I've put everything from Semi 1 and Semi 2 together. The blue ones are in semifinal 1, the orange ones in semifinal 2!

Just like in Iceland, I gave the semifinalists of semi 1 a blue colour. Semifinal 2 gets orange. It's clear that Semifinal 2 is my favourite in Latvia. After hearing these, I'm sure we're not going to Riga next year Whether they'll reach the final will depend on the competition from other countries!

12. Zoltán Fehér - Nincs Baj
13. Gyula Éliás - Mindhalálig Várni Rád
14. Tamás Vastag - Holnaptól
15. Ádám Szabó - Hadd Legyen Más
16. Szilvi Agárdi & Dénes Pál - Szíveddel Láss
17. Laura Cserpes - Élj Pont Úgy
18. Tibor Gyurcsik - Örök Harc
19. Flash Travel - Soha Ne Add Fel Az Álmaidat
20. András Kállay-Saunders - My Baby

22. Gergő Baricz - Húz
23. ByeAlex - Kedvesem
24. Krisztián Burai - Született Szívtörő
25. Plastikhead ft. Laci Gáspár - A Szeretet Él
26. Tamás Palcsó - Ezt Látnod Kell
27. Background - Neonzöld
28. Fatima Mohamed - Nem Baj
29. Odett - Ne Engedj El
30. Rami - Puzzle

In general a really good selection, where the first eight really impressed me. It's hard to judge though, as it's Hungary and it's likely that the winner will be translated to English. I have to add that Szilvi Agárdi and Dénes Pál really have the most ironic title here, Szíveddel Láss, which means something like See With Your Heart. And that when Szilvi is blind...
Anyway, good job Hungary, but your choice can go either way: total crap to totally brilliant.
