I mean, the bookies where close lol. The ones that didnt qualify where the bottom 3 qualifiers according to bookies. And the ones that did where the top 3 non qualifiers.
I didn't listen to the songs before the contest this year, but the hype about Albania did reach me. After hearing it, I don't know what this hype was about. Very overrated song, and the staging was...odd, to put it mildly. Albania has always sent interesting entries, but not this time imho.
De diepte has been one of my favourites for a while, and the performance was amazing. I didn't expect it to get through, but the ten finalists certainly demonstrate that one of the main things people vote for are songs that stir their emotions with honesty and apparent simplicity.
Really was one of the most suprising semi finals of all time! I think we all were in shock with the results. Good Luck to everyone that made it on Saturday!
On par with Semi final 1 in 2018 one of the most shocking results (although I would prefer if surprise qualifiers would been announced in the end, like it was in 2018 with Albania and Ireland).
what was surprising about it? the only one i was 100% against was switzerland; everything else i either liked, or didn't but at least still fully understood why it qualified.
I'M OVER THE MOON! I didn't thought we could have Portugal, Greece, Netherlands, Iceland and Lithuania and we actually have them all!!! YAY!!! I thought we would lose one or two of them
While I kinda expected Greece, The Netherlands and Portugal to qualify, I wasn't sure about Iceland and actually didn't even have Lithuania on my radar. I'm glad for all of them and especially for the fact that so many women made it to the final, it's amazing and gives us a glimpse of hope that the Grand Final won't be as male dominated as I feared it to be.
@@salinachaaten But I've been listening to them non-stop for 2 months... So I don't care whether they are modern or not, for me they are masterpieces :D
As a Swiss I must say I am very surprised we got through, I was personnality not a fan of that performance and would have preferred Latvia to qualify. Oh well, I am at least very happy for Ukraine, Lithuania, Portugal, Iceland and the Netherlands!
I don't believe, that Albania and Austria did not qualify! They deserve to be in final! Sorry for Latvia and Slovenia... And my congratulations to 10 talented and lucky countries🇨🇭🇳🇱🇲🇩🇺🇦🇬🇷🇧🇻🇵🇹🇱🇹🇦🇲🇮🇸 Good luck in Grand Final 🤗
I am sorry for Ronella, but it's not totally unexpected. Austria I said that live it's something scruch and I said maybe the jury will qualify them, I don't know, but not happened. I said Switzerland could make a big surprize and qualify so it was so.
Albania should be there The judgment from the jury was not right What we need is energy and joyful and exciting in this competition Albania should be there
I know we can't just have 1 final because there are too many countries, but every year I feel bad for those who don't go through to the final, all artists work so hard for this moment 😢
France, Germany. Spain, Italy, England, should give up their final spot and compete in the Semi's aswell, then you have more spots to fill for the finals.
@@makkie211175 at least this year they have competitive songs... it's so unfair when 3/5 of the Big 5 have songs that 100% would never have qualified if they went through the semis. Think of the artists that could have been (deserved to be) there instead!
😅 I never listened to all the entries when they were announced... so when Lithuania performed I was like.. damn look at this cute Lithuanian Liza Minnelli 🤣🤣 I'm in love with her now 🥰 from just one performance 😁
my favs were Portugal, Lithuania, Iceland and Netherlands, i was so damn afraid about NQ of our queen Monika Liugend!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and also S10!!!!!!!!!!! THANK YOU EUROVISION GOD, THIS TIME IT WENT PERFECT
Well.... how about that. This is just proof that staging is crucial to a song doing well. And it's proof that the opinions of Euro fans don't translate to the results.
Most euro fans in my country are 40-50yo and only listen to the songs in the day, and i believe thats the same for most countries, so staging is very important
I expected Portugal to qualify, but was uncertain about Iceland and really cheared, when they were announced. And I was kinda surprised that Lithuania made it and cheered even louder, when the were announced. Thanks, Europe. You showed us taste.
