I can't believe she's not lip syncing.

I still dont understand what this spanish song is about

This is about Dons' bald head

 

[Etanna]

Nebulossa sounded the best tonight compared to any other performance I've heard. But I'm not totally comfortable with seeing the men in the audience chanting "zorra, zorra, zorra" at her lol

 

[Zorjan]

österdahl is still getting a thirst trap song about how the people love him, and Petra is supposed to make a joke about how he is our Europapa in a separate piece before the jury voting. So, hold your horses.

Alright, that'll be awkward
But so far everything's going very well, I think

 

[Citelis]

Spain is probably stronger than I was thinking

 

[Shadowfuxcs]

Oh come through Nebulossa, so improved and finally we can hear your vocals! (Still finishing 2nd to last)

 

[musicfan]

I like the Spanish disco song but still can't stand the dancers. No need to make it into camp nonsense. Much better dance than Lithuania.

 

[Chrisiam]

Bollocks to Wogan.

Why did they come up with this in the first place? Does anyone LOVE him? Honestly?

 

[NeoTen]

Have you any data?

If you calculate the new odds in, she is at 56%. She is probably gonna get 450-500 televoting points at this point. But let's wait until the all the songs have been sang, then I can give you an exact nr like every year.

 

[Jeansy]

"raise a glass for terry" man would call this farce out for what it is

 

[Andrin]

I've Just seen a dutch flag and the word belgium written on a ribbon ?!

 

[cassio]

I think Estonia is this years best silly waco song, even better than Croatia

 

[Realest]

is really good. The Guy with long hair has great livevocals.

You mean exact like for Latvia on Thursday? Impressive.

Ohh, the odds.
Nothing too strange, last year Kaarija had 53%.
Ukraine had 68%.

 

[jatojo]

So annoying that I couldn't make my old mother hate Estonia and Croatia ...

 

[Etanna]

Estonia are the best love them so much, it's just so much fun

 

[Citelis]

Estonia great!

 

[cassio]

I think they've been doing a great job hiding the issues about both Israel and The Netherlands
If I didn't know better, I wouldn't have realized that there've been anything different than usual

agree SVT are doing a good job
