18 hours to be premiered and we already know this video is going to be full of TEA
Hahaha 🍵 It was soooo tough. This semi final is like 😳
I'm really really hoping that Croatia makes it. Albina is amazing
She is such a kind person, really. Am hoping for amazing staging!
Lithuania, Sweden, Cyprus, Malta and Azerbaijan are locks for me
Then I think Romania, Norway, Croatia, Russia and Ukraine could get through
It's a very tough semifinal tbh
I don't understand why people like Azerbaijan this year. It feels so repetitive to me :(
Cyprus, Lithuania, Croatia, Malta, Romania, Russia, Azerbaijan, Norway, Ireland and Sweden are my favs but I predict that Belgium and Australia will go through because of juries. Guys PLEASEEEEE update your wiwi jury top
Idk what is gonna be a bigger bloodbath: the first semi final or the fight between William and Deban over sf1 qualifiers🤣🤣🤣can’t wait!!
🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂. Love both of their passion and they very obviously love and respect each other. Their interactions have been a must for me. Both intelligent and insightful as always.... Can't wait for the video. Reminder set 🕕⏳⏰😁😜
Who I (personally) want qualify: Malta, Ukraine, Romania, Lithuania, Ireland, Cyprus, Croatia, Australia, Russia and Azerbaijan.
I would rather reserve who I think will qualify after I see the rehearsals 🙂
My prediction:
Lithuania 🇱🇹
Russia 🇷🇺
Sweden 🇸🇪
Cyprus 🇨🇾
Norway 🇳🇴
Croatia 🇭🇷
Israel 🇮🇱
Azerbaijan 🇦🇿
Ukraine 🇺🇦
Malta 🇲🇹
Who do I want?
Get rid of Sweden and Norway (which, I concede, is unlikely) and replace them with Australia 🇦🇺 and Ireland 🇮🇪.
Norway have stayed in the semi final 3 times: 2007, 2011 and 2016. Now we are in 2021...... so who knows, 4 - 5 years in between, no semi final last year so if there is a system here......
Sweden are harder to get rid of as you put it. But Norway is not all that hard.
In 2012, Norway were saved by the bell. Ending last in the final tells a lot really. In 2019, if the jury had decided alone, we could have stayed there as well. In 2015 the oposite happened. If the public had decided alone we could have failed too. So you see: there are possibilities that you might get your wish about Norway. If it doesn't go all that well, we are happy to send you a little break, and give you the oportunity to get out and have some fresh air or anything you want to do when it's on. It's our pleasure! Love from Norway. The best of luck to your country whatever it might be! ❤❤❤❤
Greetings from the UK!
Wow, this is a very detailed insight - yes, I think it was obvious the last 3 times Norway didn’t qualify that they weren’t going through, but this year is difficult, because the odds, the fanbase and the press seem to think TIX will do ok. It is certainly a striking performance, whether you like it or not (I do not, RIP Blåsemafian and KEiiNO etc.) I’m hoping it will hinge on the fact that most people who voted for TIX were his Norwegian fans, as in, the ones who can’t vote for him at Eurovision, and his appeal won’t be far-reaching at the Contest itself.
All I can say is: so sorry for your loss 🥲
@@joebleasdale5557 Thank you. In fact you are talking to one of those who voted and rooted for KeiiNo in the MGP and felt like a fallen angel when they didn't win. However, at work my boss has played both versions of the song time and again from the semi final where he along with KeiiNo, both pre quaiified , performed their songs, so it has definately grown on me. But, that's to say, I don't think that the whole world has a boss like ours.
You mentioned Ireland, I love that song and hope it goes through. I have left to listen to Australia and a few other countries.
I do like the UK though! Good luck!
Noooo i‘m from Austria and i loooove tix song for norway but i do not like swedens song this year 😂
My prediction:
1. lithunia
2. Cyprs
3. Romania
4. Russia
5. Ireland
6. Croatia
7. Azerbejdżan
8. Isreal
9. Malta
10. Belgium or ukraine
I dont have croatia in my list. That high note in the beginning will take people off. I am more into belgium and ukrain. But obviously its personal taste
This is more like an opinion rather than a prediction
Totally agree, but I think Ukraine will because Belgium is not so popular this year.
Deban and William are such an icon duo. Damn!
Thank youuuu. We have so missed seeing each other.
@@Wiwibloggs we can see that! It was amazing!! 🤣
@@Wiwibloggs
When will you post the prediction for the second semi final?
