I liked it.

Horrible finish. I hope the second semi is better!

I thought it was very sweet!

Scaffolding has wiped him out…

Is the fancy scaffolding supposed to make up for the weakness of the song? (finally caught up and now live!)

He reminds me of Peter Andre for some reason 🤔

Nah

Shit, I think I've booked this lot to put up my fascias and guttering.

Theo thingy , he looks lush , but what a strange song

OMG I'm blind from the lights!!!

Probably his cousin

Awful voice?

Well San Marino look like they have had a good night. Bookies now think they will qualify

Get these women off. 😣😣😣

Yeah it was too much

Lime green suit 😁💪

I’ve just caught up. I’m disappointed no one else like Icelandic Jedward 🤣

I did have to nip out in the middle though so missed some of the good ones based on what’s been written so far

AND THE MN ROUND UP....

1 ICELAND Jedwardson’s Worzel Sea Shanty
2 POLAND Generic CatSuit Woman with her Pet Dragon
3 SLOVENIA This Years Upside Down Boring Ballad
4 ESTONIA Offensive ‘Italian’ Businessman’s Ode To Coffee

13 NETHERLANDS Silk PJs, Violins and Wiggly Arms
14 CROATIA Pantomine Bran Flakes Tasty Tasty Very Very Tasty
15 CYPRUS Da Vinci Scaffolding

Right, 5 to bin. I reckon:

Croatia
slovenia
belgium
albania
poland

They’re pretty nifty

I think they should. They put the effort in.

Can we narrow it down to six instead…there just aren’t ten good enough songs.

Have you seen his new film trailer? Jafaican. Steel yourself.

So in case you missed it DON'T VOTE TONIGHT.

Thank me later.

Sweden have this in the bag! It’s a banger
