Slovenia’s Eurovision 2022 selection process is slowly winding up. After revealing the running order for the EMA 2022 semi-finals, broadcaster RTVSLO has now released snippets of the eight songs already qualified for semi-final two.

It’s a our first chance to hear 30 seconds of each song from the pre-qualified artists. They’ll be joined by two further competitors who qualify through EMA FREŠ – the search for up-and-coming talent. Snippets are already out for the EMA FREŠ finalists.

Snippets of the pre-qualified songs in semi-final one were released on Thursday.

EMA 2022: Show details

Slovenia will select its act for Eurovision 2022 on Saturday 19 February. But there are three qualifying shows to come before the EMA 2022 grand final — the EMA FREŠ final on 28 January, semi-final one on 5 February and semi-final two on 12 February.

Each semi-final will feature eight pre-qualified acts alongside two EMA FREŠ qualifiers. There will be six qualifiers on both nights, with the public televote selecting three and an expert jury choosing another three, resulting in a 12 song final. The overall winner will be determined by a 50/50 split between the public and a jury made up of five different panels.

Vedran grabbed my attention immediately. Interested in hearing the other 2.30 minutes of that, I hope it’s the kind of hypnotic techno-folk the snippet suggests

So the most generic songs that will fail hard at the Eurovision stage?

From 30 sec. no song really screams WINNER. Probably most potential have July Jones and Mia Gu?ek. And form EMA FREŠ Luma and Katja Kos. From both semi-finals: I’m sad that all songs in Slovenian language are nothing special. Most of them are just normal radio-friendly pop songs. No-one really sings their songs from the heart. And I doubt that people can even connect to any of them. There is simply no soul or energy in them. And from this one: All the songs in Slovenian are just… meh… average, probably would not even come to finals in Eurovision. Mostly… Read more »

Hopeful BQL doesn’t switch languages if they ever qualify from their semi.

Independiente was my favourite from this semi. Overall I found this more underwhelming than semi 1 but it is so hard to tell with only 30 seconds to play with.

It all seems way more generic then we’d like. I honestly don’t know what to predict.

How is it that there are better songs in fresh songs than in the well-known ones, I would prefer Gaja Prestor or Raiven to come back, because BQL, I was counting on something good and fast, and we have a ballad, it’s still better than what they have recently performed folk songs

Ballads, the scorn of the Eurofan.

BQL’s composition sounds as unremarkable as the rest, so at least nobody will get robbed this time.

Nothing bad, but nothing great either.

After listening all the songs, I think Mia Gu?ek – “Independiente” is Slovenia’s only chance for possible qualification. Pretty weak selection this year. Unfortunate.

It’s better than the first semi! But still it’s hard to understand with those short snippets
