The last one wasn’t so bad. Still, nothing much to see in this semi final to be honest.
10, 5 and 2 are probably the only three I have above average…
oops I eant to say 6
Cake and PeR are the best for me..
1. Celebration
2. My world
3. No limits to dream
4. Freakin’ out
5. Rollin’ up
I had a delicious dinner with my cousin and her husband and reading yout comments, I obviously did not miss much, except for your comments of course.
My favourite comment:
“Laila has just commented on the other site that she should jump out of the cake dress t first refrain..but she didn’t she stayed in it for the whole performance so this entry lacks some energy!”
LOL
Hei, well she stood still all the time and it is an up-tempo song
hehe, Isn’t it great comment?
Maybe you needed one big cake after the dinner so you liked that comment!
I love watching beautiful cakes (in Harrods for example) but I don’t like eating sweets much. Did she look like a gorgeous Harrods cake or more like a gugelhupf?
Like a wedding cake!
You can check those who qualified, that’s what I suggest!
“Celebration” first and “Disco Superfly” second of the juries results
Which of those are worth checking on YT tomorrow?
mmmh songs 4, 7, 8, 9 and 10 make it through, late draw got it easy… i’m very indifferent to many of them but “Celebration” in the cake was close to the night’s disaster and I’m glad “Disco Superfly” made it…
@togravus. You can’t miss the cake performance! It is worth checking on YT just for that
@Marko: Did you see my links for Lithuanian songs? I found a few while I watched the semi final. Maybe that would interest you.
I am leaving now, so bye.
Thanks Laila, bye!
Which one was Cake? N° 7 (Paula Dukure)?
Yes that is number 7!
