As there has been some interest in a live thread such as the ones on r/eurovision, here is the live thread for the second semi-final of the Eurovision Song Contest 2024.
Sadly, I didn’t find any Lemmy equivalent to https://reddit-stream.com/. But as this community is still pretty small, I think refreshing the website once after each song should be okay.

This is my first time hearing Armenia’s entry and I am really digging it. I love folk music especially when modernized.

    Talking about German fans and showing a group with a Belgian flag. Nailed it!

    Why does it feel like every song I really love has performances that are a bit less than what I hoped for and every song I didn't like that much has so much better performances than I expected?! xD

    Honestly surprised at the lack of boos for Israel

    They have anti boo filters.

    But if there's enough booing it gets through. That it did means there was a decent amount.

    Also apparently in the practice round there was a bunch of booing.

    Edit: apparently EBU also added fake cheering during Israel's performance. So much for EBU being "non-political". It's one thing to remove disruptive sounds but another to artificially hype up a song.

    They made it to the final. Would've rather seen San Marino there. But maybe now Germany has a chance of not being last.

    Anyone know what the violin keytar is called? And those pants the guitarist was wearing are excellent.

    Spain has entered the chat. (Unsure if that is what you are referring to, I am at work and catching it between customers, plus I am in the states and likely seeing it behind EU)

    Well… I'm happy for the artists that they got through. While I was very happy with the first semi final, I'm rather mixed with this one. 3 of the 10 qualifiers are from my worst tier 😅

    I feel like I'm much more critical today than in the first semi finale as today, most of my favourites sing which I have high hopes for while at semi finale 1 many songs were only in my mid range and I got completely surprised by their high quality on stage :/

    I always enjoy browsing Xitter(formerly known as muskless) during eurovision, but all I'm seeing is posts about people calling hate on Israel antisemitic and people defending Israel's actions using whataboutism. I know I shouldn't expect anything else from xitter, but I'm still appalled. They defend annihilating an entire country for what a certain group in said country did.

    By giving voting money to a song contest, and bragging on social media, I guess.

    Very hyped for Angelina Mango - she's been sounding better and better in every preparty.

    Edit: I hope they change the sound mixing in the finale. Her voice is disappearing a bit too much in the drumbeat.

    What I love about Eurovision: there's always a weird, funny, silly entry from either the eastern countries or the northern ones, and on some years you get more than one. This is a good year for that. So thank you Netherlands, Finland, Estonia and all the others that make me laugh out loud.

    Just on song 11. And semi final 1 seems much higher quality. Hard to see anyone beating Croatia, but Spain and Malta both stand outs so far tonight so far

    These interchangeable long-haired women in skimpy outfits with the dance style of rhythmic pelvic floor gymnastics are a bit boring...

    I prefer fun performances and hope that these artists do well.
