Mr FFA is somehow disappointed Icelandic lady didn't make it instead of Malta.

 

[Hanna]

Eys, Iceland is the only one that I think wuzrobbed a bit.

Finland's singing sucked - they can only blame themselves.

 

[SamuraiK]

Really surprised about Iceland not making it,Also i think im the only one here who liked the estonian guy but I agree he had no charisma.

Oh and thankfully the greek mess didnt make it.

 

[Lara]

Good selection IMO! I'd have selected Iceland above Netherlands though.

 

[itsartemis]

Too bad about Iceland. The rest was expected.

 

[allezfred]

No Finland or Iceland?!

Finland was awful live.

 

[allezfred]

Press conference is now live!

Great results!!!!!!!!!!! I'm so happy for Czech Republic and Croatia - welcome to the final, at last! I'm shocked about Iceland not making it, I'd gladly put Greta in the final instead of Zoe (too sugary sweet, imho). Greece not in the final for the first time like ever?

Btw, respect for Petra Mede, she was spot on tonight . Not quoting verbatim, but close: "Grab your towels, let's come together!", "So nice to see all these boys. And a girl" . How can one not love ESC in Sweden!

 

[allezfred]

Greece not in the final for the first time like ever?

Bosnia-Herzegovina too.

 

[shah]

Bosnia-Herzegovina too.

Ah, indeed! But B&H was painful this year - Deen's faux drama and exaggerated gestures, barbwire, cello, random rap part - to sum up, one big mess! I'd rather hear "In the Disco" again .

The rock band from Cyprus is in woohoo
