 yeah she looks so much better now! The vocals are also on power, obviously, and I genuinely wish her all the best, it's just that I liked the others more :')
Positive surprises: Czechia (great staging), Austria (awesome outfit, I thought it was playback singing), Albania (cool outfit, but she needs to be in that spotlight when light beams come down to one point of the stage, right? better staging then expected)
so it wasn't enough we not knowing who's gonna win this year and now Malta and Czechia give us two of the bests rehearsals and elevating this competition the odds are shakingggg
Was a bit worried when I saw what Nemo was wearing but the way they seem to be utilizing the disk is so freaking cool

@@lirah3523 last year was much weaker and the battle was known between only 2 countries the rest were just there...unlike this year
Greece, Switzerland, Austria and Armenia should qualify in this half
Switzerland, Greece, Malta, Latvia, Denmark, Austria ❤
Marina slayed! Besa gave us best vocals! Nemo gave us best quality! Armenia gave us diversity! Kaleen made us rave!!!! Yeesss
That glow-up from Czechia though! 🇨🇿
Yeah like DAMN Aiko really killed this
MASSIVE glowup
The pre-recorded lyrics help a lot.
not enough
The way she sings “pedestal”, 😍 and lets not forget Albania had a glow up from the first rehearsal 😍
Regarding Greece, Marina today had problems with the audio. The back vocalists sound louder and as a result Marina cannot be heard a lot!
It’s basically the technic that Austria tries to use so she does not sound that bad
Yeah cause Greeks today went a little crazy 😂
That makes sense
She is great!
She needs a lavalier with that dance tbh. Mic is not gonna do well.
It's crazy how Dons always sings without a single mistake
Yeah he's one damn good singer
Fr fr he is underrated
Perhaps Eurovision essentially is not about that anymore
He’s definitely a good singer. I like song too. Maybe he could add a little more charisma? It will improve a lot
@@ineedgoldenretrieverHe will definitely add some energy in the semi final when it really matters
Dons looks amazing 😍
Omg when the countdown is longer than the actual video 😅
The best of them: Albania, Greece, Switzerland, Austria, Latvia:)
@@СветланаГао Malta instead of Latvia or Albania
🇱🇻 - the case when you don’t want to think about anything, but just relax and enjoy the performance
laconic stage, good lyrics and nice vocals
I love Aiko’s ikonic hair style. Was not expecting the back up people to sport it too.
My favourites are Greece, Switzerland, Austria, Armenia ❤❤🥰🥰
Same
I personally didn't like Switzerland but at 2nd semi final Greece marina satti was sick so she sounded weird.
Kaleen’s outfit was exactly what I was hoping to see for her stage 😍
the song didn’t really stick w me too much but with the staging and outfits oml 😍
OMG Czechia really has a glow up, i almost can see a qualifier
She is good but not enough. Maybe in semi 1, she would have better chances
@@unitedeurope2015 I think she's definitely got the potential to qualify and to be honest I am here for it!!!
@@-eliaplayz-5766 sadly there are better songs, artists and acts. I wish we would have the top 14 from each semi to qualify! Only then, she would deserve to make it
I love the song, but no stage miracles will help it if it's not vocally accurate.
damn yes she has grown the most of all of them. But the outfit is tasteless and not good enough sitll
Latvia, Armenia, Switzerland and Greece (though her vocals weren't great here...) ❤
Czechia - very good!!! And very interesting staging of Austria
Greece, Switzerland and Austria 😍😍
So proud of my home country! 🇲🇹🇲🇹🇲🇹
Is it channel?😂
@@dinahirie886 1. *Chanel
2. No, this is Sarah Bonnici. The only similar thing is that both are girl bops. I don’t recall Chanel doing a 360 backflip blindfolded, among many other things
@@escxmatt i get it that its your country and you will protect it as your Child but everybody knows loop is slomo's copy
@@9elous both are girl bops I know but that doesn’t mean it’s a copy….does that mean that Israel 2023 is a copy of SloMo?
Hard to qualify. She is good but I am not sure if she is good enough to qualify. I tried so hard to put her into my top 10
I would really like Czechia to create a surprise in this semi-final and qualify! I find that this song gives off a very strong energy that stands out from the other songs!
5 days left 🎉🎉🎉

he just deserves the final
DONS ♥️🇱🇻
This is gonna be a bloodbath 😭 I wish Denmark to qualify, here are so many good songs and performances
Yeah, i think Denmark should wear something different,
@@abidsobirin4235 A different song also.
@@tangofoxtrot4603 I think the song isn't really bad at all, I think she needs to have better stage presence and move around a bit, the songs energy doesn't match what the singer is doing on stage. which is why I think it has low chances of qualifying
Yes... in my opinion the second semi has much more strong songs and deserved qualifiers than the first semi.
MARINA IS THE MOMENT!! 🇬🇷
Austria, Switzerland and Denmark ❤️ i love it and i love the voice from Latvia 😍
Switzerland my favourite 🇨🇭
Greece , Armenia and Austria for me

Who’s here for MA-RI-NA?? 🇬🇷
Today not very good though
@@wherever1717 sure but was just a rehearsal so I think they’ll fix it for the semi
@@wherever1717 mic issues
@@yonkoyonchev943That’s what they said about Romania 2021, and look how that turned out
I’m here for Austria
Exciting rehearsals today ❤
I have a feeling this stage alienates the artists from the audience and also makes all entries look videogame-like onscreen.
I agree, I don't like it either, very not crowd interacting stage. Too many CGI and graphics, it seems too fake at some point
@@TMPOUZI that's a pretty good resumption of this and last year Sweden's entry
Latvia for the final🇱🇻🇱🇻🇱🇻🎆🎆
Real beautiful staging
I loved Greece,Switzerland,Malta,and Czechia!!!Good luck from Uk!!!🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧❤️❤️❤️
I loved Greece,Malta,and Czechia!,I hope they qualify!!!Lots of love from the UK!🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧❤️❤️❤️
Dons has definitely the best man`s voice & strong emotional song 🤩
Positive surprises: Czechia (great staging), Austria (awesome outfit, I thought it was playback singing), Albania (cool outfit, but she needs to be in that spotlight when light beams come down to one point of the stage, right? better staging then expected)
Switzerland has to win this thing! What a stunning entry!
Of the attempts seen in the clip, I liked Austria, Denmark, of course Latvia
so it wasn't enough we not knowing who's gonna win this year and now Malta and Czechia give us two of the bests rehearsals and elevating this competition the odds are shakingggg
my favorites: Malta, Austria, Armenia and Denmark! Good Luck from Serbia ❤️
Czechia 😍

That’s definitely the outfit she should wear

🎲MAARINAAA 12 POINTS🎲 FROM SERBIA 🇬🇷❤️🇷🇸
Nope. Serbia never gives 12 points to Malta. Serbian vote is always politic
@@unitedeurope2015GREECE
12 points to Teya Dora my fav 😍🇬🇷❤️🇷🇸
Teya Dora is more original! Malta this year is a big let down. Before, they were bringing something on their own.
@@unitedeurope2015 everything is unique except Malta
Malta is copycat from old entries
