Eurovision 2017 - Semifinal 1: The Results

Hello Europe! Here are my comments about the results from the 1st Semifinal:

Let's start with a shout out to one of the countries that didnt qualify:

Finland: Norma John - Blackbird

I dont get how this brilliant act didnt qualify, Leena & Lasse did a beautiful job on stage and they will be missed on saturday.

10. Greece: Demy - This is love

She is beautiful but this is not love but just a mediocre entry, she deserved so much better than a 2006 Cascada wannabe song.

09. Australia: Isaiah - Dont come easy

I like Isaiah but last night wasnt his night and I dont get how this qualified.

08. Poland: Kasia Mós - Flashlight

Im not a fan of this song but I liked Kasia's performance.

07. Moldova: Sunstroke project - Hey mamma!

Fun performance!

06. Sweden: Robin Bengtsson - I cant go on

I still think this whole act is too stiff.

05. Belgium: Blanche - City lights

Love the song and Blanche, but I would have liked a better staging though.

04. Armenia

Lovely staging and she is a great singer but I still dont love the song.

03. Cyprus: Hovig - Gravity

Pretty nice performance.

02. Azerbaijan: DiHaj - Skeletons

I loved every single thing about this performance! BAD BOY! Go DiHaj!

01. Portugal: Salvador Sobral - Amar pelos dois

One word: WINNER!
This was just magical and I really hope this song made you all feel the same things I felt during those 3 minutes he was on stage. GO PORTUGAL! GO SALVADOR!

Sweden 2017: Robin Bengtsson

Sverige, vi har ett resultat. Vinnaren av Melodifestivalen 2017 är...

ROBIN BENGTSSON

I didnt have a big favorite this year in Mello so I guess Im happy with the winner. I like Robin and I think this was the most complete act in the final (Nice song, vocals on point and a fantastic staging). I still think he needs to relax on stage and enjoy the performance more. Good luck in Eurovision, Robin!

Shout out to Ace & Mariette, they were the ones I liked the most in the final:

Melodifestivalen 2017 - Deltävling 3: There is a boogieman out on the loose

What time is it? It's Mello time!

NU KÖR VI!

1. I Can’t Go On - Robin Bengtsson

This was a pretty good perfomance, I loved the idea of it and it looked fucking hot on screen but I still think Robin lacks of something on stage, (I mean just look at his dancers, their energy is so contagious, and they look like they're enjoying those minutes on stage while Robin looks kinda awkward and stiff in some parts of the performance)

2. Snurra min jord - Krista Siegfrids

Krista is one of the most loveliest artist ever and it breaks my heart to see her sad about her result. But sadly I agree with them, Im not a big fan of this song and even if she gave her all on stage, it wasnt enough for me to like it.

3. Kiss You Goodbye - Anton Hagman

This was probably my favorite song from this week and I liked the performance but I would like Anton to show more personality on stage next time.

4. Gravity - Jasmine Kara

Jasmine is such a fantastic performer! SHE KILLED IT! I want her to come back with a good song (gravity was too 2012/Sia wannabe IMO) cause she is FIRE and she deserves a second chance!

5. Boogieman Blues - Owe Thörnqvist

What a joyful performance, it made me smile and dance. 87 years old and this man still got his boogie! YES! C'MON OWE! I think he deserves a standing ovation!

6. Crucified - Bella & Filippa

They are adorable and their performance was lovely, cant wait to hear more music from them!

7. Gotta Thing About You - FO&O

I gotta say that this whole act was pretty nice, I liked their energy on stage, their vocal performance wasnt bad (Omars vocals were great), and even if the song is not a winner, it's catchy as hell. Good job guys!
