The six finalists are:

I have been playing these songs out! Although I loved Ramona Nerra’s “My heart is still winning,” it didn’t make the cut. However, I’m favoring Rykka’s “The last of our kind.” It has the most “Eurovision sound” in the lot. Stanley Miller comes in second. I can’t wait to see these acts perform!
At least one song is not in English
Stephanie Palazzo definitely had one of the strongest performances. Interestingly enough, 2 of the 6 are North American!
