Damn! You cut out my comment to Elaine!! 🙁
I cut out quite a few comments to Elaine! And some of Elaine’s to you! And with good reason 🙂
Some of the lesser songs this week. Very liitle chance of any of these qualifing, in my opinion. Maybe Israel on a good day.
Sean, thanks for your thoughts. We will go through all 43, and that means some weeks might feel weaker than others, but it’s all in the listener! I’d like to think (hope?) that Iceland and FYRoM can qualify.
Georgia: One More Day, by Eldrine. – Mess, dont remember it, rather not remember it once i hear it.
Bulgaria: Na Inat, by Polly Genova.- This rocks, but it’s Bulgaria and no one votes for them.
FYR of Macedonia: Rusinka, by Vlatko Ilievski.- Undecided; pleasant enough.
Malta: One Life, by Glen Vella.- It’s okay, wont be buying the single.
Iceland: Coming Home, by Sjonni’s Friends.- dreary; but I was hoping for Johanna again.
Israel: Ding Dong, by Dana International.- Its one of those israeli songs; hear it before and its tired.
Out of this Songs i like Bulgaria most.
It´s part of my Top5!
ARGH! Iceland is growing on me!!! :S
I like Iceland the best out of all of these. I think they sound like Gary Barlow and Robbie Williams from Take That!
Completely agree with Ewan, Iceland is a very dark horse and in my opinion a potential winner.
I think that Georgia I have no Idea about live vocals because of the singer change. This song is in danger of screamyland and I agree completely about the song getting worse the more you hear it… Miss for me
Bulgaria’s Poli is going down really well live around Europe. I see this getting to the final but not making waves. I think that the song is sing alongable in spite of the language difference. What I think is that Europe will forget it… but remember they enjoyed it. Maybe
Macedonia is very neutral for me. I see it getting through a la Hayko and other people that steal a place from a more deserving act. Maybe again
Malta – waaaaaaaaaaaaaaan laaaaaaaaaaaaf is just annoying glen vella seems nice though. Miss
Iceland is for me the song that I think will charm europe and probably bounce into the top ten so Hit but without the story it wouldn’t have made it out of the semi final in Iceland
Dana is a Maybe. I mean Eurovision past winner. weak song. Old sounding derivative. strangely enjoyable
I’m catching up on all the podcasts ahead of Dusseldorf, but feel I must have been hallucinating due to overdoing it on my run in the gym yesterday as I was sure I heard FYROM declared the winner of a round of juke box jury. Fabulous work – looking forward to the daily ones featuring all the usual lovely people.
