      Jonezymusic Even if he is down to earth and hardworking (I bet the other artists are that too), its all about which song is best and will give the best result in Eurovision. At least, thats what people should vote for, not the best looking, nicest etc. A Eurovision song needs an instant hook so people will remember it over the other 40 songs,

      The pre-qualified song by Akuvi that is going to be revealed on saturday is so far the highest rated pre-qualified song by the press, (they get previews) so that's potentially something else to look forward to. This semi might be the best so far! (I hope)

    "Vertigo" is pretty great yes.
    "Pink Jacket" gets better for every listening to be honest, which is not good for Eurovision though, but good for charts.
    Sir Gubba is way too dated for Eurovision, but "Kjære Du" , which translates to "Dear You", is actually a great song within its genre
    "Pray For Me" could be staged amazingly well and if her voice doesn't break (she is only 18) she can do well, also in Eurovision. It is also my favourite in this semi.

    Well, you'd better not underestimate the fans of Sie Gubba. They're celebrating their 25th Anniversary this year, they're Norways most popular countryrock band and they have lots of loyal fans who are going to vote for them. And they're returning artists as they finished 4th in MGP 2011 and singer Petter Øien finished 3rd with Bobby Bare in MGP 2012 with "Things Change". This is BTW the semi final from the region where I live (not where I come from, that comes next week) and Thomas Løseth is living just 5 km down the road from me. He won The Voice Norway in 2017 and sang at a wedding I attended in 2016. Alexandrus participation is pretty emotional for me b/c he was born the day after my ex-partners youngest son and they shared room at the hospital so the mothers became friends. My ex-partners boy died in a road accident nearly three years ago, when we lived together, so therefore Alexandrus participation is very emotional to me. On top of that, the boy that died loved Sie Gubbas music, so for me anyone of those three can win and it's OK for me. And not to forget, I'm also touched by Kristin Husøys stunning voice so voting on Saturday are going to be some tricky decisions to say the least. B/c this also is IMO the best semi so far.

Finally 2 songs that can reach the final without sounding like something else from Eurovision, oh and those are Vertigo and Pray For Me of course 😊