Lithuania , Russia, Sweden, Ireland, Cyprus, Norway, Romania, Azerbaijan, Ukraine, Malta
Who I’d like to see 🤞🏻
Croatia 🇭🇷 Ireland 🇮🇪 Malta 🇲🇹 Lithuania 🇱🇹 Cyprus 🇨🇾 Azerbaijan 🇦🇿 Australia 🇦🇺 Belgium 🇧🇪 Romania 🇷🇴 Israel 🇮🇱 🥳 xx 💋 p.s I like Ukraine 🇺🇦 also 👍🏻
I love this!!!
Loll
Nice seeing you here Georgina!
Omg Georgina😀
Queen honest omg
Ooooh queen is here too ❤❤I guess you are being eurofan this year 😅 congrats 💥💥
Prepare your tissues for 18th of May because some great songs will sadly be left behind🥺
Yeah, sad but inevitable...
True. Some years are blah, some years are strong. 2021 has turned it up to 11. This year is ridiculously strong. The semis are going to be BRUTAL. Anyone who doesn't qualify is automatically "robbed".
I can normally pick a preliminary top 10 by now, and this year I can't.
When a Semi Final will have better songs than a Grand Final. OMG! this is a bloodbath!
2018 much?
I'll be so sad if Romania fails to qualify. I love Roxen and Amnesia is in my top 3
She's an amazing singer. Her voice is EVERYTHING!
She’s in my top 5, I really hope she qualifies 😭
Romania will qualify, there are 0 chances of it not qualifying
@Sir Stevia get some musical ears then
@@flzrin warning of votes geopolitic country nordic with Netherlands and Germany. I love Romania. Go all votes Romania
My prediction is, in order: Malta, Romania, Cyprus, Lithuania, Belgium, Sweden, Israel, Azerbaijan, Russia and then Croatia or Ireland for the last spot! :)
I've just realised: Croatia will benefit from having both North Macedonia and Slovenia voting here. Seems like some safe points, which will surely help.
@@Wiwibloggs errr... Croatia had North Macedonia in 2018 and 2019 as well and that didn't help much...
Croatia
@@jamieconroy4126 hahahahahaha right... hahahahahaha Very last place like I predicted.
My prediction is Malta, Lithuania, Sweden, Russia, Ireland, Cyprus, Croatia, Romania, Azerbaijan and Ukraine
Ireland?? Nahh
Hahahaha Ireland. Very last in the SF
@@adrianos7334 Well last place is kinda sad, but staging was bad so 😬😬
@@janitamarianne409 It were her vocals who were extremely bad. Even in the music video you hear her struggling with the high notes. I don't even understand why wiwibloggs saw Ireland as a sure qualifier, I said from the start it would end up last in the SF. I never liked the song, and the staging was ok, but some countries like France proved that with a good song and vocals you don't need a staging.
@@adrianos7334 Yeap staging didn't help her sing better it made it worse cause she had to do so much. It was a mess, but I liked this song so much before sf 😔
Mine is ❤️
1 Lithuania
2 Norway
3 Belgium
4 Israel
5 Croatia
6 Cyprus
7 Romania
8 Aserbajdsjan
9 Sweden
10 Romania
I’m from Denmark So please vote for Norway.... please ❤️🇳🇴
Love Norway
Lol Malta 🇲🇹 and Ireland 🇮🇪 are going through. Your top 10 must just be your favourites
@@jamieconroy4126 hahahahahaha
It’s too hard to make a prediction, but here’s my top:
1. 🇨🇾 Elena Tsagrinou - El Diablo
2. 🇦🇿 Efendi - Mata Hari
3. 🇱🇹 The Roop - Discoteque
4. 🇷🇴 Roxen - Amnesia

15. 🇸🇮 Ana Soklič - Amen
16. 🇲🇰 Vasil - Here I Stand
Thank you for Romania!🤗🥰
Love seeing this after the contest finished and see their predictions… just shows how unpredictable the contest is
And combined with what Deban said about the winners after their Sanremo win that even the experienced don't know everything. Although in fairness to the guys out of all the pundits I watched only Bondi out of Two And a Half Queens got ten out of ten right in predicting the Qers from this semi and they (Idk how to pronoun drag queens) got two wrong from semi final 2.
