Nice song but I can't see televoters going for it. |

That note at the end of the middle 8 is gonna be moment of the whole contest tbh.
Love this on first listen It is a tad repetitive though that's the only thing. |

This is LUSH. Dami is an incredible singer so this should be a moment and a half live.

It's very good, but not the winner I was hoping it could be after the amazing preview of the verse. It's a bit repetitive, and that big note into the final chorus could be mixed differently for more impact - something that the live version will no doubt make the most of.
That said I'm not sure where the televotes are coming from as Adam says. I think this will do a Bella Paige with the juries pulling up a poor televote to a respectable result, mid-table in the final. If this was in the first half of the first semi, rather than the second semi I could see it struggling to qualify due to the intense competition in semi one - but it should be fine in the second semi. It could become a top 10 contender once we see a live performance, but for now I'm envisioning a Maraaya-esque result as one of the bookies' favourites that doesn't live up to those expectations. |

This is t usually the sort of thing I'd go for but I'm irritated how "almost there" it is. The line in the chorus really isn't that iconic to repeat twice, but I'm loving the thunderous production. I agree I think this is very much at the mercy of the jury vote to get this into the top ten in the final.

Obsessed with this. It's fantastically epic and could be a real moment live.

I don't get what everyone else sees in this. Like outside of "omg vox" what else does it have going for it? Incredibly lazy chorus and it's lyrically just... pointless. I mean I didn't really expect too much given how painfully obvious 'Tonight Again' was in every way possible but this feels like a very very early draft of an Azerbaijani entry.

Yeah it's still very good but the fact it is only 23rd in my rankings says it all considering female power-pop is usually my #1 genre. There's other countries doing this sort of thing much better, and I can't see this going top 10 unless they get staging perfect - if it was in the first half of semi one rather than semi two I could see it being in danger of DNQing, but it'll be fine in semi two. The juries will drag it up but I'm struggling to see who is going to vote for this, therefore doing what Bella Paige did in Junior Eurovision (poor televote dragged up by juries).

Bella Paige is actually exactly what I thought of when I first listened to this!

The EBU has confirmed Australia's entry doesn't break the rules regarding the "FaceTime" lyric, and it has resulted in a headline article by the BBC: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-35967540

Holy hell. If she performed that version the arena would explode, leaving behind a rainbow of snatched wigs.
Meanwhile, she served vocals in the 1st live performance: This post has been edited by PaulM1983: Apr 21 2016, 05:22 PM |
