You can read the reviews below from the rehearsals and later today, our media partner, 12points.tv will provide video footage.

Song 11. Croatia - Kraljevi Ulice & 75 Cents - Romanca
 
Croatian rap is brought to Eurovision by 75 year old Ladislav Demeterffy.  Armed with walking stick he gives a spirited and cheeky performance of Romanca.  He seems to take a slight fancy to the young female dancer on stage. Strong vocals and warm tuneful melodies are produced by Kraljevi Ulice.  Flying doves displayed on the screens behind the singer throughout the song.  The song finishes with Ladislav spinning disks on an old gramophone.

Song 12: Bulgaria - Deep zone & DJ Balthazar - DJ, Take me away

Today we see the Bulgarians give another outstanding performance of the Eurovision Song Contest stage. The presentation starts with amazing break dancing by the male backing dancer known as the The Man Machine.  We then see DJ Balthazar and DJ Dion holding a prototype, guitar-shaped turn table which allows the DJs to spin disks at the front of the stage. Singer Joanna looks stunning in a red gown which is open in the front to reveal shapely legs and a pair of garters. She holds exotic ostrich feathers to complement her outfit and delivers strong perfect vocals for DJ, Take Me Away.  Towards the end of the song the DJ set disks alight on the turntables for great effect.  The performance also includes a laser harp which plays tunes as a laser is touched. Not only is this the most contemporary song in this years contest it is also one of the most entertaining and fun to watch.

Song 13: Denmark - Simon Mathew - All night long

Simon Mathew delivers another strong vocal performance for this gimmick free rendition of All Night Long.  Dressed in a white shirt, gray trousers, flat cap and braces he is joined on stage by a four piece band. The song is delivered with enthusiasm and has a joyful feel.  This is a simple and joyful performance.

MOR VE ÖTESİ-(CRAZY) TURKEY

Sounght, the owner of my soul
Did I fall fight into the spot?
Resisting the subject of my passion
Angered and shrunken
Sounght, the owner of my soul
Did I fall right into the spot?
Resisting, resisting, resisting...
Raise me
Don’t make me cry
Where is the love
You’re so proud of
Raise me
Don’t make me cry
Don’t waste my time
With fake dreams
Sougt, theowner of my soul
Did I fall right into the spot?
Resisting, the subject of my passion
Angered and shrunken
Soungt, the owner of my soul
Did I fall right into the spot?
Resisting, resisting, resisting...
Raise me
Don’t make me cry
Where is the love
You’re so proud of
Raise me
Don’t deceive me
With fak dereams
Half sane, half crazy I am
Sane all around me, crazy, one side of me
Everbady else sane, crazy, only me
Crazy, only me...

Where is the love
You’re so proud of
Raise me
Don’t make me cry
Don’t waste my time
With fake dreams

I like it 'cause it's different!
No sex on the stage, no silicone bubbies, no botox, no cages, no sado-mazo, no turkies and other animals, no exploding microphones, no glitter. Just the song and one old man talking about some different, long gone times. good luck CRO!

The Croatian entry is a great song! Their live is quite good, and the old man makes a funny show. This song deserves to qualify to the final! I'd like the girl dancing a bit slower, but that's just a detail.

Kraljevi should qualify to the final, one of most decent entries this year that deserves to do very well. I can only wish them good luck!
