[@annmarie6398]

Thank you Matt for your heartwarming reaction when they called The Netherlands

[@irondasgr]

It's a typical american sound and he is american, so...

[@MsVsimoes]

I was Sean during this. Completely tense and on the edge of my seat till they said HUNGARY. Totally relaxed and just enjoying the ride afterwards. XD

[@bammer180and1]

So happy Hungary made it!

[@lello85]

I am in love with this!!!!! Portugal thank you so much for organizing wholeheartedly the Eurovision this year. It was a pleasure! Love from Hungary!

[@buddhidev7877]

So this year there will be no Russia, Azerbaijan, Armenia, Romania and Poland. My only disappointment was Georgia didn't qualify. I didn't complain Norway qualified even I didn't like it that much. Slovenia stands out a lot, and my last night's winner is Serbia, then Hungary then Moldova then Ukraine them the Netherlands.

[@AllAboutNightcore]

As a Dutchie, It's so nice to see someone was so concerned for the Netherlands

[@mei-ling5467]

You guys are hard working. Thanks for your coverage! Great!

[@petarmajerofficial]

After every announcement matt is trying to count who else is going through and he forgets Poland every time😂

[@sarahm3677]

[@mirroroffthewall5932]

my ears are broken now

[@denisokorokov1489]

Ukraine

[@ahmedlubickozy5250]

Poland 😢 😢 😢 😢

[@dawidekpieron3859]

Tomasz Oświeciński kiedy inna stacja telewizyjna niz tvp zajmie sie eurowizja to moze cos osiagniemy.....

[@mediacybart]

Tomasz Oświeciński apparently it's all about the music....or so they say. Political music.

[@ahmedlubickozy5250]

TVN I Polsat to są stacje prywatne więc mało prawdopodobne... Jedyną słuszną decyzją jest rezygnacja z Eurowizji... Bo co roku tragedia! A sytuacja polityczna też nam w tym nie pomaga 😡

[@mikrokupu]

The singing wasn't good, the Finnish TV commentator: "Was he nervous, Poland sounded much better in the rehearsal.."

[@mediacybart]

Tomasz Oświeciński agreed. There's not a slightest chance for our artist to achieve a thing...the politics reflects on every single thing we do. Bez sensu...szkoda mi tych ludzi bo fajną muzę robią....

[@Romee125]

Your reaction by the Netherlands! Haha

[@tanjaperhat6823]

You guys are so sweet

[@78kokka]

Tag yourself: I'm the guy in the background esulting for Moldova at 0:54.

[@dindamuhareni5136]

Thanks God I set low volume

[@evamagyar6072]

Przykro mi, że nasi polscy znajomi nie poszli dalej ... Piosenka była dobra! Witamy na Węgrzech!

[@IABITVpresents]

did you realize how many people did you make deaf by having them listening to the livestream via headphones

[@seanpierce2943]

haha I didn't read the description. Thank goodness I wan't using headphones.

[@nelebuys74]

During this time... Serbia : YESSSSS I TOOK MY REVENGE FOR YIANNA, ZIBBZ AND SEVAK Moldova : Yesss Go DoReDos Hungary : YESSSS Ukraine : YESSSS Sweden : EXPECTED AS ALWAYS Australia : Why this stupidity ?! Norway : Yesss, expected Now Tell Denmark, Slovenia and Netherlands And then... DENMARK : YESSS GO RAZMUSSEN Slovenia : YESSSSSSSSS The Netherlands : Yessss Quite sad for Poland, Latvia and Malta, but I’m the only one who was happy for these results !! I would change Australia with Georgia or Romania or Montenegro

[@shayyy3547]

MY EARS MY EARS WHYYYYYY!!!!!!😦😦😫😫😵😵😵😵

[@nielsreviewsmusic3055]

Sounds like an avalange

[@francis6888]

[@ramofenty8114]

[@crsx1861]

Malta should have gone through instead of Norway

[@EntrEsprit]

0:28 TRIGGERED

[@roxystark5744]

I know I've said it many times, but I was so nervous! Like... they announced 4 qualifiers, but still no Sweden, so I was in panic, haha. I am happy for Serbia, I voted for them. I wish Poland and Montenegro qualified, but... okay

[@anjalela5491]

I can understand why u are so surprised abound Poland! It was the worse performace of the entire competition! he stucks during all the song! And at least, I've never understand why Australia is in this competition. Its more than 14 h away from Europe! She has taken the place of one of the europian country and it's not fair!

