Eurovision song contest 2010 - Second semi-final DISCUSSION

I CANT BELIEVE SWEDEN DIDNT MAKE IT

Ah, that's no surprice to me. I hated the song and her voice...

Traitor!!

But yes, it was simply too boring...however Cyprus was dull as well but I guess Anna's voice is not as likable, it's special

 

[Jukica]

Croatia :shock: big shocker tonight. I like the qualifiers, it'll be strong final

 

[Kristi]

If there is some divine justice now,Azerbaijan should NOT win!!!!!

 

[Metaller]

cyprus is a strong competiton for belgium! i think cyprus will be higher !

xgood I think so too. At least I hope so.

However, seeing Croatia missing the final is quite the shock for me. Okay, I thought they were better in their rehearsals. And it is espacially dramatic if you struggle at the beginning, cause when the first impressions aren't too good you have to be outstanding afterwards. But I thought they still easily towered Denmark. And I still think the song would be good enough for a top 10 in the finals (hey, I put a bet on that).

Sweden: She was a bit shakey. And way too much vibrato for that song. Didn't come to me as a surprise after her performance. :twisted:

 

[Gimnbo]

I can't wrap my head around Israel and Denmark moving on. Lithuania and Slovenia were far more entertaining and fun.

It was not a big surprise to me either since almost all acts sang very well tonight.

This is one of the most exciting years....u don't know what to expect.....everything can happen...

The biggest favorites from this forum were: Slovakia, Croatia and Germany. Slovakia floped, Croatia floped...is this a sign that Germany will also flop? :shock:

I hope, yes I don't like very much Germany's entry this year.

Oh my God, you must be really sad.
But Croatia is really great, everybody will remember them for being great but luck is not on their side.

Unlike Slovakia, a disappointing performance from a fave country, so their disqualification was justified after all.

I don't like Germany either this year, so add another prayer for German failure this year lol

 

[hawadharma]

Ok, 7/10 guesses correct.

 

[Canuck]

Okay, I'm surprised Sweden didn't qualify and everyone else is surprised that Croatia didn't... lol... I found their song a lot more boring and predictable than Anna Bergendahl's

 

[Israeliboy]

Israel had a very strong performance, vocals were good, and he made me feel the song very much.
I voted for Ukraine, Romania and Armenia, well done
Georgia also impressed me with her voice, wow!!!

I'm happy with the qualifiers!!!

 

[Blush]

[Kristi]

[Metaller]

Spain voted in the first Semi.

This was Norway's and I think Great Britain's semi.

That was the best semi final ever in the competition. Some really good songs went out (Croatia, Lithuania, Sweden) but all the qualifiers deserved their place. Azerbaijan was OK but not necessarily a winner, for me.

Personally I thought the absolute outstanding vocal performance was by Ukraine. She was unbelievable and effortless. A worthy qualifier and I hope gets some decent votes in the final. A modern, powerful, strong song. I absolutely love it, but perhaps too modern for the bulk voting of Europe to get top 5.

Turkey were the other major star, for me. Easily the best rock performers of the competition and maybe outsiders for winning? Germany and Azerbaijan are not the strongest performers, even with good songs, so maybe someone will sneak in?

I was amazed at the quality tonight and it was a million times better than the poor semi on Tuesday. Virtually all the losers tonight would have made it through on Tuesday. (Not Switzerland, Bulgaria or Netherlands obviously!!)

Really looking forward to the final and will be interested to see how the betting has changed. Cannot wait!!!

 

[Deltage]

Too Jonas Brothers, too Zac Efron.

No, it's not. Maybe only compared to the other ESC songs.

 

[Blush]

i think ukraine will win! her voice is too powerfull and too perfect to be forgotten...and don't forget this year is the big surprises year after all..germany next to fall down!

 

[Blush]

when will the press conf going to start?? i want to see the draw and go to sleep..
