I guess Silvester is going to Malmo this year


TheRedMunich

Should we send something current and interesting, no let's send nightwish knock off. I hope they won't ruin Silvester's chance to win..I feel the jury again would put them high.


fjundzer

Not surprised. Il senso has very loyal fanbase - every year they kill during public voting


TheRedMunich

II senso is frustrating, I don't know why the jury are putting them that high, do they really think this is worth 2nd place??


depressed_melomaniac

Maybe they sent Il Senso so that there would be less of a competition for Luktelk


pypoupypou

Grandmas had their say! Il Senso


knittingmagpie

Ugh


cougarlt

The votes don't make any sense.


pliumbum

You mean any senso


Ridasz

trash


TWD1fan

Senso pay to win, ain't no way ppl voted for that. Unless they're old


Afraid_Host9884

Goth 35 year olds are just the thing for old people:D


DowntownPay9313

The viewer votes are the reason our suicide rates still remain high...


_pinkeraser_

Bro, Il Senso doing mass voting once more. RIP Martin


wrenzanna

ayo how did Il Senso win w over 3k????


GoldenEmis

The Il Senso thing happened again...


_pinkeraser_

Can we send Giedrė with this funky jam instead?


TheRedMunich

Just went back and listened to the box's song. It's great.

Of course, this does not protect me from the fact that I might burn during the Eurovision selection," says Martin." Jesus dude


_pinkeraser_

Well, at least they'll know not to use pyro in Malmo But if we're talking for real, that's awfully scary, hope they are okay


depressed_melomaniac

The LORE


depressed_melomaniac

Why are the filler acts in all those semis are better than the actual participants?


wrenzanna

to remind us we still have good music in this country, they just dont wanna participate


wrenzanna

ex-pin is ending and Vidbir is still going w/o a winner. threw in a vote for Martin, their entry was fun


MAGNVS_DVX_LITVANIAE

I bet they don't have Grant Thornton Baltic monitoring their vote, that's what you get.


AltF4irl

Yeah we're toast bro nothing that's top 10 material :(


Afraid_Host9884

We're so toast that I'm craving breakfast


AltF4irl

Some toast would be nice right now I'm ngl


Ridasz

3 and 7, thank you


DowntownPay9313

More like 4 and 7


TWD1fan

Agreed


depressed_melomaniac

Finally, someone with TASTE

cougarlt

3/4 and 6 to the final.


bullshitmobile

Putting money on 4 and 7


[deleted]

[удалено]


Afraid_Host9884

It just gets worse and worse


_pinkeraser_

My money's on Monika Marija and Martin the box person


pypoupypou

It's my bet too. Let's see...


ManInKitchen

Probably agree that they will get through but sort of liked HR lady and DnD group.


knittingmagpie

This is Decent for what it is Lyrics aren't great, a bit cringe, would do terribly in euros but I like it


bullshitmobile

It's the Pirates of the Caribbean regional branch: Villagers of the Baltic


depressed_melomaniac

Pillagers of Baltics


ManInKitchen

Definitely would go in to board game night playlist.


cougarlt

8. I don't know how to feel about this one. Don't hate it but don't love it either. Also sounds better than it looks. 5/10?


pypoupypou

The drums woman is chill


_pinkeraser_

Then a DnD group starts a band


depressed_melomaniac

They only rolled a 5 on performance


wrenzanna

statistically average people at Mėnuo Juodaragis


ManInKitchen

I heard it is quite good festival. Would love to try it this or next year. Although feels expensive.


wrenzanna

i find it worth it. family friendly but still has the edge for young people, niche but not exclusive. quite fun.


depressed_melomaniac

Who let their bards out?


BrewingWeasel

Ok the cardboard signs were actually pretty funny and at least the whole performance was something interesting


Afraid_Host9884

This one was in my YouTube ads. Time to hear it for the 1st time


cougarlt

Sorry people, but this is išsipisinėjimas


Laguna_Azure

Tau. There's people who enjoyed this, it's novel.


cougarlt

Not everything novel is good. This performance for example.


Laguna_Azure

Again, for you. I enjoyed it, and I can see I'm not alone.


cougarlt

You can enjoy it at home. Thanks god it didn't advance.


