This is not as strong a semi-final. There were six obvious ones to me and then seven more competing for four places.

But here it is: Norway, Romania, Russia, Moldova, Australia, Poland, Malta, Hungary, Sweden and Ukraine.

If you can, please vote for Russia. She’s being exploited, unfairly so. And there’s a dearth of excellence in tonight’s show so you won’t be depriving anyone of high quality a spot in doing so.
