    I had 8/10 which is better than semi 1. Iceland & Czech Republic instead of Lithuania and Poland.

    Disappointed about the Czech Republic, would have exchanged them for Cyprus, but other than that I'm fairly happy.

    App voting really is fun! :D Did anyone else use it?

    So happy for Knez :D! I really thought he'd miss out. No voting friends at all in the semi.

    *cheer*

    How is Marty Whelan taking it? His outrage at not qualifying is always worth watching.

    The standouts tonight for me were Lithuania, Latvia, Montenegro, Israel, Slovenia and of course Sweden.

    Norway was very disappointing. Azerbaijan also not as epic as I was expecting.

    The less said about bloody Cyprus and Poland the better. The lady from Poland didn't even perform well tonight either!

    I was really impressed with Montenegro, one of the best staged Balkan ballads ever.

    Gutted for Switzerland and the Czech Republic. They were both fantastic.

    So pleased for Latvia and Montenegro. Both got it spot on.

    The first time we've had the Baltic nations united since 2003?!

    So many underdogs making it through Montenegro, Slovenia, Cyprus, Belgium, Poland.

    I predicted 7/10 so one better than semi 1.

    I thought Maria was terrible tonight, unfortunately, so I can't be too sad about her not getting through. Knez was tonight's big surprise for me - really enjoyed it. I enjoyed Cyprus more than usual, too.

    Not badly at all, I think he expected it. He was saying all night how it's such a strong semi final and was tipping every song to do well during the postcard..

    It seems to be the way that songs which get a great audience reaction are last to be announced. Cruel Jon Ola.

    I thought Ireland was pretty poor vocally.
