Dante Posted May 10, 2023 Posted May 10, 2023 Good for Serbia going through after being given the worst order position for 2nd year in a row.
Johnny Jacobs Posted May 10, 2023 Posted May 10, 2023 Ok so the top 5 views so far are Croatia 396k Israel 330k Sweden 258k Finland 254k Norway 219k Oh wow.
Ghibli Posted May 10, 2023 Posted May 10, 2023 Finland, Sweden, France & Spain all first half hmmm it's giving sabotage for Ukraine to win again.

They drew their halfs so it's not a sabotage But I do agree that it's going to be messy to have all the main favourites in one half. Second half is going to be all the boring songs from SF2. Israel and Croatia are going to benefit from it
Lil Mxnster Posted May 10, 2023 Posted May 10, 2023 Unpopular opinion but I just watched the performances and... Germany >>>>>>>>>> Italy >>> France
Fevesy Posted May 10, 2023 Posted May 10, 2023 Yeah with Croatia qualifying I can see them being the televote winner over Finland.
little legend Posted May 10, 2023 Posted May 10, 2023 Not the hosts shamelessly put themselves at #26 The fraudulence
little legend Posted May 10, 2023 Posted May 10, 2023 I'm surprised that Croatia still hasn't skyrocketed inside the top 10 at the betting odds

It's such a shame too, the song is fabulous, her persona is perfect for the song, and I love the staging for the most part. I am concerned for her, tbh. I personally think she must've been frightened af to sing up high on that platform hence the shaky vocals. Poor legend.

JennyWayne Posted May 10, 2023 Posted May 10, 2023 Hoping Czech Republic finally gets a good running order in the final after they got shafted in 2016, 2018, 2019 and 2022
kitasss_vlc Posted May 10, 2023 Posted May 10, 2023 Noa was just ok but there are not many dance acts this year so she is lucky... plus that 2nd half placement just secured her a top5 spot in the final... Portugal will probably open the final... but maybe Poland if she gets 1st half... Killer first half, whoever is doing the RO is gonna get dragged no matter what it's decided...
zzmyth Posted May 10, 2023 Posted May 10, 2023 can someone please enlighten me at why is Finland so liked? The song is so mediocre... the dancing is silly... the costumes are.... a choice.... WTH?
P!nk Forever Posted May 10, 2023 Posted May 10, 2023 Serbia is such a joke. I hoped he would have flopped badly. But the public fell for his mumbling Billie Eilish schtick.

WTH? the song is in my Top 15 but the performance really isn't working for me. trash vocals, ugly outfit, too much backing track. I think "nice/quirky guy" mediocrity tends to be overhyped by certain people. I don't think locals will vote for Finland significantly more than Croatia, Sweden, or Ukraine. the jury certainly won't put him above Sweden, Italy, France, Cyprus... he feels like the type of Eurovision fan bubble favorite that will yield disappointing results.
Fevesy Posted May 10, 2023 Posted May 10, 2023 I personally enjoy Finland with all the different genres in the song, the performance (both UMK and Eurovision) is super fun, and despite it not being absolutely perfect that in a way is endearing. Comparing it to Sweden which always put on a perfect, pristine performance (which is not a bad thing) maybe this year I prefer a bit of grit and lightheartedness that Finland gives.

The only issue of Finland's performance is Käärijä's vocals but even that doesn't matter as much because the whole entry is outstanding: charismatic artist, techno/colorful lighting, queer/camp motives, catchy Rap/EDM/childish melodies... Everything is captivating since the start and it really feels like a game-changing winner
Dante Posted May 10, 2023 Posted May 10, 2023 Lord the stage is so small and the arena as well. Looks like a talent show or smtn...

Gossip_Boy Posted May 10, 2023 Posted May 10, 2023 That was such a great experience in the arena. I’ll be surprised if Käärijä doesn’t win the televote. BY FAR the biggest reaction from the audience. Everyone was losing it. Biggest disappointment for me has to be Vesna. Everything felt so…muted. Shame they couldn’t bring the stunning imagery of the music video to the stage because I really do love the song. Noa was great and brought some much needed energy. Can’t wait for the second semi (even though I only really like one song lol).
