Review of 2019 Eurovision Semi-Final No. 2

It's 2019 Eurovision Semi-Final No. 2 tonight. We have been able to avoid all spoilers so we do not know anything about tonight's competitors. I prefer it that way.

(I noticed yesterday when viewing the post on a phone that my flags don't come through on the phone, so tonight I'll mention how many flags I have awarded to each as well as using the flag emojis.)

Ahh, Madonna is going to be at the Final. That's interesting.