I believe that you will qualify: Cyprus, Romania, Croatia, Malta, Azerbaijan, Sweden, Lithuania, Israel, Ukraine, Russia❤️
My predicted qualifiers are:
1. Malta 🇲🇹
2. Azerbaijan 🇦🇿
3. Ireland 🇮🇪
4. Cyprus 🇨🇾
5. Sweden 🇸🇪
6. Israel 🇮🇱
7. Romania 🇷🇴
8. Russia 🇷🇺
9. Ukraine 🇺🇦
10. Lithuania 🇱🇹
I think Australia, Belgium and Norway are borderline but I think they will just miss out.
Techni tecnhiii coolooour (LOVE AUSTRALIA), and will be heart-broken if it does not make it to the final.. 😍
For me, qualifiers prediction: Lithuania, Sweden, Ireland, Norway, Cratia, Romania, Ukraine, Cyprus, Azerbaijan, Malta
We would love to read your predicted Top 10 (and also the top ten that you want to qualify) in the comments down below. 🇱🇹 🇸🇮 🇷🇺 🇸🇪 🇦🇺 🇲🇰 🇮🇪 🇨🇾 🇳🇴 🇭🇷 🇧🇪 🇮🇱 🇷🇴 🇦🇿 🇺🇦 🇲🇹

My personal ranking in this semi:
1. Belgium
2. Ukraine
3. Ireland
4. Lithuania
5. Russia
6. Australia
7. Romania
8. Croatia
9. Malta
10. Israel
Sadly I don't think all of these will qualify; Sweden, Cyprus and Azerbaijan (and possibly Norway) will probably all get in.
I just hope William and Deban are right about Ireland being a lock. *fingers crossed*
the way we have 16 semi finalists this year... which is kinda a low number in recent years. YET ITS ONE OF THE HARDEST SEMIS WE’VE HAD 😭
It's a quality over quantity thing.
Good observation. You are 100% right!
At least only 6 songs will be out unlike 9 in blood bath semi final 1 2018.
i hope that this countries will qualify
Malta, Croatia. Lithuania, Russia, Ukaine, Romania, Cypurs, ireland, Belgium, Slovenia
Lithuania, Croatia, Romania, Azerbaijan, Ireland, Malta, Cyprus, Sweden, Israel, Ukraine
Who I think should go through 1) Israel 2) malta 3) Azerbaijan 4) Ukraine 5) Lithuania 6) cyprus 7) Russia 8) Norway 9) Romania 10) Croatia
Ah I’m so happy to see you both together in person in a video again! ❤️❤️
Malta, Azerbaijan, Israel, Ireland, Sweden, Ukraine, Cyprus, Lithuania, Russia & Croatia
My 10 in random order
1.Sweden
2.Lithuania
3.Ireland
4.Crotria
5.Isreal
6.Malta
7..Cyprus
8.Belguim
9.Norway
10.Russia Or Azerbaijan or Ukraine Can't Decide
My list is Ireland, Lithuania, Sweden, Australia, Cyprus, Malta, Israel, Romania, Russia, Ukraine.
I had no real problems picking them. These are the songs/countries that should advance, but you never know what could happen.
I love Australia's song, but it is gonna be a make it or fail it song during the finals, because I've seen mixed feelings about this song.
ROXEN: *releases Amnesia*
Deban: I can't understand you.
ROXEN: *slays concert in the dark*
Deban: E N U N C I A T E
ROXEN: *amazing Spain pre-party performance where you can clearly understand what she's singing*
Deban: It's some sort of elvish I can't hear it.
You know it's a weird Eurovision year when Ireland, Lithuania, Cyprus and Malta are the sure qualifiers from a semi with Australia, Sweden, Ukraine, Russia, Norway, Romania and Azerbaijan in it.
hahahaha Ireland was never sure. I knew this would end up very last in the SF.
My Top 10 are:
Malta, Croatia, Cyprus, Ireland, Sweden, Romania, Norway, Israel, Azerbaijan, and Lithuania
I cannot imagine wiwibloggs without this iconic duo.
My qualifiers on random order
Lithuania
Romania
Cyprus
Azerbaijan
Malta
Sweden
Russia
Croatia
Belgium
Ireland
I would put Norway in but I couldn't :(
GOOD LUCK TO ALL OF THEM

Malta
Russia
Ukraine
Lithuania
Sweden
Will probably qualify
Cyprus
Romania
Azerbaijan
borderline
Israel
Norway
Croatia
Low chance
Ireland
Belgium
Australia
Not a chance
Slovenia
North Macedonia
SF1 is really hard and competitive. I think you are quite right here, but so sad to see Slovenia and North Macedonia under-appreciated so much. I DO think they have a chance to qualify...
