My final list

 

1    Netherlands
2    Portugal
3    Croatia
4    Switzerland
5    Iceland
6    Moldova
7    Bulgaria
8    Greece
9    Norway
10    Denmark
11    Lithuania
12    Armenia
13    Latvia
14    Austria
15    Slovenia
16    Albania
17    Ukraine
 

I would like to add to this that this means Denmark is screwed in my list, because no matter if Ukraine has a great or terrible song, there is no way they'll miss the final this year  

[Agger 1,700]

Some rather surprising countries advancing!

[heywoodu 16,004]

People in certain countries will be mad  

[Agger 1,700]

Well. Not much surprising that we didn't advance though they performed well today. Guess it's time to reconsider the Danish selections.

I haven't followed the contest and the rehearsals anywhere near as close as I did in previous years, so I don't really have a Top10. 

 

But I am curious about how much of the qualifiers I can get right just by listening to the YouTube recap. This will most likely be a failure, but hey, I am curious. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

8 out 10. Not bad considering that I didn't pay much attention this year.  and  out,  and  in.

[Vektor 3,326]

I think  or  won the semi, those were the two performances that worked the most in my opinion. But I am not sure about Portugal, it's a dark horse because it's an unusual ESC entry. 

[Bearas 581]

Glad  made it through! I've really enjoyed  tonight and  was a great fun

[Olympian1010 8,230]

I’m pretty happy with who made it through.  missing out is the only thing I’m disappointed about.

[Makedonas 2,239]

I wasn't able to watch tonight but I am glad that we qualified, even though it was expected.

 

Hope we can get our second consecutive top 10 finish on Saturday, and maybe do even better than last year 

 

 

I'm surprised Albania didn't make it. Disappointed Austria and Croatia missed out although not surprised. Totally shocked that Switzerland made it. Crazy that some years they had good songs and got robbed (2013, 2017, 2018) and then this year with this boring song they make it

Just now watching the performances. I don't know who made this decision, but the audience is so far away from the stage that I miss the "human" element. Most of the time the camera work doesn't help either, in some performances we only see the audience by the end.
