My top 11 (in random order): 1. Malta 2. The Netherlands 3. Russia 4. Romania 5. Armenia 6. North Macedonia 7. Norway 8. Sweden 9. Switzerland 10. Azerbaijan 11. Albania
Romania and North Macedonia had very good stagings so they have now more chances to qualify, while Armenia and Seitzerland which at first they had big chances to qualify are now in the bloodbath.
Malwina Faruga Switzerland fell short of my expectations. I thought the staging looked pretty flat. The second rehearsal could change my mind though. But for now I'm not really feeling it.

@@lewis7975 no,he simply has his own opinion ☺️ btw,Armenia's timeslot was so bad,if you look at the pictures on Instagram you would see that the staging looks amazing
This is probably a very controversial opinion, but I can't see any country that was originally in the top 10 in the betting odds winning. They all feel like top 10 songs for sure, but not winners. The Netherlands is the song that feels most like a winner, but I'm still not completely convinced. Maybe it'll be a big 5 country, I doubt it though.
Albania is my winner of the semi and overall she doesn't like the staging and I don't she said they are redoing it and she is really upset by it but she can succeed
it should be their actual outfits, I saw a video where each shirt changes to different colours during the chorus depending on the colour of the light that is shone, which is pretty cool. They might change it tho. This is not the final dress/jury rehearsal.

This semi... Can it stop making me switch my favourites back and forth?! Though there are some that I'm disappointed, why can't all songs just qualify 😭 My Top 18 (SF2, 1st Rehearsal): 1.

@@airellrm4449 Austria is going to grow for me A LOT, Romania is my 6th in the semi-final (2nd in staging, probably will change again). Denmark might go down, Switzerland might not even qualify and North Macedonia or Azerbaijan might do! Rehersals have changed my mind a lot...
@@cristinavasilciuc6851 you accurately described what I thought :) Plus I'm really hoping North Macedonia & Azerbaijan qualify too! Both another dark horses of the year 😎
Oh yes! A stupid triangle and two bad looking sculptures next to it.. what is it? I know! I know! Tell us! It's Azerbaijan Correct! Let's put it now on the 4th place at odds
I kinda feel weird the betting odds did that just by trusting the press centre. But really the press centre reaction was very positive (must be something really impressive at that bridge, wished the ESC channel showed that part instead...).
