Rehearsal Day 3 – Estonia

Estonia is coming into the competition with a song that isn’t expected to reach the final, but as we know, rehearsals can really change the game. Coming after San Marino, Estonia is keeping things simple which is a stark contrast. The staging is dark and moody, and is very reminiscent to the national final performance.…

Rehearsal Day 2 – Malta

The bookies favourite and OGAE winner has now taken to the stage for her rehearsal, and she has not disappointed. Destiny, a former Junior Eurovision, once again showed off her vocals in a confident performance of Je Me Casse. She can certainly sing, no one can deny that. Destiny is wearing a short pink dress…

Rehearsal Day 2 – Romania

With one of the strongest songs this year, and the biggest potential for staging, Romania has set the bar high this year. The first broadcasted run through of Amnesia was shaky to say the least. Vocally, Roxen fails to deliver. She gives a confident delivery, but each note is as shaky as the last. The…

Rehearsal Day 2 – Croatia

Third up today is Croatia, who aren’t clear qualifiers in my opinion. Did the performance change that for me? It was a fairly good stage performance, with the retro pink, purple and blue lights throughout the performance. Albina looks great in what is the third sparkly diamond outfit in a row, and the backing dancers…

Rehearsal Day 2 – Norway

As expected, we see TIX take to the stage in his angel wings. The performance of Fallen Angel is similar to the national final, but the team has really managed to elevate the performance. As in the national final, we see backing dancers support TIX, who is standing on a platform. The dancers have chains…

Rehearsal Day 2 – Cyprus

Cyprus kicked off rehearsal day 2, and they began with a bang. Elena is looking stunning on stage, with the wavy blonde hair and a diamond style dress that makes it look like she is dripping in diamonds. We expected a super sexy performance, and while it was sexy, they didn’t overdo it. Elena is…

Rehearsal Day 1 – Ireland

We were promised something revolutionary, and Lesley Roy has delivered – at least in the visual department. Ireland is bringing something unique this year with their staging of the song Maps, and this is easily the most prop heavy performance thus far. We see Lesley placed as if she is in a storybook with cut…

Rehearsal Day 1 – North Macedonia

With some technical difficulties, there was no sound in the first run through of the North Macedonian entry. Instead, I was left with the visual performance alone, which was truly stunning. The nation has left things incredibly simple this year, focusing on lighting primarily. The stage is very dark, and all you really see is…
