Ok I know you like Joost and I’ve been breaking my brain trying to think of what the actual staging is gonna be like, so I’d like to share my theory. On the screen behind Joost you see 2 silhouettes, presumably Joost his parents. It looks like there’s a path going up with animation Joost running up/to the silhouettes. His TikTok’s and an interview with Dutch tv show a lot of Joost running away; “Ben aan het vluchten van mezelf/im running from myself”. He’s also mentioned that this will be the end of an era for him and he’s done feeling sad all the time about his parents dying still. I think it will symbolize him running away from his pain all his life, even to other countries, and the Eurovision performance will be the closure and end of the chapter, time to move on kinda thing? I’m at least pretty sure big bird won’t be in the actual show and is just Joost fucking with everyone lol. There’s TikTok’s about the bird being missing and about shooting him like in angry birds. Anywayssss can’t wait for tomorrow and next week 😭❤️

As always, thank you for your thorough reviews and analysis. You are terrific! I think that there are border line acts with the televote which I would personally speaking as a producer, I would like to see advance: 1. Albania: Besa, Titan 2. Denmark: Saba, Sand - A bit boring standing on a platform. 3. Latvia: Dons, Hollow - Dons just standing there is not going to be sufficient to advance to the Grand Final, I am afraid. 4. Portugal: Iolanda, Grito The international professional juries will not vote on which acts from the Semi-Finals will move on to the Grand Final; only the televote selects which act from the Semi-Finals moves to the Grand Final. My personal NQs for both Semi-Finals, with the televote "effect" are: Semi-Final 1 Not Qualifying: 1. Iceland : Hera Björk, Scared of Heights 2. Moldova : Natalia Barbu, In the Middle 3. Azerbaijan : Fahree feat. Ilkin Dovlatov, Özünlə apar 4. Australia : Electric Fields, One Milkali (One Blood) 5. Portugal : Iolanda, Grito Semi-Final 2 Not Qualifying: 1. Malta: Sarah Bonnici, Loop 2. Albania: Besa, Titan 3. Denmark: Saba, Sand 4. Armenia: Ladaniva, Jako 5. Latvia: Dons, Hollow 6. San Marino: Megara, 11:11 It is going to be a battle of the girl's "bops" between: Semi-Final 1 - Girl's "Bops" 1. Cyprus : Silia Kapsis, Liar 2. Luxembourg : Tali, Fighter Silia does a good job but I find the staging lacking impact. Edge to Luxembourg as it comes back to Eurovision so there might be subjectivity in the televote and EBU. Semi-Final 2 - Girl's "Bops" 1. Malta: Sarah Bonnici, Loop 2. Austria: Kaleen, We Will Rave 3. Georgia: Nutsa Buzaladze, Firefighter I think the favorite is Kaleen. For me.- strong dance performance but weak vocals; sometimes, out of breath. I think that both Kaleen and Nutza will advance to the Grand Final. In general, I do not favor props which require the performance to stand on it as it rotates or goes up and down as it could potentially affect the vocal performance and delivery; and if something goes unpredictably wrong with the prop, it will most likely impact the performance as the incident was not scripted and the artist was not prepared to address.

I have to disagree with you on the on-screen graphics for Norway, Tom. For me, in MGP that was a part of why I didn't like it at all - that they cut into Norwegian nature which didn't feel natural. They have the LED background now, and I hope they keep it at that and use that instead to give that feel - it'll be less forced imho. For me, the song does nothing, but if they have dropped the on-screen graphics then this is an upgrade I'm happy with from MGP

I mean… if I was a KZitemr I wouldn’t feel comfortable spending lots of time discussing the musical performance of a country which has murdered more than 13,000 children in a few months (according to UNICEF)

Your videos are unfortunately representation of what I like to call "toxic positivity". I get it, you want subs, and you don't want to piss off people from their respective countries. But if you cannot deliver criticism when it's due, it's not good. Yes, talking about NL here. Even if you actually do like the song, whatever he showed here is lame enough that he dropped from 14% to 8% within two days. Can't wait tomorrow when you'll praise Nemo, they fell from 24% to 18% and counting.

Why the hate towards NL and our dear Tom? As a Joost Klein hooligan I respect Baby Lasagna, you should at least try to do the same. I would rather have Tom's 'toxic positivity' over your toxic negativity. And just wait, our staging will 🤯🤯🤯 the entire continent 👍@@TimmmTim

So would you be open to criticism about your own entry? Or can you only deliver without taking it? The negativity (understatement) by bashing other artists is not what Eurovision is about!

Tom usually look forward to your analysis, however am extremely disappointed in you skirting over the Israeli entry. Obviously you have just followed the crowd rather than giving a honest analysis and opinion. Shame on you.

@GalacticGalahadYou are tiring with your ugly and biased politics, I want to hear what the KZitemr's clean opinion is, free us with your concepts and coercion, if I asked why you don't react too much or too little to Latvia, you would shut your mouth, how tiring you are
