ohhh they started with ukraine. eye contacts makes ne think chuuni. and then stairs on fire. very Eurovision

[Spain] i get why people keep asking if they're dating. geeeee that chemistry between them!

[Slovenia] kpop songggg. those beats are so kpop feel.

[Lithuania] song's nice but there's just something about her voice that's weird.
and then her lover goes on stage, and she sounds like she gonna cry

[norway] ahhhhh alex rybakkkk, my biasss

how has he not aged since 2009

always that one random horse hair flying around from the bow

[Portugal] heyyy this isn't too bad

[uk] did they change the clip or keep it with the intruder?

ah they changed it, as i suspected. her voice was kinda shakey after it happened but audience support was stronggg

[serbia] the whole set up is kinda cool. catchy tunesss

[Germany] not bad, but not really winner material? very nice song though

[France] this is sounding not bad! bonus points for being not english

[czech republic] ahhhh cutie megane with backpack

happy upbeat songgg

[denmark] ahhhh vikingsss. the song is growing on me

[strayaaaa] song's fun and partyyyy but it just... pales compared to Guy Sebastian and Dami Im?

She dances pretty amazing though. I'm still happy with this entry but guy and dami are just too damn good

her moves remind me of Moana dance moves. or... well, very general, pacific island

[Finland] song growing on meeee.

[moldova] fun song time! watching it makes it more fun

[Sweden] the visuals are nice. lights and everything. watching it live in the audience may not have same effect, hmmm.... i dunno.

[hungary] rock timeeeee

[israel] ah, the only entry that made me go YEP FINALIST MATERIAL at the very beginning of song (if you exclude alex rybak... I'm way too biased for him)

different, unique, catchy, and she's so into it.

chickennnn

[Netherlands] i don't get why white singer and all 4 band members/dancers are black....
i feel racist for using these terms....
song's not bad

[ireland] mmm niceeeee
though i refer to this song as gay dancers song....

[cyprus] hair flicking like crazy
amazing dancing

[Italy] ooo not bad, but what deep and meaningful message are they trying to say?

effects of wars in general?

salvador without his hair tired up hmmm

*tied

Cyprus getting so many points so far. dat hair flicking

these points are... hm, the ones at the top are still pretty close to each other, huh

the top countries are still pretty close with these jury votes..... no clear winner. Kinda surprised Austria, Sweden and cyprus are doing so well

ehhh i dunno what to think with the leading countries. i guess songs this year are mostly not bad, they're nice, and not the kind to make me addicted to them? i dunno....
Austria and Sweden, so high up.... wow

Austria Sweden topping the jury votes. i think Israel was 3rd? interesting

looool Australia gets only 9 points from televotes ouch
we did reasonably ok for jury

sweden 4th bottom for televotes?! audience goes crazy?!

that's crazy. 2nd for jury, 23rd for audience

loool austria in the middle and audience goes crazy

Ukraine at bottom for jury, then near top for audience
same for denmark

huge boost for italy, wow

israel wins audience votes, ah

cyprus was 2nd

whoooo israel!

these televotes reaaally change everything, lol. their opinions vs jury can be so different

Ukraine is such a chuuni though. That whole thing is the Textbook Example of chuuni

Alex Rybak's the fairy in the fairytale, clearly. That's his secret to antiaging

lol

I'm not a fan of Israel's entry nor her lyrics though :'D

and to me her act touches on cultural appropriation

i just felt this year's entries in general weren't very strong? i dunno... i haven't been looping particular songs long after the comp ended like with past years
