Cyprus and Australia should be replaced.

Ah lads how did Greece get through? Awful generic tripe altogether.

:eek:
Can't believe Finland didn't get through. They 100% deserved it more than Greece did.
Also think Latvia should have made it.

Am happy for Belgium though, even if her live performance is a bit shakey the song is definitely good enough to deserve to be in the final.

Cyprus was awful.

Latvia should have been in the final.

Richard Hillman

Got 7/10. The wrong ones were not that great tbh.

Eyes Down Field

Australia isn't the first non European country to take part. For some reason Israel have been​ in it for years.

Woah that was close, I was ready to flip the table if Belgium didn't make it :eek:

Portugal is beyond sh1te but it'll be something to laugh at Saturday night if nothing else

First time hearing tunes...I love Portugal's.
Go Portugal!

I'm delighted to see Belgium there but she looked petrified on stage. Very disappointing for Finland, wonderfully sang and staged, it definitely deserved to be in the final. Portugal got a great crowd reaction, could place very high on Saturday night. I was surprised to see Greece and Cyprus in the same semi. I the Greek girl was very ropey vocally.

Agree RE Greece she was badly off key...but the song stood out as a bit of cheesey dance pop

Why all the love for Belgium? Seemed like a poor performance to me, will she be any better on Saturday?

Moldova was everything that is stupidly, insanely Eurovision.

Less screechy ladies in dresses, more cheesier-than-an-over-ripe-camembert-Europop.

Can't believe I'll miss the final on Saturday due to sister's Communion. The only thing I look forward to all year has been robbed from me, I go through 364 days of filler to get to Eurovision and it's been snatched. Another 368 days to go!

The studio version is great, even if it didn't translate to stage too well.
It is genuinely one of my favourite songs of 2017 so far.

Finland & Latvia instead of Cyprus & Poland would have been perfect. But 8 right is not so bad

125/1.
Others 100/1 and 150/1.
I.e. not a chance.

No hope at all, won't qualify on Thursday.
But looking at the odds, they have Italy 8/11, then Portugal 4/1.

Then a massive gap back to Bulgaria at 14/1

I heard Portugal tonight, it was boring and forgettable. No idea why that seems like the only threat to Italy winning this.

Moldova was the best! Delighted they went through!
