February 25, 201114 yr Track$hitters, Sting's son and I Blame Coco's brother (seriously - Joe Sumner!) and wonderful Nadine are the final three! This show has been on for hours :drama:
February 25, 201114 yr Not a bad final for Austria, there's some real crap, half of them basically. The Oliver Wimmer song could be good but sounds too 'faux-funky' like a Stefan Raab production. There Will Never Be Another You is ok too. The standout three for me though Charlee (Kelly Clarkson gone electro), Eva K. Anderson (pleasant string laden ballad) and Nadine Beiler - blimey at the latter, I haven't heard a ballad build up like that for a long time, it's like The Voice Within with an added massive gosepl choir. Literally incredible. My opinion was shared by Austria, Nadine to ESC :party2: The second female ballad, and definitely the best.
February 25, 201114 yr WOW! This comeback from Austria was well worth the wait with such a beautiful power ballad which I belive it has the potential to win the Eurovision this year. The song has a positive message, she is a great performer and her voice - WOW!!!!! This easily the best song of ESC11 and the best Austrian entry ever.
February 25, 201114 yr Might've got drowned out in previous years, but if the female ballad count remains low this year, it should stand out and easily sail into the final. And hopefully give Austria a good enough result so they stay on another year :D

And hopefully give Austria a good enough result so they stay on another year :D I find it so much better than most of the average ballads that have appeared in the last few years, there's something about this one...I don't know what it is. I fell in love HARD on the first listen and the love has only got deeper in the last few days. It's on UK iTunes if anyone wants it btw, I bought it about 2 minutes after I heard it on Wednesday :P
February 25, 201114 yr I think it's got potential to be one of my favourites, the quality isnt too good on esctoday - but with the studio version I think I'll really like it :) Still hope the Greek ballad gets through though :)
February 26, 201114 yr I've just listened to the studio version and now I think it's really good and one of my favourites :D
February 27, 201114 yr I don't remember being so addicted to a ballad for years :mellow: I've listened to it 28 times in three days, which trust me is a huge amount for me, I tend to only listen to most songs once per day if that...if ever there was a song that could have been pefectly written to suit my music taste, it's pretty much this, I've been waiting to hear a ballad like this for years :o
February 27, 201114 yr Ha, I've listened to it exactly 28 times in the last three days as well! :lol: Although that's less impressive when compared to the 149 plays of Popular I've racked up in seven and a half days...
February 27, 201114 yr Why am I really not seeing anything in this song at all? :( . It sounds a complete mess to me, very similar to how I initially felt about Feminnem's song last year. Hopefully it'll grow on me like Lako Je Sve did, but I wouldn't be at all surprised if this also DNQ'd in similar fashion.

Oh dear, 20+ plays of Popular a day? That's insane! I think I've only listened to my most played song of the last 3 years 180 times, and that's Release Me. I'm just not one to over listen to the same songs, which is why the 28 plays for Nadine is so insane! If it DNQ's I'll be seriously annoyed, I guess it's the sort of song that you either 'get' in a big way or don't, but fortunately it's the former for me, it's perfect! I'm a massive ballad fan though, I can't think of many that I dislike...I guess it comes from being a Delta Goodrem/Xtina when she was good loon.

It didn't work quite like that, about 80 of those were in the first day!
February 27, 201114 yr It didn't work quite like that, about 80 of those were in the first day! I thought I was wearing Nadine's song out even playing it three times in a row (I literally NEVER put songs on repeat), but dear god!
May 13, 201114 yr Amongst a sea of dated Christina Aguilera circa 1999 ballads and mid-tempos on Nadine's album is this trashtastic gem (those lyrics! [insert Moopy grin]) VZuKllfbOGY The obligatory dance remix of The Secret Is Love is far more decent than it should be as well, subtle electro touches on top of a power ballad really shouldn't work in any circumstance but they definitely do :wub:
