Slovenian Michael Buble

I'm 53.

Polish bondage dragon lady was 53??

I need more booze.

Oh piss off

Slovenian Gary Barlow!

Aw come on with the depressive songs

This is shite - I remember from a preview event a few weeks ago.

What was the name of that doctor off Holby City? I can't bloody remember...

Him.

His nice looking, but the song is just dirge

The lyrics are interesting 🤣

He's going red.

"I don't want to be here"

If Bublé has managed to be possessed by both Ed Sheeran and Morrissey. 'Spose it's possible.

Why is he upside down ?!!

I've heard this song before.

Except I don't think it was this one, just another song that sounds just like this. Or the fact this sounds like lots of others.

Dramatics lol

Didn’t like Iceland’s - Jedward 2.0

Poland was okay, loved the staging and effects

Slovenia’s is bloody depressing. He reminds me of someone and I can’t put my finger on it.

The polish dragon lady has been on the fillers.
How much longer is this song ..

im sat here judging like Simon cowell saying this is all shite, yet I couldn’t sing in key to save myself lol!

Why does he wear an 80’s glittery suit with his depressing ballad ?

They needed a gimmick because the song is so bloody dull

Sincerely hope the act following this is someone in just a satsuma-coloured jock-strap, singing a song called Bingy-Pingy.

Hope Mr Slovenia gets through but it wasn’t bonkers enough for Eurovision imo

The upside down bit made me wonder if he’s a vampire.

No, I thought he might go into a Buble number, but I was wrong there lol
very wrong

Slovenia: Klemen – “How Much Time Do We Have Left”. Overly sentimental for my taste. Not Qualifying