@@in_wino_veritas Yes, I even had to pinch myself because it didn’t seem real. Finally, Europe gave three gemstones a chance to shine in the Grand Final, and it was beyond *amazing* . Even if I fear some of them will be forgotten by televoters/jurors, their messages (Maro’s grandfather loss/Monika’s Lithuanian revival/Systur’s trans activism) are what ultimately matters. 👏❤️
Dear Ronela, Im shocked to see you not in the top 10.. But Im sure u will have a lot of fans and support in the future. Keep your head up and don't give up!!❤
Taste won over overhyped social media stan bubbles! Congratulations for silencing online haters, Switzerland, Iceland, Lithuania, Moldova! Honorable mentions to Latvia and Slovenia whom I also enjoyed a lot and would've liked to see in the finals, but alas, only so many spots
@@baebabylolbye Sending love from Greece, I objectively believe that you'll be EXTREMELY FAIR contenders for the win in the Grand Final, I loved every single second of Kalush's performance and staging! 🇬🇷💙💛🇺🇦
And once again, The Netherlands were the last qualifiers to be announced. Actually the tension was off after Moldova were announced as the 9th qualifiers, because everyone kinda knew what was coming next. (also because they were a safe qualifier and would most like finish in the Top 10 of the Grand Final, but even if it was a borderline candidate, everyone would have become more calm, given the Dutch history of being called last)
Me too. I hoped that they would qualify, but was concerned that they wouldn't make it, I saw both of them in the Top 10 with the juries, but was afraid that this wasn't enough, especially with Lithuania. My guess is that Latvians were 11th overall and kinda edged themselves out by giving her 24 points. Iceland on the other hand had more friends in this race. Lucky about the many women who made it to the final, next to Iceland and Lithuania, there's Armenia, Portugal, The Netherlands and Greece. It doesn't seem to become an overly male dominated final after all.
99 % of TH-camrs channels got it wrong ! Next year I won’t waste my time watching your predictions , bravo Switzerland 🇨🇭& Moldova 🇲🇩!! And the rest of qualifiers 😎
For those wondering why Albania didn't make it,it was probably because the overall appearance and suggestive dancing has a very American aesthetic,Kardashian-esque almost and Europe does usually not favour this sort of thing. This is just my opinion.
I get why people are upset about Albania, me too but she sounded like she was out of breath, wasn't a fan of the camera work and compared to some other performances i liked a couple other song more.
Super happy for Lithuania, I was scared, very happy about Greece, also Iceland, Moldova, Portugal and basically everyone cause they all had really good songs. I don't mind Latvia cause it's not that great, kinda meh for Albania and Austria missing out (very surprised for Switzerland) but I can live with it. Congratulations to everyone! See you on Thursday!
Remember y’all that the fan favourites like Austria and albania most probably flopped cuz the majority of voters didn’t know they were favourites before the show and saw only for the first time the not so Great live pefromances. That made them vote for the faves they had based on the PERFORMANCES instead. That could explain Iceland and Switzerland going through for example. And Latvia had a meme/hit value but there was just a little fan base, the majority of *voters* didn’t apparently just get it... or then just all the old people voted idk this was an iconic mess😇🥶
I agree, Austria was on my top 5 only because I have this song on repeat. I'm obsessed with the studio version but the performance was terrible. But honestly, it's always better when people judge fairly
definitely! eurofan community and the other voters are soo different. for another example, bulgaria has been hated for all the eurofans for months, but i saw soo many people who LOVES bulgaria, and they are not eurofans. that’s really a definition of “herd psychology”
А що не так? Треба радіти своєму життю та життю своїх близьких. Радіти у будь яку хвилину, навіть у такий для нас важкий час. На сам перед, наша заявка виконую багато речей одночасно: 1) прославляє українську культуру та самоідентичність; 2) розповідь історії власного життя самого виконувача, яка близька для кожної людини світу; 3) емоціональне підбадьорювання українців в Україні, українців, які змушені були покинути свою домівку та європейців, які намагаются допомагати нам у таку скрутну годину; 4) ну і показ нашого характеру, що навіть під час війни, ми можемо посміхатись і не здаватись.
So happy for all the qualifiers and sending a lot of love and hugs to those who did not make it. Please don’t be hard on yourself. Big love from Ukraine 🇺🇦
To be honest I was shocked about Switzerland and Iceland didn’t expect them into finals But Im also happy that all my favorites from this semi made into the finals congratulations to all qualifiers and wish all qualified countries good luck at the final from Georgia
Yes, I'm so proud of Sigga, Beta & Elín aka Systur! You were awesome and I'm so happy you're in the final! I'm also happy that all my favorites that night qualified. One of the few semi results that I can find no fault with.
