Latvia - PeR - Here we go
These guys should sent some flowers to SVT as the opening act is clearly the best slot they could ever be. A perfect opener that will get the audience wild while waiting for their favorites, I think this would result a bit annoying placed anywhere else. And otherwise it works better as a video than straight live performance. A tricky one this is. It has some nice things, but it sounds a bit too familiar and rapping has never worked in Eurovision so far. Unfortunately this isn't my cup of tea but Latvia has done well, even won, when I haven't liked them at all, so.... But, a non qualifier for me but this said, I wouldn't be so surprised if it qualified after all.... but I doubt it!
Serbia -Moje 3 - Ljubav je svuda
I must admit being a big fan of Serbian Eurovision but it took me awhile to warm up to this. Maybe I was (like many others it seems now) too stuck on the Serbian ballad formula? Anyways, this is one of the songs that has been playing in my head for weeks already and Serbian language always sounds so good. All 3 girls have good voices and actually this song is better when only heard! Strange as the girls are also pretty! Maybe it's a sign they need to polish their act and not make it too complicated and distracting. This said I suspect they will sail to the final without difficulties and what happens there remains to be seen.... la la la la la!
Montenegro -Who See ft. Nina Zizic - Igranka
Montenegro once again is doing something completely different from the others. We kind of continue first with last year's entry but then the beat comes, Nina joins in and we move on. And I like this more and more and hope they will qualify! Only thing is we haven't yet seen it performed live, what will they do? Will it be a solid performance of will it all fall apart? The video may or may not give us some clues but I'm afraid it might be a bit confusing in the end and play against them....
