It’s almost time to wrap up wiwivision — our alternative song contest — for another year. But we still have one more job left to do. If you haven’t watched the grand final results show yet, we advise you catch-up. Because spoilers lie ahead as we reveal the full breakdown of the results for semi-final one and semi-final two.
The full results for both semis are laid out below, along with the jury/televote split. If you want to analyse these in further detail and see each individual juror score click HERE.
wiwivision 2016: Semi-final one results
The first semi-final was won comfortably by Sweden, with Zara Larsson and MNEK picking up a very impressive 277 points for “Never Forget You”. Eva Simons of the Netherlands placed a distant second, receiving 193 points for “Bludfire”. The split results show that the juries and televoters were largely in agreement as to what countries should qualify. Their sole clash was in regards to Croatia’s Maja Suput and “Na Lomi Mi Srce”. The televoters would rather have seen Greece’s Demy progress with “Tha Meineis Feugontas”, ranking her fifth. However, she failed to impress the juries and missed out on the final by five points.

wiwivision 2016: semi-final two results
Australia’s Delta Goodrem won the grand final in a landslide with “Wings”, and unsurprisingly she also won the second semi-final with ease. She wracked up 278 points, well ahead of Denmark’s MØ in second. Unlike the first semi, there was a lot of disagreement between the jury and televote rankings. The juries wanted Israel and Belarus to qualify, while the televoters backed Georgia and Bulgaria. However, the juries did succeed in pushing Ukraine over the line, while Ireland progressed thanks to the public. In the midst of everything, Latvia’s Masha managed to slip through to the final, despite not placing in the top 13 of either group.

NE lomi mi srce.
@Charles is totally right!
@Plum: Russia needs no politically charged songs to showcase how “egocentric” it can be even within the context of Eurovision … it’s the whole vibe around them that speaks volumes of how much Russia wants to win Eurovision no matter what: it’s a question of such pride that no loss is acceptable … specially when you have to loose against one of your “sisters”. But even in family, no matter how much the two sisters may be hating on one another, they can’t get away from one another … it’s a love-hate relationship only sisters understand. Therefore … I do… Read more »
Delta Goodrem is Australia’s logical choice for the next EV invite. Go Delta.
@Charles
You are Wonderful! Wasn’t it Russia who entered ESC this year without any political intention?
Russia hasn’t confirmed the participation in 2017 and I hope it won’t.
This whole Wiwivision is exactly what? .. a song contest among the fans … or another popularity competition? If so … Delta Goodrem’s victory makes complete sense on both popularity and song. But this being true song contest where people bother to actually listen to the music regardless of the popularity of the singer … never in a million years. If Eurovision itself has a hard time being that … much less any kindergarten version of it. To be honest I am surprised that everyone went for Delta than for Zara – even in the “make believe” world of ESC… Read more »
@ninasublatti: And why shouldn’t they? Do you believe that a political tension is reason enough to prevent them from showcasing their very own sense of ego and pride above everything and everybody? Russia inherited from its dead “mother land” the need to be above the rest of the world … and doesn’t matter where Eurovision is held, they are there and you will take notice of it because they will throw it at your face no matter what. And if it happens to lose again next year, make sure they will make a fuzz about it refusing to accept such… Read more »
@ ninasublatti
What is the source of the info we’ve never heard?
I am Russian if something.
Really sad for Greece! 🙁
poor estonia finishing last again
My goodness, Zara Larsson has to be the most overrated thing on the planet right now. She has a couple cute songs but that’s it. I’m glad talent dethroned her in the final!
wiwibloggs, Malta has selected their representative for JESC 2016, it’s Christina Magrin.
@ninasublatti is right, in Wikipedia it says that Russia will participate at Eurovision 2017! That’s quite surprising but I’m not sure if it’s true.
Ukraine, Russia, Bosnia and Herzegovina are underrated. In my opinion Australia is overrated. This song is good but not winner. Songs from Albania and Sweden are better.
@ninasublatti
Where can I read this information? I want to see Russia in next year:)
San Marino and Macedonia are underrated. And it is a sad year for Estonia, 42nd overall 2 times a year.
Plus, I didn’t see full jury rankings, only the points.
@oooops Just like last year, each jury only ranked their top 10. As there is only one person on each jury it’s unnecessary to rank every song from top to bottom.