Portugal has qualified 6 times now 5 OF THEM HAVE BEEN IN A ROW IN THE 5TH POSITION. Today I said to myself... we are gonna be next I just know it... and we did
My favourites from qualifiers are Norway, Moldova and Ukraine. At first I wasn’t sure what to think about Moldova’s song, but when I saw it now on the stage it was really good and full of energy. 👍🏻
I am very proud of Moldova, Portugal, Ukraine, Netherlands, Lithuania, Norway, Greece and Switzerland. I didn't expect Iceland and Armenia to make it to the grand final. But I am also happy for these two countries. The big surprise is that Albania did not reach the grand final. "Secret" could not be called a song. Ronela just screams and that's it. And the staging was ... I'd better stop here. I'm ready for the semifinal 2. Good night everyone!
So happy for my country Greece and Amanda! 💙 Also happy for our Armenian brothers ! Good luck to every country !! Ps. You have to vote for Cyprus now 😛 haha
Feel so bad for Albania but I kinda happy for the rest except for one 1 and I won't say who :( and congratulations to Lithuania Moldova Ukraine and Greece ♥️
@@TheMagicAround Cause y’know it feels more complete and you get to see them all, I don’t like when ESC has like 4 hosts and you only remember the two announcing the results.
If you realize, this was one of the quickest results' announcement of the recent ESCs. Even with the part when they connect with Martin Österdahl, it only lasts for 7 minutes, which made everything very fast and there was not time enough to show us the faces of the artists hoping to be announced. It was way less exciting than other years. I hope they change that on Thursday, but they probably won't since there are more songs (one more competing and another more of the Big Five than in Tuesday) and they probably don't want the semifinal to be longer. So I hope they organise better and keep more minutes for the results.
I prefer this way for the semifinals. For the Grand Final they can focus more on building up the suspence. But maybe it is just me, because I found this semifinal to be the weakest, I didn't find interesting most of the songs so I wanted it to end very quickly. Maybe next semifinal will be more exciting.
Yes. I‘ve seen people who said which countries they voted for (you guessed it - Albania wasn’t one of them) and then crying about her not qualifying and harassing Switzerland, Moldova, Iceland, etc.
Nobody is harassing anybody, check out every TH-cam, social media or vote made online that we can actually see ourselves not behind closed doors, Albania was a favourite, therefore it was robbed tonight! If ppl don’t like women in her outfit how do they like man in dresses, I just can’t make sense of how it went down, half of the songs that actually qualified except a few good ones, I wouldn’t listen twice even if I was paid to do so. Support your country instead and stop spilling vile messages!
Buzzing for Iceland and Moldova 🇮🇸🥰🇲🇩 genuinely thought I was the only Eurovision fan who loved them! Ronela was 100% a shock but looking back it was messy. They should have kept the national final staging; the whole theme, choreo, and general staging ruined the song I think, her vocals just weren’t as good either… Plus we all knew that Pia had been struggling vocally to keep up with the song. It just wasn’t a quality performance tonight. Buzzing with these qualifiers but oh my god they gave me a heart attack there with S10!
Iceland is pure music! I was sure from the very first moment I listened to the song they were going to qualify! Χριστός Ανέστη και Χαιρετίσματα από Ελλάδα!
Im glad my top 3 from this semi, Lithuania, Norway and Moldova qualified! Im kinda sad Albania and Latvia didin't qualify but the competition was intense even for the "easy" semifinal. Im not a fan of Switzerland and Iceland but I like the other songs. Good luck to the countries qualified! The second semifinal is going to be such a mess istg
Monika Liu-gend!!! I'm soooo happy she made it! Can we talk about Diodato performance?! It was one of the highlights of this evening! Also super happy for Ukraine, Iceland, Portugal, Greece, Armenia and The Netherlands!
