    Catching up on the performances now...disappointing live vocal from Ireland. Staging concept was good but too focused on Lesley instead of bringing in some backing dancers / characters to take the pressure off her which would allow her to deliver a better vocal perhaps.

    I'd say that is pretty spot on.

    Possibly Croatia swapped in for someone maybe Israel? Vocals a bit ropey in that clip

    I'm thinking maybe Sweden

    Predicted qualifiers:

    Lithuania
    Russia
    Sweden
    Cyprus
    Croatia
    Belgium
    Israel
    Romania
    Ukraine
    Malta

    Although I'm thinking Norway will probably get there instead of Israel, but I'll stick with those ten. Lesley no hope unfortunately. Cyprus could be the shock NQ if we get one.

    Juries always vote for Sweden tbh, regardless.
    They will get through I would say.

    Arcade only became a proper worldwide hit during the lockdown thanks to Tiktok.

    Yep, definitely. They gave Leslie too much to do and it was a big song. They could have had her move around lot less and the vocals could have been much smoother.

    If the black lady presenter were to sing a song I think she would sound like Ronan Keating....

    Sweden (rightly) failed at the SF stage a few years ago and weren't they shocked as they thought they just had to turn up.
    They really don't deserve a spot with that tonight.

    I'm entering next year with a song called "urine soaked veranda", accompanied by a dozen pink flamingoes and a tambourine for added stage presence. Can't be any worse than the drek on display tonight.
