Denmark and Slovenia


DENMARK -
Like an oasis in a desert, here comes Denmark with a really good popsong. Brinck does struggle with the higher parts of the chorus, and we're a little concerned that the countries in this semi may not be as friendly to this song as we are. But Norway and Ireland will certainly throw it some sizeable points. This is one of the best songs so far, and we will be very disappointed if it doesn't get through.



SLOVENIA -
This song caused some real problems earlier today. Setting the stage is tricky, as there are 5 doorframes, each covered with paper. So the short break has been moved to before this song to give the stage crew more time to set things up. The performance looks a bit messy, with bits of paper hanging off the doorframes, and I think visually the shadow idea gets a bit boring. The lead singer tonight was struggling with the vocals (but as you will have worked out, she can join a long list of performers who aren't quite hitting the notes....) A borderline qualifier, but more likely not to get through.
