|| 🇫🇮 || ❌ || FINLAND - Maria Olafsdottir of 2016. Maria Yaremchuk of 2016. Jemini of 2016. I was so disappointed in seeing this live that it may have dropped from 7th to 17th place (out of 18). Submit SAARA next year.
|| 🇬🇷 || ❌ || GREECE - This song isn't good, but it certainly should have qualified. I was quite impressed by the staging but the rapping probably ruined it for most of us.
|| 🇲🇩 || ❌ || MOLDOVA - Mum go home you're embarrassing me. (Worst stage of semi 1).
|| 🇭🇺 || ⭕️ || HUNGARY - My husband... I'm surprised he managed to beat out Estonia and Iceland, but his song is very empowering and he has a unique voice that's an acquired taste.
|| 🇭🇷 || ⭕️ || CROATIA - This was going to qualify, I knew from the start. I'm not very happy about it, but she did have nice clothes on.
|| 🇳🇱 || ⭕️ || NETHERLANDS - I'm honestly so upset that this qualified, but the Netherlands rarely qualify anyway so I'm not too disgusted. This guy is a shitty version of The Common Linnets. To think I had him last place once is pretty funny. I wonder how he managed to squeeze up into 29th.
|| 🇦🇲 || ⭕️ || ARMENIA - To be honest, I'm most glad about this country qualifying. Even though I have no idea what she's saying, she's very beautiful and brings a unique flavour into the contest.
|| 🇸🇲 || ❌ || SAN MARINO - *crickets*
|| 🇷🇺 || ⭕️ || RUSSIA - I mean, it was definitely no secret that this would qualify. Good looking lad, mesmerising staging, catchy song. Oh, and let's not forget that IT'S RUSSIA.
|| 🇨🇿 || ⭕️ || CZECH REPUBLIC - Yaaaay! Czechia finally gets a place in the final. I knew the staging would be gorgeous and so was she. I loved her dress.
|| 🇨🇾 || ⭕️ || CYPRUS - Most people are mad that this qualified, but I'm not too bothered. At least there's one rock song in the final.
|| 🇦🇹 || ⭕️ || AUSTRIA - And on the other end of the spectrum, I'm furious that this qualified. This song is so boring and she did absolutely nothing on stage. Gross.
|| 🇪🇪 || ❌ || ESTONIA - If you want a country that definitely should have qualified, it's Estonia. The song was so different and Jüri is so adorable, I have no idea how you can't pass him up. This is my third favourite song of all 42 acts and I'm so upset to see him go.
|| 🇦🇿 || ⭕️ || AZERBAIJAN - Once again, shouldn't have qualified. Her vocals were almost as bad as Sandhja's from Finland, but at least she has a powerful song.
|| 🇲🇪 || ❌ || MONTENEGRO - I talk a lot about how countries should submit unique songs, but everyone agrees that this country took it too far.
|| 🇮🇸 || ❌ || ICELAND - NOOO! Another one of my top 10 songs falls victim to the dreaded televoters. I'll miss you Greta Salami...
|| 🇧🇦 || ❌ || BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA - Bye bitch.
|| 🇲🇹 || ⭕️ || MALTA - This song definitely deserved it's place in the final. It's the most favoured song out of all of my friends, and the staging was okay too. I wouldn't be mad to see Valletta 2017.
