Much better, but i still thinking the song is bad.

09.Cyprus


Im loving this, i really hope they get into the final, also Christos is looking HOT!

10.Bulgaria


Very good, good luck to Poli!

11.F.Y.R Macedonia



12.Israel


I love Dana and im still thinking this can be great on the night of the semifinal and if you like her, you should watch her press conference here.

5.Spain
4.Italy
3.Germany
2.UK
1.France

Lets watch the rehearsals:

11.France


The biggest favorite, the stage looks so magical and his vocals were amazing also he is absolutely cute. I loved the song since the 1 time i listened, i dont know if France is going to win but i'll give them a big round of applause. 5/5

12.Italy


He is so talented and the song is great, i think the juries are going to love this, but im not sure if the audience will vote for it, the performance sounded good but it looked boring. 3/5

14.United Kingdom


There are a lot of people saying that this is going to win and i can imagine that, i think they will get points from all the countries because they are Blue and their song is not bad but i really dont want this to win, i love them cause they are HOT HOT HOT but WTF are those fugly suits, their stage presence is good, their vocals were ok, but i think (hope) they are not going to win but if they do, get naked guys!. 3/5

16.Germany


Lena is back, i love her, last year she was my favorite and i was very happy when she won, the song of this year is good but i wasnt sure if this song was for the contest, well when i watched the rehearsal my first thought was WOW THIS IS GREAT, and i cant believe it but this can be in the top 5 or win again, she looked beautiful and her charisma still there, BRAVO LENA!! 5/5

22.Spain

I like the song but i dont like the performance, i can see she hate the song in her facial expressions, the choreography in some parts is very bad, im sorry for Spain, i still can see this doing well but i dont know, to me its bottom 5. 2/5

Eurovision 2011: Semifinal 2 Rehearsals

I wasnt very excited with the rehearsals of today cause there were a couple of countries that i wanted to see and i had to go to university, but i watched with Escdaily the rehearsals of Dino, Nadine, Eric and Christos, lets see what i think about the 1st rehearsals of the second semifinal:

01.Bosnia & Herzegovina


I think Dino has a magical energy, this performance brings happiness, amazing song with a fantastic artist and a very good team, i think this year is going to be very good for Bosnia & Herzegovina, i love it. 5/5

02.Austria

She is the best female singer this year without a doutb, i really like her, she is very talented an sweet, the song sounds great to me, the performance is very simple and her dress is very cute, i really really hope she gets into the final. 5/5

03.The Netherlands

I dont know but i think the guys of 3Js are boring, they dont look friendly, its like i dont want to see them, the song is very good for The Netherlands but im not sure if it will qualify. 3/5

04.Belgium


Great vocals here, with a cool performance and im strating to like the song but i dont think its enough to get in the final, but they should be proud cause they are doing a good job. 3/5

05.Slovakia


They girls can sing, their vocals were very good but the performance its not memorable just like the song, but it was a nice rehearsal.  3/5

06.Ukraine


Another bland ballad with a very fake girl, i just love the "Wow big stage, uhh im happy". She in the Eurovision in Concert said the she was going to have the dancers she got on the 1st performance she did on the National selection, i wonder what happened? Now she is with a male vocalist and a sand artist which is very distracting imo, but i think her vocals were good, im not sure about the male but im sure they will be on the final. 3/5

07.Moldova


They are so lucky, cause they 3 kinda boring songs before and they look very good after all those songs, also they have a great stage performance, and i think they will qualify and im not going to be mad cause i really like it. 4/5

08.Sweden


All the fans are crazy about this, i love Sweden but i hate "the no matter what song our favorite is Sweden cause we love Sweden", i really dont know what happened but it was a mess and he looked bad maybe tired, but it was like he doesnt wanted to be there, the live backing vocals sounded bad, and he saying in the press conference he knows the song and he dont need to sing it every time its crap, i think he got the worse 1st impression till now, i think he will qualify but we will see if he just had a bad day, but i dont like the way he is showing himself, haters gonna hate and lovers gonna love but to me he was the worse of the day. 2/5

09.Cyprus


And them Cyprus, i was expecting something simple and bad vocals but then WOW what is that, the bigest surprise till now its Cyprus, Amazing performance, he looked hot, the girl with the ball was epic and his vocals were very good, im proud of him, Bravo Cyprus i really think they deserve to be in the final, lets vote for Christos. 5/5
