So I've missed the Semi's for the first time EVER. (I'm in Malmö for a conference … where they are hoping for a Loreen win and the paper's speculate that the next contest could be held in the new arena complex where I'm doing this conference. I agree it would be a good venue so there is that.)

I've been keeping up by watching the voting recap reels on YouTube and comparing them to your write ups. It's kind good that way. But I won't miss Eurovision ever again.

Ok. I found the interval act on YouTube. Oh my god. Winner. Poor Dima. If he doesn't OD he has many years of these recap melodies on national finals and other recap shows … growing to look more and more like Johnny Logan with each passing year.

Lena rocked that prairie mini-skirt look. I do enjoy the Marija's confidently butch performance, but can't help thinking she looks like North Korea's former dictator Kim Jung Il as seen on 30 Rock.

Slovakia were robbed.

Lithuania? Seriously? that was boring as hell, even the blindfold tossing didn't really enliven it.

In general we felt that there were more interesting male singers than female singers, which made it surprising that more women got through. Hm.

Estonia was by far the dullest!

What I want to know is... if you're only allowed 6 people on stage, how come you can have as many digital people as you like!

Re: the Ukraine - yes! I mean... wasn't that about every disco anthem since the dawn of time mashed into one? No wonder I liked it :)
