First postcard, from VAEB, who receive a letter And we are transported to a sort of circus, where they meet with performers and play with a ball of light. The stage ready is up, and we’re in for the first performance.
The boys take their sunglasses early, before the first chorus (not including the introduction one), when the atmosphere turns to red, before turning to blue again for the actual chorus.
The boat is back, all white and painted, with the very efficient choreo used in Söngvakeppnin.
There is some augmented reality, with virtual, “LEGO-like” octopusses being thrown at the boys as they push theem back at the screen. There’s also a nice shot in the second pre-chorus, on them above a boat displayed on the LED floor, with no AR this time from what we saw.
The performance ends with a big VÆB graphic on the backscreen.

Second postcard: the artists are actually filmed receiving a postcard, and the camera zooms on it before being teleported to Switzerland. Justyna visits a Library, then sort of rakes snow on a mountain?
The performance then starts, with Justyna already on the ground, so she does not descend on the floor at the beginning. She is barely singing the verses but does belt out the chorus parts. She is clearly saving her voice for the more important performances.
She does grab the ropes from the ceiling to be elevated a few meters above the floor, with the dragon graphics flying behind her and on the LED Floor. The dragon is back when she’s down again, and sets the stage and the LED screens on fire. The press corps is going WILD!

Klemen also goes to a snowy mountain in his postcard, to play some curling. The set-up for the performance take a bit more time so we are served with audience shots before it begins.
The starry pattern on the frame and back LED screen is very efficient. Behind Klemen, some footage of his wife, and sometimes them together.
After the first chorus, a dancer puts a “harness” that’s not visible on camera, and as the second chorus begins, the famous upside down moment is bacj, with the dancers leaving Klemen floating in the air.
During the bridge (“I admire your power…”), the light bars descend in a slope-confirguration, like half a roof above him, in a very beautiful moment. Klemen’s wife arrives for the last chorus, all dressed in white, as the last shot show them face to face, and kissing after the end of the song.
Denk dat dit wel eens kan kwalificeren!

For his postcard, Tommy Cash is doing some roller, although he’s barely doing anything himself and is more the sort of referee or instructor for local girls doing roller.
The performance begins with a red curtain on the screen, which opens to show the graphics of the “Winners Café” from outside. The café then “opens up” and we see Inside. For the second chorus, eveything floats in the café, and then the screen shows the “Tommy cash” plane flapping his wings like a bird.
There is a fake stage invasion by a Tommy fangirl: Tommy looks surprised at first, then he dances with her.
There’s also quite a few nice moments with the security guard dancers, including one when they form a throne for hims to sit on.
“Coffee for everybody!” he shouts at the end.

We get the now mandatory explanation about the automatic qualilfiers, before Spain’s postcard. Melody meets a woman in Lucerne, and cooks some chocolate with her.
The performance begins with Mellody in her black dress with a long train, in front of the white screen, with her dancers hidden under the train.
She takes off her hat and train, and a set of curtains fall in front of her to let her take off the dress and then appear in her stunning white, sparkly outfit we saw in the pictures. As she perfoms the middle section of the song, a platform is set behind the curtains, with two sets of stairs on the side. The curtains are raised for the final section, which happens on the top of the platform.
She is giving us the best vocals and the arena is vibing, even if it’s mostly empty!

Weinig fans aanwezig vandaag, net op het moment dat het er op papier meer toe doet dan vroeger?quote:Op maandag 12 mei 2025 16:06 schreef DevK het volgende:

Wat meninkjes van Aussievision
Iceland 🇮🇸 SUPER energetic performance and great opener. The LEDs looks great and are aquatic themed. Vocals do get a little impacted by the performance.
Poland 🇵🇱 WOW GOOSEBUMPS!! Great LEDs, it’s OTT but it works. Her presence comes through the screen and in the stadium. Lots of pyros, movement around stage top notch. Huge reception with press. Just fantastic! ~ Dale
Slovenia 🇸🇮 beautiful starscape backdrop, uses some family video/pics as well. Those lights from 30 sec clip only come in at the end. Vocally not as strong as we’ve heard before. I feel it would need to improve a lot by tomorrow to be a chance.
Estonia 🇪🇪 that winners cafe LED opens up so it appears like they are inside. The plane LED then takes him to ‘Tommywood’ with an explosion of coffee bean LEDs. Dancers all the same as expected. Vocals are Tommy vocals.
Spain 🇪🇸 She has a fantastic dress reveal involving her dancers, LED floor use is great, she uses a lot of the catwalk while there is a curtain behind her covering that big plinth from the 30 secs clip. Her big note is SO powerful live, like WOW!
Ukraine 🇺🇦 They sound SO good. The 30sec clip pretty much shows you what the full performance will be. There is a lovely use of the lighting rigs at the ends almost like bird wings.

Ziferblat goes to Basel in their postcard, and also cook some meal with locals.
The performance begins with the high note of the beginning, on the main stage, then we switch to the frame stage where Daniel starts in front of a pilllar, and walks quickly to the main stage to join the backing vocalists. There are some shots on them when they perform the high notes, as they move their arms like birds.
We have some fireworks during the middle-eight, before Daniel starts again from the back of the main stage, and runs to the front for the last chorus, ending up on the walkway.
The blurry, bloom effect is back, although it looks less strong than in the footage we were shown.

De vraag is uiteraard even wat de hobby’s van een Go-Jo of Erika zijn.

NAJAAA
The sausage is very visible at the start. More than in melfest. For the rest the dancing routine and staging seems to be very similar. Notable are the animals in the back vibing in the forest
There is 2 female and 1 male backing dancers. The upgrade is fire being spewed out from the sauna pit in the bridge towards the finak chorus. For this they leave the Sauna and get to the front stage to do their ending dance! Nicely done, similar to melfest with a few upgrades!
//
KAJ are in Maggllingen for their postcard, where they partake in some sort of wrestling sport.
The current favourite is now performing! Not much has changed, except that there are only three dancers now. When they are at the same floor level, they are behind KAJ but slightly more on the right, like in staggered rows.
There are a lot of pyros for the bridge, and the laser show at the end is impressive. This remains a strong contender, and the press is in enthusiastic applause by the end!

The NAPA boys are tasting some wines in a cellar in Lavaux for their postcard.
The camera moves are very sow for the beginning of the song, with the camera unzooming as Guilherme slowly walks from the back of the stage to the front of the main one. He does not walk on the walkway before the end of the first chorus, accompanied by his guitarist an bassist.
The colours on the screen alternate between blue and pastel orange, with the final section having orange lights and pastel colours over a blue background. There’s some beautiful lightning at the end, and the press is also very enthusiastic about it. Qualification remains in doubt, though.
