Funny when you hear Irish people who know nothing about Eurovision say Jedward were an embarrassment, and there you have them in a segment with Eurovision legends Verka, Loreen and Conchita. They definitely made their mark.

Exactly, they are a novelty act but very decent bubble gum pop, but put on a show.

Outside chance for Greece

I actually think Greece will make it pretty comfortably, it's catchy I can still humm it.
Estonia I don't see it

Busi_Girl08 · 20-05-2021 08:43PM

These Eurovison winners have aged well.

ACitizenErased · 20-05-2021 08:44PM

That Niamh Kavanagh song is still a banger

dark crystal · 20-05-2021 08:44PM

Portugal my faves tonight.

Liked Poland, Georgia (!), Iceland, Switzerland & Denmark too.

Cannot see the attraction with Switzerland's song!

RobertKK · 20-05-2021 08:44PM

They are getting great use out of that small house.

I think to the casual viewer that sort of makes sense though, they don't really understand that the Eurovision is a bit of a different animal.

Duncan looked so much better with the longer hair

gmisk · 20-05-2021 08:44PM

Nothing as good as Euphoria imo

Nothing special about Estonia but ticks a lot of boxes and have a lot of neighbours :P

Greece was good tbf.

I really hope it's Paul Harrington talking about Rock n Roll kids on Saturday, probably going to be Linda though

His voice is unreal the song is lovely, the staging and his styling I think might cost them

ACitizenErased · 20-05-2021 08:45PM

Did she just give out to him

archfi · 20-05-2021 08:45PM

When you think of it, there is really only two acts that made it to global superstar status in 65 years!

20-05-2021 08:46PM

Jedward qualified twice, the good eggs.

maude6868 · 20-05-2021 08:47PM

Ruslana was a great winner too.

archfi · 20-05-2021 08:47PM

Soldi should have won in 2019!!

Celine and Dustin?

All that fandango · 20-05-2021 08:47PM

Is Duncan Laurence actually Dutch?

RobertKK · 20-05-2021 08:48PM

I guess Dustin is forgiven.

Quazzie · 20-05-2021 08:48PM

Good ould Dustin.

captbarnacles · 20-05-2021 08:48PM

These pieces are bad Sweden's love live peace peace was just too good.

odyssey06 · 20-05-2021 08:48PM

Snippets of Can-linn there for hot dancers and well Dustin!
I thought he would have been excised

Daroxtar · 20-05-2021 08:48PM

Nothing really stood out for me tonight. The first semi was much stronger. I think Ukraine and Lithuania will be hard beat

I wouldn’t call Donna and Joe global superstars, to be honest. :pac:

I'd be very surprised if Ukraine and Lithuania are top 5

20-05-2021 08:49PM

They need to bring back Lena for the past winners.
