Semi final 1
Review of the entries in running order.
1 Montenegro
Just Get Out of My Life / Andrea Demirovic

Not a qualifier.
2 Czech Republic
Aven Romale / Gipsy.cz
Not a qualifier.
3 Belgium
Copycat / Copycat
Not a qualifier.
4 Belarus
Eyes That Never Lie / Petr Elfimov
 
A good singer, and a powerful rock song. A qualifier.
5 Sverige
La Voix / Malena Ernman
  
This could be either success or fiasco. It should be a qualify.
6 Armenien
Jan Jan / Inga & Anush
  
A joyful and vivid song. A qualifier.
7 Andorra
La Teva Decisió / Susanne Georgi
 
This is Andorra's best song ever. Unfortunately not a qualifier.
8 Switzerland
The Highest Heights / Lovebugs
 
A moderna pop song, a bit like Coldplay. But unfortunately I don't think it is not a qualifier.
9 Turkey
Düm Tek Tek / Hadise
 
Turkey will qualify for sure. This is very much Helena Paparizou and the sound is very liked by the viewers.
10 Israel
There Must Be Another Way / Noa & Mira Awad
Not a qualifier.
11 Bulgaria
Illusion / Krassimir Avramov

Bulgaria's song is similar to Sweden's with some opera influences. A qualifier.
12 Iceland
Is It True? / Yohanna
 
A nice ballad, maybe a little boring. Not a qualifier.
13 F.Y.R. Macedonia
Neshto Shto Ke Ostane / Next Time
Macedonia usually qualifies, and I think they'll do this year too even if the song is bad.
14 Romania
Tha Balkan Girls / Elena
Not a qualifier.
15 Finland
Lose Control / Waldo's People
 
A catchy euro disco. A qualifier.
16 Portugal
Todas As Ruas Do Amor / Flor-de-lis
  
This reminds me of Portugal's entries in 1996 and 1998. And they scored well, so Portugal will qualify.
17 Malta
What If We / Chiara

Chiara comes with a boring ballad as usual. I hope it will not qualify but it will for sure.
18 Bosnia & Herzegovina
Bistra Voda / Regina
 
Bosnia & Herzegovina will most likely get most points in this semi final. A qualifier, for sure.

Et Cetera / Sinéad Mulvey & Black Daisy

Not a qualifier.
3 Latvia
Probka / Intars Busulis
One of the worst songs this year. Not a qualifier.

8 Slovakia
Let' Tmou / Kamil Mikulcík & Nela Pocisková
The female voice really destroys this song. Not a qualifier.

Love Symphony / Quartissimo feat. Martina

Not a qualifier.

Dance With Me / Zoli Ádok
 
A happy disco song. A qualifier.

Hora Din Moldova / Nelly Ciobanu

This song has many potential voters in the Balkan and eastern countries. A qualifier.

A good song, the best from Albania since the debut in 2004. A qualifier.
17 Ukraine
Be my Valentine! (Anti-crisis Girl) / Svetlana Loboda
 
Maybe Ukraine is too much of everything this year. However they have a top position in sight. A qualifier.
18 Estonia
Rändajad / Urban Symphony
   
One of the best songs this year. So beautiful, and the Estonian lyrics suits the songs perfect. A qualifier.

Shine / The Toppers
