Eurovision 2022: Jury Show of the Grand Final!
The Jury Show of the Grand Final took place today. Twenty-five finalists performed their song once again in front of the experts and audience.
One of the hosts – Laura Pausini opened the show. Right after her performance we witnessed the famous flag parade where all twenty-five acts showed up with their flags when their country’s name was announced.
Here’s the review of all performances:
Czech Republic
Excellent vocals, confident performance. A very jury-friendly song, so juries should’ve definitely paid attention to this. In terms of results, this is probably gonna get a similar result to Cyprus 2021, could be 2-3 places higher or even lower.
Romania
WRS was very happy with his qualification and you definitely could see it, he was happier than ever. The crowd sang the song at the same time with him. Unfortunately, he is performing under statistically the worst slot, so I doubt this will be high enough tomorrow. Not sure juries liked this or not either.
Portugal
Juries should DEFINITELY like this one. So soothing, professional, just wow.
Finland
There were issues vocally as per usual, but it looks effective. Knowing juries pay attention to the vocals, I don’t think juries have ranked this one high, although many jurors could have received nostalgic vibes from the performance and from them as a very famous band.
Switzerland
Marius added some vocal changes and was much better this time. Should definitely come top 10 with the jury voting, even though the televise is gonna rank this one down.
France
Visually excellent, however vocally – lowkey not good. This one is definitely relying on the televoting.
Norway
Professional and slick performance from Norwegian wolves. On other hand, this should be loved by juries since they appreciate quality production, on other hand, this is not ‘jury bait’. Somewhere in the middle with jury voting and relying more on televoting.
Armenia
Rosa was a little bit nervous, but overall a strong vocal performance. Unlike Finland, France and maybe Norway this should be appreciated by professional juries.
Italy
Vocally on the same level as Finland. Atmospheric, the beginning looked fascinating. The outfits were completely different from the rehearsals. As a song, it’s jury bait, but I don’t think it’ll be liked by juries that much.
Spain
First winner vibes here. Nothing else to say.
Netherlands
A very emotional performance from S10, absolutely magnificent. First candidate for jury top 5 maybe?
Ukraine
Their best performance BY FAR. HAS to do well.
Germany
Very emotional, personally enjoyed it a lot. Impressive, but juries won’t go for a rap song.
Lithuania
Excellent! Juries have to have this in their top 10!
Azerbaijan
Everything was on point. Juries should like this one!
Belgium
Jeremy delivered a great performance, even though visually it’s kitschy.
Greece
The jury winner so far. Touching performance, the vocals were astounding! Has to come top 5 overall. Good job, Ellada!
Iceland
This one stands out a lot in the lineup. After so many vocal challenging songs in a row, this feels like something we exactly needed to hear. Probably won’t do that well.
Moldova
FUN!!! However, juries definitely won’t like this one!
Sweden
Professional and slick. Remember, how bookies underestimated Moldova before the rehearsals and how high Sweden was in the odds. Well, it was kind of boring to watch that performance after Moldova. Nevertheless, juries will go crazy about this one. Top 3 contender.
Australia
Sheldon delivered an amazing performance. Kind of worse vocally compared to his other performance but a lock top 10 with juries.
United Kingdom
An obvious jury winner.
Poland
Ochman’s one of the best vocalists of this year’s Eurovision. Only for his vocals alone he should be in the top 10!
Serbia
Winner vibes, but I don’t think juries will support it as much as tele.
Estonia
Everything is on point! Excellent closer.
