Dancing on the Edge of Time

Finally getting in the top half of this year's Eurovision song set, there are both underrated and overrated songs in this mix.

20. FYR Macedonia
Tijana - "To the Sky"
Reaction: A pop song with the slightest hint of rock, this is very very middle of the pack. Fun but not too fun, hints of catchiness. Nothing extremely terrible nor catchy about it.
Best Part: "Held together by the hand of life"
Rating: 3/5

19. Portugal
Suzy - "Quero Ser Tua"
Reaction: This song is very underrated. It's a fun summery beach party song. It's not particularly original, but it's insanely catchy and easy to listen to in a carefree mood.
Best Part: UAUAUÉ
Rating: 3/5

18. United Kingdom
Molly - "Children of the Universe"
Reaction: In that tradition of British Eurovision entries with social messages that aren't really developed, this one fits right in. The "power to the people" refrain recalls "Power to All Our Friends." Well, this music never ends. The Icelandic song has a more developed message, but this, in all its vagueness, is a well developed pop song performed by a potential modern-day siren.
Best Part: "Something's stirring in the silence/And it reeks of passive violence"
Rating: 3/5

17. Lithuania
Vilija Matačiūnaitė - "Attention"
Reaction: Another underrated song. This is both avant-garde and super catchy. Its chorus appears to me at random moments more than any other song here. And who can argue with its recipe for a relationship (attention + care = love)?
Best Part: Chorus
Rating: 3/5

16. Romania
Paula Seling & Ovi - "Miracle)
Reaction: Not really a miracle, just an above average dance song. What really elevates this is their goofy yet charming chemistry (no, really). The way they perform "All those things I see/I think I see them too" is so awkward but oddly believable. Maybe not as memorable as "Playing With Fire" but less abrasive.
Best Part: Long held "ooooooh" before final chorus
Rating: 3/5
