Belgium and Serbia

Belgium

We are delighted that Belgium is in the final, and it's become our personal favourite.  It's perhaps a bit of a shame it's been drawn so early in the contest and so near to Cyprus, but there's something so appealing about both the song and the singer.  Tom makes some really good eye-contact with the cameras.  It's giving us goosebumps!  For us, this is the best so far, and if there's any justice it will win.  Douze points.


Serbia

This song has got quite a good draw.  We've grown to like it a lot, but initially we did think it was a bit strange.  One thing last night's 2nd semi proved is you need to remember your first impression when you heard and saw a song.  We're sure this will get 12 points from every ex-Yugoslav country, but will the likes of Iceland, UK and Spain 'get' it?  We're not sure they will.  But a 2nd Serbian win is definitely within reach.
