And the qualifiers were announced!

Azerbaijan's very Turkic ethno entry was presented as the first qualifier of the night. Norway's eurodance song "Lookie Lookie" was announced as the next one, but this time it was not received warmly. Spain was next, and it was commented that Spain keeps on with its lucky strike. The Netherlands was announced next, received with a lot of excitement from the audience.

Romania was announced next, and this time, it was commented that the song truly deserved to be in the final. Finland was next, and it was one of the surprise of the nights... the rock song wasn't expected to fare well. Monaco was up, and the Armenian delegation received this with lots of energy... Although they received with even more energy the announcement of the United Kingdom as the eighth qualifier.

From the 12 remaining countries, Denmark was announced as the second-to-last qualifier, and it was annalised that Scandinavia altogether was in the final already. The last qualifier was announced after a large number of seconds, to keep with the thrill and expectation, and at the end, the last qualifier was Armenia!!!!

The running order was announced a few minutes later, and the second-chance poll was opened. 16 hours later, it was revealed that Latvia had won this poll. And Latvia therefore advanced to the final.
