Witches, witches everywhere.

I thought it would be my bronze, but then Slovakia snatched it last second. I like the voice, the rhythm and the melody, especially that "elevation" in the melody during chorus.

USA is 7th without any medals. Astonishing.

As it should. I am so happy to have discovered that song.

I can't believe Slovakia is rated this poorly. I instantly thought it was finally going to be an amazing result again for them.

CROATIA "HRVATSKA" "CHORVATSKO" Dobra večer prijatelji. Nadam se da uživate u današnjem natjecanju. Tko će osvojiti bodove od Hrvatske - pitanje je sad? Good evening friends. I hope you are enjoying today's contest.

Right we are up next. As a friendly reminder, I haven't rewarded *any* points to the winners since the 2020 Annual. Four straight editions, must be a record? So I don't think anyone in the current Top 5 wants to get on board here.

Thank you @Federer91 ! I knew someone from a Slavic nation would have to find it catchy. At last we break our all time points tally of 90 points which stood since 2017 Open.

And so it happens. We drop out of the Top 10 after being in it since 9:12 this morning.

How convenient that Lithuania is racing in the points race. At this rate they will claim gold single-handedly.

France hasn't scored in six juries. And yet they still lead by handy 14 points.

This reminded me of this Korean girl band of 10 (!!) members. How do they even function?

Draw your own conclusions about Spain.

Also first medal for Lithuania.

Chile be like: Votes 1-26: 12 points Votes 27-31: 34 points

Even boy bands can be fun when you can present them smartly.

Mexico wins by a nose.
