Iceland

Pretty genuine slow rock with plenty of hair and leather but just an album track really.

Belarus

Intense and seriously black. Clever theatrical effects. Will get plenty of E bloc votes but otherwise not a lot.

Cyprus

Husky. French 90s disco feel but unconvincing and gets boring after a while. No, forget this one.

Israel

Little old bloke trying badly to make a joke with some strange-looking colleagues. Push the off button and move on. Useless. Rhythm disappears completely. Chaotic.

FYR Macedonia

You always get the feeling that they care and come up with some solid stuff which is going to break through one year. More accurate notes than most of the others. Longer legs too. This could do very well and should be a top three contender. Good long shot bet.

Israel

Pretty typical EuroV fayre. Very shiny, very blonde and very long legs - again. Can't see it getting many votes.

Bulgaria

Lots of drums and anxious, almost Bangra beat stuff with some monkey noises thrown in for good measure. Unfortunately it loses the tune half way through.
