March 25, 201015 yr It started out as a mediocre little pop-dance song, but then the English version sounded better (though the jazz version scared me :lol:) and now the ESC version is PERFECT :wub: But there is more competition for it then I would have thought a month ago... Me too, it's instant top 10 if it's good (for me at least). It's catchy and Josh is a good singer, but I'm not 100% behind it yet... The song sounds like absolute $hite on the live performance though because of the DIRE backing vocalists. Josh was actually good but they clash badly in the verses at one part. The studio could be very good though.
March 25, 201015 yr qgeklMIc6_k I wish the video had more dancing though... thanks...it's the first time Im seeing the video...as for dancing :lol:, don't expect cause we really don't have a good choreographer.

March 25, 201015 yr Really? None in Albania at all? :o By the way, if Albania does win, can I stay at yours? :kink: they have some but they're not good at all (they think that they are though :lol:) of course u can but I doubt Albania will win this decade lol

March 27, 201015 yr Looking back, last year really did have some DIRE entries, it's just that none of them qualified for the final. As long as we can successfully get rid of the rubbish again in this year's semis, we should be on course for another great final to be honest. As a comparative rate for me, my top 3 last year were Fairytale, It's My Time and La Voix, whereas my top 3 this year so far are Satellite, This Is My Life and It's For You (Drip Drop incredibly close 4th at the moment) - true I much prefer the former three, but they've had the benefit of growth time and the actual performance at the contest itself. Lets see how I feel in 3 months from now.
March 27, 201015 yr Let' Tmou was amazing for you? Wait, Aven Romale was good for ANYONE? I like a good range of songs :P

It's usually when the official compilation comes out that I really get into the songs, but at the moment I can't see me liking many of them as much as last years entrants.
March 27, 201015 yr I can see your point. It's usually when the official compilation comes out that I really get into the songs, but at the moment I can't see me liking many of them as much as last years entrants. Last year was sensational, this was always going to be a comedown :( but I agree, once I've got all of the official HQ mixes of the songs on the compilation, they start to sound better. I can't see anything as good as Fairytale and Hold On Be Strong, but 2007 didn't have any songs that changed my life - I loved Belarus, Bulgaria, Russia and UK (:lol:) but I wouldn't rank any of these as all time favourites of mine. So it's the weakest contest in 3 years - not as bad as I'd originally feared though. I definitely think that Germany, Sweden and Azerbaijan, perhaps Ireland and maybe Iceland if I don't start getting bored of it again will go down as some of my favourite ESC songs of all time when all's said and done. Of course if Salem and A1 had been selected instead of Anna and Didrik then it would be another amazing year for me, but that's life :lol:

March 27, 201015 yr I think I was the only person on the planet who didn't see the fuss about Song #1 :lol: This years contest is the weakest since 2001 for me (at present!).
March 27, 201015 yr Well I did just call it one of my 4 favourites of the year, but it's not something I particularly rush back to listen to, same with Water and Work Your Magic, as much as I loved them. Whereas Fairytale, Hold On Be Strong and Hero crossed boundaries by becoming songs that I will happily listen to frequently during July-December :heehee:
March 27, 201015 yr I think I was the only person on the planet who didn't see the fuss about Song #1 :lol: This years contest is the weakest since 2001 for me (at present!). Which in turn is one of my favourite contests ever thanks to Everybody, Die For You, Je N'ai Que Mon Ame, Never Let You Go, No Dream Impossible, Listen To Your Hearbeat, To Live For Love and tons more :wub: 2002 was the disaster for me, only 6 songs I liked I think - awful :/ And I can only claim to have 'loved' Come Back, 7th Wonder and Runaway. At least my chart at the time wasn't saturated with ESC :lol:
March 27, 201015 yr Azerbaijan are on course for sending my favourite song for a second year in a row :wub:
March 28, 201015 yr How people love that Norway song really baffles me.... It's just SO blah.......can anyone explain to me what's great about it? :unsure: Norwegian doctors should hand a cd of this out to insomniacs instead of pills.... Edited March 28, 201015 yr by Sabrewulf

'Insomniacs CD, featuring songs like 'It's For You', 'Lost and Forgotten', and 'Narodno Zabavni Rock' :kink:
March 28, 201015 yr How can you like My Heart Is Yours and not It's For You :o Apart from the obvious :kink:
March 28, 201015 yr How can you like My Heart Is Yours and not It's For You :o Apart from the obvious :kink: I don't like it... I don't remember the song, and when I listen to it again.. it's always 'new' for me.. so it don't grow either :P