[@anjalela5491]

CAPSFANATIC totally agree!

[@anjalela5491]

CAPSFANATIC well we have to change the name of the competition!

[@dominicmicheli3350]

😂😂 ahhhhhhhh

[@DjamieA]

This is some good earrape

[@thomasm4686]

GDANSK 2020

[@potr6480]

i thought efe didnt like australia

[@PomaranczowyKotek]

Poland :(

[@xxjustinaxx3708]

Netherlands 😘

[@redarrowism]

no Malta wtf...

[@Sjorsito]

The guy on the right side is clueless...

[@dajnova1148]

Russia out. Poland out. #historywillbemade

[@haricric03]

Ireland third in odds.l

[@nejcrot5245]

when they didnt sispect serbia to qualify 0:28 ear rape style

[@KennyThaGamer7]

Plz someone tell Efe that you either clap to countries or you don't. Don't be that asshole who claps sarcasticly and looks smirky in the camera. Honestly no idea why this guy is on your team, he drags your proffesionalism down by alot.

[@mediacybart]

Poland...as per usual. I don't think we should be takin part in this anymore. We've got enough of politics already.

[@arwena1659]

I'm sure San Marino and Russians tell themselves the same: we didn't qualify because of the politics!

[@mediacybart]

Arwena165 have you heard what was said before the 2nd semi final? A bit of a recap:" ...let's hope Poland will not be treated the same as every year". That is a comment made by one of the jury member. Thank you.

[@mikrokupu]

Arwena 165 Yes those damn San Marinos, resist them! :P Seriously, many weak songs in semi 2, Poland's problem was the weak singing, damn Swedes! ,)

[@arwena1659]

mikrokupu Yep, it was all obvious since March, but hardly any progres was made by Lukas. I think it's a combination of two factors: average song + bad vocals. If someone wants to blame politics for everything, be my guest, people.

[@mediacybart]

Arwena165 Oh was it obvious since March? We thought people rather enjoyed the song...but since it was that bad😂😂😂 Best regards!!! Congratulations for your country tho 😀😀😀 we don't discuss the taste here.

[@heyman-ng3te]

sounds from hell

[@recycle-bin-camp]

minus ears

[@Tomperox]

Semi2 was so lame, yet the worst songs qualified... Europe WYD? No Malta, Poland????

[@nicolaygarciadelacueva5026]

ear rape

[@ricohofmann8416]

In general Semi Final 2 was a vocally Nightmare and really Good Vocalist are eliminated. There Only few great and deserved Qualifiers and they are: Sweden,Norway,Denmark,Slovenia,Ukraine. Hungary horrible.Moldova , okay Australia, Oh Boy . Dancing was good but the Rest i'm speechles The Netherlands, a disapointment since the beginning and after i watched Waylon's Performance i started to like "La Forza" Serbia also horrible. The Only other really great Acts, which deserved the qualification for the Vocals, Latvia and Romania are eliminated now. This Semi Final was in general a "Vocal Nightmare" But my biggest congratulations to: Sweden,Norway,Ukraine,Denmark,Slovenia You all did an amazing Job in The " Semi Final Horror Story"

[@JT_From_Outer_Space]

Uhm.... Hungary was amazing vocally. You're allowed to not like this Kind of Music, but claiming that the vocals were ''horrible'' is delusional and dumb.

[@Funkytrip73]

Cant take you seriously if you complain about vocal nightmares and eliminated good vocalists and then call Waylons performance horrible. He is one of the if not the best vocalist out there.

[@priya9194]

Latvian snoozefest over Hungary? nope 🤣🤣

[@memshin3]

I was right 9 out of ten. I dont know why Netherlands made it and I knew Norway would, though I did'nt like thier song.. Sorry that Russia did'nt make it. the song was good the singer too and the staging and the dance was fabulous. just tell me one thing - how come so many countries were allowed thier electronic tools including synthesizer and Israel could'nt use the looper??? makes me wonder. I also wonder why the Israeli delegation does not protest

[@starvid1310]

Are you kidding about Russia? You call it "singing"?

[@Merlaie]

The Netherlands made it because of his vocals. He was one of the best this semi-final. Russia on the other hand... She was a mess. Her vocals were really bad and the song wasn't good enough. And if you don't sing that wel, then you're out. Look at Poland. He couldn't hit the high notes. And the looper is an instrument according to EBU. And you aren't allowed to play the instruments live. All the instruments you saw on the stage were just probs.
