Alright. We had no problem with watching the program !
I wrote on paper my impressions of the performances,
shoot me but I used the only grading format that comes to mind..
Montenegro - A- really good performance. The guy tugging at her skirt
near the end was interesting. He was panting, it just looked cool.
Czech Republic - I wrote blah! . Did not like it at all.
Belgium - straight C Elvis impersonation. It wasn't bad.
Belarus - straight B the guy could sing well.
Sweden - straight C she could have performed better.weak.
Armenia - B+ I loved the song already, performance was just good.
Andorra - straight B better than sweden or Romania,too bad.
Switzerland - C but really a yuck.nice background scenes.
Turkey straight A bellydancers !
Israel straight B I can't remember why, but it was good.
Bulgaria - C
Iceland - A+ I really thought their performance went great.
Macedonia - straight B I liked them better than B&H .
Romania - straight C nothing bad, just personal choices.
Finland - B+ It sounds too western for me.and that creepy guy..
Portugal - straight A every year I like Portugals entry.
Malta - A+ that lady has an awesome voice the best singer of all.
Bosnia and Herzegovina straight C I was disappointed .
I kept crossing my fingers for Montenegro to get into the finals,
all the while shamefully thinking; where is Montenegro ?
- To sum up my experience: there were no 'bad' songs in this group.
