Are you thinking about last year Spanish entry or new guy from Ireland? If about Spain, for me Israeli song from 2000 was better than this one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, it was very specific song, very funny and for me still better than last year Spanish song, where Manel couldn't sing Btw. What do you think about this candidate from Armenia?

What do you think about this candidate from Armenia? There have been a lot worse singers than Manel Navarro in the ESC. (Don't get me wrong, I don't think it was great but it deserved much better than it got) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Werloc 3,127 Posted January 31, 2018 #107 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Hm, I like the Spanish song, I'd just say that they should spend a bit more time at the grand piano's and their stage chemistry looks very very fake, so a lot more work on that.

justony 444 Posted February 1, 2018 #108 Share Posted February 1, 2018 Just saw @Werloc perform at Lithuanian preselection, a little late, but still. Have to admit I am not a musician, but am watching Eurovision closely enough for many years, and this song is really very nice. Quite melodic, very nice connection between lead and back vocals, not too forcing with this rhythm change in the middle of the song. If you nearly made it through first round, you either have a lot of very good performers or there is something ("Eurovision politics like") in the air. Anyway, once again, congratulations, and best of wishes in next round. For all those who did not seen his performance yet, now is the chance. Enjoy! mrv86 and Werloc 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I wouldn't call it as much as "Eurovision politics", but it is very important to be famous if you want to get anywhere in the televote. Basically, there are quite a few people that can perform up to 10 times worse than you, but people would still vote for them a lot, because they're "that person". On the other hand, the jury has also shown the tendency to favour those artists that tend to comeback a lot or have a name. Although, I can't really complain there, because even last year I got pretty decent jury votes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For instance some authors come to the contest with many songs for well known artist, so you almost immediately know who will win. We had a couple (Urša and Matjaž Vlašič) winning a lot of time due to their name, as authors. Now we have Raay (part of Maraaya), who is behind three of those songs, competing this year. So, many are already stating in joke, we should change name of our selection from EMA in Raayvision. Edited February 1, 2018 by justony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
