Morten Thomassen looks today at SLOVENIA, one of the countries that do struggle to make the final. Would it be their turn this year? ESC Covers google translated it from Norwegian to English.
Our Slovenian friends still haven’t managed to qualify for the final this decade and it would have been nice if they finally got a place in the final, wouldn’t it?
Because since the semi-finals were introduced, this country has only qualified 6 times for the final, so we are talking about a country that is struggling a bit in this area.
Like last year, they are presenting a band that is a bit older than last year’s band, it’s called Joker Out and they will sing the song “Carpe Diem”.
Will they then grab one of the final places in the second semi-final is the obvious question and I actually think they can do it.
A bit of light-hearted happy rock should have a chance to be liked on a Thursday night, even if they possibly make it a bit difficult for themselves to sing in Slovenian.
But, we fans want songs performed in the national language more than welcome and for that reason alone they should perhaps have a nice Thursday night in Liverpool and get on the final bus.
