Smoke and a wind machine accompany Anxhela Peristeri during her performance. A lot of red and black make it clear that this is Albania, in addition to the fact that Anxhela sings in her own language. Anxhela surprises with her strong-voiced ballad, perhaps one of the best of the festival.
Tornike starts out in the dark with only a spotlight on him. During the song there is more color in the graphics: initially clouds and stars, then also beautiful orange sunlight. Tornike does not move throughout the song. Vocally he presented the ballad perfectly. The Georgian entry, which has gone
Today the third day of the rehearsals started, 9 countries performed for the first time on the Eurovision stage. As a tradition also this year the accredited press (in the press center and via live stream) were be asked to give their votes for the best act. Do you agree??
Today we have watched another 9 first rehearsals at Day 3. In our opinion Greece, Iceland and Austria impressed the most, all in a completely different way.

As expected, the ladies of Hurricane appear on stage in cozy romping outfits. the expectation was that the dance would make more of an impression than the singing. It didn’t. The ladies proved that they can sing quite well, and hopefully they will take a few more dance lessons.
Daði Freyr with band Gagnamagnið are obviously dressed in their trademark; the well-known sweater with an image in pixels.

Natalia Gordienko takes the stage in a pearl-colored dress, which occasionally looks pink due to the lighting. She is assisted by 4 dancers in black. This makes Moldova not the first country to have 4 dancers in the lead, while the backing vocals are on tape. Natalia certainly stood out
Rafał Brzozowski appears on stage in black wearing dark sunglasses, flanked by 4 dancers in white. The visual effects, as well as the vocals and act seem messy. Poland still has some work to do. In Cooperation with Eurovision Artists Photo Credits: EBU
Vincent Bueno is dressed in black with a black glitter jacket. The staging is sober and fits the song perfectly, suggesting that he is standing on a large bridge. Vocally, he more than lives up to expectations. In Cooperation with Eurovision Artists Photo Credits: EBU
Stefania is wearing a purple silver jumpsuit, which is reflected in the graphics. A spectacular show was announced in advance, and the high expectations were fully realized.