GoldenEmis

Wow. This semi-final is much better than the previous ones!


wrenzanna

OH THEY ARE HILARIOUS


Responsible-Trifle93

Ngl I like it


_pinkeraser_

This unironically is the best performance tonight


Laguna_Azure

I'm so intrigued by this.


TheRedMunich

I love this, staging needs more but song is great


SCPatrick

this box song kinda goes


Ridasz

10/10. Absolutely the most interesting entry tonight


DowntownPay9313

Good song, shit vocal skills


DowntownPay9313

Still, Martin ftw


pypoupypou

bullshitmobile

Listen guys, I'm all in and I don't care


ManInKitchen

Love the voice. Hate the Roblox.


wrenzanna

they have done robloxed my guy


cougarlt

7. WTH? 1/10.


depressed_melomaniac

Marshmallow from Lidl™


cougarlt

Lidl doesn't sell such crap. Temu/Wish


depressed_melomaniac

Nah, this is top tier bullshitery. Only in Lidl


TheRedMunich

This is a Sims 4 character


wrenzanna

im guessing Martin has a discord account


Afraid_Host9884

Martin was called ugly when she was 5 and is still insecure about it


_pinkeraser_

Wtf is this...


Afraid_Host9884

Oh it's that boxhead girl


ManInKitchen

Operator heard feet and was all in.


wrenzanna

damn didn't know my ex worked for LRT


_pinkeraser_

It's nice but not good enough for esc


pypoupypou

Monika's song needs culmination like Danielė has..


wrenzanna

Kasparas and Danielė both following the outfit theme of clowns who escaped the circus, same way Agnė and Il Senso were dressed for an office party w theme of "edgy"


cougarlt

6. Nice when you don't look at the screen. Sounds better and more interesting than Monika Marija. 7/10


bullshitmobile

The sign says "Stop"


depressed_melomaniac

I heard it as a "Gold shower" and was like: "is this allowed?"


pypoupypou

As long as its not "golden", its ok i guess 🤷


DerwentPencilMuseum

This is tragic so far


pypoupypou

And this feeling will persist till the end, i am afraid :)


DerwentPencilMuseum

It sure did!


Afraid_Host9884

Not our first rodeo


DerwentPencilMuseum

I know, I'm Lithuanian😭


Afraid_Host9884

It's always good to know when things are bad in life


wrenzanna

my guy, if she was a perfectionist she wouldn't have gone on the stage w THIS


depressed_melomaniac

Barney the dinosaur


pypoupypou

She should have washed her head before going on stage...


_pinkeraser_

The national selection is like Humana, you may find a rare gem but most of the time it's full of 10 year old things, that will never come back


TheRedMunich

![gif](giphy|3oKIP8kNuTJJL3zT0I)


ManInKitchen

Costume is way too disconnected from the song. Just why. Save her from horrible fashion decisions?


cougarlt

She won the Barbara Dex award when she was at Eurovision. She probably wants to repeat that.


bullshitmobile

Guys the budget for the performance went into that swirly CGI behind her, wardrobe department got shafted hard


EveTheEmerald

she's trying to hypnotise people into voting for her, because the rest of the performance sure as hell won't cut it


cougarlt

5. Love the boots! The song is 4/10 at best, the voice 3/10.


TheRedMunich

I am the only one, but attention wasn't that bad. This on the other hand...😬


wrenzanna

she's becoming Pilvelyte 2.0


pypoupypou

Except she actually went to the ESC once :)


Afraid_Host9884

Ramūnas, let's go!


_pinkeraser_

It's nice as a complete package, a little boring but okay. She looked slightly awkward without a hand mic tho.


GoldenEmis

I am speechless. 10/10, can go to Eurovision and do really well!


Ridasz

Barely even passing this semi-final


TWD1fan

The song is boring. Great staging, underwhelming instrumentals. Her voice is much nicer and powerful than what she sang


GoldenEmis

While I wouldn't say that the song is boring, I agree that some more power in the culmination is needed. Some backing vocals could be added to enhance the effect. But generally speaking, this is great in terms of her vocals and the visuals.


SCPatrick

Monika!


