i'm afraid again lmao the ~barei moment~ seemed to have mixed reactions. I'm watching lives about the rehearsals today and there was confusion about whether it was intentional or it was a technical failure. It may not translate well :(

I hope the juries didn't roll their eyes at that and marked her down on purpose. That would be a real shame.
However, I think it will work on viewers actually, provided the audience claps and sings with Lea at the right moment.
It's THE most trendy song of the year, she must qualify! Her odds are shortening a bit by the way.

She was solid. I've just seen the clip. Also the "break" looked pretty good, and audience responded to her call to join her. ESCUnited team is convinced that she will qualify. We shall see - soon :)

I hope they'll qualify, the song is quirky and nice, surely one of the better entries in this weak semi, and Lea is nice... but yeah, it's both too different in style plus in native language that the juries will jump onboard, not sure about the public though, I'm not expecting this to qualify at all unfortunately but I cross my fingers for a surprise.

Lea must qualify, if she doesn't qualify, then none should qualify from that semi. I will vote for her. x12s

I don't think she will qualify, but she will be rather borderline than bottom 2 in this semi.

So she practically passed all entries I ALSO want to qualify xshrug

I know it won't happen, since I have a feeling none of these will qualify, but it would be so nice to see those 3 plus Slovenia to do a quadruple surprise qualification, chances are low though, but one can still dream... I think they are all more worthy entries than Russia, Norway and Netherlands for instance that probably will qualify xshrug

I'm sure there will be one or two surprises like on Tuesday. :) Basically all the non-English entries of this semi minus Hungary are expected to NQ, but I don't believe that. They still have a chance imo.

We'll see, the slaughter on local languages and ethnic sounds continues xshrug

If Greece couldn't, and they had a very strong entry and lots of diaspora, I'm not really sure how these can xshrug At least Serbia, and to some extent Montenegro, has diaspora who could help out a bit, but yeah it won't help if juries will slaughter them xshrug

As you say, we'll see. Sometimes it's not just about diaspora, lots of people actually appreciate entries with cultural identity, so all isn't lost yet.

But indeed seeing these four countries qualify tonight is impossible unfortunately, plastic songs take too much space :lol:

I wanted to vote for Slovenia from Germany, so I called 0137363617 but the voice on the phone said "Your vote for Norway has been counted".
I hope I didn't really vote for that stupid Norwegian song by mistake.

Did the director in Portugal ever watched her National Final video????

I mean her show has been totally butchered.

Nevertheless song is MORE THAN ENOUGH not only to qualify but to reach top 5! Bravo Lea Bravo Slovenia!