For those who don't understand italian, the "Porca vacca!" at 3:37 kills me every time 😂 It basically means "holy cow" (a little bit more vulgar though 🤣)
My heart aches for Albania😔 I really thought we had a good chance to not just go to the finals, but also rank in a decent spot. Ronela represented us in the best way possible. I just hope that after this, Albania won't go back to its usual ballads😥
Very happy for these 7, they were my favourites: 🇳🇱🇸🇯🇬🇷🇮🇸🇱🇹🇺🇦🇵🇹 A little bit sad for Denmark 🇩🇰, Albania 🇦🇱 and Austria 🇦🇹, who didn't make it and completed my top 10 of qualifiers. Glad to see 🇳🇱 The Netherlands with that beautiful song in Dutch, Monika Liu singing for the very first time in 🇱🇹 Lithuanian in a Final and 🇮🇸 Iceland in Icelandic again, using their platform and voices to support 🏳️🌈 trans people! And impecable voice from 🇬🇷 Greece, very well done, Amanda!
thank you Laura Pausini, for your beautiful and spontaneous words, when they revealed the name portugal as qualified: " muito bom Portugal. Maro-vilhoso !! "
Тhank you very much to all the countries that held the flag of Ukraine, next to their flag. Thank you very much for your support, it causes good feelings 🙏❤🥰💛💙 Thanks for supporting and flag Ukraine 🇺🇦 🙏❤
1. the most shocking here is Swizzie going through. like, most people even didn't think of that. I hope someone can explain logically why Swizzie goes through. 2. Albania, Latvia and Croatia should have gone through.
To be honest, Switzerland was a 100% jury song and i will not be shocked about seeing Switzerland as the jury winner song. Then for Croatia and Latvia, I think in the bookmakers they were definitely out before this semi despite of great lives. Personnaly, I think Albania deserved to not be a qualifier: is the song great ? YES. Is the performance great ? 😬 There was a lot of hype for this song but this performance was not better than her final performance so that’s became a flop. It will be obvious that the song will not be supported by juries and the televoters don’t support enough her to be qualifying. That’s my opinion and I respect totally yours. Sorry for this mong paragraph. Have a nice evening.
I actually am very sad that Austria and Latvia didn't qualify🥺 Anyways, on the other hand I am so so so so so happy to see Moldova there, honestly did not thought to see them on Saturday🤩
For those who see the bookies predictions as a Bible: Chance to qualify for the final: Albania 66% Lithuania 44%, Iceland 34% and Switzerland 33%.
Switzerland was sure qualifier because of the juries
The jury thought otherwise💀
I mean, the bookies where close lol.
The ones that didnt qualify where the bottom 3 qualifiers according to bookies. And the ones that did where the top 3 non qualifiers.
To be honest, the bookies don't mean anything

It wasnt a song, it was a beat, and even the beat wasnt good. They were going "hey!" hey!" to hype us up for something that never happened.
The singing just wasn’t that great
I get why people are upset about Albania, me too but she sounded like she was out of breath, wasn't a fan of the camera work and compared to some other performances i liked a couple other song more.
I don't know why we fail to represent our country with dignity these days.
Super happy for Lithuania, I was scared, very happy about Greece, also Iceland, Moldova, Portugal and basically everyone cause they all had really good songs. I don't mind Latvia cause it's not that great, kinda meh for Albania and Austria missing out (very surprised for Switzerland) but I can live with it. Congratulations to everyone! See you on Thursday!
Remember y’all that the fan favourites like Austria and albania most probably flopped cuz the majority of voters didn’t know they were favourites before the show and saw only for the first time the not so Great live pefromances. That made them vote for the faves they had based on the PERFORMANCES instead. That could explain Iceland and Switzerland going through for example. And Latvia had a meme/hit value but there was just a little fan base, the majority of *voters* didn’t apparently just get it... or then just all the old people voted idk this was an iconic mess😇🥶
But thats exactly how it should be, based on performance and not on popularity
@@rafaelmachado9837 that’s my point! The fan ”Popularity” isn’t that important during the shows with a lot of new watchers who haven’t heard of them!
I agree, Austria was on my top 5 only because I have this song on repeat. I'm obsessed with the studio version but the performance was terrible. But honestly, it's always better when people judge fairly
definitely! eurofan community and the other voters are soo different. for another example, bulgaria has been hated for all the eurofans for months, but i saw soo many people who LOVES bulgaria, and they are not eurofans. that’s really a definition of “herd psychology”
@@samanthajones87886 I know what you mean, Moldova was hated as well by the online community, and they killed it on stage

So sad for Bulgaria tho :(
Такі змішані почуття, коли всі так веселяться і я дивлюся на це з України. Калуш молодці!
Не думаю, що всі вони мали б бути у траурі.

