Latvia 🇱🇻 Dons so deserved 🎉🎉🎉 the final. He was like a fresh air - so elegant, simple and true to himself and everyone. Love it ❤
I agree! Amazing performance!
Yes, I wanted him so much in the finals! I don't even like that kind of music 😂 but he's such a lovley and inteligent guy ❤
This was perfect ❤️🔥🥰
Good voice, good song, no naked people,no fireworks. He getting in is good news 😊thing for all of us.
My favorite🇱🇻
I'm from Latvia and I don't care where we place in the final. I'm so overjoyed that we qualified. Honestly I also gasped because I've forgotten how it is to qualify. Thank you Europe❤
Sad for Belgium but in tv it was a bit shaky and too bright. Still love the song ❤
Of course, I always consider getting in the final as a win already. Gongrats neighbours, from 🇪🇪
@@bechante All Baltics again in final since 2015 🇪🇪🇱🇻🇱🇹 good luck
Same!!! I'm also Latvian and I couldn't evan talk after they qualified. Overfilled with joy I was ❤❤
@@BeatriseKrokforda
Honestly so happy for you guys 🥹 good luck in the final tonight! Only one winner, but the goal is to have a good performance to be proud of in my opinion. I’ve liked his song from the start. Reminds me of imagine dragons somehow.
Love from Norway❤ 🇳🇴
Latvia represents the spirit of this competition, very good surprise 💖
Totally! Nothing better than a shocker Q or win on the day of the contest ❤️
It's ridiculous to see Wiwiblogs, which claims a leading position in covering the Eurovision Song Contest, seemingly ignoring the Israeli entry, especially given its strong standing at 2nd in the odds for ESC 2024. This oversight raises questions about the comprehensiveness and neutrality of their coverage.
So so true and so pathetic
My favorites in semifinal were LATVIA, Estonia and Norway and all those three went in final IAM so happy. I am happy for Georgia too.
Norway🎉🇧🇻🏆❤️
Glad to see Latvia and Georgia back in the final after being out for many years ❤
Ireland too
How can they not like Latvia?! I belted out that chorus so many times. Love his singing and speaking voice. Such a genuine person also.
this is a song with good vocals and deep lyrics. An honest song and performance and it seems people like something raw and honest for a change. Eurovision is a spectacle though. If all songs were like this, I wouldn't like it either.
It’s killlllllllllling me SLOW!
I just love how people are shocked about Latvia going to finals! The song is beautiful, with meaning, Dons vocals are amazing. It's just shows how sad is society, that cheers about some dumb, naked ass fool's on stage, than deep, meaningful words. Go Latvia! 🇱🇻
Latvia going trough against any odds and predictions love it and love it ❤️
Israel is a high quality performance, so emotional and looks so great.
l think this is the dark horse...
I love Belgium so much. Feeling so sad for him.
I am so sad
The song was, sadly live vocals weren't
And the whole stage was messy
Song was one of my favouirites, but the vocals at the beginning ruined it :(
The same here. I thought the song was moving and authentic. This is not the first time that Belgium gets underrated. And, I am not Belgian, but love their entries a lot. Is something wrong with me 😅?
Yep. But Belgium songs the last years werent as good, as used to be. So I guess its a kind of fair of no classify. Last year was terrible, and had lot of point in the semifinal and final..
So more sustance and less campo messi
choreography for next year
I believe people voted for latvia because it was such a breath of fresh air in between all the very in your face performances. There were way to many songs that were loud in this semi
Israel in your face
I don't even remember Malta.. I think you have to keep in mind that there are so many watching the songs for the first time, and I'm sorry but there has to be more than a good voice. And then you have Estonia and there's just something about that song that's catchy, and made me like it.
Do you have ears?? Israel🇮🇱🇮🇱 had undoubtedly the best song and best vocal performance by farrrrr but you all seem to ignore that. It's ranked in 2nd place in the odds for a reason. not a very objective analysis from a bunch of "progressive" haters. Eden is a Diva!!
איך אומרים אצלנו על אנשים כמוכם? אתם בוז ואנחנו דוז
Nobody cares about your propaganda song …
I know that support for Latvia was about as hard to come by as finding Dratini merch at a Pokemon Centre store, but Hollow is my favourite song at the contest this year, so I am thrilled to have Dons in the GF.
