Eurovision 2019 Song Ranking Part 2

35. Ireland

Sarah McTernan - "22"

Maybe it's the music video by the water or the guitars in the chorus, but this feels way sunnier and breezier than you'd expect from Ireland. A cute pop song with a 50s-by-way-of-90s feel.

34. Belarus

ZENA - "Like It"

There's something weirdly dated about this. If Belarus had replaced some of their entries from the early 2010's this would have been amazing. But in 2019 having a beat isn't enough and it's just repetitive.

33. Georgia

Oto Nemsadze - "Keep On Going"

Iriao goes to Hell! I love the intensity and power of this rock ballad. The only complaint is that it takes a little too long to get going.

32. San Marino

Serhat - "Say Na Na Na"

Serhat is back with another disco, well, banger might not be the right word for it. After "I Didn't Know" the internet expected something equally iconic, which I'm not sure this does. While a personal pep talk from Serhat, with an invitation to call him for more cheering up, is appealing, the chorus is just missing something. Not that everything has to have a deep lyric, but maybe a little more than "na na na".

31. Belgium

Eliot - "Wake Up"

This wants to be vaguelly rallying for youth but it just looks and sounds like it would be used in some ad, like for clothing or a website. The verses have some cool instrumentation.
