🇦🇱 If your dancers are not there on time, just hatch some live on stage and you'll be safe! But they may not know how to walk right away, and may just stay on the floor.

🇦🇱 Just like Aris yesterday, quite a lot of turning around the artists with a steadycam, but only at the beginning (they end up leaving in full view of the broadcasting camera...).
Not much movements on stage, except the moment they get closer to eachother. Still slaps.

🇦🇱 That was a very-well staged performance from Endri, despite average vocals.
He looks like an angel in the middle of his clouds, surrounded by a court of dancers. Very good plays with the light too.
Also, am I the only one who thinks he looks like The Ludwig from Latvia?

🇦🇱 Time for the emotional monologue, Salsano Rrapi version.
Can you smell the flowers of Liguria? This is just a big teaser for Sanremo.

🇦🇱 Salsano Rrapi has just been given a... retractable ladder? Perhaps that's how he intends to fly Arilena to the moon. 🌙

🇦🇱 After Angelina Mango, it's time for some Marco Mengoni references, with "Vite".
Although a trio of long-haired women from the Balkans scream more like Hurricane!

🇦🇱 This ("Pa pretendime" by Kamela Islamaj) was way cooler than I expected! Love the mad little choreography with the male dancer, the Mango look, and the whole vibe in general.
That's how you elevate an entry, my friends!

🇦🇱 This was Vedat Ademi, with "Kur Fjala Mbaron", and the 94th electric guitar solo of the Festivali so far.
Not the most entertaining one, but he is not helped by these small technical issues on the microphone.

🇦🇱 The hosts are reacting to meme version of online articles, from what I understand.
I'd love that in Eurovision: can you imagine Hazel or Petra making fun of an fan media like us? It's like a blessing from the Goddesses!

🇦🇱 This was Malvina Likaj with "Përtej shpirtit". Vocally more impactful than most of what we've heard so far, and one of the better songs of the semi, but it still feels like this entire evening is one level under yesterday's show.

A second performance cut short. Not the most interesting one, but still, not cool!

🇦🇱 "Horizont" is basically a James Bond theme!
Love id, vocally good, but it's got more impact from the orchestra than from the melody.
And then we just skipped to the hosts mid-song. COME ON, RTSH!

I did think we were almost going too fast for FiK: this is how they regulate the rythm of the evening, with technical issues.

🇦🇱 “Valle mbi hi” is like a dark prayer full of incantations to summon the demons of the Balkans! And in the end, they're crowned with a plant.
Not the best vocally but it was never meant to be. I enjoyed it and it's a nice change after the opener.

🇦🇱 Our hosts, Salsano Rrapi and Arilena Ara arrive, once again, on the notes of "Zjerm". Arilena's dress is so tight that she needs Salsano to carry her.
Now, there was another solution: the lift you took to go up the stairs you then wanted to go down from!