(I'm literally late to the party because Eurovision airs live at 5am in Australia and my body decided it needed the sleep.)
I think Norway vs Ireland FTW, unless something goes monumentally sideways (right/wrong), either for them or for someone else.
Me, again, after things actually went more sideways than a pair of boxer shorts run up a flagpole. Even though I don't think I had anything to do with it happening, I sincerely apologize.
What's more intersting is how much WiWi blogs will continue to ignor Israel which is second in odd now, the feeling is that even if Israel would win, they will still continue to talk about Malta...
So true
Totally
I saw on our Italian television that Israel had around 39% of the votes in our country
That are Ukraine 2022 winning vibes 🇺🇦🫣😆
@@MarcoHeijligers Rigged vibes ye
So, Israel hacked the televoting.
@@lolzol437 It makes sense though. Israel has supporters so it probably mobilized a lot of voters. (And those who are against Israel are powerless because you can't vote against a country.)
Yes but this is weird since most people are critical of what israel does. @@patu8010
Israel , Greece, Luxembourg ❤
Nemo's performance is just amazing!!!! Co-writing the song, the meaning of the song, the vocals always on point, hitch-hiking to Malmö, this risky staging..... That's why for me Nemo is the winner, even when someone else will win the trophy.
And good luck in Grand Final to Croatia (hope Marko will take it), Israel, Ukraine, Norway, Portugal, Lithuania, Ireland, Switzerland, Sweden and Cyprus!
Why did Malta choose the dance break section for the voting recap, it’s a song contest not a dance contest, especially as the first entry voters that missed it, didn’t have any musical reference in the recap for Malta.
Israel was the best of all.
Pure art 👏👑
🇩🇪❤️🇮🇱
🇮🇱❤️
Israel will win in a televote landslide, looking at RAI's Italian televote results. They are 5 *times* ahead of the closest contender, which has never happened before, not even in 2022 with Ukraine.
You should talking about that.
I am sorry, but this is practically the end of Eurovision as a "uniting" song contest considering the context this is happening, and the amount of countries which will boycott next year. The future of the contest is at stake right now. (even if that is not at all the highest priority about this situatuon)
I wonder if EBU will take action to prevent another Ukraine 2022 scenario
Good, I hope they winn and put an end to this political BS of the the supposed "musical competiton".
That is sooo true! I think many of us including those who's countries are currently at the very top of the odds already started unliking many ESC related social media pages. The atmosphere at the finals in and around the Arena on Saturday night finals considering the political situation/EBU stance might be literally on fire. And I don't mean it in a good way! The EBU might be the greatest loser ever from the next year onwards in the amount of number of fans dropping. The question is do they really dare to sentence the show to death?! Ofc they could also rely to some extent on politically immoral hypocrite voters/fans.
The future is in stake the Jews are coming 🧟♂️🧟♂️🧟♂️
Just please vote for your fav, i know i will. Hope Israel dont win.
My top five are Switzerland, Croatia, Armenia, Norway, and France!
I'm sad that Belgium didn't qualify. I loved the song, but the stage needed more to grab the viewer's attention. I'm sorry for Czechia as well; I loved her performance.
Overall this was a great semi-final 2...can't wait for Saturday Final...Special shout out to Iolanda; Crystal clear voice with an esthetically pleasing powerful performance!
Cmon guys, Malta was obvious non qualifier from the very beginning, no offence to Sarah, she was amazing, but from the whole package this performance didn't have any chance
Also Malta has never finished in the televote top 10 in any semifinal ever 🤐#
@@Splatoni They did in 2021
Agree ! Vocals and only was a reason to don’t qualify
Vocals? What about Austria? Malta was amazing much better than Latvia Estonia and Austria
Very disappointed!!!!! Malta deserved to be in the Final
Latvia's performance was close to perfection, I almost cried. I think absolutely everything worked out for him last night (looks, vocals, emotions, song), everything. I also think that it had a greater impact on those who saw and listened to this song for the first time.
I am delighted with Latvia. I am sorry about Mustii.
