Moldova was epic sax guy - Sun Stroke Project in 2017.

Shame they are not in this year, I remember their first entry with Granny banging the drum.

Thought so.

Surely Ukraine through

Phew!

<snort>

Surprised Azerbaijan didn't get through.

Belgium out in the semi two years in a row.

They were put as 6th in the overall betting to win the whole contest!

Thats a shock.

Ruined the Belgium guy's birthday.

Wow. No Belgium. That will shake the market up a bit.

Belgium out - really surprised!

Very weak vocal. He wasn’t the only one, though.

Still loving the Netherlands. It won't win.

Yayyyyyyy!!!! But baby Barry Manilow needs to up his game for the final

As always, this has been great- and I can't wait for Thursday.

I'm still a bit peturbed by Poland though.

Loving the nerdy vibes this year

Agreed.

Its especially bad as the Belgium guy had an absoluete SHOCKER with his vocals last year.

Some heads to roll there.

Will Ireland make it through on Thursday?

Yes because she’s Norwegian and all the Vikings have got through so far 😬

Feeling bad for Red Sebastian.

Glad Ukraine got through.

Is this a dance re-mix of this bloke's song - that he did with his brother(who is not there) ?

Well let’s hope so.

Dislike that moustache.

Norwegian vikings loved Ireland and most of the elite wanted to be buried there.
