Earlier today, we asked #YOU to vote for the ten songs you think will qualify from tonight’s second semi-final – and we have our results!
It seems that there were five songs with almost universal approval to qualify, with Austria‘s Teya and Salena taking 100% confirmation that they will qualify with “Who the Hell is Edgar?”. Is this misguided, or are the ladies sailing through to the final?
Australia‘s Voyager follow next, with “Promise” seen as a qualifier by 98% of our readers, with Slovenia‘s Joker Out in third with 95% and Armenia‘s Brunette and Cyprus‘ Andrew Lambrou in joint fourth on 94%.
The next country is Lithuania, with Monika Linkytė earning sixth with 88% of voters backing her to qualify, before Georgia‘s Iru on 83% and Belgium‘s Gustaph on 81%.
After this the certainty drops off a little. Estonia‘s Alika and Poland‘s Blanka edge out Albania’s Albina and Familja Kelmendi, with the former getting 66% and 65%.
The ranking in full are as follows;
- Austria – 100%
- Australia – 98%
- Slovenia – 95%
- Armenia – 94%
- Cyprus – 94%
- Lithuania – 88%
