here are those that seem to be top contenders. pretty raw...
http://kp.by/video/461796/ in order of appearance there: Aura ( ) Yskui Abaljan ( ) Gunesh ( ) Lightsound ( ) though i get a feeling i've heard it before... The CHampions Youzari i like it but it's not for Eurovision for sure. Alexandra Gajduk and Natallia Baldina GTFO! Alena Lanskaya Georgiy Koldun - yes older brother. Anastasiya Vinnikova Drozdy (Blackbirds) Elena DOrofeeva Nina Bogdanova Tiani-Tolkaj (Pull-Push) and Vera Karetnikova Ekaterina Tereschenko it can be worked on (or with) and made into something interesting. but i doubt anyone that they can hire will have enough of a taste level to pull it off oh btw in case your head can take some abuse, here are some other entries http://kp.by/video/461747/ lots of facepalming, but i warned you This post has been edited by ih3artduck5: 3rd December 2011, 09:43 PM |

Lightsound, Gunesh, Alena and the other Koldun seem to be the best for me. Nina Bogdanova's song is ruined by the vocals.
Drozdy, WTF? According to esctoday, the definite list will be announced today. This post has been edited by N-S: 6th December 2011, 10:43 AM |

the finalists are
Lightsound Gunesh Alena Lanskaya Uzari Victoria Aleshko I have to say I'm very impressed with entries. I prefer some over other but will be ok with any of them representing my home country at Euro 2012 Job well done Mr. Tikhanovich and Ko! |

Starts in 30 minutes. I might even tune in (to make sure that Russian NF is going to be even worse).

so it's Alena
but since Kirkorov was there and was implying that he will bring victory, he will change the song, just wait and see. |

What an awful song.
Not heard the rest though. Hopefully Kirkorov will indeed bring the victory to Belarus and change the song, because so far this is a definite DNQ for them. |

Not terrible (still better than Albania & Switzerland) but it has nothing on 'I Love Belarus'.

Hmmm... She was pretty great performing the song at the end of Eurofest. I'm seeing it as a grower now.
This reminds me of Lithuania 2011 a lot. AMAZING voice, incredibly dated song (this even sounds more dated than 'C'est ma vie'), almost identical titles ( ). 19th place in the Final is the best. Although I still predict a DNQ. Unless they pull off a trick like Evelina did with the sign language. |

pros:
she is pretty she can sing she is pretty faceless and moldable, can take on any image: romantic girl, bitchy diva, whatever new song will require cons: song is rather boring (fixable) her english is rather awful (what else is new! MIGHT be fixable) dance skills unknown all in all Belarus entry CAN be saved... will it be? time will tell. |

Awful english pronunciation isn't the problem of only Belarus. Almost every country in the East, North-East and Central Europe is guilty of that

Almost every country in the East, North-East and Central Europe is guilty of that true lol but they try to take pride in it haha i remember my teachers: "mind your pronunciation!" it was like a mantra before exams haha although i doubt that now after spending over a decade in US i'd pass that "pronunciation" test. we had to speak with "royal british" accent... heavily seasoned with thick russian it baffles me though. with skype nd stuff it's so easy now to find yourself friends from every corner of the world. practice your english all you want!

I know right. Only we here, in Russia, were taught American pronunciation. I really cringe everytime someone makes a common mistake 10 times in a row. I don't know how teachers take it

Belarus isn't Belarus without that odd English pronounciation.

Alena is no longer representing Belarus, Litesound will be instead with their song 'We Are The Heroes'. Confirmed on ESC Today!

Here's the studio version of the new Belarusian entry Litesound. I think it's a lot better than Alena even though I quite liked All My Life. Belarus has moved up from 'good' to 'great' in my rankings

Better...but it's very 'Nickelback if they were from Belarus' vocal wise :/
It's really melodic and catchy and would be great in the hands of a tolerable singer. As it is, it's just 'good', not sure how often I'm going to want to listen to that voice... |
