Time to rank the rehearsals again!
1. Greece - WOOOOOOOW! I never thought I would like the greek entry, but it is just marvelous! The backdrop fits the song beautifully and Loukas sings so emotional that it feels like it is his last time he'll ever sing. I still want to strangle Europe's worst rapper, but I could actually live with him when everything is modern and touching. Superb!
2. Azerbaijan - Well to be honest, all rehearsals today have had some problems, In Azerbaijans case it is Nigar that sounds she got a cold. Still it can be fixed and the preformance overall looks great. They really fit together and the backdrop feels simple, but also modern. Eldar sings very well and it is really good at faking the emotion they have to each other (which Denmark couldn't last year). This will do well, still not out of the question of winning tbh!
3. Lithuania - GOD I HATE THIS SONG! but GOD HOW GOOD IS EVELINA?! Evelina shines when she is on stage and wears the most beautiful creation so far in Eurovision. Her voice is stunning and it feels like the song is getting less worse when I hear her sing it. I also like the idea with the sign language, that she should have more of, cause we all know what happened to Latvia in 05? Good preformance, good singer, sucky song, but may qualify anyway.
4. Iceland - It's nice, the guys sing well and the backdrop which is weird, still suits the song pretty well. Though I still think the song is too boring to qualify. But still a good rehearsal.
5. Hungary - I am getting flashbacks from 2008, where Charlotte Perrelli stand still most of the time in Belgrade. Here Kati is standing still more than half of the preformance. Her pronunciation is actually worse than before in the video (which is really weird, since you can't fix that in autotune..) Still Kati sings very well and it should be enough to qualify..but only to..let's say 18th in the final maybe?
6. Portugal - Haha, well what could I say...It is better than on the NF-preformance. And since all the ones before are boring, then why not would this get loads of votes? But nah, not enough to qualify.
7. Malta - Glen does sing well and the preformance is starting okay..but turning worse...and worse....and worse..."no I go and do something else.". It is really boring and goes on and on to nowhere. GIVE US MORE COLOUR!
8. San Marino - ZzZzZzZZzZzZZZz..what!? Did I miss anything? No, just a woman singing a completly pointless song, with an awfully boring preformance. I go back to sleep...
9. Croatia - What A Trainwreck!! Even if Daria sings okay, everything is just horrible. The woman can't dance! And what the heck does the "magician" on stage, especially behind the DJ-table? And the cloth changes are just the worst, you could even see through when she does the changes, and she does the changes even in the wrong time in the song musically. This may be the worst rehearsal I've seen in years and I do not look forward to the show..yuck!
My total ranking after seeing the first rehearsals of the semi 1:
1. Greece
2. Georgia
3. Norway
4. Russia
5. Azerbaijan
6. Finland
7. Albania
8. Lithuania
9. Iceland
10. Hungary
11. Poland
12. Portugal
13. Switzerland
14. Turkey
15. Serbia
16. Armenia
17. Malta
18. San Marino
19. Croatia
But things could still change when the 2nd rehearsals comes!
