Last Sunday, in the first semi-final of the Ukrainian national selection for the 2011 Eurovision Song Contest, the first five finalists were picked by the decision of an expert jury. Tonight, eight more semi-finalists got their chance, and again, five out of them got the ticket for the final, to be held in Kyiv in February next year. This is the line-up of today's show (in order of appearance, qualifiers in bold):
Mika Newton - Angel
Ivan Berezovskiy - Ave Maria
Shanis - Tsvetok
Zaklyopki - Superhero
Alyona Korneeva - Why Did I Say Goodbye
Christina Kim - Victim Of My Love
Denis Povaliy - Aces High
Anastasia Prikhodko - Action
Those who are not among the qualifiers picked by the jury still have a chance to go to the final by the decision of the TV public, who can cast their votes by SMS. The third and last semi-final will be held next Sunday, on December 19th.
