Eurovision 2022 - Semi-Final 2 - 6. Malta...It Is What It Is

Qualifying Record: 8/15 (9/15 if 50/50 is applied in 14'-15')

Qualifying Record 50/50 era: 4/7 (5/7 see above)

Running Order Record 50/50 era: 8/14

Current Country Streak: 2 Q

Current Running Order Streak: 3 NQ



There are three certainties in life: Death, taxes and Malta doing exceedingly well with Juries! Or doing really bad with Televoting! Depends on you seeing the glass half full or half empty.

The entire process was a mess this year regarding the national final. Emma Muscat won with a different song, only to change it a few days before the submission deadline.

'I Am What I Am' is not the definition of a masterpiece, but taking in consideration Malta's dynamics with Juries, it does stand a chance.


Will qualify because...

Juries, Juries, Juries...


Will not qualify because...

It could have been a song finishing 12th-15th in Eurovision 1996...

Outdated and very basic.


Realistic Expectations...

9th-12th
