Quite like this one! Best Romanian entry in a few years! :D

 

This :wub: All the final songs chosen today (Portugal excepted) are great :wub:

The presentation I saw of this entry a few weeks ago reminded me of Lynsey de Paul and Mike Moran :lol: :wub:

great song with a dull perfomance!

they need more action (coreography) on stage! and they'll do great in Oslo!

Is it my imagination or was Ovi in the Norwegian MGP final last year? He certainly looks like the same one...

^ it's the same one :P

Do you think he tried and failed to enter MGP this year? 'Cause who would change from Norway to Romania the year when Norway are hosting?

Last year. He was placed 5-8 in the final.

My new favourite entry, with Romania quickly becoming one of my favourite ESC nations :wub:

I didn't know before today that Ovi is Norwegian :lol: and he is the same Ovi who was in MGP 2009 :o

He's not, he's Romanian but moved to Norway when he was young.

 

Anyway, this is SERIOUSLY growing on me, and it's even beginning to sound like a winner to me :o

Same here, I really think this is one of the frontrunners. It is looking like the only song that would be able to hold its own and be a serious competitor in other years at the moment

I think it's a great song but I think it might be being oversold on here, it doesn't feel at all like a winner to me, it's very much like a normal chart song, and 'winners' seem to have something ditinguishable about them rather than just being a decent chart friendly pop song. We'll see though I guess, should feature in the top ten in the final at least :D

But that's the thing...there's nothing distinguishable at all (yet) in this year's contest.

What? :blink:

 

Norwegian newspapers said he is the same Ovi who was in MGP last year :o

Doesn't sound like a winner to me, but I think this could be the closest contest in a while....maybe even coming down to the last country :o

What about Finland? Some incredible shiver-up-your-spine accordion music a la Rybak :wub: Plus amazing lyrics, beauty of the singers and the great potential performance (considering what we've seen at Euroviisut)! This screams a Top 10 for me, although i may be biased because i'm loving it so much atm, it was such a huge grower for me, didn't like it at all the first time i heard it on that one December morning :o

It's wide open at the minute, mainly because none of the songs deserve to win :kink:

 

Here's hoping either UK, Serbia, Sweden or Bosnia-Herzegovina can come up with something good. All the other countries left to decide I can't see selecting anything great and out of what we have already, I can only really see Armenia winning :mellow:

Depending on what Serbia, Estonia & Greece pick, and what the Bosnian song is like, I think Finland will really struggle to qualify :lol:

OK...distinguishable, yes maybe. Potential winner, not by a long shot. I'm sure there will be many like you who have it as one of their favourites, but others just won't get it. It doesn't have enough of a universal appeal, but hopefully it'll make the final.
