Eurovision 2012: Pre - Final


The day is finally here, tonight we will know who is the winner of the Eurovision song contest 2012. I've said this a lot of times but im going to say it again, this year is a bit weird for me cause i've been trying very hard to control my emotions about the songs cause i dont want to get mad or sad if i dont like the results but i think that failed cause im pretty sure that i'll be very disappointed if a bad song wins but its not going to be the end of my eurovision world cause my feelings about the results changed a lot when i saw the results of last year esc and what im trying to say with this is that it doesnt matter if you get a bad position, if your song is good, it will be succesful and thats more important cause if the winner doesnt have a good song or wasnt the best in the contest the only thing that they get its a trophy and the right to host the contest but thats all, if you ask me about 2011, the most succesful act were the Jedward boys and they didnt get a top 5 result, does Ell & Nikki have a career, hmm maybe but if you compare them to Lena or Alexander Rybak? i dont think so. This year anything can happen and there are some really good songs and artists that i can see doing well in the charts all around europe, so i really hope one those songs gets the trophy of the esc 2012 cause its what the contest needs, last year the winner song was not succesful in the charts. Since february 4 i've been in love with that song, i didnt expect her to win the Melodifestivalen cause normally my favorites dont win and she performed on the semifinal 1, she got a meh draw in the final and she got a big competitor Danny ( Im sure Bjorkman wanted him to win) that was the biggest favorite before the competition but then he was the 2nd favorite cause she won the hearts of all the swedish people and on the final night she won with a huge record of votes. Since then she became the biggest favorite of this year and even if there are a lot of people saying that she is going to win, i still think that anything can happen, i would love to see this fantastic song and artist winning but if she doesnt win, i dont care cause theres no doubt that the most succesful song before Eurovision was Euphoria and after her semifinal she got in the Itunes chart of a lots of countries so i think she already won cause for an artist the most importan thing is to get people who likes what you do and support you buying your songs and she already got that no matter the result she gets tonight. Here is the 1st performance of my Eurovision 2012 winner: LOREEN

Tonight eternity's an open door
no dont ever stop doing the things you do

Eurovision 2012: Semifinal 1

Good evening Europe! The 1st semifinal of the Eurovision song contest 2012 was great but you wouldnt believe all the things that happened to me today, like there was a 3 hours blackout here after the song 14 so as you can imagine this ESC didnt started well but i have to say that im very happy with the show and i think they all did a great job, im very impressed by Leyla cause i thought she was going to be the worst of the 3 and she was the best so well done girl!

Now im going to give a brief comment about the songs that didnt qualify:

Montenegro: There are no words for this even if i thought it was going to be worse but i kinda enjoyed still it was horrible.

Latvia: She is a good singer and i think the whole act and song were not good enough.

Belgium: She is so young and she doesnt have a strong stage presence yet so i think that was one of her problems she was kinda lost on that huge stage, i started to like the song the last 4 days so i kinda wanted this to be on the final but there was nothing to make me vote for it.

Finland: She was much better than in the finnish national final and the performance looked really good on screen but i guess the audience didnt get it.

Israel: Meh, i didnt like it.

San Marino: I love Valentina and the song is fun, im sure 80% of us know the lyrics and sing along with it but we all knew that this was kinda chanceless, the performance was good and i really hope that Valentina is ok.

Austria: They did their best and im sure they enjoyed the whole thing, i love them and i was expecting this cause i really cant see the juries voting for this but still i think they were great on stage.

Switzerland: Im so sad for them, i wanted Sinplus in the final, they were f*****g GREAT and they really deserved to be in the final cause their performance was one of the best of this semifinal, much better than 2 o 3 that got in the final but what can i do :( I hope they are fine and i send all my love to them cause they were one of the nicest artists of this year and i really love them! Well done boys! Lets watch them rock the stage:


Now here are the 10 finalist and im going to make my top 10:
10.Russia: Buranovskiye Babushki - Party for everybody
I can get all the media that this entry got but its really sad that real musicians with good songs doesnt qualify and this song does just because of the grannies, i watched their juries rehearsal video and it was painful so i really dont think the juries voted for this but then if they are in the final is because they won or had a top 4 result with the televote and it makes a bit mad, i really hope the juries can stop this cause i dont think this would bring something good to eurovision.
Russia was drawn to perform 6th in the final.

9.Greece: Eleftheria Eleftheriou
Im going to say this again, this is so boom boom chaka chaka but she is lucky cause she is representing Greece, bad song with a very bland choreography and i cant see why is this in the final, i dont like it.

8.Hungary: Compact Disco - Sound of our hearts
This one is ok, they did a very solid performance and i knew this was going to qualify.

7.Rumania: Mandinga - Zaleilah
I think she is a very good singer and she had some technical problems with her audio in her earphone but she still did a very nice performance and i think they deserve a top 15 result, they are really good and as i said before this is dangerous in the final cause i can see them winning but i really dont want this song to win but still i think they deserve a good result.

6.Moldova: Pasha Parfeny - Lautar
I thought this was going to be a super messy performance but it wasnt, it was a really good and fun performance, Pasha is a great singer and he has a charming, sexy, cute stage presence and thats what all the show is about so im very happy for him.

5.Cyprus: Ivi Adamou - Lala love
I love this song and the performance was really good, i felt the energy and she looked great but i hope a much better vocal performance for the final cause it was a bit weak in the semifinal but im very happy for her and Cyprus!! 

4.Denmark: Soluna Samay - Should've know better
I think she was very nervous cause her vocals were not perfect but this is a great song, the stage act is really good and she is lovely so Well done Soluna and good luck in the final!

3.Iceland: Gréta Salóme & Jónsi - Never forget
I love them and they did a good performance but there were some little things that i hope they can fix for the final but it was a very nice act so once again Iceland is on my top favorites.
Iceland was drawn to perform 7th in the final.

There's a tie with the 1st place:

1.Ireland: Jedward - Waterline
Yaaaay JEDWARD!!! i was so scared with the last envelope thing but what can i say? i love and they did a fantastic performance and even if i dont like the power ranger outfit i think they looked hot, there are some camera angles that i didnt like so much so i hope the fix that for the final and im so so happy for them cause they really work very hard and they deserve to get a great position this year! Congratulations boys and GO JEDWARD!!!

1.Albania: Rona Nishliu - Suus
BRAVO BRAVO BRAVO *Standing ovation* wow im speachless, this performance was magical, her voice, her emotional stage presence, her strong song, the lights everything was so perfect, when Leyla was saying the finalists everytime all i got in my mind was "say Albania, say Albania" i really hope with all my heart that this gets a great result on saturday cause Rona deserve it.