My Prediction: Malta, Lithuania, Russia, Romania, Azerbaijan, Ukraine, Ireland, Cyprus, Croatia, Sweden. [Pre Rehearsals]
My predictions:
Lithuania
Malta
Cyprus
Romania
Azerbaijan
Ukraine
Croatia
Russia
Ireland
Sweden
Russia, Sweden, Ireland, Cyprus, Croatia, Israel, Romania, Azerbaijan, Ukraine, Malta are my picks. Liked Belgium as well, what a killer semi-final!
If the juries are arguing just like this, I'm not surprised that they have a jury final the night before each show! Lol
I love the way they argue though 😂
But yeah, I could imagine the ten finalists being announced in mid june if they had the same difficulties to choose
@@clivebezzina188 Yes I agree! I love it myself! 🤣🤣🤣
FINALLY THE BEST VIDEO ALL YEAR IN CZcams
🙏🏻 This was sooo hard! This semi final is 🤯 Honestly have no clue how this will work out !
@@Wiwibloggs it will all depend on the stage performance!! Can’t wait for the rehearsals!!!

Finally Deban and William together!
Lithuania, Sweden, Cyprus, Malta, Ukraine , Russia and Romania have been lock a place in the Grand Final
For the rest 3 places i can see Israel, Azerbaijan and Ireland . The 2 dark horses is going to be: Norway and Croatia. Australia is going to take 11 or 12 th place ( because of the juries ) Belgium 14 th place and North Macedonia with Slovenia are going to fight for the last place.
🇹🇷 My SF-1 results from Turkey:
1 Azerbaijan 🇦🇿 (my winner)

Note: Some songs' lyrics are not for me but i just liked melody & rythym of songs. Example Norway, Slovenia, Israel, Russia, Ukraine, Cyprus & Azerbaijan's i just liked melody & rythym, some of lyrics not for me ❤️❤️❤️🥳
First semi will be like Hunger games. So many songs will be out...and worse songs from second semi will go through sadly :(
William I hope queen Roxen will change your mind ;)
My prediction:
-Cyprus
-Lithuania
-Malta
-Romania
-Croatia
-Sweden
-Israel
-Ireland
-Azerbaijan
-last spot between Russia and Belgium
I want her in the final! Hoping for great staging. The Australia live-on-tape news is hard to assess. I worry her performance may look more simple compared to everyone in Rotterdam ...but maybe it could actually encourage some people to vote for her because of the situation. Who knows?! 🤕 Wishing her and everyone luck!!!
@@Wiwibloggs haha u re so sweet. I wish good luck to all as well, but ofc i have to support my darling first🇷🇴💜
In my opinion Malta, Lithuania, Cyprus, Romania, Sweden, Azerbaijan (my country :D) will qualify for sure; Any scenario is expected among the rest :) Be safe, Guys! 💜
Sorry William, but I mostly agree with Deban's qualifiers. Romania HAS to make it through!

Azerbaijan
My prediction
Malta
Romania
Lithuania
Sweden
Israel
Belgium
Cyprus
Azerbaijan
Croatia
Ireland
My qualifiers are Romania, Sweden, Azerbaijan, Ukraine, Australia, Lithuania, Malta, Norway, Slovenia and Cyprus.
Sure qualifiers
🇲🇹Malta - Destiny has it all: voice, stage presence, charisma. I sense that the performance will be such a show: empowering, powerful and appealing.
🇱🇹Lithuania - Energy, quirkiness, a song which is both radio-friendly and unique on its own, along with such a captivating performance. The Roop has all the chances to become Lithuania’s best scoring entry.
🇨🇾Cyprus - I agree with what you said about being mainstream, and in this case Elena has so much potential to shine like a true performer can on that stage. Nothing else to add.
🇸🇪Sweden - Well, it’s Sweden...but the main reason is Tusse himself: he manages to put so much emotion and passion when he sings and that really elevates what’d be a standard, generic song.
Other qualifiers
🇷🇴Romania - This has emotions, beauty and a strong message which really resonates with probably everyone.
I think that Roxen will have a really interesting performance, and overall it’s one of the best entries. I think it’s quite definite.
