The beginnig this time is much better. My favourite part is the dances of bears, jusr cute and a great prelude to Croatia.
1. Croatia
The performance is quite tender, but won't stay in the memory long. Plus, there s still a surplus in Igor's vocal efforts.
2. Ireland
I like practicaly anything in this performance - the girl and her tights appeal to me, the thunder at the backdrops, the song is cheerful, but still it's not enough to qualify.
3. Latvia
Another crazy performance by Intars. Camera work is strangely bad this time, plus I still don't understand the idea with the palm on the backsingers' dresses.
4. Serbia
It's funny for the first time, but then it's boring, i have real doubts about its qualifying.
5. Poland
So, there are lots of examples when such performances go through. We'll see, but i don't think it
s the case.
6. Norway
Nothing new, everything is perfect. First applause in the press centre.
7. Cyprus
The owner of the worst woman vocal of the contest continues to charm the admirers of little pink things.
8. Slovakia
I have a strange feeling that they will qualify, though I don't see any real reasons for it, Kamil's singing is perfect, but nothing more.
9. Denmark
For me it's the most dull song of the semi final, the vocal is boring, and it's the third ballad in a row.
10. Slovenia
So, now they managed to prepare the stage for them in time. Martina almost screams, it's still difficult to survive the song.
11. Hungary
At least something worth after 4 boredoms. I don't like his clothes, but still the performance is good and attractive.
12. Azerbaijam
Well, it's still a perfect permormance and a sure finalist. Aysel is cahrming, Arash is active in his style, vocally good.
13. Greece
wow! what a stupid smile on his face in the beginnig of the performance! I still wish he jumped out of the platform in the end.
14. Lithuania
It will be the greatest pity after Switzerland, if he doesnt qualify. Sounds and looks absolutely perfect.
15. Moldova
I dont understand all the mess around the song and the performance, for me it's too much. but who knows, everyine seems to like it.
16. Albania
For me it's ridiculous, nither the song nor the performance suit this young girl, it's just disguisting.
17. Ukraine
Well, Svetlana is extremely sexy and attractive, but i dont understand the idea behind the singers' and backvocs' dresses. But still the performance is impressive and strong, a sure finalist.
18. Estonia
Mysterious and impressive, the only disadvantage is that Sandra has put too much make-up, it's even seen at th screens and doesn't look very well.
19. The Netherlands
The performance is cute, sincere and friendly, but I'm afraid there are not many people who will vote for them. Good luck anyway.
So, now my prediction for the second semi final.
Norway
Cyprus
Slovakia
Hungary
Azerbaijan
Greece
Lithuania
Moldova
Ukraine
Estonia