А що не так? Треба радіти своєму життю та життю своїх близьких. Радіти у будь яку хвилину, навіть у такий для нас важкий час. На сам перед, наша заявка виконую багато речей одночасно:
1) прославляє українську культуру та самоідентичність;
2) розповідь історії власного життя самого виконувача, яка близька для кожної людини світу;
3) емоціональне підбадьорювання українців в Україні, українців, які змушені були покинути свою домівку та європейців, які намагаются допомагати нам у таку скрутну годину;
4) ну і показ нашого характеру, що навіть під час війни, ми можемо посміхатись і не здаватись.
А что все должны быть в трауре? Спешу сообщить, что в данный момент в мире идёт более 10-ти войн и половина из них уже не первый год...
So happy for all the qualifiers and sending a lot of love and hugs to those who did not make it. Please don’t be hard on yourself. Big love from Ukraine 🇺🇦
Slava Ukraini ❤️
This Semi-Final was very unpredictable with suprising qualifiers, congratz everyone!
True 👍👍👍👍
I'M SO HAPPY FOR LITHUANIA AHH 🇱🇹🇱🇹
Yess, congrats! I've sent 10 votes for Lithuania 💛💚❤️ Love from Ukraine 🥰
Me too, my friend. Her song is amazing 💖💖💖💖
MEE TOO!!!! such an underrated iconic queen with a beautiful masterpiece song
So happy for Lithuania, we love you Monika, our queen, our mother, our everything ♥️♥️
To be honest I was shocked about Switzerland and Iceland didn’t expect them into finals But Im also happy that all my favorites from this semi made into the finals congratulations to all qualifiers and wish all qualified countries good luck at the final from Georgia
Yeah me too I'm so happy for Iceland and Lithuania 🥰
Also I hope Georgia will qualify thursday 🤞 I looove this song so much ❤️
Thanks from Portugal.
@@clementrapiteau604 I hope too, Thank you for your support 🙏❤️❤️
Iceland was a good surprise, Switzerland was...
"Muito bom, Portugal! Maravilhoso" 🇵🇹
I seem to be the only one even remotely happy that Zdob şi Zdub qualified. Deserved, good luck.
Same here, I'm so happy they're going to the final 😍🇧🇬❤️🇲🇩
They deserve the final
Nah! I am happy too!
HE HO LETS GO!
amazing guys and imo they won 2011
Nooo i love them
s10 last,, i almost collapsed 😭
Haha been there before 2018 with ireland hearing our name announced sending us to the final for the first time in 5 years
Yes, I'm so proud of Sigga, Beta & Elín aka Systur! You were awesome and I'm so happy you're in the final! I'm also happy that all my favorites that night qualified. One of the few semi results that I can find no fault with.
I didn't thought the first 5 qualifiers would make it
🇵🇹🇵🇹🇵🇹🇵🇹🇵🇹🇵🇹🇵🇹🇵🇹🇵🇹🇵🇹🇵🇹🇵🇹
BRUH me too
OMG SAME
I knew Armenia and Portugal would but the rest I agree 🤣
Armenia and Portugal were safe tho
I felt bad because of Denmark not qualifying,it was one of my favourites but congrats to Iceland for making,it was a pleasure to see them through:)
I agree with you. Denmark was the BEST!!!!!((( 😢
Over the moon for Lithuania and Portugal. But Switzerland making it is probably just a late April Fools joke. 😂
I'd say Iceland as an april fools joke instead of ALBANIA
Stop being so disrespectful
@Beau Black lol
@@escspirit5532 I’d say Albania had the worst song this night
not a nice comment bro...
Greece touched our hearts tonight! 🇬🇷
Yes, Amanda is the best
She was unbelieveable 💖💖💖💖
Portugal has qualified 6 times now
5 OF THEM HAVE BEEN IN A ROW IN THE 5TH POSITION.
Today I said to myself... we are gonna be next I just know it... and we did
My favourites from qualifiers are Norway, Moldova and Ukraine. At first I wasn’t sure what to think about Moldova’s song, but when I saw it now on the stage it was really good and full of energy. 👍🏻
Norway was a lock to make it through a real dark horse assuming the Jury doesn't screw them over like 2019
Thx from Ukraine ❤️
The same
Y'all don't know how loud I SHRIEKED when Monika made it though😭😭 Queen deserved it sooo muchh❤️❤️
She was one of my three big picks for qualification along with Netherlands and Portugal. I'm so happy all three got through!
MARO- S A U D A D E * S A U D A D E ❤ 🇵🇹 Well done girls !