🇦🇿Azerbaijan - It has those ethnic vibes for which the country is know for, and they are masters with the staging, which helps in elevating a really good song, which could feel a little bit too repetitive with all the “Ma ma ma ma mata hari”. Overall, this is great, and I’m very curious to see what they’ll do in Rotterdam
🇷🇺Russia - I’d say Manizha is one of the most interesting artists this year, she breaks all standards and stereotype with her own, personal style and an attitude no one else has. I think she has one of the most diverse songs with what will probably be one of the most diverse performances. A stand out.
🇺🇦Ukraine - I think this is another case of an entry and act that’s so different from the rest and that will be such a stand out.
Televoters will love them, I don’t know if the jury will give them the support needed, but I take the risk and say this is going through. It’d be a pity if it didn’t. But I have good feeling about this.
Borderline qualifiers
🇮🇪Ireland - This is probably the best song I’ve ever heard from Ireland since I know Eurovision. I loved it at first listen, and it’s so uplifting and positive, I really enjoy listening to it. The main reason I’m putting this among the borderline qualifiers is that the semifinal is really strong, and I think I need to see the rehearsals to clarify my thoughts. I mean this has it all to be in the final, but the competition is so tight and among all the entries I fear this one is not as sure as others.
🇧🇪Belgium - This is atmospheric, dark, enchanting. Geike’s voice is so much better live, which gives it an extra point.
Juries will love them, the televote is a big mistery, it all depends on how appealing the performance is.
🇭🇷Croatia - One of the most modern entries from the country. I think it’s overall pretty good, but I have no clue if this will manage to come out in order to qualify. Again, such a strong semifinal.
🇮🇱Israel - Eden is the best thing if this entry. I like Set Me Free much more now after the revamp, and Eden probably does as well. Still, I think it doesn’t pack a punch like other entries, and it might fall slightly as a little bit generic. Again, I need to see the rehearsals.
🇳🇴Norway - TIX is an artist that definitely doesn’t go unnoticed. Fallen Angel is actually nice, but I don’t know if it’s gonna be enough to beat other countries with a much more memorable and less flamboyant song. I mean, it’s not a bad entry, I enjoy it, but from an objective point I don’t know how much both juries and televote will reward Norway.
🇦🇺Australia - I’m expecting the Technicolour staging to be so colorful and original, giving that art pop feeling Montaigne is know for. I don’t think it’s a disadvantage to perform with the live on tape as long as the performance is “good”, in the sense that it stays true to the song itself, but I have no clue on the actual chances of qualifying, which are in the hands of televoters from my pov. I need rehearsals rn🥺It’s so difficult!
Non-qualifiers
🇸🇮Slovenia - Ana’s voice. I simply love it! One of the best vocalist of the year, unfortunately with a song that doesn’t manage to emerge among the rest. Juries will probably like it, but televoters won’t be their wingman. It’s such a pity, because Ana is fantastic.
🇲🇰North Macedonia - This song means so much for Vasil, and the performance will be very emotional and touching. Unfortunately, it doesn’t go anywhere, not even with Vasil’s extraordinary vocals.
It’s interesting that you called Israel’s entry generic, when to me Cyprus is clearly VERY generic and overrated. It sounds like every Eurovision song ever. I hope it doesn’t win but it looks like the favourite. I am from neither country, I’m from Ireland :) but I was just confused by your opinion

Quite surprising to me that you both predict Ireland to qualify, because for most people it probably isn't a certain qualifier. I really hope Lesley qualifies
Yeah, that a weird pick, shes not the strongest live singer and there are many entries way more memorable
They’re going on the song and staging - Ireland song is amazing and their staging will be amazing (promised amazing)
Every year croatia is so underrated
There isn't one bad song in this semi
It's sooooo hard. My heart breaks.
This is such a strong year, one of the best I feel like but I think it will all come down to who truly can live up to the expectations.

@@autumnvelkoz4523 Thank you for your appreciation! Yes, I am Romanian and I am proud of that! I love my country, I love Roxen and I love her song!🤗🥰
Ireland will qualify 🇮🇪
OMG I love you guys!!! YOU make Eurovision so much fun! Thank you for making this, the fans appreciate it a lot.
Ireland is 2nd in my top 39 currently and I really want to see her in final so fingers crossed 🤞🏻
Edit: Also editing of the video is on point
❤️🙏🏻 Shout out to our video editor Ron!
