Rehearsal day five
Slovakia, Finland, Latvia and Serbia rehearse again
Song four – Slovakia
Slovakia’s Kristina brings her forest fairytale on the stage and creates a very green world full of leaves. This is one of the few ethnic flavoured songs in the contest and will have its fans, but will Kristina’s vocals be strong enough on the night to put the song through?
First rehearsal in Oslo:
Song five – Finland
The setting for Finland’s Kuunkuiskaajat is as blue as the previous one is green. Another song with ethnic flavour again. All the artists are in white and natural linen. The band members also carry traditional Kalevala jewellery. This happy song with Slavic and gypsy flavours and handclaps seems to put a smile on everybody’s faces here in Oslo, which should look promising for eventual qualification.
First rehearsal in Oslo:
Song six – Latvia
Aisha sings for Latvia in a beige dress and very high heels that we see now for the first time. Backing singers are in black and do a little dance routine behind Aisha. The set is dark blue. The song about fundamental questions about life and death is very catchy, but will the viewers and juries punish Latvia for the sometimes uneven vocals by withholding their votes?
First rehearsal in Oslo:
Song seven – Serbia
Serbian Milan and his team now also wear their stage clothes, which are blue and pink. They all have pink or purple shoes. The song combines traditional Balkan sounds to a modern stage setting with some street dance moves. Milan sings the song well and will be noticed and remembered by the viewers and jurors not only for his individual looks.

Well well some people don't want TURKEY to be successful in the contest, eurovision.tv certainly did that with a low video quality:

BOSNIA, RUSSIA, ESTONIA, MACEDONIA, PORTUGAL, POLAND
questionable: BELARUS, MALTA, LATVIA
SEMI 2
LITHUANIA, NETHERLANDS, SWITZERLAND, BULGARIA, UKRAINE, SLOVENIA

LOVE TO ALL MY DEAR FRIENDS
People, I can not believe my eyes. How sensitive are you? And I wonder that why you silence while the three known people (!) are long time hate speech about racist politic on this site? I wish you are show same react when this trio while start to hate politic again on this page. O.K. I am sorry only from all of you. But I am sick about the trio marko, galandar and Gunec.
Just ignore then, I know it's difficult but thewy must be 2 kids being bored.....
Back to ESC!
Fingers crossed for Eva!! I just can't understand some steps of her producer! In one day why they made that girl to have show in France then /the same day/ be back to Armenia to meet fans and in 8 hours to fly Oslo! I have sse the review she was extra tired of that even mentioned that! Hope she will stand it! But why was she to go to those parties in Oslo no explications! She would rather to have a rest and to make a repetition
