Eurovision Semi Final 1 - No Spoilers

[RedToothBrush]

Welcome to this year's MN Eurovision fest!

Tonight gold and white are the ‘In’ colours. There's the obligatory wind machines and pyro. Watch out for dancing surprises cos there's No Rules and a distinct issue with the wardrobe department!

Don’t miss: Uk, Ukraine, Fan fav Croatia, WTF Finland hmm yes and hell yes Ireland.

Housekeeping: Out of the other 15 entries, only 10 will go through to the final. The semi-final is TELEVOTE ONLY. The UK, Germany and Sweden will all perform tonight as part of the main show in a change to previous years although they have already automatically qualified for the final.

Ireland my fave!

Johnny Logan is a legend !..
There is Abba and then there is Johnny.

Dh had the same problem! He said it works now but looks like might not count?

Qualifiers SHOULD be

Croatia
Finland
Luxembourg
Moldova
Lithuania
Ireland
Australia
Ukraine

Plus two more.

He still has it eh?
Good old Johnny

I have voted… my home country of course… Finland 🇫🇮 💥💥💥

DD predicts the following qualifiers:
Luxembourg
Croatia
Finland
Lithuania
Ireland
Cyprus
Iceland
Ukraine
Australia
Slovenia

I think she’s probably close, although I’d say Portugal over Iceland.

I love this version !

Wtf is this nonsense. What the fuck were they thinking with this? "Johnny Logan Euphoria? Yes that'll be amazing".

Just no.

Truly appalling. Cringe.

Portugal

Slovenia or Moldova.

God no.

Kill me now.

I quite like it !

Didn't watch but listened on Radio 2 meant to add! By far stand out vocals.

G'wan Johnny! 🇮🇪

That's exactly what they thought

🥱

I fancied JL so much when he won with Hold Me Now.

@RedToothBrush 👏

AUSTRALIA Didgeridoo. Wahoo! Looroll Dress.

JL used to make some cracking videos back in the day . Lots of sea and wind swept beaches

The original J-Lo still got it

Who let Kenny Rogers in?

So have Luxembourg just not bothered entering since the 90s?

Good to see Luxembourg back
( not that I realized they were not in for years , but hey ho)

They took their bat home and flounced.

Italy flounced for years as well.

It's more met gala these days by the looks of it this year ! Gone all posh
