So what do you think are the changes to revealing the semi final results that the producers are hinting at? Have read about it in some circles, but seen no firm detail if it's just rumours or not.

A lot of the comments seem to be erring on the consensus that the hosts might reveal the countries not qualifying for the final and out, instead of revealing the actual qualifiers. But that would be mental to basically just focus the camera on disappointed artists seeing their dreams crushed - we need the energy and joy of them hearing their country called!

They could do it similar to the televote voting in the final but of course without points (just qualified or not qualified) following the running order or in random order. this could be at least equally exciting and the NQ would get the attention and the applause they deserve.

Pretty sure they want to avoid calling out anyone not qualifying, for good reason!

For the life of me i can't figure out what is wrong with the current system. I would argue the qualifiers announcement is even more interesting than voting in the final.

The semi finals give us the insight on who's in and who's out with 10 qualifiers easy to remember and even when it's finished there's still another show to look forward to.
The final just gives us one winner and overwhelming amount of statistics that's impossible to digest in one day and then it's all suddenly over.

I have really not been into eurovision this edition as much as I have been in previous years as my life has been a bit of a mess recently (all good now) but one thing that has always put a smile on my face is this theme music for some reason? Weird to hear the full track

So pictures of the construction process of the stage reveal that they will really imitate the mountains with huuuuge props. I wonder how that will look on TV. Can look super cheap, but might look nice?

Some performances will benefit from that I believe. Those that make sense to be „in the middle of mountains“ such as Sweden, Latvia, Austria, Greece, Armenia, Poland, Serbia. 😄 Just a random thought tbh.

That surprised me as well. I thought they would put the mountains on a LED screen. But I think I will like it. The stages of the last years were quite more of the same every year.

I feel like those rock things could benefit countries like Armenia or even gain a few extra points to Austria but downside countries like Luxembourg and Croatia.

It sounds swiss, modern, eurovision style, dreamy... it may be the best soundtrack since 2016?

Napa should get an extra help for internal numbers.
It is pretty obvious they will grab all the "new revelation" and maybe "song of the year" prizes. The song is being played in every big radio station and it is a success on Spotify.

Why don't famous singers participate in Eurovision Contest anymore? Earlier has been e.g. Cliff Richard and Patricia Kaas.
