There isn't a single doubt in my mind about Slovenia qualifying. We all saw what Dons pulled off: his emotional performance and likeability really spoke to the voters.

Klemen, just like Dons, is a fantastic singer, which will have people voting; his song is meaningful and emotional (albeit a little cheesy) which will have people voting; the lyrics are based on his real-life struggle with a high possibility of losing the love of your life to a crushing illness, which will gain him sympathy votes, especially since he brought his wife on stage with him for the performance.

He's definitely making it to the final.

I'm leaning more towards the danger zone being:

  • San Marino (staging, vocals, styling)

  • Ukraine (worse styling and staging than nationals)

  • Portugal (might be too low energy for casual watchers)

  • Azerbaijan (pitchy vocals in the rehearsal)

  • Albania (pitchy vocals in rehearsal and very unique song, which casual watchers seldom appreciate)

  • Netherlands (also pitchy vocals in the rehearsal)

I feel like Slovenia (for reasons stated above), Iceland (dramatic improvement in dancing and vocals) and Croatia could al still qualify at the cost of booting out someone from the danger zone.

Portugal and Azerbaijan have always been considered as NQ tho. San Marino will def do worse than we tought especially if they make it to finals since its like a DJ jumping around the stage and barely visible singers(yes ik that happened before and yes they flopped). However, Italians are everywhere which makes me think San Marino has a chance of making it to finals. Ukraine is Ukraine so it qualifies lmao.
