    Think Emmy needed to come off the stand run to the front and go for it

    100%. She's too distant with the longer camera shots, too static and also what was the focus meant to be? Her? Her brother? The dancers? The background display? It lacked a focus and stage animation for the most part. A staging mess tbh.

    This is the biggest piece of jury bait I've ever seen.

    Austria is good, but I feel like they copy Nemo from last year.

    Upcoming gigs and events: The Pillowman, Rhiannon Giddens, New Purple Celebration, Foil Arms and Hog, Nova Twins, Tanita Tikaram, David Byrne

    The only lyrics I can remember so far, and I will be subconciously singing in the morning is 'I bet you want a taste of the milkshake man'.

    So Australia for me so far

    I can easily see Austria winning. It will hoover up the jury votes

    Emmy's performance tonight was good. It will get through to the final. But I don't think it will win it. It doesn't have the intensity what we had from Bambi Thug from last year.

    Armenia's song was really good however. The song has a good message in how to be a survivor in Europe today.

    The Austrian appears to be having a nervous breakdown there now

    Jaysus that's some voice on the Austrian lad! Staging is excellent. Not mad about "popera" as a genre so wouldn't be a song I'd listen to generally, but the ending was very cool. Definitely a strong contender for top 5 finish.

    I like that Austrian entry even if it the staging did make me nauseous. Some voice on the singer

    These can sing but it’s got a very annoying stop start twenty different songs kind of vibe

    Who cares?

    The guys representing Sweden who take it very seriously are from Finland.

    Great performance from Austria, fantastic voice, but not a fan of the song itself.

    UK like something from a mediocre musical.

    was that meant to be a Buck’s Fizz tribute ?
    This song has some part that sounds familiar.
