THE NETHERLANDS – This was a mediocre day when it comes to rehearsals. I am sceptical (and not negative) regarding the Latvian and Swiss rehearsals as they both miss something magical to make it top, although technically there was nothing really wrong with their efforts. The best performance for me was that of Billie Eilish Victoria Georgieva, the song of which is nothing special, but the overall TV outcome is simply shouting “winner material”. Another surprise for me was Albania. Anxhela performed better than I thought because honestly, the song “Karma” is totally out of my taste, I would never listen to it. Georgian rehearsal is completely indifferent since I saw the social media behaviour of Tornike the past month. So I don’t even care about this one no matter if it was good or bad. Portugal tried to do something and save this entry which is performed by a guy who thinks he is Prince and Denmark saved me 40 minutes of wasting my work time today as it is clearly not going to achieve anything this year. But overall, I will pay attention (during the second semifinal) to Finland. These guys worry me, they can either end up top ten or plunder in the bottom. If a metal audience or metal-oriented audience watch the show, they will definitely send them to the grand final.
