Eurovision 2021 semi 1

Lithuania
"Dance alone", he says as he has four back-up dancers.

Slovenia
A balad for Eurovision? Groundbreaking.
Joking aside, I do like her half cape thing and the starry background is very nice.

Russia
Her dress is HUGE. How tall is she? Lol nvm. The whole worshipping the screen thing is very cultish. lmao at France TV immediately cutting to people waving rainbow flags once the song was over

Sweden
Love the clothes.

Australia
Very cyberpunk aesthetics.

North Macedonia
Very minimalist staging. Another half-cape! Discoball shirt!

small interview-ish break. Australia has a rainbow flag and a trans flag aww :')

Latveria
Do Doombots count as people? Because there was way more than six of them.

Ireland
I'm not sure I understand wtf is going on with the staging?

Cyprus
That dress is made entirely out of beads and beads necklace and she pulls it off. Damn. The whole thing kinda makes me want a "1920s flapper makes a deal with a devil" story.

Norway
After devils, angels lol. And also devils. And chains. Someone watched Montero, lmao

Croatia
Weird smimsuit/corset/shoulderpads mash up.

Belgium
All this spinning is making me slightly seasick.

Israel
"Set Me Free" Well. This is awkward.

Romania
I remember none of this. No vampires boo BOO

Azerbaijan
Mata Hari was a hella cool lady. Those are some Ariana Grande ponytail.

Ukraine
I have no idea what is happening. I do like the two-toned halos though.

Malta
Why is the title in French?! Getting some Lizzo vibes.


Interval act
Brought to you by Daenerys Targaryen! All joking aside, I do quite like this. The bit with touching/entering the water was very nice.

Cyprus was my favourite of this lot, then Australia.

Qualified: Norway, Israel, Russia, Azerbaijan, Malta, Latveria Lithuania, Cyprus, Sweden, Belgium and Ukraine.