As of 27th of April, who I think will go through (ofc it will change after the rehearsals):
- Malta
- Sweden
- Lithuania
- Cyprus
- Belgium
- Azerbaijan
- Croatia
- Ukraine
- Romania
- Norway (or maybe Russia)
This semi-final is a bloodbath. Some good songs will be eliminated 😭
As someone experienced should know, after previous days' Spanish pre party, many things seemed different in terms of what we used to know from the clips.
Prediction top10: Lithuania, Sweden, Belgium, Romania, Malta, Russia, Cyprus, Croatia, Azerbaijan, Ireland
Desired top10: Cyprus, Romania, Australia, Belgium, Ireland, Norway, Slovenia, Malta, Sweden, Israel
I am from those who despise Sweden's push from every part possible every year. Tusse sang exceptionally at the party though, which made a huge impression on me.
William choosing his finalists, is me choosing sushi, pizza or burgers to order
🤣🤣 so many delicious options.
well, the difference is you can eat sushi today, pizza tomorrow and burgers the day after, but for the songs, out is out.
@@zivlau5401 he was saying what he thought...today his thoughts might have changed 😁
🤣 so true
Hopefully Ireland get in to the final think Lesley stageing will be great as she has said herself it is something never seen at eurovision before
I feel bad that I don’t think Ireland is going through... my prediction (in order) is Malta, Cyprus, Azerbaijan, Lithuania, Sweden, Ukraine, Russia, Israel, Romania and no 10 would be either Australia, Norway or Belgium (my hope is Australia but you really can’t tell w this semi). Ireland and Croatia come in at 13th and 14th but, other than n. Macedonia and Slovenia, it’s really close
For me:
Romania 🇷🇴
Malta 🇲🇹
Cyprus 🇨🇾
Israel 🇮🇱
Croatia 🇭🇷
Ukraine 🇺🇦
Lithuania 🇱🇹
Ireland 🇮🇪
Russia 🇷🇺
Azerbaijan 🇦🇿
I believe that these ten countries will qualify;
1) Malta 🇲🇹
2) Romania 🇷🇴
3) Ireland 🇮🇪
4) Cyprus 🇨🇾
5) Israel 🇮🇱
6) Sweden 🇸🇪
7) Lithuania 🇱🇹
8) Russia 🇷🇺
9) Azerbaijan 🇦🇿
10) Australia 🇦🇺 / Norway 🇳🇴
hahahahah, Ireland, very last in the SF. Just like I predicted from the start.
William and Deban both having Ireland as a lock has surprised me but makes me SO happy! One of my absolute favourite entries this year, and I’m praying that Lesley does super well in Rotterdam❤️
Vote 💚🤍🧡
she got last..
Russia 🇷🇺
Sweden 🇸🇪
Ireland 🇮🇪
Belgium 🇧🇪
Norway 🇳🇴
Azerbaijan 🇦🇿
Romania 🇷🇴
Lithuania 🇱🇹
Cyprus 🇨🇾
Malta 🇲🇹
Romania is one of the best this year....
🤗🥰
My list is: Ireland, Romania, Australia, Ukraine, Cyprus, Azerbaijan, Malta, Sweden, Israel and Belgium
It is really difficult!! I feel malta, Lithuania, Romania, Russia, Ukraine, Cyprus deserves a spot in the final.
And that Russia, Croatia, Romania (if her vocals and staging are on point, it will make it), Norway (my country) and Israel can struggle to qualify..
The bookmarkers are probably pretty accurate this year on which songs that will qualify.
Malta, Sweden, Romania, Lithuania, Azerbaijan, Norway, Cyprus, Ukraine, Russia and Croatia. However, I see a spot for even Australia, Israel and a small chance Belgium, which will probably compete with Russia, Croatia and Ukraine.
I just think Croatia can get in the final, the running order is on their side
ew
@@yo-yo. why? it’s the best song croatia has ever put, in my opinion
I guess Russia, Ukraine, Sweden (all - because they always do), Lithuania (because it's great), Croatia, Armenia, Romania, Malta (all - because they are playing on today's tendences), Ireland, Cyprus.
Australia is out because she will not travel to Rotterdam and that would make a negative impact
But i really hope Belgium makes it. Actually I love it the most from the first final

2. Azerbaijan 🇦🇿
3. Cyprus 🇨🇾
4. Lithuania 🇱🇹
