SEMI 1 DISCUSSION

[QwaarJet]

Norway out shocked me a lot, as did no Turkey or Armenia. Shame Russia got in, too many tone deaf people watching.

 

[Akakelloss]

Norway is out?! Unreal... O_O

 

[Bojan]

wow shocked that Turkey, Armenia and NORWAY failed
I actually liked them all :/
and Croatia too gonna miss Poland in the final also.
happy about Serbia, Russia and Georgia making the final.

 

[Margerita86]

Oh my god! No Turkey in the final. Perhaps this will put an end to those saying Turkey could send a fart and still rank high...

 

[Madalina]

OMG WTF..no Norway,no Turkey,didnt expect this
i am sorry only for Norway,i like that song but seems her vocals got her out of the final
after this i start being scared about the 2nd semi-final

 

[Metaller]

No Turkey? Wow! That destroys quite a lot of my bets!

Lithuania shows that really good vocals can put you through even when your song sounds like it was written by someone who was in hybernation for the last 40 years.

I'm happy for Switzerland and am quite amazed that Norway and Armenia are out.

In general more surprises than I would have thought.

But Turkey. That's just a shock!

 

[AlekS]

Vorob'yov was scandalous.

He screamed "YEAAAHHHH! This is Russia, f*ck! This is Russia, f*ck!"

That coarse word instead "f-ck" means a worse variant of "wh-re" but this is awesome to hear such words on ESC. Wondering if people close their eyes tomorrow

 

[californiadreaming]

I'm surprised that Poland didn't get through...

 

[Jannuu]

I'm surprised, there were some countries I was sure would qualify based on the reactions I've read from the forums. Out of ten, 7 countries I wanted to qualify made it to the final.

 

[deese]

No Turkey?!!!!!! O____________________________0


No Armenia!!!!! O__________________________0

No Norway *faint*

Me too. I don't know what shocked me more.

 

[goktengri]

hope people are satisfy now ( we are always blamed ) I have already said that Turkey would not do it.

I think it is good. People may at least end their hate against Turkey because of diaspora. People couldn't even realized that there is no any chance for average votes to Turkey in 1st semi because they got used to see Turkey's doing great every year ! Hope we will not be blamed and see such prejudices next year...

Turkey and Armenia !!! 3

 

[No Name]

Turkey is out. Wtf.

Apary from Turkey missing out I'm more than happy about the results.

I always found Norway bad, and have always wondered what the hype was all about. I'm thrilled to see it out.

 

[Tomex18]

No Poland that contest is very political contest.

 

[Israeliboy]

LOL...OK...I need to relax..............NNOOO NORRWAAAYYYY? HOW COME EUROPE...HOW

 

[Grinch]

I'm not surprised for Turkey. On Will vs. Want topic, I said so but noone agreed. I hope TRT will change the way of choosing songs!

Poland was surprise. Sad for Norway & Albania.

 

[Atsu]

I can only say, ******************** YEAH! Iceland, Switzerland, Serbia and Finland in!! Wooo!! (poor Stella, anyway :S)

 

[yulara]

No Turkey?!!!!!! O____________________________0


No Armenia!!!!! O__________________________0

No Norway *faint*

unbelievable....

 

[Megasalt]

I'm so glad Iceland qualified in the end. And Finland, Switzerland and Serbia!

 

[Sabrewulf238]

Gutted for Norway and Albania. Although I thought Albania's performance was a bit off despite absolutely loving the song.

Shocked at Armenia and Turkey not making it, feels a little like justice though. If only Russia and Greece had fallen off too.

However I'm happy with 7 out of the 10 qualifiers. I found a love for Finland's song during the performances and it booted Poland out of my top ten.
