The Naitch Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 Semi Final draw is out. The UK get to vote in the first semi… 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diamond_for_life Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 Hey Naitch hope you don’t mind me asking. You listened to the countries that have selected their representative yet? Was toying with the idea of staying away from it as I felt there were a few that were really good in the music video that got no where near qualifying. Left me annoyed with some of the pish that did get through (although I didn’t watch the semi finals live). Went back and watched last years final last month and my opinion on a few songs has fairly 180’d especially with Germany. I also see how some are just not meant to be live and come across so much better in the music video (one you guys mentioned was who the hell is Edgar which I thought is still garbage live). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I’ve not listened to any yet. I tend to stay clear until near enough finals week and take it all in then. There were a few songs which didn’t translate well live last year though they’re usually in the minority. Olly has been wheeling in the big guns to tease his song… 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

honestly united Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 (edited) I always tend to watch all the video's and download the official album to give the songs a listen to before the semi's start (insert kenneth williams gif here), but will probably wait until they are all out As above there are always a fair few that just dont translate from video / recording onto the big stage. From Jana Burchcheska for Macedonia trying to do an up tempo pop song at 7 months pregnant (Dance Alone was a cracking tune in 2017 - didnt get to the final) to quirky comedy song of Who the hell is edgar last year. A lot is either down to the singer being bad live and the video / recording are autotuned or they change the song too much before the final that the live version is so much worse than the original. It goes the other way as well, as the main men of Moldova Zdob zi Zdub were much better live I thought than the video Edited February 7 by honestly united 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Naitch Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 Interesting day in Eurovision land - they’ve announced that phone voting will open before the final starts instead of after everyone has performed. First time in about 15/20 years they’ve done that. Hours later it was then confirmed that Sweden will be 1st in the running order. Not fishy at all 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
