Austria: No obvious errors in this performance, although Cosmó does shout into the audience once (red flag). The song is rather flat, with a low level of vocal difficulty. Juries will notice this. They will also notice the masks, which could trigger the FOP-effect.

Romania: Alexandra starts off well with a solid first verse, including hitting the lower staccato ranks. Chorus comes out strong as well, with the higher opera loops as the highlight / the cherry on top. Second time around is on-key as well.

Norway: Jonas clearly struggles with some kind of virus all week, Jonas seems to be getting worse. While the verses are still on key, you can still hear the phlegm in his voice – and during the choruses, he can hardly keep up with his own song anymore.

Italy: Sal Da Vinci is another performer who keeps slightly improving throughout this week. Solid first verse without missed notes. He even gets the tough “d’avanti” note right in the first chorus. He gives his best vocal performance of the week.

Cyprus: The first two a-capella lines are almost entirely off-key. The second pre-chorus is probably the worst part, with another few missed notes. This is the weakest vocal performance of the night so far, and one of the few that has not either been eliminated or improved

Lithuania: The first verse is vocally solid. In the chorus he is slightly low for a note at the words “pray for”. Otherwise okay. He hits the falsetto in the second verse, but he goes off the rails during the second chorus. The louder Lion Ceccah goes the more off-key it gets.

Poland: Alicja is one of the better vocalists of this year’s competition and she has shown that again tonight. With the exception of the final note which she has to cut a little bit short – everything else goes full throttle and she does not go off the rails even once.

Finland: Pete Parkkonen gives a solid vocal performance, despite clearly not having his full vocal capacity. On Tuesday, he was hoarse at times. Tonight not, but Pete has to slightly hold back at times. He manages the situation professionally and does not miss a single note.

Moldova: Satoshi brings us a mixture of several different genres, including hiphop, pop, folk dance and ethnic elements. A song written to put smiles on people’s faces, much like previous Moldovan entries that have generally fared poorly with juries but very good with televoters

France: Monroe, too, is at her best tonight – though it must be said that she has been strong all throughout this second Eurovision week. Even with her momentum slipping in media & betting markets, there is much to be proud of.

United Kingdom: The high pace, the invasive instrumentation and the novelty lyrics are all potential red flags, as are the computer masks used in the staging (FOP-effect). While you could argue that the singer performs a movement routine that increases the level of difficulty.

Croatia: The first solist starts off much stronger than on Monday night. The harmonies in the chorus, while still not perfect, are also improved from Monday. The word “Andromeda” toward the final minute is slightly on the edge, but this was much better than before.

Bulgaria: Dara is off-key a few times in the “blinding lights”-part the first time around. Nerves? Second time is better. Second bridge is okay. All in all, this is one of the few performances so far that was vocally less strong than during the semi finals.

Czechia: Daniel starts more confidently than on Wednesday. There is a tremor in his voice during the second verse, however, it does not seem to affect the quality of the outcome – it even suits the emotions of the song. Final minute is great, the big high notes are all spot on.

Malta: Aidan has always been a solid singer, however, tonight may not have been his best performance of the week. Without missed notes or big mistakes, he sometimes seemed to be a little bit on edge, particularly right after the wind carroussel part.

Serbia: A solid performance, bringing exactly what you would expect from this group and this song. However, there are many reasons to doubt Serbia’s jury potential this year. The harder the rock song, the less likely it is that juries will vote for it.

Australia: Delta seems perfectly aware that tonight is the night she needs to get most of her points. The first two lines, she starts carefully, and when she feels she has it, she opens all registers and lets it rip. The vocal acrobatics toward the end sound great once again.

Ukraine: Leléka misses two notes in the first verse and cuts a few more short, sounding a bit hoarse at time. The first chorus sounds good – she clearly feels more comfortable in these ranks than in the lower verses. Second time around, the same thing happens in the verses.

Greece: Akylas shouts into the audience right before the first chorus: “Let me hear you”. This is a well known red flag for juries. The first melodic part after that chorus is also the first time he slightly struggles vocally after an otherwise solid start.
