I got Dima Bilan 2008/Sakis Rouvas 2009 vibes towards the end, and this isn't good.
I liked the beginning.

Will people "get" Estonia if they watch it only once?

 

[gigi_copp3]

Their NF staging was perfect.
Now it seems they're gonna rumble

 

[mauve]

Might be alone here, but Estonia completely overrated.

 

[Etanna]

Will people "get" Estonia if they watch it only once?

I got it immediately within like 10 seconds during their NF

 

[Realest]

Now the Moment, weve all been waiting for

E: Nevermind

 

[cassio]

Estonia must qulify AUSTRIA GREECE BELGIUM out

 

[Zorjan]

I really don't get Estonia I try to, but I really don't

For the second year in a row Ollie should have won Eesti Laul, and for a second year in a row Estonia would have been in my top3

 

[Citelis]

Estonia one of my faves tonight. Please qualify!

Now the Moment, weve all been waiting for

Italy?

Does anyone have the „when did we get the final running order in previous years“ for me. If I remember correctly, someone had an overview for that last year.

 

[Teaisloveable]

You know it's been a long week when you say to yourself

"There's more than 6 people on that stage!"

Then you realise its the LEDs

 

[cassio]

why are Italy always so good........ dam you Italy

 

[Geborgenheit]

Italy is good, maybe even better than in San Remo.

 

[mauve]

Italy the best of the Big 5.

I feel like I should like song and staging more but I’m not completely sold this year. She’s doing a great job though. can still win in my opinion. They could easily be a compromise winner between jury and televoters while pleasing mostly televoters and probably juries.

 

[Gordon_Shumway]

Italy is great this year!

 

[aef]

Italy the best of the Big 5.

That’s not a difficult task though hahaha

 

[jatojo]

La Noia wouldn't be the most intriguing Eurovision winner ever, but there is quality in that song on so many levels.
