     I've heard our entry once, and my initial reaction at the time is that it was steaming dog shit. As is tradition. #Eurovision

     I don't know what I think of Armenia's entry. On the surface it's got a good vibe, but it just doesn't really seem to do anything interesting. #Eurovision

     Under other circumstances I'd very much enjoy Lithuania's entry. The vocal sounds lifeless here, so I might crank it up on Apple Music through The Good Headphones. #Eurovision
