Austria did very well! Lets forget the song, I dont like greasy love songs too much, but they sang very very well, I only heard one wrong note. They sang with 3 voices, I am dead proud. We were one of the only countries singing in our native language.

I loved the Netherlands, again! I have a thing for songs with guitars. Another favourite of mine so far, Germany! Max did well, the wrong notes at times are forgotten because the song was good, and Stefan Rab rocks anyway. The Malta song was good as well, France too, I think for the first time in years it would be easier to list the countries that did not well. The contest hasnt been so good since a very long time.

To the second half: The cyprus girl was better than on Wednesday. I loved the irish singer, he looked beyond cute, I want to keep him, the song was aweful though. Russia, eww, not good. Poland, very very unique I would say. England good as always.

Following countries could win this year after my opinion: Malta, Greece, Cyprus. They were different, and stayed in my memory the longest.

My prognosis for us (Austria), I think we can be found somewhere between place 20-24. But we wont die without holding our flag high! Results under more.

Happy (belated) birthday Nadine! and Happy (early) birthday Heather! Make sure to wish them something.
