Today: The Grand Final Who will win?

Today at 21.00 P.M. the grand Final of the Eurovision Song Contest will start. But who will win tonight? Denmark, Ukraine, Russia, Anouk from Netherlands or Azerbaijan? Norway?

Thats my opinion for tonight:
1. Denmark
2. Ukraine
3. Netherlands
4.Norway
5. Malta (Surprise but I think he will get lots of Televoting points!

Why Denmark will win?
The song has very different elements, for example the flute in the song I like very much. I think she will win the televoting and about the jury, I cant say something. The jurys this year are very special (crazy)
, for example the qualifiers: Armenia, Belgium, Lithuania and Romania. I think that the jury push them into the final. I hope she will win and not a song who the jurys push with lots of points to win, that the televoters dont want. lets see what happen tonight.

Songcheck (2): Russia "What If"

Russia sings a very nice ballad this year. I like the song and it qualified to the final. 
Dina Garipova is her name, she has a wonderful strong voice.
Her my result:

Voice: 9/10                Very strong voice. One of the best this year.
Song: 9/10                 Beautiful ballad, Its like a ballad from the 80s. Very good!
Performance: 8/10    I like that the audience arms are light up with this rings.                                  I dont like the Background singer, she dont have stood behind her! Better they stand on her side.

Total: 26/30

She will make it to the Top 10 in the final, maybe she can also be the winner;-). Lets see...


Songcheck (1): Belgium "Love Kills"

The singer of the song is Roberto Bellarosa and he sings for Belgium.
He qualified for the final, it was a surprise for me.

Now my result of the song:
Voice: 6/10               He has not a so good voice, but its okay.
Song:  6/10               No very special song, so 6 points.
Performance: 4/10   Better without dancers!!! Blue screen in the backround, I found good.

Total: 16/30 

I think in the final he will be around place 15 - 20.

Semifinal 1: Review Part 1

Yesterday on 21.00 p.m. the Eurovision Song Contest 2013 starts with the first Semi Final.
16 country fought for 10 places in the final! 
The show began with kids who sing Euphoria, later Loreen sing together with the kids. I liked the opening.

First Austria "Shine":
She has sang very good in my opinion. The performance was very easy, maybe because of this the people not remember after 15 songs on her and so they didnt vote for her. Before the Semifinal I thought she made it to the final.

Then Estonia "Et Uus Saaks Alguse"
She sang very good and I like here voice. I found good that seh sang on her language and her performance was easy, but for this song it was perfect. I thought that she got some more points from the jury, but also enough from the televoters and then she qualified. Well done Birgit!

Then Slovenia "Straight Into Love"
She sings not good enough, in her higher voice she screamed more than sing and the song was not good enough. Also her performance I found not very nice. So lets "Straight Into Home" Slovenia, sorry.

Then Croatia "Mizerja"
They had one of the best voices last evening, but I dont know why they dont qualify. I think they got not much Televoting points, but I think they get some jury points and cause of the new voting system they are out. I liked the song much...

After that Denmark "Only Teardrops"
Nice voice. Nice song. Final.

Then Russia "What If"
She has a very clearly strong voice and a nice song. No surprise that she made it to the final.

Then Ukraine "Gravity"
One of the favourites this year with also Denmark! She sang very good, one of the best last evening. Also in the final.

Then the The Netherlands "Birds"
Very beautiful, slow song, but the people liked her. So not a surprise it is a good song so The Netherlands made it to the final after 7 Years. Congratulation Netherlands!:)

Thats it for Part 1, Part 2 comes...
