2nd semi-final of Eurovision

Here are my thoughts on the 2nd semi final :)

Serbia
The vocals were great and I liked the melody of the song. The performance was touching, the costumes looked good and the stage built the mood very well.
Rating: 5/5
F.Y.R. Macedonia
The vocals were good, I thought the song kicked in a bit late but after it did it held my attention for the remainder and I liked the mix of classical music and rock. I liked the performance and how the performers were placed on the stage, I liked the costumes and the stage looked good.
Rating: 5/5
The Netherlands
The vocals were good and I liked the high notes although the song was just okay. The performance was okay but I didn't get what was up with that Native American headgear.. Anyways, I liked the look of the stage.
Rating. 3/5
Malta
The male vocals were good except for the "Eh, Eh" thing but the female singer was awful. The song was entertaining and lively and the performance was also. The costumes were okay but I didn't like the stage desing.
Rating: 3/5
Belarus
I didn't like the vocals because his accent made it sound like he was singing " Bracking down the wall" and the ending was horrid. The song was generic and boring and the performance was forgettable. The costumes were dreadful and the stage was ugly and forgettable.
Rating: 0/5
Portugal
The vocals were great but the song was just okay. The performance was emotional and passionate. The costuems were really good, especially the singer's golden dress and the stage was great and actually fit in well with her dress.
Rating: 4,5/5
Ukraine
The vocals were mediochre and kind of thick in a bad way. The song is slightly annoying after a while of her repeating the phrase "be my guest" over and over again while being accompanied by annoying trumpets it gets very repetitive. The performance was nothing special although the guys with the trumpets were okay. The dress didn't look good on the singer and the stage was both disorienting and headache inducing.
Rating: 0/5
Bulgaria
The vocals were bad and out of tune and the song was bland. The performance was boring, the costuming horrendous and the stage forgettable.
Rating: 0/5
Slovenia
I didn't like the vocals, especially the ones of the blonde singer though the brunette wasn't good either. The song was generic and kinda boring. The performance did feel forced but both the costumes and stage looked pretty good.
Rating: 2/5
Croatia
The vocals lacked power and the song was just okay. I didn't like the performance as the choreography was pretty bad and the singers just stood still so it felt like a strange mix of awkward and dull. I didn't like the costumes and the stage was forgettable and bland.
Rating: 0,5/5
Sweden
The vocals were good and the song had a beautiful and flowing melody. The performance was superb and I liked the choreography. I liked the costuming, espacially how flowing her clothes were and the usage of wind. The stage was really atmospheric and I liked how they used the lights.
Rating: 5/5
Georgia
The vocals were okay though the accent was a bit distracting and the song was okay. The performance was okay, I liked the girls' costumes and the stage was forgettable.
Rating: 1,5/5
Turkey
The vocals were irritating and bad and the song was generic. I didn't like the performance the costumes were nothing special and the stage was simply mediochre.
Rating: 0/5
Estonia
The vocals were good and the song was okay. The performance was okay, the costumes were good and the stage looked good.
Rating: 4/5
Slovakia
Yes! After 6 years there's finally another rock band in Eurovision!! The vocals were good, I thoroughly enjoyed the song and felt it was a real rock song. The performance, costumes and stage design were all perfect.
Rating: 5/5
Norway
The vocals were dissapointing. They lacked power and went out of tune in the end. The song was mediochre at best and the performance was okay. The costumes were nothing special and so was the stage.
Rating: 0,5/5
Bosnia and Hersegovina
The vocals and song were bland and so was the performance. The costume was horrible and the stage was bland.
Rating: 0/5
Lithuania
The vocals were good and the song was nothing special. The performance started off bland, I liked the cartwheel he did when the tempo changed but he didn't keep up the energy. I found the rhinestone headband a bit too flashy for me and I didn't like the stage.
