My impressions of each song is based on whether they deserved to qualify or not.
SF1: A nice and fun song. Deserves to qualify.
A unique banger with Malay flavor. Deserves the qualification.
Another awesome banger! Also deserves the qualification.
Another good song worthy of being in the final. Great duet.
Thank you for voting me into another qualification! Relieved Clinton isn't a semis flop on his first go at NNMC.
So good! Happy this is in the final.
Another good song! Slow, chill, but captivating all at the same time. Congratulations!
Rontti, I'm very happy for your first qualification with India. The Bollywood banger is final-worthy.
Bananarama qualifying in 2022 is camp. I live.

Left a lot to be desired tbh.
This era of Lorde is not suited for competitive settings like online song contests.
Kinda interesting, but it's not one of the standouts for me.
I thought this had some promise, but unfortunately, it got drowned out.
Thought this could've surprise qualified, but not disappointed it NQ'd.
Kinda fun, but also got lost in the field.
Honestly thought this would qualify, but evidently people are currently tired of Luca.
Another song I thought could've qualified. Thought the indie sound would appeal to enough users in general.
Is this considered homophobia?
Should've qualified imo. It's fun and energetic.
The drop is nice, but as an overall song, it does not leave a big impact.
SF2: So fun! So deserving of the final.
Agree on the qualification. It's cool.
It's nice. I like it. Final-worthy for sure.
I just know several who are gonna riot for this qualifying, but it's good nonetheless. I don't mind it being in the final.
If this didn't qualify, I would be livid. So excited to see this advance.
This is lo-fi done right for NNMC. The melody carries this song, enough to be deserving of the final.
It's fun. Deserves a spot in the final.
Not bad I think. I'm curious how this will fare in the final since I'm lukewarm towards this.
Banger. Banger. Banger. A fast-paced electronic track with an engaging beat. I'm happy this is in the final.

It's alright. Nothing outstanding about it.
This is what you get for not giving me a timeslot even though I was lenient this time. At first, I thought this song was incredible, but I hear the whole track and it starts to fall flat.
It's nice, but it's too much like background music for me to fully appreciate a song contest entry.
I appreciate the unique Turkmen flavor, but this time, it lacked a strong melody.
Aww... I thought this should've qualified.
Like Finland, it's fun, energetic, and nicely produced.
It sounds promising, but it's not fully realized.
Nice song, but there's a way to be a quieter song and still be a standout (see Afghanistan). Belgium didn't really pull it off for me. Too quiet.
Vuelta supremacy! This NQ proves it.
Those reggaeton beats did not help.
Ultimately flat. We've all seen that Sweden is more capable than this...
The epitome of mid. It failed to standout in so many ways.
SF3: Mongolia continues to surprise me with the kinds of songs I hear from this country. I expected it to generally be more Central Asian-esque, but this song is an example of how well Mongolia is constantly thriving with more Western-inspired sounds. Congrats on qualifying.
The rap alone is worthy of a spot in the final. This is good!
Nice to see Talos back, and with a nice song, too. Will it be as good as Kansas? We'll see.
This is incredible! I'm so so happy this is in the final.
Another final-worthy banger! I'm excited to see it in the final as well.
.....
Distinctly Ukrainian, yet the quality is not compromised. Great vocals, beats, everything. Congrats on qualifying.
Love the sass. Definitely a final-worthy song.
Too memorable to be ignored. Nice to see it qualify.

So bummed! This is so aggressively good. I
felt their power. Robbed of a place in the final.
Forgettable.
At first, I thought I was going to enjoy this since it was so high energy, but it never gained replay value for me.
This song could've qualified. I enjoyed the overall sound and vibe.
Love her vocals, but vocals aren't everything in a song contest.
So corny.
This was a clear non-qualifier.
RV or no RV, that wasn't gonna save that disappointing drop.
I'm so sad.
Like South Korea, I
felt the power. Should've qualified.
I appreciate the unique sound, but it's too niche within its region and it's not accessible enough for many people.
Although this is one of the club tracks, it fell off the wayside and failed to stand out.