But he was too fast in the beginning, off pitch and then drowned out by the backing track. But I'll always listen to the studio version! ❤
Wiwibloggs, your views/predictions about Latvia tell more about you rather than the 'majority' of views
I know. They are too invested into all these songs and almost have collective view on them which doesn’t necessarily reflect the views of people who watch all these songs for the very first time. Me and my Aussie friend were watching all songs for the very first time and majority who got praised here we didn’t even remember. But we both agreed Latvia stood out…
They have the tendency to cheer for the ones who climb in the odds completely dismissing the other good acts. Like notice how they ditched Switzerland like it doesn’t exist anymore even though it’s still the biggest contender. Their favourites flop from year to year cause they are superficial in their preferences. I feel why Deban always disses the fakeness of the team at the point haha
@@heyman-ng3te France will flop hard with the televote at least....
What do you mean? Literally no one though they would go through (not being a hater, I love Hollow)
Well, all the polls - bookies' and fans' - left Latvia out of the final show. It was not only Wiwiblog's opinion.
Israel.. elephant in the room in this discussion. Now second favourite and televote favourite...
The doctor prescribes vocal rest for William.
hahahaha, yes he does!
From doubters to believers
My dark horse are Armenia and Israel thenbest of the night
GEORGIA❤❤
@@megikopadze2930 i have seen 90% of the Show and I don't remember Georgia. I have to do a rewatch before saturday.
SO HAPPY FOR AUSTRIA 🇦🇹
LATVIA DESERVED AND AM SO HAPPY, COMING FOR THE JURY 😭😭👏🏻👏🏻
Austria was terrible. You could as well put a DJ on stage who presses a button and let's all rave
@@wardje5195 stay mad HAHAHAHAHHAHHAA
France, Spain, Georgia, Italy, Israel, Latvia should be in Top 10
We must put an end to all those 1 singer+ 4 dancers acts. So fed up with them, cause we have seen them 1000 times before. So, Malta, bring up smth more original next year. No surprise that the public went for a good singer like Dons. He was unique in this field and a very good singer. Malta was cliche.🎉
It was different for Malta actually and it wasn't boring. No matter what we bring to the stage you always got to say something about it.
It is essential to have balanced and diverse acts throughout with the aim to keep it entertaining. You're only saying this as a conformity.
Malta did something original and different the year before and it didn’t pay off 😭
True. Personally, I'm tired of Vedettes,,,,
we think you all are antisemitic to completely ignore Israel achievement
🇮🇱❤️🇮🇱❤️🇮🇱❤️🇮🇱❤️
According to the latest report from the odds, Israel is in second place and they probably won semi final 2… and probably the entire Eurovision. Israel we love you!!!!!
🇮🇱❤️
The Netherlands 🇳🇱 joost nailed this song and look videos of crowds when this song is performed . The roof is blown away !! First found the performance a bit minimal but after all the crazy stages this realy suprised in a good way !! A rollercoaster song a bit tempered but that made it so much greater
This is my response to your question at 16:34 sweetheart: Israel is undoubtedly the dark horse.
GREECE!! MARINAAA!!!! SO PROUD!!!❤❤❤❤
Jonathan is so anti-Israel it's unreal
Israel will never call you! Remember that!
Amen!
I really liked Latvia ❤
Possible winners: Croatia, Ukraine, France, Switzerland
Dark horse: Ireland, Norway, Israel, the Netherlands
I'm so mad they put Ukraine 2nd in the final. 😭
@@aekellytheir country is in war, Ebu doesn't want them to win again
Yep, Im avtually thinking it could be between croatia and france
@@JanJuliusssand if italy’s televotes are telling then Israel definitely too, she’s 2nd in the odds rn as well
@@aekelly Televote is open from the get-go. It could be an advantage now
For me Swiss gave the best staging i have ever seen ..... there performance was just mind blowing ... i dont see how it wont win ....
He copy harry styles .
VOTE FOR 🇨🇭NEMO🇨🇭IN THE GRAND FINAL🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 HE'S SUCH AN ✨INCREDIBLY GREAT✨SINGER❤❤❤
Let's talk about Israel. They qualified 5th, which indicates a very strong result. They bumped at the betting from 8th to 2nd. I bet that they won this semi final. I will be surprised if this is actually happened, but all indications point at that direction.
Israel took 40% of vote from Italy. So yeah, she's a contender to win.
@@AmberJays You mean their lobby bought the votes.
