    Does Marty really need to talk over the songs to tell us not to vote when "NO VOTING FOR ROI VIEWERS" is plastered across the screen?

    Watch on Youtube with no commentary - so much better without Marty "I love the sound of my own voice" Whelan!

    I would vote for Portugal or Denmark if I could ... think they might need the votes more than the Swiss

    Can we not vote ?

    Marty should let people know to be safe

    That Denmark song reminds me of Bobbysox who won in the 80s

    Yes I almost didnt survive the Georgia Albania or Latvian entries.
    Think we had some casualties there.

    Great song from Switzerland but I wonder if the French will kill its chances in the final.

    I don't know why so many are rating San Marino. It was very bland except for the presence of an American

    Massive problems with the Irish Entry, and it was never going to win, but based on what I saw tonight it and all of semi final one should be through to the final. With a few exceptions from tonight. Not sure about San Mario it may make it past with a name attached.

    Iceland - not the best but because of last year I place it first
    Portugal
    Switzerland - Bit over the top but
    Austria - I am at the point that I really don't remember
    Finland - Very early 2000s angry pop heavy meatal rock
    Bulgaria - A bit boring but a nice song all the same

    Then Georgia is an outlier

    and then

    Poland
    Czech Republic
    Moldova
    Eastonia ---> Most likely to get to final
    Albaina
    Grease
    Latvia
    Denmark ---> very Eurovisionary and clearly they did it in jokey way so it might get through for nostalgia.

    But weather I was paying more attention Ireland and the other non-finalist from semi-final 1 where all in the wrong group.

    Even Norway for me does better than these (at least they got though).

    Portugal was an absolute hit clearly, it's about to overtake Bulgaria in the odds
