Greece: Not good voice and simple coreography. But I still love this  for sure Greece will improve a lot till the 2nd rehearsal and for sure they'll qualify. Iceland: Nothing "wow" in the performance. All very black and cold...I know it's Iceland...but please a bit more of excitement. Anyway, top10 for sure. Latvia: Anmary's voice was really good. But where is the coreography? I liked the coreography in the NS and all that with the magazines, etc. why not Latvia? Montenegro: I don't like the song. This horse it's very funny...it was the best in that performance. For sure they won't qualify  Albania: I don't like this song neither, but the rehearsal was good, just what I expected...some people will like it but I can't connect with this feeling  Romania: Elena sings very good in live! But they are too static in the stage...with this song they can do a better and impressive coreography! C'mon Romania, for the moment they keep my vote, but I want more movement in the 2nd rehearsal  Switzerland: I liked a lot their performance, good voice and good energy! They have chances to qualify. Belgium: Nice background, but I still thinking that Iris won't qualify Finland: Very similar that in the NS... For me it's a magical song, but I'm worried if people will find this boring and forgettable |

Montenegro: That Trojan Horse Donkey showoff with 3 guys to sing the chorus is a great and refreshing new feature I've never seen before  . Love it all the way. I predict Rambo gets better clothing while playing the teal guitar. Iceland: Keeping the dark background in place for the icelandic environment was also predictable. Great chemistry as always. Camera-view over Greta playing the violine is very great. The red color for the end kinda looks unnatural for an entry like this. Keep it best at dark colors. Greece: Love the song itself, but all of this performance were too tacky and school-kid-looking. Background needs better touch of flashes. Not the stripe-by-stripe into purple bubbles. Latvia: Such a boring stage performance. She better keep it well done after looking the disgust of the background. No charisma on this one, even though she tried. Albania: Oh my favorite entry this year.. My wishes for her is too let it only be her on stage. May the background suit her screams like doing it back in 2009 with Russia. Anastasiya did it so well for creating an emotional background for her song. But Rona should just do it for a harmony of dark halls and old portraits to creep the people positively while she's doing her song. That's my biggest wish for her performance  Romania: And my 2nd favorite this year. Elena sings very well here. Other times it were with playback I'm honestly not thinking into a big change when coming to the 2nd rehearsal. Switzerland: Beautiful performance. He's singing the song without any problems aside from the pronounciation ! Neon lights really fits to this genre aswell Belgium: She sings very well. I adore the light onto her performance, but I would rather look for positive nature rather than dark woods in the background. Pink bubbles makes it a tad more sugar candisized, which makes it depressing imo. Finland: From this dark and charming song, she doesn't need to have all those lights. Blue fireworks(?) looks really cool and are symbolizing the colors of Finnish flag!  Aside from singing very well, her clothing was poor for me

Montenegro: Sorry, but this is HORRIBLE. I can't find another word to describe it.
Iceland: I was expecting more. The scenario is great and the clothes but the voices :/
Greece: The normal greek song. Really catchy but just like Kalomira, not an amazing voice.
Latvia: Nothing special
Albania: Boring as hell. Her voice is great but nothing more.
Romania: The big surprise. The choreography is horrible but she can sing live which is a big surprise for me.
Switzerland: Like the usual, not bad but not great either
Belgium: I like the song, but the singer ...
Finland: Beautiful song but sooo boring