Or Italians voted number 14 because Angelina was the 14th to perform probably thinking they can vote for their own country 😂
@@MultiSky7 - RAI published the results of Semi Final 2 votes, go look at them.
Israel took 40% of the vote, after that it was Netherlands on 7%, then Georgia, Switzerland and Armenia on 6%, then the rest divided up among the rest.
@@AmberJays I know that RAI "accidentally" published the votes, but you have no clue of what I'm talking about, do you?!
The strenght of Eden gives me everything. Sooo professional ❤️
People shouldn't watch the odds maybe, that's the biggest sh*t in a music contest which could destroys the excitement...
For what it's worth, my winner was Switzerland. Best performance and incredible vocals! This deserves to win, actually.
Israel was amazing
Tell this to the pompose monster 👹
🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱 so proud of Eden
Switzerland, Israel and Norway just ate it all
Such a great semi final, but these ones are beyond the earth level
Switzerland awesome .
Switserland didnt do as well in Italian televote though. Norway was even last in their televote xD
@@-_YouMayFind_- Even if it is final real votes - still 37 countries voting:)
And Albania did well in these leaked results, it didn't help :)
🇮🇱❤️
@@-_YouMayFind_- Because Italy is a conservative country, a lot of church's seat kisser live there 😅
I did NOT expect Estonia at all!!! But in a way they deserved it, they were delivering something original (over Malta). And I did expect Latvia!!!
Definitely Ireland is the dark horse and probable winner, if running order doesn’t ruin their chances. Croatia is also the other entry I’m rooting for. We Spaniards foresee a great rank for our entry. Greetings from Spain.
You so afraid to remind Israel 🇮🇱 The second in the odds . Its time to make esc great and normal again!
All because of William (mifletset)he has negatively affected all the bloggers he will remember never resilience
Israel was amazing!!! Go Eden!!! 🤍🔵🤍🔵🤍
They decided to not speak about israel ! The real winner
That William guy is a hypocrite
@@littlemissdisney6162no he isn’t
@@nzkid2599he kinda is tho
Woke stupidity
As they should.
Croatia 🇭🇷 delivered in the first semi final, The Netherlands 🇳🇱 nailed the second! And now listen to the pop professors about the great song of Malta 🇲🇹🫣😂
❤🇪🇪❤🇮🇱❤
Suzanne and this handsome guy next to her have taste because they mentioned Switzerland
12 points and more to the Netherlands! Great streak of blogs and good luck with the final stretch.
Just remember- next time in israel- you are NOT welcome ❤
Amen
Not surprised Malta did not qualify and that Latvia did - Great performance by Dons. I love the Italian song but the staging was awful.
The best preformens end the winner is israel ,amazing voice end preform 🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱❤❤❤❤❤❤🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆👍👍
Sad, how you talk about Latvia
Dark horse: Armenia. Jacqueline is a breath of fresh air.
I love her energy! I'm voting for them in the final 🙌
armenia is definetely one of my favourite acts this year
You were proven right!
People nowadays don’t pay attention in the art. They’re more attached booties and personal music preferences. I don’t listen to rock/metal, but I have to say that Ireland was the biggest surprise this year, and after couple of time rewatching the performance, I can definitely say they were the Best overall and deserve to win.
Israel nailed it 💙🤍💙
I like that the bookmakers didn’t see this coming at all. They have been so right so often about so much the last couple of years, it was almost no longer a surprise. And now this shows that they can also miss something completely and be wrong
Israel with Eden Golan such a powerful song and Eden woww she is full of glory a winner 🇮🇱🙏
Why Wivibloggs not boycott Azerbaijan in 2021 and 2022? But boycott Israel now in 2024? Thats giving no meaning for me. I need a answer!!!!
Azerbaijan isn't even close to genocidal.
Jesus, you guys could not be more delusional than this...
Do not take the Lords name in vain
Go Marina, gooooooo! 🇬🇷🥇🏆🇬🇷
Happy that Norway and Switzerland made it, but sad for Belgium 😭
Norway :-) , than lSpain.. buth best voice Israel
Norway, Italy and France🇳🇴🇮🇹🇫🇷❤️
Norway has the best song and the best performance by far🇧🇻🇧🇻🇧🇻🏆🙏🌺
Switzerland, France and Norway were my favorites today ❤🇨🇭🇫🇷🇧🇻
Israel nailed it❤ wow what an amazing show😊
What a complete and well-planned disregard for Israel, throughout the Eurovision season and also in this video with the exception of two references one of which borders on anti-semitic hatred. It's a great song and very talked about, which jumped from eighth place to second place after the second semi-final, but politics has washed your brains. Wiwibloggs, I am so disappointed in you.
