[RainyWoods]

I get to vote for practically all my most favourite Eurovision countries + the ones that look like they could give me a super fav if the NFs go to plan.

 

[Citelis]

We are not with Cyrpus but countries in SF1 are usually stronger than those in SF2 so we are better in SF2!

I must say, i really like graphics they used for the draw. Very professionally done.

 

[ESC94]

Ok, Lithuania and Germany and Belarus are in the first semi final... Now I need Poland & Ukraine in Semi 1

Well, at least one of your wishes came true!!

 

[Leydan]

Happy with the draw (except poland is already rubbing its hands at the juicy televote 12 coming its way). A few countries im expecting great things from are in the semi i vote so excellent x

 

[Daybreak]

That moment when your country is the last one to be drawn (also we're in the same semi as Latvia and Finland so that's promising)

 

[Mrm]

Slovenia, Croatia and Macedonia in the 1st semi, we are in the 2nd semi. LOL

But the first semi is with Sweden, Ukraine, Russia, Azerbaijan, Australia, Norway.. :O So, maybe not bad..

 

[Citelis]

We have which is a great friend!

 

[VikingTiger]

oh... on paper that first semi seems to be pretty tough.

 

[Sammy]

oh... on paper that first semi seems to be pretty tough.

indeed. With Sweden, Russia, Ukraine and Australia who will most likely qualify and Azerbaijan who has also a pretty impressive record of qualifications...

 

[ESC94]

It will be interesting to see which country wil get from televote, the only country with a sizeable diaspora in the same semi is and to a lesser extent .

But I already have a strong feeling about the from in semi 2.

 

[Zonne147]

Semifinal 1 gives me better vibes than the semifinal 2, but some of the countries from which I always root for are in semifinal 2.

A few thoughts:

- Semifinal 1 have got most of the sharks, no doubts about that. Not interested in saying anything else about it by now, will focus on the most unpredictable one.

- Good draw for us, 2nd semifinal + 2nd half + we got (and + maybe)

- They may be coming back to the final if they make the right choice (actually, the last mentioned thing will is the most unlikely to happen)

- Their qualification chances have increased imo, they got a very good spot + they got (and maybe )

- Would love to see them back to the final if they send sth as likeable for me as their last underrated efforts - they had a good draw at least

- Great draw, I now see almost half of Eesti Laul 2020 songs with good chances of qualifying for the final
