    Lidija is really much like Karol. Give a good first lap and then survival mode.
     
    Judita on the other hand, shocked me with her improvement. I really couldn't imagine seeing her anywhere close to top 60 this season, since it's her first WC year.
     
    Although I have a feeling this is probably going to be the best that we see from her this season, it gives me hope that next year both Lidija and Judita could fight for WC points.

    And that's without Norway, Sweden, Finland, United States, China, Japan, that could've easily lifted the number up to 41

    Heck, in Lithuania there was a huge Italian pop music phase when I was a child. 
     
    Then in mid 2000's Romania took over  
     
    I just spent my time mostly listening to music from the US and UK that my uncle recorded for me and my sister on CD's  
     
    Until of course I started winning or buying my own CD's and then the Internet took over  
     
    L'italiano was very very popular here amidst songs like: "That's Amore", "O Sole Mio", "Volare", "Felicita", "Bella Ciao", "Buona Sera", "Quando Quando Quando" and many others. It was often translated into Lithuanian and performed by local artists too as originals, which was and is very very illegal, but the older generation of musicians and artists really built their entire careers on stealing music that worked.
     
    Which is why I rarely nominate older music from Lithuania in these contests, we didn't really have that much to be proud of.

    Everyone is dropping like flies to Covid. 
     
    I believe it's Lithuania, Estonia, Canada and Finland that are having problems right now. 
     
    I would assume that same problems are starting for France as well, because not starting from 8th and 12th, there has to be a very good reason for that.

    Out here, where we have more information leaks regarding Latvia, Baiba is not much of a hero.
     
    She was training and overtraining right up to her pregnancy and got back training immediately after giving birth.
     
    Rumours floated around that her son was in critical condition at one point. 
     
    Also, the child chilling at the shooting range numerous times, being exposed to those decibels of sound is definitely not a great environment for an adults' ears, let alone a kid. 
  11. Wow!

    Don't want to rain on your parade, but couldn't skim past the comment on the Italian song being a bold choice. This was an international hit across Europe, I remember it being overplayed everywhere in Lithuania when I was a child  
     
    It has a very similar cultural impact as the famous Volare Cantare and other Italian classics during that era of music.
     
    So from the Italian perspective, it's as bold of a choice as the UK sending The Beatles or Queen

    I liked the Indonesian song, but the fact that it was uploaded on Youtube and was cut incorrectly at the end is what killed it for me completely. 
     
    Every single time I would listen to it and think that it's cute, it was immediately murdered with that unsatisfying conclusion.

    Great, I'm free
     
    Honestly been on this forum for long enough to expect absolute domination from Ed Sheeran, especially since it had Irish elements. 
     
    Felt like Serbia all over again.
     
    Even though I gave Ed third, I felt somewhat discouraged, because I would have been more excited if it was anything from the first two albums or many others from the third album. Never really felt too passionate about "Galway Girl", but I couldn't deny it, since it was a strong song.
     
    Ed Sheeran was the very first concert that I ever bought tickets to. It was his X tour in 2014, I remember buying tickets a week or two before the show in Vilnius Siemens arena.
     
    Funnily enough, two months ago I got the chance to buy a ticket to Ed Sheeran in the newly built Kaunas stadium and it sold out in less than three hours and they scheduled a second show because of that. Tickets are still available for that one, to anybody interested.
     
    Congrats to the winner and the countries on the podium.
     
    Another bad Lithuanian result, but this time we collected the full medal table, so I can at least go to sleep with the satisfaction that there were people that really liked it.
