Five acts took the stage in order to persuade the televoters and to take the three tickets for the grand final of the Icelandic song contest.

  1. Stebbi Jak – “Set Me Free”/“Freslið Mitt”
  2. Birgo – “Stormchaser”/“Ég Flýg Í Storminn”

  4. Bia – “Northern Lights”/ “Norðrljós”
  5. Væb – “Róa”

All the songs are going to be performed in their icleandic versions for the semi-finals phase.

The first act that took the stage was Stebbi Jak with the song “Freslið Mitt”. Stebbi serves his wild rock vibes. Red, yellow, and orange colours all over the stage, combined perfectly with fire effects. Vocally he was really good. A very powerful beginning for this year’s Söngvakeppnin.

The second act that got to perform was Birgo with the song “Ég Flýg Í Storminn”. It’s one of the favourites to get the ticket for the final according to the odds. She is standing on a prop that has the shape of a rock. The main elements on the stage are the smoke and the clouds, combined with blue and white colours. There is also snow effect. Vocally she was very good as well.

Next in line was Ágúst with the song “Eins Og Þú”. He is the second favourite to get the ticket for the final according to the odds. A mainstream pop song, with a quite pleasant atmosphere on the stage. Ágúst moves all around the arena, from backstage, to the stage, to the green room and then back on stage.

Second to last entry was Bia with the song “Norðrljós”. She is stadning on a prop that has the shape of stairs, behind her there are led lights in the shape of the crescent that create the illusion she is floating on a starry night sky. Then the northern lights become the main theme of her performance.

The last entry of this semi-final was the duo Væb with the song “Róa”. They are the big favourite of tonight’s show. They are dressed in grey metalic uniforms and have put black sunglasses on. A very powerful performance, combined with the fast exchange of blue and white lights and the use of some pyro effects. A very big applause from the audience.

With the completion of the competitve part, the lines opened for the televoters to cast their votes.

The three acts that qualified for the final of Söngvakeppnin 2025 are as per below:

  1. Væb – “Róa”

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Vidbir 2025, has just concluded, with Ziferblat and “Bird of Pray” winning the contest and as follows Ukraine’s representation at Eurovision Song Contest 2025 in Basel. The Ukrainian national final was helmed by Timur Miroshnychenko (co-host of Eurovision 2017 in Kyiv and Ukraine’s commentator since 2007), Masha Efrosinina (host of Eurovision 2005 ) and stand-up comedian Vasyl Baidak. Meanwhile, the backstage and pre-show for Ukraine’s National Selection for Eurovision 2025 was once again hosted by Anna Tulyeva, presenter of the Eurovision Ukraine video blog.

The show opened with an all star performance.  Nine Ukrainian Eurovision superstars, Jamala (Eurovision 2016 winner), MELOVIN (Eurovision 2018 representative with “Under the Ladder.”), Katerina Pavlenko (Eurovision 2021 representative as part of Go_A with “Shum.”), TVORCHI (Eurovision 2023 representative), Jerry Heil–alyona alyona (Eurovision representatives in 2024), Ruslana (Eurovision 2004 winner), Timofiy Muzichuk (Eurovision 2022 winner as part of Kalush Orchestra) and Tina Karol (Eurovision 2006 representative) performed a special version of  “Smile for me“, by Nazariy Yaremchuk, a music classic from Ukrainian music.

The participants

In the Vidbir 2025, the ten artists presented their proposals for Eurovision 2025 in the following order:

  1. Vlad Sheryf – “Wind of Change”
  2. Abiye – “Dim”
  3. Molodi – “My Sea”
  4. Future Culture – “Waste My Time”
  5. Masha Kondratenko – “No Time To Cry”
  6. Khayat – “Honor”
  7. FIÏNKA – “Kultura”
  8. Krylata – “Stay True”
  9. Ziferblat – “Bird of Pray”
  10. DK Enerhetyk – “Sil’”

The competitive part

Vlad Sheryf – “Wind of Change”

First to open the show is Vlad Sheryf with a power ballad. The LED screen show scenes with Venetian aesthetics in blue and rose gold colours, alternating with images of whirlwinds and thunderbolts. Wearing an outfit in pastel hues and a lighted flower on his chest, he knows how to move around the stage, but his vocal performance seems a little weak.

