Day 6 (Friday) comes to an end

Catching up part 3, Friday16/May

More in Dutch

The second rehearsals from Armenia (semi 1) to Switzerland (semi 2)

Armenia
She'll make the final, but it wasn't her best performance today.

Netherlands (see above)

Finland
Again rock from Finland, but without masks (2006) or grannies (Moldova 2005), who's gonna vote for this?

Romania
If nothing goes wrong on tuesday this will be a certain qualifier. Nothing wrong with this one, vocally perfect and good on screen.

Russia
No lift for Dima this time and a performance which resembles the one from the national final. Excluding Evgeni Plushenko and opera of course.

Greece
Also a qualifier if nothing goes wrong. Like almost every Greek entry every second of this song is choreographed. Lots of moving and dancing.

Iceland
Looks the same as in the first rehearsal. Still good.

Sweden (pictured)
Almost the same as during Melodifestivalen. See Iceland ;)

Turkey
A bit messy on screen, and it might not have the impact Iceland and Sweden have. However the Turkish song is certainly not a weak one.

Ukraine
Today her act made a bigger impression than her voice which was weak at some times. However a certain qualifier.

Lithuania
Something very different after the first four songs, but it lacks everything a ballad should have.

Albania
A bit static, but a good voice and a nice song.

Switzerland
His biggest problem is his voice. The song is ok, but needs a good delivery.
