2023 Eurovision Semi 1 - Long Live The Queen (of the Kings)

[4rkidz]

I liked Finland

 

[tony]

I loved Finland

 

[sus2850]

Almost all the relevant songs were in that semi.

 

[beepbeep]

Finland, Moldova, Portugal for me
Croatia for the craziness

 

[miffy]

I’m glad UK can’t vote tonight as I’d be stuck! I quite like a lot of them without being completely obsessed by any.

 

[MsZem]

Gangnam style but make it Finnish.

Gangnam Style, but if it had a baby with Hatrid Mun Sigra.

 

[marbri]

I do hope Ireland squeaks through because I think they were good enough to qualify. Fingers crossed!

 

[miffy]

If I had to pick 3 songs I’d pick Norway, Moldova & Finland. But for performance I’d add Malta & Croatia.

 

[Ananas Astra]

Finland, Moldova, Croatia, Czechia, Malta and Switzerland for me.

 

[marbri]

Gangnam Style, but if it had a baby with Hatrid Mun Sigra.

Hatari walked so Kaarija could run.

​

 

[allezfred]

I do hope Ireland squeaks through because I think they were good enough to qualify. Fingers crossed!

I have zero confidence that Ireland will go through.

 

[4rkidz]

Oh I am excited we get to vote as the rest of the world how long do we get? I’m torn between six, Portugal, Croatia, Israel, Moldova, Czech and Finland

 

[my little pony]

1. Finland 2. Moldova 3. Israel 4. Croatia 5. Norway

 

[miffy]

I do hope Ireland squeaks through because I think they were good enough to qualify. Fingers crossed!

They were robbed last year too! I still have ‘That’s Rich’ on a playlist even though it’s not my type of music at all.

 

[marbri]

I have zero confidence that Ireland will go through.

I know the odds are not in their favour but there were some pretty shitty acts tonight, hope dies last lol. I know we aren't going through so I can hope for at least the other I*eland.

 

[4rkidz]

Oh this is lovely the dance and song from the Ukrainian young woman.

 

[SHARPIE]

A lovely dual cover of “Ordinary World”.

 

[airgelaal]

I can't understand how to vote in the app

 

[PRlady]

I’d vote for Switzerland, Portugal, Finland and Israel but don’t feel like donating the Euros. Very classist!

 

[allezfred]

Ordinary World has never sounded so poignant.

 

[Hanna]

Another number

 

[marbri]

Homework for me tonight: find out what Serbia and Croatia are singing about.

 

[allezfred]

Am fairly confident about being in and out. And then it’s a toss up…

 

[allezfred]

Calling Rita Ora a global superstar is a bit of a stretch.

 

[Ananas Astra]

Am fairly confident about being in and out. And then it’s a toss up…

I think Norway is also out. Along with Ireland, Azerbaijan, Netherlands and Latvia.

 

[marbri]

Anyone understand the significance of the girl with the red ball?

[sus2850]

This is a sequel to this performance

They were my favourites back then

 

[Ananas Astra]

Homework for me tonight: find out what Serbia and Croatia are singing about.

The German commentator said something about Serbia. It's a song about just wanting to sleep during the pandemic and how depressed it made him. And also about being aware of the evil that is around us and that you actually have to wake up and face the dangers etc.

 

[marbri]

I think Norway is also out. Along with Ireland, Azerbaijan, Netherlands and Latvia.

I'd be surprised if they are out considering Finland and Sweden can vote for them tonight. I would guess they could get 18-20 pts from that alone.