Israel: Lead singer's voice is very good here. As I described the chorus as annoying, this performance wasn't very affecting my feelings from this perspective. Kinda predictable background. San Marino: I wanted her to be an audition pleaser. She's done it really well from what I see. Cyprus: With a beautiful background like this for this song does not fit at all. Just some neon lights (not that like Switzerland, but just more alcemic flashes into this song). Her singing is OK and the dance(rs) is/are well done for this song. Denmark: Same concept as usual Soluna messed up by singing "Like Sahara miss the rain" for everytime LOL. The pink color at background for the verse part just looks ugly, better use lighter colors together with the warm colors like gold and orange for the chorus. Also keeping the countryside nature as background, will be perfect! Also, why the female bass player look like a stripper  Russia: AMAZING PERFORMANCE! My reaction were all 'Aww' already when they were doing the intro. The white stove as a use of the deepest russian warmth from the grannies is fantasic! The biggest audition pleaser comes from this one!  Hungary: Using strong lines as use for painting the world maps, peace signs, hearts and stars etc. looks pretty good. For this strong song I would prefer something in space like planetary objects whirling or comets, while giving the big message out from his great man voice. Austria: All average here. I hope at least the bridge will be like the NS version, if not they come with some else good *Waiting for Moldova and Ireland to come *

Moldova: This performance just dissappoints me as much like Latvia does it. This choreography just looks too silly for this song. Pasha better gets it from 2nd rehearsel for a more fitting dance than this chicken dance. Ireland: All are fitting good here. Not to seem too bad to add this fountain over the very energized Jedward. I myself remember that time the backing singers got more vocal than Jedward in the chorus last year w/ 'Lipstick'. This time, Ireland must not fail for this time again

Israel: Personally I don't like the song, it's not my style. About the performance today I think it was ok. I specially like the background with those big clocks San Marino: Good voice and good coreography. I like it a lot, I want to see San Marino in the final! Cyprus: She performs better than I expected! The coreography is really good. In the final for sure and maybe top 10. Denmark: It was identical than in the NS. Nothing new But anyway it was OK for me. I like the clothes Russia: Very cool, they are very funny and they transmit good feelings but I don't like the song, and the voice just horrible...But I really like how them performed at the stage today with that stove I also like the background. Hungary: It's a forgettable song, I think it won't pass to the final. The voice it's ok and the background could be better imo. Austria: I don't like the song but the coreography is very good! They have a lot of energy! But not for the final, sorry... Moldova: Finally my fav of today's group! I want to see Pasha in the final. I'll vote for him. For me the coreography it's very original... maybe kinda silly, but I love it! Ireland: These are my Jedward! They transmit a lot of energy as the last year, and I love the fountain ! Definitely they must be in the final! |

Serbia: I believed that sophistical way Zejlko will do for his performance. Strong as always into the imagination of emotions and pure balkan nature. He would't dissapoint the audition for this beautiful act. FYR Macedonia: Kaliopi is trustfully a pure veterenarian diva that I sincerely hope that it won't go down despite the fact of a bad start position. Btw Nice background! Netherlands: My 3rd favorite this year. Although like from NF video, that background for attention to the Land of Fire itself may feel unlikely to listen to a sweet song like this, where it's better to come up with a Dutch nature like flowers and a mill. Neverminding the violin play in the bridge, but the 'campfires' are limiting for my taste of looking for fire. Malta: Very charming performance. Even though his singing wasn't fantastic, he can show that he can get a good amount of televoting. Nice background about partying all the way! I love it Belarus: His singing is pretty good. Also cool background, just the blue/yellow colors doesn't fit very good. Darker colors like green or grey fits better into the atmosphere of a poppy rock song. Portugal: This is one of the songs, that I would try to like, but it sounds too depressing for doing it. For me only though . That background looks super! Great imagination to find out the true beauty of Fado music. Clothing may be changed as its only 1st rehearsal. Ukraine: My 42nd here. New version sounds way better. Oh, Ukraine and its very creative and crazy performances. The colorfulness and Gaitanas good singing can let her qualify to final without see me angry Bulgaria: Leopard clothing may look sexy. But for this cheap dance track, it may seem rather awkward to the pinky stuff at the back. She can sing very good live, but it's just not my taste at all.

for sure Greece will improve a lot till the 2nd rehearsal and for sure they'll qualify.
. Love it all the way. I predict Rambo gets better clothing while playing the teal guitar.
Aside from singing very well, her clothing was poor for me