I am very proud of Moldova, Portugal, Ukraine, Netherlands, Lithuania, Norway, Greece and Switzerland. I didn't expect Iceland and Armenia to make it to the grand final. But I am also happy for these two countries. The big surprise is that Albania did not reach the grand final. "Secret" could not be called a song. Ronela just screams and that's it. And the staging was ... I'd better stop here. I'm ready for the semifinal 2. Good night everyone!
Buna, buna 😀
So happy for my country Greece and Amanda! 💙 Also happy for our Armenian brothers ! Good luck to every country !! Ps. You have to vote for Cyprus now 😛 haha
🇦🇲❤️🇬🇷❤️ 🇨🇾
Greece was fantastic and unbelieveable and unforgottable. I have really loved it. I hope Cyprus can qualify. She is so talent singer. Good luck 😊😊😊😊

Feel so bad for Albania but I kinda happy for the rest except for one 1 and I won't say who :( and congratulations to Lithuania Moldova Ukraine and Greece ♥️
It's Switzerland 💤
Thanks 🙏🏻🇺🇦😭
LET’ S GO MOLDOVA!
My favourites in this group - Lithuania, Ukraine and Moldova - valio!!! 🇱🇹💕🇺🇦
Loved the fact that all the three of them were announcing
Just curious - why is it important for you?
@@TheMagicAround Cause y’know it feels more complete and you get to see them all, I don’t like when ESC has like 4 hosts and you only remember the two announcing the results.
12 points go to Greece,kisses from germany
Я из Украины и голосовал я (честно говоря) за Норвегию.
А ведь реально прикольная песня, прям танцевать тянет😄
Так за своих и нельзя , так что все норм )
@@ЕвгенийКовальчук-й9и к сожалению, да...хотя так справедливо
Мне ещё понравились Голландия и Болгария, ну и Молдавия тоже хороша. Все номинанты молодцы’
@@vexagopuli ага ...а то б Британия со своими 90 миллионов населения все выигрывала б )
@@ЕвгенийКовальчук-й9и ахахахаха мені здається якби так і було і брав участь Китай то він завжди перемагав ахахаха😂😂😂😂😂
If you realize, this was one of the quickest results' announcement of the recent ESCs. Even with the part when they connect with Martin Österdahl, it only lasts for 7 minutes, which made everything very fast and there was not time enough to show us the faces of the artists hoping to be announced. It was way less exciting than other years. I hope they change that on Thursday, but they probably won't since there are more songs (one more competing and another more of the Big Five than in Tuesday) and they probably don't want the semifinal to be longer. So I hope they organise better and keep more minutes for the results.
That's true
Agree! It was so boring and fast.
I prefer this way for the semifinals. For the Grand Final they can focus more on building up the suspence.
But maybe it is just me, because I found this semifinal to be the weakest, I didn't find interesting most of the songs so I wanted it to end very quickly. Maybe next semifinal will be more exciting.
Don't cry and shout about Ronela and Albania.
Comments don't lead to results.
Vote. Just vote.
UK Viewers Couldn't Vote tonight , Norway and Austria were my Two favourites
Yes. I‘ve seen people who said which countries they voted for (you guessed it - Albania wasn’t one of them) and then crying about her not qualifying and harassing Switzerland, Moldova, Iceland, etc.
Nobody is harassing anybody, check out every TH-cam, social media or vote made online that we can actually see ourselves not behind closed doors, Albania was a favourite, therefore it was robbed tonight! If ppl don’t like women in her outfit how do they like man in dresses, I just can’t make sense of how it went down, half of the songs that actually qualified except a few good ones, I wouldn’t listen twice even if I was paid to do so. Support your country instead and stop spilling vile messages!
Buzzing for Iceland and Moldova 🇮🇸🥰🇲🇩 genuinely thought I was the only Eurovision fan who loved them!
Ronela was 100% a shock but looking back it was messy. They should have kept the national final staging; the whole theme, choreo, and general staging ruined the song I think, her vocals just weren’t as good either…
Plus we all knew that Pia had been struggling vocally to keep up with the song. It just wasn’t a quality performance tonight.
Buzzing with these qualifiers but oh my god they gave me a heart attack there with S10!
Iceland is pure music! I was sure from the very first moment I listened to the song they were going to qualify!
Χριστός Ανέστη
και Χαιρετίσματα από Ελλάδα!