Abiye – “Dim”

It’s Abiye’s turn to take to the stage and compete to represent Ukraine at Eurovision. Accompanied by five dancers, she performs a contemporary choreography inside an inclined white structure while being bathed in red and purple colours. Wearing a red and white outfit with traditional elements she appears very vocally stable and excites the audience with her powerful message.

Molodi – “My Sea”

On the stage comes the duet Molodi consisting of singer Kiril Rogovyi and drummer Ivan Stepanishchev. They are accompanied by 4 people on vocals and the LEDs alternate between black and white patterns and blue images of the sea. They are dressed in black ensembles with silver and leather detailing, and they perform their song with so much energy that they carry the pulse to the audience.

Future Culture – “Waste My Time”

Next on stage are Future Culture with a fun participation. The LED screen shows a colourful city, while they wear white clothes and present a performance full of energy, albeit vocally they have a lot of issues. At the bridge of the song they come to the front of the stage, which is filled with bubbles which makes the crowd go crazy.

Masha Kondratenko – “No Time To Cry”

It’s time for Masha Kondratenko, one of the biggest favourites to take the stage at Vidbir 2025. The performance begins with the singer performing flawlessly against a dark background, surrounded by five women standing on columns with family images projected on their backs. In the second half, Masha and the three dancers come to the front of the now red lit stage, while the other two women the others accompany the singer on vocals.

Khayat – “Honor”

Vidbir’s 2020 runner-up, Khayat is ready to take the stage. Wearing a black outfit with gold details and a hood, he starts his performance against a dark background, while a figure playing the harp is visible in the LED screen. During the second verse, four dancers enter the smoke-filled stage to accompany the singer with an impressive choreography, while a temple is now depicted on the screen. The whole performance is elevated with golden lights and Khayat’s amazing vocals.

FIÏNKA – “Kultura”

Next on stage was FIÏNKA, which was this year’s wildcard for the Ukrainian National Final. She is accompanied by four dancers performing a modern choreography, with the singer giving a great performance that gets the audience going. The streetstyle aesthetic in the LED screen and the colourful outfits display elements inspired by the Ukrainian tradition in a way that makes the performance stand out from the others.

Krylata – “Stay True”

It’s Krylata’s turn to take the stage. Dressed in a black sparkling dress she performs a flawless performance in a white and black fondue. She is accompanied by a duo of dancers dressed in white, that later change into black. At the end of the performance an aerial dancer appears on the back of the stagethe, which is filled with colorful lights and silver dust, offering a magical result.

Ziferblat – “Bird of Pray”

Another favourite of this year’s Vidbir, Ziferblat, who came in second place in last year’s national final appear on stage. Dressed in purple and blue colours and accompanied by three girls on vocals they show a very beautiful and flawless performance. The sky-toned LED screen blends perfectly with the meadow-like setting, which matches the song’s light mood.

DK Enerhetyk – “Sil’”

The final contestants of this evening are DK Enerhetyk. The show starts with a female dancer dressed in white with a camera in her hands, dancing rhythmically. The band stands on colorful wires while grey and blue motifs and icons dominate the LED screen. Vocally they are not as dynamic as they could be and the whole performance is quite monotonous and subdued.

The results

The final result will be decided 50% by the preference of Ukrainian viewers and 50% by the preference of the jury consisting of Sergey Tancinets, Kateryna Pavlenko and Jamala.

The jury voted:

  1. Khayat – 10 points

San Marino: Serafín Zubiri withdraws from Eurovision selection due to scheduling conflict

/0 Comments/in , , , /by

San Marino has a history of featuring Spanish artists in its national selection, most notably with Megara winning Una Voce Per San Marino in 2024 and going on to represent the country in Malmö, where they finished 14th in the second semi-final with “11:11”. However, in 2025, Spanish singer Serafín Zubiri will not be following in their footsteps.

