Newsnight (end of their show)
Friday played
a clip of the Maltise Singer

Who has been told to change
The word "Khant" (means) singing.

They Sing the "Serving Kant"


It sounds like the "C" word

Amazing they they let them in
to sing
the "C" word..................


Malta has a few days
to change that word.

even Pierdavide Carone had a underrated result, despite also having had a good entry



great opening either by Al Bano whom btw received a honorary citizenship of san marino, from their prime minister

Portugal - bland and forgettable (and they just took a massive tumble in the odds)

Serbia - Nothing special, again very forgettable.

San Marino - I always will them to do well, they are always the little underdog. They may actually get to the final with this, it’s not terrible.

Sweden - Love this one. And in Swedish!

i like Serbia, but always have been a sucker for oldschool balkan ballads anyway and this has all the good ingredients of most of their previous strong ballads so


Sweden feels pretentious and too tryhard to please the eurofandom, wish they kept being them with basic pop, Erik was robbed


Portugal is nice, as it is in native language, and they are always not caring about what works at ESC, it paid off great in 2017 for example

I was more happy Mans didn’t win. I hate when past winners come back and try again. They had their moment already.

What’s interesting is now it’s not Man’s representing Sweden the odds are going all over the place. There isn’t a clear winner yet/front runners yet and this could be a very unpredictable contest.

Also glad to see Albania seems to be gaining a lot of traction.

I quite like our entry, but it's far from the usual stuff we hear at Eurovision.

It's good, but I'm not sure the Eurovision audience will appreciate it.

Israel’s is a VERY strong entry. This could win it.

my favourite sorted yup yup


my fave bit of the song is the french element, also how fluent she is at that, which is due to her having lived in Geneva in her childhood, so must be extra emotional representing her nation at eurovision in a country she used to also live in


am not surprised about the strong quality, considering her budget was 1 million euro (3.5 million shekels) also not surprised about that amount of budget

her aunt Ronit having quite a mega famous fashion empire (having done many major fashion show catwalk events as well as the styling for the 2016 Cannes Film Festival) talent deffo runs in the family i think
