5. Slovenia - Zala Kralj and Gasper Santl - Sebi
I'm torn. I wanted this to qualify. But when it came down to them being the last to qualify over Portugal... my heart hurt. Current winner of the year as my favorite is out.

14. Estonia - Victor Crone - Storm
...how the fuck did this qualify???? his vocals were dire and the staging was kinda boring. stig rasta should be shot to go from goodbye to yesterday to this.

15. Portugal - Conan Osiris - Telemoveis
This not qualifying is worse than Blackbird not qualifying in 2017. While I lowkey expected this to not qualify, it still hurts me that it didn't. my favorite of the whole year, just flicked away.

Deservedly? N
overall i'm pissed portugal fell flat on their face. there better have not been a tie between 10/11th place and portugal was 11th to san marino or estonia.
Belgium, this is how you build a song without building it right. This instrumentation is beautiful alongside PAENDA's fragile vocals. The emotion is everything.
3. Iceland - Hatari - Hatrid Mun Sigra
hatred will prevail? more like baldness will prevail. THIS IS SO FUCKING GOOD. I normally hate "screamo" in music, but for this it works so well that I actually love it. The heavy synths??? UGH.
2. Slovenia - Zala Kralj and Gasper Santl - Sebi
An experience. I love how minimalist this is and that it actually works. I still prefer Kaos to this but both would land here. Her voice with Gasper's style of music works and takes me to another place.
1. Portugal - Conan Osiris - Telemoveis
BALD BALD BALD!!!!!!!!!! The ethnic instrumental with his voice and the performance. The lyrics with everything else. The experience and the melodrama. My god. If this doesnt qualify I'm blaming KAN since I know they're having rehearsal trouble due to KAN.
WHEWWWWWW. Her voice mixing with this song is so good. The Albanian language is beautiful and this is no exception.
7. Romania - Ester Peony - On A Sunday
WIG. When the bass comes in at the second verse, it takes me off guard in such a good way. Her vocals are unmatched and the DRAMA is there. She snapped.
6. Germany - S!sters - Sister
I slept on this hard. I love the drama in this song and their voices mesh SO WELL together. I love the music box motif that appears throughout the song along with the production.
5. Poland - Tulia - Pali Sie (Fire of Love)
FIRE! FIRE! FIRE OF LOVE! WOWWWWW. I love their voices together with this ethnic rock sound. I love this a lot!!!!!!
