Melodi Grand Prix: Semi Final One (Tonight 18.45 GMT)

[Haiku Rewrites]

WHAT HAPPENS NOW?

Public votes, 3 songs of the 6 go through.

 

[Sheena]

3/6 will qualify for the finals.

Just one round of voting?

 

[Sheena]

I liked everything bar BORING BOY

 

[Haiku Rewrites]

If it's like last year, instead of just announcing the three qualifiers, they go to each act one by one and tell them either they qualified or that they are out, I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out of Here style.

 

[VoR]

I believe so. There's no AC round, they all go straight through or straight out.

 

[FetchFugly]

I found the awkward dancing cute but I wonder if it might harm her chances

To be fair she also did a little awkward dancing for I Feed You My Love.

 

[GinAg (39)]

MORE CONFETTI!

 

[VoR]

Gothminister and (hopefully) Margo seem the obvious top two in some order.

Third... maybe Woman Show? That or the sultry bop.

 

[GinAg (39)]

Now the season has truly begun, I hope we're not too many Saturdays away from some MONGE

 

[RJN]

Based on these clips only

1. Ingrid Jasmin

[RJN]

What was that ballad duet with the Michael Bolton looking guy?

 

[Haiku Rewrites]

What was that ballad duet wiTth the Michael Bolton looking guy?

The 1994 Norway entry for Eurovision, 20th anniversary.

 

[RJN]

What was that ballad duet with the Michael Bolton looking guy?

oh nvm she's singing it now

 

[win_the_game]

What was that ballad duet with the Michael Bolton looking guy?

Whoever it is, they've done him up something rotten with that hologram.

 

[VoR]

What was that ballad duet with the Michael Bolton looking guy?

It was the Norwegian entry in 1994. She's Eurovision royalty, he was a big star who died young.

 

[RJN]

Imagine just standing there waiting for the hologram to finish his part

 

[RJN]

It was the Norwegian entry in 1994. She's Eurovision royalty, he was a big star who died young.

I think I love it

 

[Sheena]

They could have updated his PERM

 

[Suomi]

To be fair she also did a little awkward dancing for I Feed You My Love.

Yes and I loved the little nod to it

 

[Sheena]

Nice to see BETTAN trying but failing to EEK OUT A TEAR

 

[FetchFugly]

I will not complain about MF interval shenanigans again.

 

[VoR]

OOH a bit of protest!

 

[Sheena]

YAY!

 

[Sheena]

The look on old PUCE’S face

 

[GinAg (39)]

The lass in mustard AGREED

 

[win_the_game]

Her in the mustard had quite the FACE on her.

 

[Sheena]

Both of them weren’t HAPPY

 

[Sheena]

That mustard brown outfit is appalling

 

[FetchFugly]

This is truly an excessive amount of ANALYSIS, I feel like I am watching sport.

 

[GinAg (39)]

I low key expect that to be only the first anti-Israel protest we'll see.

 

[Sheena]

This is truly an excessive amount of ANALYSIS, I feel like I am watching sport.

WELL, you ARE!

 

[VoR]

The way they announce this is so mean

 

[Sheena]

YAY MARGO!

 

[Tisch]

The way they announce this is so mean

Especially making TINY TIM stand up there

 

[VoR]

Unsurprising but DESERVED.

Surely Gothminister now?

 

[Sheena]

Tinsel Boy KNEW THE SCORE

 

[FetchFugly]

TOO RIGHT

 

[Haiku Rewrites]

They couldn't have got the guy in crutches a chair while announcing on the stage he is out of the competition?

 

[Tisch]

Have they been told beforehand? Both of the delegations who haven't got through looked like they knew, and Tiny Tim DEFINITELY knew just then

 

[Sheena]

There’s Tess Merkel energy about old PINK TITS
