Han Moldova! That's wacky and catchy.

Welsh Megaman

Moldova will never, EVER let you down in the ‘WTF’ stakes!

deisemum

Beastie Boys meet folk.

alchemist33

I expected a bit more staging but good performance and the Moldovans should do the job.

archfi

Moldova will do a Norway if they qualify - huge votes from public, very little from juries

Say Your Number

Won't win but it was good fun

Jesus this is a comedown

Back to bland after the craic of Moldova

Indestructable

It's a seance

Say Your Number

Saint Sister-ish

embraer170

A really decent bunch of songs tonight.

RobertKK

Portugal are let down by coming off such a lively song, which had one wanting to dance.

archfi

Portugal is actually good.

Welsh Megaman

YOLA vibes from Portugal.

I think that’s her name anyway.

alchemist33

You'd never see Portugal submit a song about a train journey from Lisbon to Madrid, dry shites

_gir

Zzzzz

Hurrache

Portugal quite good too, despite the tempo slow down.

PsychoPete

Are they trying to resurrect a body or something

Say Your Number

It's not bad, but it's jarring to hear it after Moldova.

Welsh Megaman

Benny Benassi!

Do that song with the power tools video!

Hurrache

Portugal wouldn't be out of place on BBC Radio 6 or any of the indie shows on other stations. Very good song actually.

A fave as a teen

Cody montana

Portugal was boring

Welsh Megaman

Uh-oh…interpretive ‘darnce’.

_gir

For a song called guilty pleasure, this is pretty boring and unsexy

PsychoPete

Croatia going down the Taylor Swift route here

gmisk

Bulgaria have had some crackers recently...this isn't one of them

4Ad

Some ride that Croatian one..

Expunge

Oh, bit of expressive modern dance with this wan from Croatia.

jaffa20

Croatia are the same odds as us and sounds about right. This is about the level of what Ireland would send.

RobertKK

Croatia should qualify., nice song.

Say Your Number

It's a bit bland

Probably will do well

Say Your Number

No King Diamond this year? 😓

archfi

Italy looks so fcking tempting (the country)

I want to know exactly where those postcards are from

gmisk

I like the Netherlands had a flutter on top 10 for them ages back...and top 10 for Norway (the audience will love it)

Another Adele imitator

Darkglasses

Kelly Osbourne

Say Your Number

Looks like the singer Duffy.

Has she been hiding in Denmark since 2009.

Didn't expect it to go pop-punk.

I agree; but I’ll get behind the Irish act as it’s not easy to go over and perform to millions of people. For the record I think Virgin media should be given a chance to come up with an entry next year, the Eurovision full stop should be banned from the Late Late Show 65 year old plus audience, and there should be serious questions asked as to were those really the best 6 songs chosen for the Late Late finals this year or is it a case of who knows who in RTÉ.

I also disagree with Linda Martin in an interview she gave in a paper recently saying Ireland should keep sending ballads. All we’ve done for many of the last entries over the years are send poor to mediocre ballads.

Welsh Megaman

Dave Hill from Slade wondering who stole his outfit.

PsychoPete

Denmark doesn't look very believable as a band

RobertKK

I like the music but maybe she needed to rock it a bit more.

alchemist33

I can't help thinking of the word "lame" for Denmark

_gir

Denmark going the maneskin route

gmisk

Surprised moldova getting away with the hey ho let's go....

odyssey06

So we're getting oil from Marocko now

deisemum

It's the year of the suits.

Doctor Jimbob

Thought that was class but a bit of pop punk will always win me over.

It’s no Moldova mind you.

Welsh Megaman

Haven’t heard the Norway song, only been judging them by the outfits.
