Well it was daylight almost leaving the club last night but for some reason I am fresh ish today and I really don’t know why!! Maybe the liver has given up and I’m now running on a hundred percent tuborg blood?!
So the aftermath from last night has left the Israeli fans reeling. Always so sad to see a country that had a strong song go out but reports are the vocal wasn’t perfect on TV and the draw was always going to be tough. Perhaps the pop vote was split with Macedonia? I’d say Belarus, Switzerland or Slovenia pipped Mei to her final spot. Teo did get his charm back and Slovenia had a good draw. The surprise for me was Switzerland making it. Pyros aplenty and SEBalter oozed sexy charm and made it. I’m so pleased despite the song being shaky it done well.
We analysed the draw to death over a beer or three last night but going into the arena now to see the first run through and how the final now pulls together. Exciting!
There’s no draw, Madame Rosé (apart from the first/second half thingy). There was an allocation. There is a running order. But no draw.
Switzerland was the big surprise for me last night. I don’t think the song’s amazing, but HE is. Totally swoonsome and charismatic, with movement on the stage and a gorgeously colourful set. Very, very much improved from the Swiss final performance.
