According to blogs Samra was sick. Her backing vocalists saved her, but she must have floppped in the jury score. I still can't get over the fact that it was supposed to Molly Pettersson Hammar's (Maltese backing singer, AKA the one who hit the high note) Melodifestivalen song.
Personally I liked Douwe's song, his voice is incredible.

I hope it was just that because I really like her and I have a bet on Azerbaijan for top 4

Spain. Performance full of energy- middle of the order, just before everyone gets bored, and they could make a late, late surge what with the new voting.

The song is a bit meh, but it's relatively different. I'm worried for Armenia, Malta, Czech Republic- as we've seen since the producers have been picking the running order, these ballads/general love songs tend to become unrecognisable from each othrr.

Danish song is very underated, Denmark have a good record when Sweden have hosted it, won on the last two occassions in 2000 I think it was and 2013 when the amazing Emmelie de Forest won

Politics have been kicked up at Eurovision today over Jamala's song. Also Iveta Mukuychan waved the flag Nagorno-Karabakh which is under the control of Armenian forces despite being officialy part of Azerbaijan. Link to the article here:

I like Lithuania's song, and the music video was recorded in Stockholm. I hope they make it to the final.

I'm actually liking Latvia, and Juust- he's just come down with that Sanmarinese throat infection.

Talk about destroying your own song, poor from Poland, he should have kept the same and not changed it
