EUROVISION 2026: FIFTH REHEARSAL DAY IN VIDEOS

What can I say? Not much judging these short videos. But I say a few words anyways by the first impression that can be very misleading anyways. Moldova is a bit let down, not at all so powerful and energetic as I expected. Vocals seem to be off, too. Sweden . Same as Moldova. Which makes me think these vids are on purpose a mess. Croatia seems very busy and a bit too serious and angry. I have said before and I repeat myself: angry women don't do well in Eurovision . Greece ....

After two rounds she stepped out of politics and returned to show biz in 2020.  Maybe, just maybe she'll repeat the magic.....