Zubiri, who previously represented Spain in Eurovision in 1992 and 2000, was originally set to compete in the fifth semi-final of Una Voce Per San Marino on February 15. However, a scheduling conflict with a concert in Spain on the same date forced him to reconsider his participation.

The singer requested to be moved to a different semi-final, but San Marino RTV declined the request. Left with no alternative, Zubiri chose to withdraw from the competition. Despite his exit, the song he planned to present will still be released in the near future.

Malta: The results of the Second Semi-Final of MESC 2025!

/0 Comments/in , , /by

The Second Semi-Final of MESC 2025, held at the Malta Fairs and Conventions Centre in Valletta, has just concluded, with eight artists punching their ticket to the Grand Final on 8 February, when we will find out who Malta’s next Eurovision representative will be. The Malta Eurovision Song Contest 2025 presentation was helmed by Pauline Agius, Davide Tucci and Valentina Rossi, with Emmelie de Forest (Eurovision 2013 winner), Claudia Faniello (Malta’s representative at Eurovision 2017), Richard Edwards (Malta’s representative at Eurovision 2014 as member of Firelight) and Janvil (Malta Song For Europe 2005 contestant) being the guests of the show.

The participants

In the second semi-final, the remaining twelve artists presented their proposals for Eurovision 2025 in the following order:

  1. Kelsey Bellante – “365“
  2. Dario Bezzina ft. Żeppi l-Muni – “Għażliet“
  3. Kelsy Attard – “Love Me Loud“
  4. Miriana Conte – “Kant“
  5. The Alchemists – “Rubble & Stone“
  6. Martina Borg – “Yo Listen“
  7. Nathan – “Concrete“
  8. Kurt Anthony – “Miegħek Biss“
  9. Kantera – “LalaRataTakeke LalaRataKabum“
  10. Krista Šujak – “Unheard“
  11. Stefan Galea – “Lablab (Talk Talk)“
  12. Miguel Bonello – “Breaking the Cycle“

The competitive part

Kelsey Bellante – “365“

Kelsey is the first to open the show for tonight’s show with a bop. The stage is bathed in white lights, and the whole look can be described as simple but beautiful. Wearing a sparkling outfit and accompanied by four dancers, she gives an incredible performance and gets the crowd going.

Dario Bezzina ft. Żeppi l-Muni – “Għażliet“

It’s the turn of the duo Dario and Żeppi to take to the stage. Yellow lights bathe the singers, while at the same time the LEDs are shades and patterns of sand. Vocally they are quite solid and offer a moving performance. At the end, fireworks also appear from the roof of the stadium.

Kelsy Attard – “Love Me Loud“

Next up to claim one of the eight tickets is Kelsy, with a powerful ballad. The stage is filled with red and black colours, while flames and smoke appear on the LEDs. Dressed in a black dress, she performs her song quite well, but it is not clear if it will be enough to get her through to Saturday’s Final.

Miriana Conte – “Kant“

It’s time for one of the favorites, Miriana, to step on stage. She wears a green dress and is accompanied by 5 dancers, also dressed in green , while the LEDs show a mountainous landscape in purple. At one point, the singer’s dress is removed to reveal a leopard print ensemble and she presents a dynamic vocal and dance performance.

The Alchemists – “Rubble & Stone“

“The Alchemists” take to the stage, with the audience cheering before they even start performing. The stage is bathed in lights, hot LED colours, fireworks and smoke and the band seem to be enjoying their performance. Vocally they are very good and all indications are that they won’t struggle to win one of the eight tickets.

Martina Borg – “Yo Listen“

It’s Martina’s turn to take the stage and perform her song. She is accompanied by four dancers dressed in black, while she wears a yellow jacket, on the stage full of lights and blue colours. Vocally she appears very steady and manages to convey the pulse to the audience.

