My Qualifiers: (order in appearance)
1. Cyprus
2. Poland
3. Czech Republic
4. Hungary
5. Belarus
6. Serbia
7. Australia
8. Iceland
9. Portugal
10. Greece (very weak vocals)

Super sad for Estonia and Belgium. Both fell flat. Vocally both were very weak I must say.

Nevena was WOW tonight but I think she might miss. I just have flashbacks to "Round and Round" BARELY sneaking in in a much smaller semi. Plus that recap clip understates how good the performance was.

Our commentator just called Serhat his “Euro-daddy” and I’ve never been happier

Wow. Really really bad camera work, they fucked up a lot of songs. Feel sorry for them.
Many changes in my list tonight. Biggest positive surprise: Belarus.
I also want Georgia to qualify! Czech Republic were brilliant live. Australia nailed it! Iceland great.
Guilty pleasure: Finland.

I dont really agree. Just watched some performances from last year and there were lots worse camera shots. I wouldve done things differently here and there as well, but I expected worse after all the criticism that accured the past few days.

Australia overtaking Russia and challenging Sweden in the odds. Russia is way too overrated anyway.

That must be a joke?
Australia over Russia & Sweden??

I think, Greece will fail to qualify again.

Just going to take a wild guess that this post would never have happened if the bolded part weren't included.

I liked Iceland, Czech Republic, Australia.

I won't be surprised if my parents liked Iceland

I dont think Greece will make it. She lacked personality on stage, and vocals werent on point at all. She never connected with that camera, I dont understand the hype that has been created around her. She didnt live up to it at all tonight.

Cyprus seemed really underwhelming to me, though it wasn't just Cyprus there were a number of songs that felt very low energy tonight. (Finland and Belgium are another two that come to mind, I mean I get Belgium isn't a pop banger but I thought there would be more of an oomph since it's an anthemic sort of song)

I think Greece did more than enough to qualify though.

Question for our Baltoscandic friends: is hockey the "dudebro" sport in Baltoscandia like it is in the Upper Midwest of the US? It just strikes me like it could be.

EDIT: Why not use "dudebro" as a pejorative when the opportunity presents itself?!