Im glad my top 3 from this semi, Lithuania, Norway and Moldova qualified! Im kinda sad Albania and Latvia didin't qualify but the competition was intense even for the "easy" semifinal. Im not a fan of Switzerland and Iceland but I like the other songs. Good luck to the countries qualified! The second semifinal is going to be such a mess istg
Monika Liu-gend!!! I'm soooo happy she made it! Can we talk about Diodato performance?! It was one of the highlights of this evening! Also super happy for Ukraine, Iceland, Portugal, Greece, Armenia and The Netherlands!
For those who don't understand italian, the "Porca vacca!" at 3:37 kills me every time 😂 It basically means "holy cow" (a little bit more vulgar though 🤣)
Força, Mora! Força, Portugal!
So happy for Maro, she has such an amazing and respectful grace! Love from Italy 💚
My heart aches for Albania😔 I really thought we had a good chance to not just go to the finals, but also rank in a decent spot. Ronela represented us in the best way possible. I just hope that after this, Albania won't go back to its usual ballads😥
PORTUGAL WELL DONE
Here to appreciate this method of Qualifier announcements
Lithuania!!! Very nice!!
Very happy for these 7, they were my favourites: 🇳🇱🇸🇯🇬🇷🇮🇸🇱🇹🇺🇦🇵🇹
A little bit sad for Denmark 🇩🇰, Albania 🇦🇱 and Austria 🇦🇹, who didn't make it and completed my top 10 of qualifiers. Glad to see 🇳🇱 The Netherlands with that beautiful song in Dutch, Monika Liu singing for the very first time in 🇱🇹 Lithuanian in a Final and 🇮🇸 Iceland in Icelandic again, using their platform and voices to support 🏳️🌈 trans people! And impecable voice from 🇬🇷 Greece, very well done, Amanda!
So happy for Moldova!
THANK YOU EUROPE FOR VOTING IN PORTUGAL 🇵🇹 they were so happy 🥺🥺
Omg my heart literally was pounding I was so happy my fav the Netherlands was qualified
Me too, my friend 😊😊😊😊
6:37 she looks verry sad im so heart broken for her she definitely deserved to qualify for the final
LMFAOOOO SO HAPPY SHE LOST
Portugal, Norway and Moldova
thank you Laura Pausini, for your beautiful and spontaneous words, when they revealed the name portugal as qualified: " muito bom Portugal. Maro-vilhoso !! "
When I heard Switzerland as first I was like “ok this will be a mess” 😱
Same 🤣
same thing LMAO, after Iceland was announced and I started panicking
Same 🤣🤣
Same😂😂😂
IM SO HAPPY FOR MOLDOVA!!!😭
Them announcing Switzerland first caused chaos throughout all of Europe.
Laura saying "PORCA VACCA" was the best thing ever 🤣🤣

Not really apart from Iceland and Moldova
@@dankmemebobby6997 And partially even Switzerland
@@dankmemebobby6997 Iceland wasnt suprise, Moldova was a pleasant suprise
@@exoduswick156 I expected Slovenia or Austria tho
Seeing Marius Bear so happy makes me cry, knowing what happened in the final :(
1. the most shocking here is Swizzie going through. like, most people even didn't think of that. I hope someone can explain logically why Swizzie goes through.
2. Albania, Latvia and Croatia should have gone through.
I think the juries love switzerland
I agree about Croatia
To be honest, Switzerland was a 100% jury song and i will not be shocked about seeing Switzerland as the jury winner song.
Then for Croatia and Latvia, I think in the bookmakers they were definitely out before this semi despite of great lives. Personnaly, I think Albania deserved to not be a qualifier: is the song great ? YES. Is the performance great ? 😬
There was a lot of hype for this song but this performance was not better than her final performance so that’s became a flop. It will be obvious that the song will not be supported by juries and the televoters don’t support enough her to be qualifying. That’s my opinion and I respect totally yours. Sorry for this mong paragraph. Have a nice evening.
Switzerland was touching, beautiful, magnificent, he has a great voice, and it absolutely stood out in the first half.
Croatia was The best in my opinion🇭🇷❤️. I dont understand how Swiss Norway or Moldavia get to the finał and they dont.
I actually am very sad that Austria and Latvia didn't qualify🥺
Anyways, on the other hand I am so so so so so happy to see Moldova there, honestly did not thought to see them on Saturday🤩
