Song 4: Marcus & Martinus – "Air"
Another ballad, but a somewhat different style to the last one. I like the way in which the chorus is sung, and the sound sequence which follows. However, I have my reservations about the line "I can breathe without air", because how can anyone breathe without air in real life? Tonight's performance is enhanced by the light beams and lasers in the background.
Song 5: Panetoz – "On My Way"
I don’t like the rap in this song (I don't like rap generally), but I particularly like the lively, catchy chorus, which is accompanied by the beach scene on the background screen. The chorus has a Spanish feel to it. On the whole, I think this would be better suited as Spain’s entry rather than Sweden’s. If this does go to Eurovision, this ought to get plenty of points from Spain, and perhaps Portugal. That said, I've counted seven performers on stage, so if this goes to Eurovision, they'll have to have one less performer in Liverpool.

Panetoz look like a fun bunch of guys, but the song is not my thing.
I really thought that Marcus and Martinus were Swedish 
It was a bit weird with the subtitles as they weren't that hard to understand to me. It sounded more Norwegian than Swedish to me!
...and apparently it was..?

Not a bad song, though I feel like this type of beat has been done to death by now?

They're Norwegian, yeah. They mixed in a couple of Swedish words tho, like a lot of Norwegians do when they speak on Swedish TV.I really thought that Marcus and Martinus were Swedish

Thank you Laurel for this beautiful power ballad 
Still love the song and the part with the audience was a moment, wow! I have to say tho her first performance was better.

Maria Sur's entry is nice, but don't want it to win.

Ah, I thought it was just me... but I don´t think she sounds as good as in her heat.
This is mediocre at best (given the fact that there´s a lot of backing track)

A fine song from Maria, but that's all it is really. Hard to stand out especially with some of the other ballad songs this year I feel like.

Song 6: Maria Sur – "Never Give Up"
A country-esque ballad, with quite a powerful chorus. Maria has a beautiful voice, and sang well. The lighting varies quite a bit, sometimes the stage is predominantly dark; other times there are multiple light beams.
