Guys and Gals, grab your pitchforks, we are attacking Azerbaijan in order to avenge poor Iceland

I already see a group of old people with pitchforks saying that this is not what Eurovision is about

San Marino? Only because of how he pronounces addicted?

That might sound crazy, but I think that I prefer Montenegro over Cyprus today. (Can't believe that happened) I would like them to qualify possibly, though it won't happen. The Netherlands / Hungary / Iceland / Croatia / Czech Republic / Armenia / Austria / Malta (the other two qualifiers are not that important)

I think there's no doubt that she's qualifying.

I Love Iceland So much like Of Monsters and Men

Montenegro sounds much better than expected. Interesting.

Cyprus didn't do it for me. The vocals in places seemed very forced. I know it's standard for rock music, but there were a good amount of mistakes.

The Netherlands, Croatia, Czech Republic, Armenia, Hungary, Austria all deserve to qualify. Waiting for Malta and Iceland.

Douwe Bob for the win. So far the best with Croatia in 2nd.

Poor Finland... Such a flop

My qualifiers from the first semi-final from left to right.

Sometimes I feel like I'm going to get disqualified this year. I'm finally down to 16 songs, but I am having major trouble scoring them. Most of them are pretty similar, so there is a very slim margin that keeps them apart and every single day that I listen, a different one rises up a couple of places. One song from the second category managed to get into points Save me...

It's crazy to know that more than one of your boats has a chance to win an Olympic medal Everyone qualified to the final and we got three medals, which is wonderful for Lithuanian rowing.

Well, now that's a first. 14 of the songs immediately passed into my golden category. I guess I'll still give a chance for the songs that are in the silver one, maybe they'll work on me with time. Nevertheless, I usually had 5-7 songs that had secured points during TISC competitions and worked up the rest from the bottom. It'll be hard to leave some really cool songs with 0 points.

Men's K2-200m +2 Lithuania qualified through world rating.

This is not how normal adult people should settle this. Especially with their status. Not only are they hurting their image with this drama, they are also hurting the sport that they are supposed to be representing. What they are doing is wrong and there's no easy way to put it. Also, they're probably doing that because of money, but at least they could have prohibited the players of the clubs to join the national squads. In Lithuania, everyone is actually ashamed that we are giving in to FIBA's demands and we're still not certain if they won't drop us from ECH / Olympics. We already had to drop our second best team out of the national league to appeal to the FIBA gods.

Well, thank you I also really enjoy the French song and I think it could be the best French placement in a very long while.

I am not even a fan of basketball, but this is beyond ridiculous They want Lithuania out of 2016 Olympics now as well, together with Spain... (That's like 1/5 of our entire squad)

Nice, two more quotas for team Lithuania

If Yefimova is back, that would be utterly horrible. She already got the green card to participate in the World Championships when they shortened her ban, not to mention the fact that she didn't stop training at any moment of her being suspended during her first ban. This is beyond ridiculous...

Hopefully we get two quotas in this

As far as things are looking back on track, we have to reflect on some absences in this years contest. With Czech Republic and Egypt likely to miss their first competition, there are a few countries absent with three or four participations under their belt. These countries are: [4] , [4] , [4] , [3] , [4] , [3] But we have to welcome our newest member of the TISC family: Indonesia

Well, he's very confident. Even though I personally really enjoy his song and it is in my top 5, I struggle to see him winning this year

There's a slight mistake. You need to add Malta to the list in the 1st semi-final
