I REALLY EXPECT A TRAIN FROM MOLDOVA AND A HOUSE FROM ARMENIA ON THAT STAGE

[PB-hfvf]

The Netherlands : I have a sad song.
Portugal: I have a melancolic song.
Organisation: Hmm. We can't put these two together. We need someone between them.
Moldova: CHISINAU-BUCAREST !
Master Yoda: Very strong potential this trio has.

I love that there are so many Slovenia supporters in this comment section. I also think it‘s really underrated but there is so much love for them here in the comments. I hope they will qualify they are in my top 5 ❤️

[Yasmin-tzqz]

Lithuania PLEASE qualify 😭

And she did! Muvva of the year

[naborrodriguezdieguez]

Albania, Ucrania, Portugal, Austria, Grecia,

Moldova, I know that you are being very undervalued in all the rankings, but you have my full support.
The song is fun, it gives very good energy. They deserve to go to the final

[Zaratrustme]

We need:
Albania's strenght
Lithuania's elegant presence
Ukranian's ethnic rap
Netherland's wounded soul
Moldova's circus
Portugal's nostalgia Lofi chill
Austria's uplifting energy
Greece's love story
Norway's 1.200.000 years old banana

You decide the last one. I'd say Latvia's salad would be a great add (like with every meal).

[SirVuki]

I’m definitely really liking Slovenia this year

It’s truly a lost opportunity that Latvia isn’t opening the contest with “instead of meat I eat 🥦 and 🐱”

Hopefully, Slovenia will be the little song that could... I also like Albania, Portugal, Lithuania, Ukraine, Moldova and Greece. But actually, I don't dislike any song in this semi - each has something going for it ❤️
