Despite getting back into the final this year after a couple of non-qualifiers, speculation is rife that Malta may not be using the second season of X Factor to select their entrant for 2020. Last year this method was confirmed in June, with the announcement of X Factor, but auditions for season two are underway and they aren't making a big thing of the winner going on to The Netherlands
There are also rumours that Brooke Borg, who entered Malta's former selection three years in a row (2016-2018) and achieved 2nd, 3rd and 5th places, may have been internally selected or may be working on a potential entry to woo the Maltese delegation with! She has been in Bulgaria working with Symphonix, the team behind "If Love Was a Crime", "Beautiful Mess" and "Chameleon".
X Factor has since been confirmed as their act-selection method, and guess which audition is airing tonight..!
Destiny continuing to slay her X Factor performances. Has Will been informed?
Ready for her to be given some Lizzo style inspirational pop in the event of her coronation!
I see that our Ryan did an article for escxtra earlier in the week asking if Jasmine was destined to win, based on her first live show performance trending on YouTube. And then she was eliminated straight off last night. Good old Malta doing a bit of rigging to ensure that no one stands in Destiny’s way
(I have more expectations for Malta this year than any other country, the “Me Tana” robbery will pale in comparison if THIS doesn’t go to plan)
I would welcome Malta winning (with the right song) as its a country that hugely supports Eurovision but have yet to win.
Destiny could potentially be the first person to win both contests, that is a record Malta would really like to have.
Howling at them rigging it for Destiny but here for it tbh
The expected happened (after she did a duet with Amelia Lily *.)
ITS ABOUT TIME
can we not just bend the rules and allow Malta to send Not My Soul again
it didn't deserve to languish in the junior contest
screaming at Amelia Lily tho
Amelia and Louisa securing that BAG *_*
So this will likely be the last song of 2020 to drop. Pretty much confirmed that Symphonix are behind the track whose back catalogue includes Every Bulgarian entry since their return, Dance Alone, Nobody But You, Truth, Chameleon from last year and have also written Violent Thing in Germany this year so there's every reason to expect that the material will be top quality. And given they were smart enough to steer away from a ballad when there was too many of them in the contest last year, here's hoping they've played their cards wisely again.
They're taking their time, it's building up so much hype that I hope it's worth it
Omg this is gorgeous! It is very Paloma Faith
I love it. Not quite as instant as "Chameleon" but it's sure to wiggle its' way into my Top 10 quickly. The instrumental is really good and I'm sure she'll slay this live!
this is amazing!!
Yasss Destiny - as much as I don't think anybody really has much of a firm clue about who's going to win, I think this could give Malta one of their best results in years.
Iconic.
This is incredible AS EXPECTED. But seriously, it really the song that we should be sending. Still sort of fitting that Radio 2 friendly brief that the BBC want but actually making a STATEMENT. I just had relisten of ours and it sounds so so limp in comparison.
At first I was like "all the hype for this" but after like 2 listens it grew SO much!
Just heard this. Wow.
The standard of song this year is phenomenal. There's great songs gonna get booted out in both Semis/
why is neither this nor Not My Soul available for streaming
c’mon Destiny, feed your UK stans
This is seemingly now out to stream *_*
Can’t believe this will get done dirty
They should have either allowed this year’s entries to be able to be entered next year or just gone ahead with the competition virtually
