Malta had its fourth semifinal or presentation or whatever it is a few days ago but I got to it only now. But once again there isn't much to write home about. Andrey Marioe Bortolo, Ryan Dale & Duminika, and previous winner Mike Spiteri all offered a middle of the road pop tunes that need a lot of work to lift them up from the pile of mediocre and forgettable, with Cynthia Attard in between with the odd ballad. Dario Bezzina brought the drama on stage edging to kitch but at least he stood out for that. The one for me was Wayne Micallef with his self penned Save a life. Isn't Richard Edwards from the first semifinal his brother? If so these brothers bring some real emotion and quality to this contest!
