Best ‘Eurovision Song Contest’ 2024 Performances From Semi-Finals 2, Ranked

The Big Picture COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT It's time for Eurovision Song Contest 2024 Semi-Final 2. The final 16 nations presented their songs in hopes of moving into Saturday's grand finals. With France, Italy, and Spain also presenting their entry, marking the first time the Big Five and host nation were included in the semi-finals.

18 Spain "Zorra" by Nebulossa; Big Five Spain's entry is a crowd favorite but "Zorra" is not as good as previous year's entries. Namely "SloMo" by Chanel. Alas, Spain kept the party going. Nebulossa is a big act, but lead vocalist Mery Bas seemed a bit uncomfortable on stage. The dancers accompanying the act were quite fit. Now, the song has improved since coming on the Eurovision scene this year, but it feels a bit stuck in time.

14 Denmark "Sand" by Saba; Eliminated We love representation and Saba represented Denmark as a queer, black woman. Saba's vocals started off a bit weak, but visually, the sand effect that kicked off "Sand" was quite captivating. The biggest issue for Denmark is that they relied heavily on the visual effects that, in comparison, they were not as bold as they could have been.

10 Greece "Zari" by Marina Satti; Qualified There has been quite an evolution in the world of technology since Eurovision first premiered 68 years ago. And Greece's performance utilized the most used technology in the world: social media. It was incredibly chintzy, but it was certainly unique. Marina Satti got a lot of heart reactions to her performance of "Zari." The song has a Greek beat which was accompanied by Greek-influenced choreography.

6 Malta "Loop" by Sarah Bonnici; Eliminated Sarah Bonnici and Malta kicked off the second night of semi-finals with all the energy you can desire. It was a great opening number. Sarah's voice was a bit thin and breathy, but unique in itself. The dancers were exceptional, and gave viewers around the world a treat when they took their shirts off and amplified the intensity of their dance, especially when they put on their blindfolds.
