Remember Ruslana in 2004? ;) Her semi-final performance was so weak. She wouldn't have won if she would have performed like that in the final. Jamala can still do it! ;) She just needs to calm down before the final.
She won the semi-final tonight for sure, even if I agree that it wasn't her best performance ever.

Everything is possible. But again, i expected weak performance and bookies flop after semi. So not feeling disappointed. I even know that she'll draw first half.

I liked Ukrainian entry, but this tonight was not my cup of tea. Even betting odds reacted, but not in good direction.

This will not win.

I wasn't sure what to make of this when I heard it first a few weeks ago but I really enjoyed tonights performance. Along with Georgia I really appreciated having something different to listen to.

It is the most watched Youtube video from the second semi-final, the song already has 20.000 views. So, what's the problem? It was by far the best entry of this evening. Now it has to compete with Russia. That's difficult but nothing is impossible and I'm sure Jamala will do great.

Why is Ukraine dropping in the odds? I mean, I'm not a fan of this song and, obviously, I wouldn't like it to win, but this was the best performance and the best staging of the night. I don't understand this reaction.

I love this song but it didn't hit me the way I thought it would. Maybe it's because of the fact that I raised my hopes so high for her after all the buzz she created during the rehearsals.

She will be in the top 5 but sadly I don't see her winning :(

I'm happy for Jamala. She also got two votes from me. She would absolutely deserve to win on Saturday.

I expected something boring from this song because of the theme but really it was better than I expected. I guess I'll get used to the song in time and I'll enjoy it just in time.

Second half! xcheer

Why can't I watch the press conference? On YouTube it says it would be blocked in my country. WTF, I'm living in Germany?!

Actually people that loved this song were disappointed, and vice versa with people who hated it. :eek:

More than twice the amount of views as anyone else from that semi. And the like/dislike ratio is much better than her other videos. Maybe not all is lost.

As I said in the other thread, I would be really surprised if this does well. Its so beautiful and powerful, but I'm just not sure how many people will pick up the phone for it.
