Today has been so magical! I’ve loved Liverpool and being among fans in the village. I went for Käärijä’s set and had so much fun!!! Bring on the arena tomorrow where I’ll probably blub my eyes out

Oh no! :( I wanted to throw a couple of diaspora votes to Kween Bejba :(

I wanted to vote for her as well, but she will qualify even without those Votes.
Cant wait to burn my Simcard for her in the Final.

I´ll obviously wait for her final performance but I think she stepped up her game!

Great to read that you will be probably voting for her! #solodomination

Just watched the semi back on tv and Loreen sounded so much worse than she did in the arena (not being bias Sweden isn’t even in my top 15)

Dunno, I watched it with my headphones on and she sounded fine to me (and WAAAAY better than in the previously released footage from the 2nd rehearsals)

I think she sounded fine to me, I listened to it with my headphones on the night, only things that stuck out to me as 'bad' was she accidentally bumped the microphone early on, but no one else likely noticed, and I think the sound mixing was off as I swear I could hear her costume in the early sections but that isn't her fault. There might have been a couple of moments where she wasn't as good as the live performance they used for the official video on the ESC Youtube page but she is still a fantastic vocalist overall and she isn't going to let that happen come Friday/Saturday.

I´m sorry but I can´t stop laughing at comments wanting to have "juries back in the semis" because :ie: and :nl: didn´t qualify.

What did you expect from such performances?

The juries might have made :mt: qualify - who knows? but it´s not like their song couldn´t have been "from the 00`s" either. :mt: could have easily been last in the jury vote as well, though.

Nah jury would only have saved Latvia probably (what they deserved for sure). Why on earth would they have saved Ireland? Vocally it wasn't good at all.
Yeah I could maybe see Aija qualifying with a jury much like :be: 2021 & :al: 2018

I cant believe I am saying this but I think we should wait for the full results first honestly

I'll redact my opinion, copy it, and be ready to paste it again on Sunday, then...

So... if juries wouldn´t have saved :nl: or :ie: and even :mt: or :lv: is quite "questionable" and "not a given"...

Why are some fans whining about not having juries in semi 1?!?! - Did you all want :az: to qualify with that song?!
