May 23, 201114 yr I like it, but it is clearly the most indie thing in a quite poppy semi... then again Espen has to vote for something :kink: Well I've got to keep up a certain standard as THE MOST INDIE NATION © Silas unlike these fly-by-nights like Espen :D

May 23, 201114 yr :heehee: I don't see how I'm a fly-by-nighter? :( Oh God! Sorry Cal. I always get Espen and Eledan mixed up!
May 23, 201114 yr Oh God! Sorry Cal. I always get Espen and Eledan mixed up! Hehe, it's ok! ^_^ I was thinking "How am I unreliable??!?! :o" :P
May 24, 201114 yr This is a lot harder to call; ^ UnoShake: Alex Band - Only One ^ Botanikka: Cobra Starship featuring Sabi - You Make Me Feel ^ Hendinia: SoundGirl - Don't Know Why ^ Herzebania: Charice - Louder ^ Greenfroze: Frost - Parade ^ Espen: Vii - Ton Goût Des Garçons ^ Unovia: Helena Paparizou - Love Me Crazy ^ Elëdan: Idool 2011 - More To Me ^ Numayania: Dream Beats Feat. Alcazar - Feel 4 U ^ New Caprica: Colette Carr - (We Do It) Primo ^ Isconia: Niki & The Dove - DJ, Ease My Mind ^ Farahtyn: Darin - See U At The Club ^ Zechonia: Electric Lady Lab - Wondering ^ Fljótavík: Le Prix & Johan Agebjörn feat.

Darin's song is a little old now but it doesn't sound dated, in fact that sound/lyrical subject matter is practically eating up the charts right now - it was a bit ahead of its time I guess.
May 24, 201114 yr Based again on one listen here's what I predict to qualify from SF1... ^ Caerfyrddia: B-A-B-E - (Itsie Bitsie Boe) Geef Maar Lekker Toe! ^ N-Lazone: Baker - All I'm Gonna Say ^ Frahliso: Tying Tiffany - Lost Way ^ Kluminican Republic: Manian - Loco ^ FYR Vojvodina-on-the-Wold: Jenni Vartiainen - Nettiin ^ Dalisska: Kimbra - Cameo Lover ^ Lievant: Bon Iver - Calgary ^ FSR Rontvia: Eric Amarillo - Om Sanningen Ska Fram ^ Utopia: Those Dancing Days - I'll Be Yours ^ Persephonia: Beat Connection - In The Water ^ Lotopialand: Tim & Jean - Like What ^ Tinnmark: LidoLido - Different ^ People’s Republic of Jester: Radio Killer - Lonely Heart ^ FNT Nickodonia: Safura - Paradise ^ Ojnoj: Blake Lewis - Heartbreak On Vinyl :snif: ^ Bignia-Zaragovina: Stella Mwangi - Lookie Lookie ^ Kylienips: Suzie McNeil - Drama Queen ^ Batidas: SX - Black Video ^ Quintessa: Panic! At The Disco - Oh Glory ^ Quotosibb: Keri Hilson - Break The Ice Cannot BELIEVE Aaron sent a Britney demo :mellow: And fingers crossed Blake Lewis will get through, love that guy, it's time he released another album.
May 24, 201114 yr Having listened to the second semi finalists, here's my prediction: ^ UnoShake: Alex Band - Only One ^ Botanikka: Cobra Starship featuring Sabi - You Make Me Feel ^ Hendinia: SoundGirl - Don't Know Why ^ Herzebania: Charice - Louder ^ Greenfroze: Frost - Parade ^ Espen: Vii - Ton Goût Des Garçons ^ Unovia: Helena Paparizou - Love Me Crazy ^ Elëdan: Idool 2011 - More To Me ^ Numayania: Dream Beats Feat.

May 24, 201114 yr Revised semi 1 predictions, after re-listening and voting; ^ Caerfyrddia: B-A-B-E - (Itsie Bitsie Boe) Geef Maar Lekker Toe! ^ N-Lazone: Baker - All I'm Gonna Say ^ Frahliso: Tying Tiffany - Lost Way ^ Kluminican Republic: Manian - Loco ^ FYR Vojvodina-on-the-Wold: Jenni Vartiainen - Nettiin ^ Dalisska: Kimbra - Cameo Lover ^ Lievant: Bon Iver - Calgary ^ FSR Rontvia: Eric Amarillo - Om Sanningen Ska Fram ^ Utopia: Those Dancing Days - I'll Be Yours ^ Persephonia: Beat Connection - In The Water ^ Lotopialand: Tim & Jean - Like What ^ Tinnmark: LidoLido - Different ^ People’s Republic of Jester: Radio Killer - Lonely Heart ^ FNT Nickodonia: Safura - Paradise ^ Ojnoj: Blake Lewis - Heartbreak On Vinyl ^ Bignia-Zaragovina: Stella Mwangi - Lookie Lookie ^ Kylienips: Suzie McNeil - Drama Queen ^ Batidas: SX - Black Video ^ Quintessa: Panic! At The Disco - Oh Glory ^ Quotosibb: Keri Hilson - Break The Ice
May 25, 201114 yr I don't think I understand :drama: Even without having heard all of the songs from my semi - Parade seems like a decent indie/pop crossover. Semi 2 must be quite epic in terms of quality, then :o I just hope I manage to squeeze through to the final somehow. Edited May 25, 201114 yr by Freeze
May 25, 201114 yr What I wanted to know is, why was 'Break the Ice' not featured on Keri's second smash solo album, 'Ms. Keri'? -_- You know. That top 1,028 smash! (Which only 2 people probably ever bought... me and Gooddelta! COZ THAT'S HOW WE ROLL :drink:) It'd have fitted in nicely with all those demos and unfinished jobbo's! Nice to see Blake getting predictions on going through. I'm honestly in two minds about this, I want it to get through, but something's telling me it won't. :( But I'll take a listen to the semi and predict soon enough!

Well, so's semi 1, but at least there you can see a few that are pretty unlikely to make it despite being good, but there's definitely going to be a shock in semi 2, and I think the more of the same offering from Numayania could see their first ever DNQ...

Espen's song is great, I wish I could have voted for it as it's obvious that there's going to be a complete lack of support for it :( Surely not Numyania? :o :o :o Herzebania and Ashton should prop it up massively before it hoovers up its points from elsewhere to qualify comfortably!
May 25, 201114 yr I never expect to qualify from semi finals because the songs I send don't usually have mass appeal. :heehee:
May 25, 201114 yr Surely not Numyania? :o :o :o Herzebania and Ashton should prop it up massively before it hoovers up its points from elsewhere to qualify comfortably! I really hope so :snif: I admit it's not really anything new from Numayania, but the upside is that if I do DNQ I will have absolutely no qualms about sending the major smash I have under wraps for XXXV!
May 25, 201114 yr I really hope so :snif: I admit it's not really anything new from Numayania, but the upside is that if I do DNQ I will have absolutely no qualms about sending the major smash I have under wraps for XXXV! It would be a travesty, but like I said to you in the PM the other day, once you DNQ you basically lose your inhibitions a bit and think 'to hell with it'. Are you the only older country left who's still yet to have a DNQ? Although if it's a major smash that you have under wraps, surely it should qualify with ease anyway? :o
May 25, 201114 yr I just don't know. Although I'm sure that it would be huge if it made the final, I feel that there's a chance it might do a Kate Ryan if you know what I mean :( My major problem with it is that it isn't on YT (in the studio version anyway) and I'd expect people to listen to it from a TuneCore widget (me neither...) I've no idea if I'm the only older country to DNQ, I'll check. I did find another great song yesterday, but it's only on Soundcloud...
