I'm feeling very wordy today. (Also, I had already typed this before I posted the results lol.)
SF1:![](http://i.imgur.com/SfnrSrF.png)
This is okay. IMO a step down from previous recent Taiwanese entries. We'll see how it fares in the final.

A bop. I knew it would qualify.

Also a good song deserving of the final.

Yes. I think it's a risk that paid off.

Expected to qualify.

It would've been an international crime if this didn't qualify tbh.
![](http://i.imgur.com/uGUJ7Mp.png)
An okay qualifier. I see the appeal, but it doesn't appeal to me.
![](http://i.imgur.com/vHVN1kl.png)
Another expected qualifier. Certainly one of the better German entries so far this year.

Expected flops for me unfortunately.

Could've qualified if variables were different.

I'm devastated. This deserved to qualify so much.

Kind of a bop. I did not dismiss this immediately.

YAS to this banger. Welcome back to the final! Nice to see that Turkmenistan doesn't have to rely on a certain Amalia anymore.

It's not my favorite style of music, so I expected to NQ, so qualifying with this is the most unexpected thing for me. Thank you guys so much for voting it into the final.

A sure qualifier. None of Rina's entries so far have been unworthy of qualifying.

This song about a town in France sang by an artist with Belgian roots qualified over France and Belgium. Let that sink in.

I'm such a sucker for these cinematic songs/tracks. This and Romania really stuck out to me, so I'm happy they both qualified.

These songs highlight the best of Latin American music for me. I'm pleased they get to be in the final.
![](http://i.imgur.com/pZrnlfS.png)
This is different for sure. Decent qualifier.

A strong comeback from last edition's NQ. Good song.

These were forgettable.

RIP eye candy.
![:(](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/sad.png)
The song was really good, too.
![](http://i.imgur.com/gYKQz60.png)
This was a shock NQ for me. I suppose there's KEiiNO fatigue? Well, they have been sent frequently enough in NNMC. IMO, it's their best song since "Spirit in the Sky."
![](http://i.imgur.com/dD6B2rV.png)
These left an impact on me, but I don't know if their impact was big enough overall.
![](http://i.imgur.com/jFXt6cI.png)
I'm just not really into C&TQ's music.

I know it's Loïc, but I still find this underrated.
SF3:

Initially unexpected qualifiers for me, but they grew on me slightly.
![](http://i.imgur.com/gVKwPqL.png)
Deserved to qualify. Both delivered.
![](http://i.imgur.com/Lu8GajH.png)
Qualifying was the only option.
![](http://i.imgur.com/iLqCurK.png)
I'm in the middle with this. It did stand out though, so qualification was deserved.
![](http://i.imgur.com/tLqzQb7.png)
I was worried people wouldn't be into this, but I'm relieved it qualified. A true BANGER.

We need Kazakhstan to come out with some amazing songs because they're capable of that.
![](http://i.imgur.com/WnEPAp9.png)
Underrated.

I'm just going to admire its status as an icon of this contest. This country's presence in NNMC is just inspiring.

I easily dismissed these as non-qualifiers unfortunately.

I'm sorry, Chante. I preferred Nailah's previous song (even though this current one was the best one in this month's NS). Ugh, now I'm even more frustrated our watermelon queen isn't getting the glory she deserves.

I now feel a little guilty of robbing Daria of participating last year.
![](http://i.imgur.com/Udp3w1b.png)
ROBBED. This should've qualified. Like with Canada, I'm devastated.
![](https://i.imgur.com/sLCu89G.png)
Aram Mp3 actually had a good and interesting song for once, so I'm a little saddened that it didn't qualify.

I remember Bilal. I don't remember the song.
