Post by: turnaround on May 10, 2013, 02:46:01 PM
Happens next week. Who will watch. I know our Aussies will :D

There will be 2 semi and the big show on Saturday.

Any favourites?

I liked
AZERBAIJAN - Farid Mammadov - "Hold Me" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CGZ4vmQUH34)
RUSSIA - Dina Garipova  - "What If" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ym68oXYYftQ) "It starts to pick up after the chorus"
BELARUS - Alyona Lanskaya - Solayoh (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Szf_HOmW5p0) "Nice uptempo"

I like Cascada too.

I love Germany , Denmark , Azerbaiyan(Amazing ballad) and Norway. I like Sweden, England , Russia and Ukraine.

I think Denmark will win , it's the most fresh song.

I like to hold off my Eurovision listening for the year right up until the finals, so everything's fresh and exciting (or not). Once it's over I go back and hunt down any decent entries that didn't make it. Last year my favourite was "Amazing" by Danny Saucedo.

That's a Melodifestivalen entry.

So what's everyone's opinion on the first semi?

I had a top 5:

1) Russia
2) Denmark
3) Ireland
4) Estonia
5) Ukraine

Glad all have gone through.

Looking forward to semi 2.


Agnes and Darin will perform.

Loreen will perform on Saturday.

Yeah I know, I meant any songs that were intended for Eurovision but didn't make it. Most of my favourites end up being Melodifestivalen songs.