Israel is my winner❤🏆
Can I just say congratulations to the organisation of this Eurovision edition. A marvelous, fast paste show with super enjoyable interval acts.
Malta fell victim to the overload of girly bobs but she got enough exposure to start making it in Europe without Eurovision.
As random fan who mostly looks on with my phone in hand I sat and just watched the whole show without being distracted by anything.
Bravo 🎈
Im shocked.. israel second in odds .. omg again 2022 repeating 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
This is wild.. Croatia needs to win
@@sinead187 me 2 , EBU really love to mess things up
Not just 2022, 2018 too, they're pros in cheating. Google Eurovision cheating scandals and they come first. They sure know how to kill not just a whole nation but a whole contest as well.
Why are you shocked? You think everybody thinks like you?
Israel went higher in the odds due to italy releasing their votes. Ofc that someone who got 40% of the votes will go up in the betting odds. It means nothing. Or at least we'll see if it means on sunday
I hope Israel won't win not only because I think it's an absolutely boring ass song, but also cause if they win they'll be the only one country in next year's Eurovision lmao
I love this group! Tom and Jonathan provide amazing perspectives, Luis provides different angles, Cinan is such a hype man and overall positive person, Suzanne is such a sympathetic person who gives her opinions carefully, and William keeps the conversation going and grounded! Love you all! ❤
🇳🇴 Norway is the only country whose song looked more impressive in the national selection show ... I was underwelmed! 😐
Speaking of 🇱🇻 Latvia, don't forget that Dons is one of the top performers for whom the jury will give a lot of votes! ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you for speaking up for Italy William 👏🇮🇹👏 Overall, what a phenomenal year this has been so far. Sweden have been amazzzzzing hosts
I'm happy Israel, Norway and Austria did qualify. Sad with you, Malta...
🇮🇱❤️
How can u be happy with Israel. It's a shame that she got in. Israel should be banned just like Russia.
Your this scared to mention Israel? I hope we win so you won’t have a choice 🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱
The second semifinal was boring, Käärijä was the highlight of the night but it was too short.
The only pergormances that stood out were Switzerland, Norway, and Israel.
Latvia was touching, it made me emotional and he deserved the final.
Very hard to watch...it's a pity to watch as today's Eurovision viewers, journalists are influenced by bookmakers, but not song driven..quite unprofessional..
P.s.Malta was copy paste of slomo Spain and is glorified ,cmon😬 And to say that she worked very hard- who didn't?
Israel's vocal is 100 times better than Norway... Don't get all the hype for Norway at all.
No!
@@sig9105 Norway and Ireland are my favorites for a win + silently hope Latvia will do good but could be slightly biased there
I’m Israeli and wish people voted based off the songs. It’s getting annoying honestly
But I do agree with you, it"s fine to be political and fine to have opinions and boycott whomever you think deserves it whenever you want to but not on Eurovision night.
Several people will vote for Israel, not just because the song and singer are great, but even more because its unfair what silly at the end dangerous people like Greta Thunmberg said. There are Naxis!!!
I support Israel the best performance of the night. And my seccond favorite the first is Croatia just because never won (despite Yugoslavia win ofnthe past. Also.I like Armenia
A bit late for that 🙄
🇮🇱❤️
Almost without mentioning the great Israeli song. Shocking 😱🇮🇱
I cant explain my happiness for Georgia rn i knew nutsa could do it 🇬🇪🇬🇪❤️
It was a terrible surprise to me that Denmark did not advance to the final. While I never expected Latvia. Greetings from the Netherlands
How thought Denmark would go through? Uneventful, boring song. Why would it qualify?
@@ksica There is no such thing as a boring song. it is a matter of taste. Latvia was a eventful, entertaining song? I liked Denmark too, but there was tough competition. In previous years it would be in the final easily.
My dark horses: Norway, Armenia, Portugal and Georgia. Without a doubt the winner will be Croatia
Greeceee ❤❤
Biggest surprises, Latvia and Belgium.
