It was eleven acts’ chance at a second rehearsal at this year’s Eurovision. Some were singing for redemption after a weak first rehearsal. For others, it was just another day in the office, proving that their package is ready and raring to go next week.

And Norway has take Finlands song from last year.
Pure emotion and focus from North Macedonia’s Tamara
Sweden and Greece are so overrated!the first with such an ordinary song and with a “sow it again “staging!the second with a staging and a stilling that just doesn’t fit with that kind of song and to the singer especially..too much sugary
Italy are overrated to…
Not similar.
I agree 100%.
I’ve seen 30 seconds of his first rehearsal and he instantly just reminded me of Cesar Sampson.
So glad someone else thinks this! Didn’t even consider Austria last year but then it did very well with the juries. Sweden must have taken notice.
Austria‘s performance is very touching -goosebumps!
My clear winner of the 2nd rehearsals that day.
Robyn, do you know if there are any Eurovision viewing parties in Auckland New Zealand?

IRELAND!!!
Austria and Sweden
Sweden
Austria’s clip is the only one in which the wide shots make sense
Austria’s performance was mesmerizing, nothing as expected and theyre the potential dark horse. GO PAENDA!
Sweden stands out by a mile in the recap. John and the backing singers give such an energetic, high quality performance.
A lot of people say SF2 is the one with greater quality, but actually I think this first half is quite weak.
Greece is still amazing, and most probably the winner of sf 1. It is a potential winner (it is top 5 for me, and it should reach it) San Marino had vocal issues, but staging wise it’s good and appropritate, could qualify. Armenia was the best one for me today, at least camera angle wise and vocally she killed it. I fear that it could come off as scary, I hope I’m wrong and I think I am. Coming next to last in the press poll is a crime, tho. Ireland was fine, but it seems really random staging and… Read more »
Greece and Sweden look very solid. But I would say today’s winner was Austria, they showed they’re alive and kicking.
Having a look to the comments on youtube, Paenda will B one of the dark horses. Credible, authentic, touching, surprising.
Greece and Sweden had the best rehearsals!Actually Greece will win semi final 1,great aesthetics and unique voice!
Australia will win the semi-final.
Australia, Serbia and Iceland
Im gonna say it: Sweden is The Netherlands’ biggest rival. That rehearsal was amazing.
I loved the Melo staging. It was IMPECCABLE. I don’t know about this one, I don’t like that much what I saw in the official video.
Odds changed dramatically.
Greece and Sweden were pretty good.
Sweden was the best today.
Austria was just incredibly beautiful, it was stunning. They are most certainly back in the running for the final!
Question to Team Wiwi : from the official snippets of the rehearsals, the camerawork looks bad for almost every act, with weird transitions and way too many wide angle shots. Is it just an impression or does it look different in the press room’s TV ?
Thank you for all your coverage of the rehearsals !
Good question. It was horrible today
Yes i agree, i thought it was just me but nothing seems to be coming together right this year, the camera work seems to be way off and so many artists are having problems with other issues, i really hope it all comes together for the semis and final because at the moment im just not getting the usual eurovision vibe i get when it gets nearer to the live shows.
Greece by far
Greece and Austria