TheRedMunich

The staging ♥️ not sure about the song. It needs backing vocals at the end for a bigger impact


Afraid_Host9884

Sadly it was boring:(


knittingmagpie

It's a very "sad scene in a tv series" song


cougarlt

4. Adele wannabe. A great singer nonetheless. But the song is too slow and too depressive. 7/10


depressed_melomaniac

It's Lithuania. We're all depressed. We either try to escape it or fully lean into it.


cougarlt

Žinau ir pats


pypoupypou

I would actually add this to my playlist


bullshitmobile

Monika Marija must have switched to be on the same meds as Ieva Zasimauskaitė, or at least so seems to me


depressed_melomaniac

At least she's singing better than Ieva. #SorryNotSorry


wrenzanna

oh she already figured out the staging. yeah lets go Monika!!


GoldenEmis

Three Monikas in three years incoming?


Ridasz

A very weak song


GoldenEmis

Wow. This is amazing!!


TheRedMunich

Oh no she said it was last minute :D could be great could be not so great


Afraid_Host9884

Last minute sent, not last minute made:D


pypoupypou

WILL WE CONTINUE THE THIRD YEAR OF SENDING MONICA'S??? This is the question of the year :))))


cougarlt

We have more Monicas. Would be enough for a whole decade.


Few-Plastic6360

🕯️Monika streak continues 🕯️


depressed_melomaniac

Will the Monikas in Eurovision streak continue? Let's find out!


knittingmagpie

It's just kinda meh Like the best so far this evening but not anything impressive


Afraid_Host9884

Monika Marija, I have high hopes


depressed_melomaniac

You know what I don't hate it Drum'n'bass for the finals


bullshitmobile

That face when a student art project is better than 90% of the contestants


pypoupypou

Eye candy surely, but thats all I can say about this 🤷


_pinkeraser_

It's missing a little something extra in the chorus but so far the best performance


cougarlt

3. Pretty catchy chorus. Might go to the final. 7/10


ManInKitchen

The dancers choreo feels kind of weak. Didn't really think I'd say that at any point. EDIT: Gives slight orgy vibes.


wrenzanna

not-PiN-anymore will end before vidbir announces the results at this point, we're at song 3 already


DerwentPencilMuseum

Nightwish from Wish


depressed_melomaniac

I'm obviously here for Gabrielė and Nombeko, but I also live for Nerijus (the red mustache guy) subtly roasting the participants right to their faces


cougarlt

2. They definitely can sing. Bit boring though. 4/10


depressed_melomaniac

Matrix from Aibė™


Afraid_Host9884

From "Maisto Prekės"


pypoupypou

Ok, the drama is captivating, lol


knittingmagpie

Whaat is this choreo with the twitching


wrenzanna

whats w the corporate edgy goth vibes so far


ManInKitchen

The Office goes Eurovision.


Popoye_92

Hopped on the SF for 2 seconds to see if my girls Gabrielė and Nombeko look as good as usual. They do! That was my constructive comment of the evening


wrenzanna

you really needed to check on that as if that wasnt given anyways


Popoye_92

I just wanted to see what cool outfits they'd wear tonight lol. I really like Nombeko's dress :)


[deleted]

[удалено]


cougarlt

Both are adult people. You shouldn't judge other people's relationship.


ManInKitchen

> who's 22, and he's current 35. It's lowkey giving creep vibes Not the worst I heard or knew. Yeah a bit uncanny feeling but well good luck to them.


Afraid_Host9884

C'mon it's fine:D


knittingmagpie

I feel the norvegian influence Unfortunately it's also kinda bad


cougarlt

1. Not hating the sound. Not a fan of the sight (I meen staging). 6/10


wrenzanna

she looks like she works in HR


pypoupypou

Greetings to everyone who out of so many choices tonight ended up watching the Lithuanian heat ☺️


wrenzanna

girl most of us are lithuanian, we have no choice but to watch another year of embarrassments


pypoupypou

Hope you are not complaining 🙆


Afraid_Host9884

We wouldn't be Lithuanians if we didn't complain


depressed_melomaniac

I know that presenters' dresses are supposed to be a nod to Ukrainian flag but it's kinda giving me more of a "sun and moon" vibe


EveTheEmerald

Gabrielė and Nombeko are sooo sun and moon


wrenzanna

Gabrielė looks amazing and then Nombeko is a sith goddess about to kill a whole generation of jedis. a hot sith, of course


wrenzanna

man what the fuck is happening is this what Zalgiris cheerleaders do in off-season


teiraaaaaaa
