Is it? It has Israel, Malta and San Marino in it

It's like Vasil meets Gjon's Tears. It's alright. The song certainly has a climax to it (which I'd worry about greatly when performed live as Nadir sounds strained enough in the studio version) and despite being nothing we haven't heard a bunch of times already so far this year, it's not bad. Nadir has a certain charm that helps it along. It's got the potential to do well providing it's performed with the strength needed on stage.

Australia, Serbia, Sweden, Belgium, Poland, Estonia, Finland, Cyprus...
Also I wouldnt rule San Marino out yet!
I don't get that argument? Those three countries could borderline qualify.
While Semi 1 has Bulgaria, Denmark, Slovenia and Croatia who are very unlike or even dead on arrival (I like Slovenia's and Croatia's songs btw before anyone hates on me).

Semi 2 is more open in my opinion

it's literally on the same level as all the Borderline qualifiers (which is around 12 entries by themselves). I don't really see how Azer's chances are better than Serbia or Belgium's.
Assuming the worst, I think Azer barely qualifies and finished around 23rd place, like Dilara before him.
(all the better scenarios involve him NQ'ing

Do you not think Azerbaijan has more chance to qualify in semi 2 than if they were in 1?it's literally on the same level as all the Borderline qualifiers (which is around 12 entries by themselves). I don't really see how Azer's chances are better than Serbia or Belgium's.

+3 I also can't make out what he's singing. I know people say he has diction problem when he sings English songs, so I guess this is what they meant. He doesn't have an accent but then I still can't catch what he's singing except "Fade to Black" and that's because I saw the title of the song before watching the video.
He seems like he's going to perform the heck out of it. Likely to steal votes from Poland and Australia. I don't know how I feel about the song though. First listen it didn't emote anything out of me. But it's not meh like so many others even I first listened to them. I am giving this a generous
when the poll is up.

Feeling sorry for Ochman, that Rustamli has more water in his video. But Ochman has the better song.
I´m getting emotional writing this, but I want to thank you all for the journey through this Eurovision season this year. It´s been a lot of fun and what a way to end the the selection process. I hope you all will continue to find enjoyment in this year´s contest and that it will be a very exciting time for everyone. I give this a 7 for now, cause I spent more time thinking about the journey to this point than the actual song. (but everything sounded really good)

They would struggle in both.
If he performs this like "Arcade" he is in big trouble. He can sing but he can't project any emotions. And that you don't understand what he's singing makes it even worse.

Difficult to say. I'd think so, yes? they should have an easier time in semi 1 on paper. The borderline qualifiers there are less safe and there are fewer NQs.
On the other hand, Armenia.

Serious question: Does he even understand one word he sings?? 
I´m asking because I always had the feeling he has big trouble pronouncing the words. The song itself is really boring and much too long and also feels really fake dramatic for me, I don´t believe anything that comes out of his mouth.
Sorry, this was really not worth the wait and I give a very generous and only because I his voice doesn´t sound that bad, but that´s it really.
