[Looren]

Let's goooo

 

[Etanna]

ooh I love this opening number

 

[Kairit]

The awkward silence for Inga after 5Miinust&Puuluup God, the stage really is tiny though, but that was expected.

 

[Looren]

I don't know why but I really really like how Estonian sounds

 

[EscGeek]

Ollie's "My Friend" is still my favorite song released this season. It beats all of the mainstream and retro bops, other rock and rockish songs, and other fun stuff i enjoy from other countries.

I'm not worried for today because Ollie can and will perform so good that you'd think he's using playback. But he's got some competition for victory according to the odds and i can't even be mad about it. 5miinust are really good too. Aaaaaaaaah, everything is just like last year.

 

[Etanna]

I didn't listen to any of the songs prior to this but I think I have already found my winner! This song is the epitome of why I watch Eurovision.

 

[Looren]

I liked that but it was kinda messy, didn't live up to the song's full potential

 

[Gwendal]

1. 5MIINUST x Puuluup – “(nendest) narkootikumidest ei tea me (küll) midagi” (We don’t (really) know anything about (those) drugs)

Well, the stage is indeed tiny, but there's no staging here. The song (and the funny choregraphy) are fortunately the core of this performance! A very relevant track for Eurovision, but... with some real staging.

 

[MopManMoss]

Spoken word bit needs to be louder

 

[lasse braun]

musicbomb has landed!
12/10
the winner is clear.

 

[Kairit]

You can always count on Inga to slay lol. That was hot, well executed staging. Just kind of boring as a whole package.

 

[Gwendal]

2. INGA – “No Dog On a Leash”

Definitely a worthy finalist. Performance is kinda cool too! This semifinal is a real bloodbath

 

[lasse braun]

2.INGA – “No Dog On A Leash”
solid modern song - 5/10

 

[Looren]

Not fond of INGA's song tbh

 

[Ulfgeirr]

5miinust x Puuluup need more of a concept in order to pop, but expecting them to qualify of course tonight.

Inga was stylish but didn't really lead anywhere. Found myself losing interest before it finished.

 

[Looren]

LET'S GOOOOO OLLIE

 

[MopManMoss]

worse than last year another dated and cringy song from ollie (probably bias because this really reminds me of when i was super into linkin park as a teenager)

 

[lasse braun]

3.OLLIE – “My Friend”
solid rocksong but nothing news here - 4/10
