    When I tell you the amount of internal screaming(in a good way) I was doing when Serbia, Portugal, and Slovenia all got called was insane. I was in class at the time(yes I'm American I'm sorry) and just had it on while doing work so I couldn't exactly do much else. So happy all of them are through and overall really happy with the qualifiers. Feels weird to be completely satisfied after the results are announced.

    Ireland is legitimately the most elevating staging I have ever seen in my life. I avoided all rehearsal stuff and I am so glad because let me tell you my jaw was on the floor, I was gasping every five seconds, AND THE FLOATING CANDLES WHAT THE HOW DID THEY COME UP WITH THIS. Let me tell you I gave at least half of my Aussie votes to Ireland and I was on the edge of my seat during the announcement. I always thought the song was great but staging could be make it my new winner. We will have to wait for Italy's but I am SO SO IMPRESSED!

    Congratulations Tom. Ireland is in the finals and big meow to Ireland😺😺.I was already happy after they called the first 3 countries (🇷🇸🇵🇹🇸🇮). Raiven's tears made me so happy, she maybe didn't expect to Q in the first place. I'm happy that I managed to get 9/10 Q correct which is very good😄😄 (I put Cyprus out and Poland in). And Poland's NQ is not sensational, but it's a little bit surprising. After the first few countries I was a bit surprised when she called Cyprus.
    The show was amazing and I can't wait for Thursday.

  • @mccaroni3
    @mccaroni3 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +25

    So happy with these results 🥳 Serbia, Slovenia, Ireland, and Portugal were all songs that are in my top 15 of the whole contest that I was going to be devastated to see NQ, but now I get to live in a world with ALL of them in the final 💓💓 I'm especially proud of Ireland, I've loved the song and stage performance concept from first watch and never doubted Bambie Thug to give us something remarkable in Malmo, but the journey they've had with the rehearsals and getting the fandom/betting odds's support after people realized how incredible the staging and their performance is... Honestly, up there with Croatia in terms of a Eurovision underdog success story, both as an artist and in Ireland's recent history in the contest 😭

    Congratulations to Bambie Thug! 🤩This was amazing! The performance was breathtaking! I wouldn't be surprised if they actually won the televote! It seems that the exorcism on stage worked very well and the spell of non-qualifiers is lifted!!! 😂The best performance of the night for me, and I thought that everything was high quality. Tough competition this year! But they could do very well in the final, with such artistry and originality. 🤞
    So happy that Portugal, Slovenia and Serbia made it too. That was quite a shock that the 3 of them went through, so... televoters can appreciate good balades too!
    For the final, I hope the camera cuts for Croatia will be better... not enough on Baby Lasagna, I thought. Especially at the right moments... for example "meow cat, please meow back"... not on him. 🥲 And also, more eye contacts with the camera, please! It is of course a difficult exercise... the artist must give everything they can for the TV viewers who will be voting and at the same time it's a live performance in a huge arena and they want to please the crowd. But just a little bit more for the TV audience! 😉

    They called the three ballads first & it's so GOOD that all three of them went through. Then i only had to wait for Ireland.
    I know as a Dutchy how it is to be called last or the one before last. They do that almost all of the time to the Netherlands & Belgium. There's a clip of the Belgian presenter cursing when they were called first, because that was so unexpected. Now to Luxemburg as well. 🙂BeNeLux baby.
    But oh my goodness. I SCREAMED when they called Ireland. So so sooooooo happy & so deserved!

    Ireland 🇮🇪 , best Eurovision performance in history - Bambie, every Goth and alternative soul in the world is insanely proud of you!🇮🇪🧙‍♀️👑🖤 This is theatrical extravaganza, a storytelling experience in 3 minutes, a journey that casts a spell over the viewer just like Bambie is evoking enchantment on stage - and on top of that a once-in-a-lifetime performer, an addictively refreshing song without boundaries, and a staging that doesn't only captivate the dark souls who feel drawn to witchcraft anyway, but also the masses who have no choice but crowning the witch! Bambie is not only an artist who renders me speechless on a daily basis, but also a heartwarming human being who can make countless hearts jump for joy with their infectious smile. This is a performance that will be eternally engraved in the history books, and I will rewatch it over and over again until my last breath on earth!🖤✨️🌙

    Tom the Irish performance ranks among the greatest in Eurovision history, alongside classics like "Rise Like a Phoenix" and "Riverdance." From start to finish, it captivated me; every second was enthralling. Initially overlooked in a simple studio setting in Ireland, Bambie Thug's performance mesmerized TV audiences. It stands head and shoulders above other acts this year and many others, truly on another level.

    I have never been genuinely stunned by a Eurovision performance in my life, but for that three minutes I literally did nothing except stare at the TV with my jaw practically on the floor. I really hope they win 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪 CROWN THE WITCH 👑👑👑

    So pre-broadcast i got 9 out of 10 but after the broadcast swapped Slovenia for Australia and voila 10 out of 10. All well-deserved qualifiers - Croatia still my number one followed now by Ireland who staged fabulously. Tom came here just to see your reactions - priceless! You should advertise Mastercard "Ticket to Malmo xx, Accommodation in Sweden yy, Eating in Sweden zz...seeing your country qualify for the final...priceless"

    Had Poland in over Slovenia on my prediction spreadsheet. Didn't compensate enough with that draw, and the diaspora point kept them above the threshold. On the night, she was the one that got lost in the first half, I thought, and not Cyprus as I feared (they were the ones in 10th in my final on-the-day predictions). Slovenia were 11th, though, so nearly had it!

    Knew you'd have a great reaction to finally having Ireland in the final! They so deserved it with that performance! Really happy with these qualifiers! I'm a little surprised Poland didn't make it but their delegation kind of "Roxen-ed" her performance if that makes sense.

    I was always planning on giving Ireland a vote since it was in my top ten before the semis and I liked that Ireland was trying something new. They ended up being my number one performance of the semi and possibly the entire competition. Loved the camera angles and how Bambie elevated the song live. I understand now the high betting ranking and can see winner potential in this but then again, my last years number one performance was Blanca Paloma.

    Very happy for you and Ireland! And very well deserved, that staging was lit! Absolutely fantastic, original, and elevating the song so much.
    Overall, few suprises. I was slightly surprised maybe with Serbia, which I always saw as a qualifier but found slightly underwhelming. And with Poland not qualifying, but I can't say it was a huge surprise.
    Personally I dislike Finland but knew it was very likely to qualify. And I liked Australia better than Luxembourg, but I understand why Luxembourg made it and Australia didn't.
    Mostly very happy that Portugal made it, but tbh I never doubted it would 🙂.
    Have so much fun cheering Ireland on in the final!!

    All the ones i wanted to get through did for the first time. So glad serbia, portugal and slovenia made it. Bambie completly blew me away and ireland was actually my favourite of the night followed by ukraine. I haven't been following so much this year so i had only watched some countries's acts beforehand (very few, including my country - portugal) so it was really cool that all my picks made it. I also don't know what the acts on semi 2 are but having just seen this first semi my winner would very happily be either ireland or ukraine.