Nathan – “Concrete“

Nathan appears on stage on a vertical circular structure. LEDs and lights add warm tones to the performance. Towards the end, vapors appear along with fireworks, making the performance even more impressive. Vocally while there was some instability at the beginning, the singer seems more confident as he enjoys his time on stage.

Kurt Anthony – “Miegħek Biss“

Next up is Kurt to present an emotional ballad. He first appears alone on stage and then five other women appear on vocals to enhance his already excellent performance. Space and star images appear on the LEDs, providing an atmospheric performance that thrills the audience.

Kantera – “LalaRataTakeke LalaRataKabum“

Kantera take the stage with a traditional, fun performance and the audience is already thrilled with the announcement of their name. The LEDs are dominated by traditional landscapes and motifs, while they themselves are dressed in traditional costumes. Surrounded by plants, they deliver a performance full of energy, proving that they already hold one of the tickets for the Final.

Krista Šujak – “Unheard“

Krista’s turn to set foot on the stage, which alternates between warm and cool tones. She knows how to fill the stage and show off her vocal abilities, taking advantage of the changes in lighting and LEDs and manages to get the audience’s applause.

Stefan Galea – “Lablab (Talk Talk)“

Stefan is on stage with a very unique song, which blows the audience away. He is accompanied by four dancers, who hold two screens in their hands and with a modern aesthetic he performs his song with a lot of energy. Based on the reaction of the audience, his qualification is a given.

Miguel Bonello – “Breaking the Cycle“

The last contestant is Miguel, who sings a dark ballad. He is accompanied by four dancers and his choreography combined with the dramatic and contemporary aesthetic of his performance captivates the audience. He has some vocal instabilities, that will probably deny him a place in the MESC 2025 Final.

The results

The MESC 2025 system foresees two semi-finals, with 12 songs respectively. Eight artists from each semi-final will qualify for the MESC Grand Final.

The winner of MESC 2025 and therefore the country’s representative at Eurovision 2025 will be decided 50% by a jury and the remaining 50% by televote, i.e. telephone calls and SMS.

The eight artists who are through to Saturday’s final to compete for the representation of Malta in this year’s Eurovision are:

  1. Martina Borg – “Yo Listen“
  2. Nathan – “Concrete“
  3. Kantera – “LalaRataTakeke LalaRataKabum“
  4. The Alchemists – “Rubble & Stone“
  5. Miriana Conte – “Kant“
  6. Krista Šujak – “Unheard“
  7. Dario Bezzina ft. Żeppi l-Muni – “Għażliet“
  8. Stefan Galea – “Lablab (Talk Talk)“

With the addition of the remaining eight candidates, the final 16 of the MESC 2025 Grand Final is formed as follows:

  1. Raquela – “Silenced“
  2. Adria Twins – “Qalb ma’ Qalb“

MESC 2025 Schedule

Second Semi-Final: February 6
Grand Final: February 8

Now all eyes are on the Grand Final, which will take place on Saturday February 8, to find out which contestant will be flying the Maltese flag at the 69th Eurovision Song Contest.

Last year, the Island of the Knights was represented by Sarah Bonnici and “Loop“, but failed to qualify to the Grand final. Will Malta manage to break the streak of three consecutive eliminations this year?

  • Bambie Thug (Ireland’s representative at Eurovision 2024)
  • Donal Skehan (former singer, critic, cook, Eurosong 2008 participant)
  • Laura Fox (RTÉ 2fm presenter)
  • Arthur Gourounlian (dancer, choreographer, dancer in the Turkish Eurovision 2006 entry)

RTÉ also announced that three former Eurovision winners will perform during the show. Linda Martin (Eurovision winner 1992), Niamh Kavanagh (Eurovision winner 1993) and Eimear Quinn (Eurovision winner 1996) will perform a special version of “Tattoo“, the winning entry for Eurovision 2023.

Bambie Thug was crowned winner of last year’s country selection and represented Ireland in Malmö with “Doomsday Blue”, where they not only managed to bring the country back to the Grand Final, but also finished sixth in the leaderboard.
