Grr - Graham says how the Big 5 is the big five because they finance Eurovison. It's not it's the EBU. Falsehood like that fulfell the Europe hates us despite us funding the contest myths.
Well, Eurovision (the TV exchange, not the Song Contest) is a big part of what the EBU is all about.

I am just saying that Graham should say its funding for the producers of the contest, the EBU, who also do a lot more else important.
#RUS This is Sergey Lazarev's second attempt at representing Russia in the ESC. I particularly wanted this to qualify for the final. This is a different song style to his 2016 effort, but I likethis one. I'd say it's the best song so far tonight/ Sergey has a powerful voice, I like the multiple images of him, and the forks of lightning. A definite top ten contender.
#DNK Leonora has a beautiful voice, and "Love is forever" is a nice ballad, I think the style of song sounds worryingly similar to Switzerland's "In Love for a While" which finished last with just 19 points in ESC 2011. What's the significance of the giant chair? This too could finish bottom of the scoreboard this year.
#SMR Undeniably fun and catchy, but as much as I like it, I'd have preferred Poland, Hungary or Belgium, all of which were superior quality, in place of this.

Surprised he had time to mention the EBU considering he should have spent the first ten minutes advising viewers how to print the scorecard off the BBC website.
#SWE Sweden have gone for a gospel ballad this year. Although I didn't think much of it when I saw it win Melodifestivalen Final 2019 on Saturday 9 March 2019, I liked it in the ESC second semi-final and wanted this to qualify. This is one of the best songs so far, I like the light column and the accompanying gospel singers. Top 5, but I don't think this will win.
