Bombo is hideous. I'm supporting Berger and Datarock(!).

Bombo's just another Zaleilah.

(Not that this is a BAD THING AT ALL and I fucking love it, but it's nothing different. Feed You My Love would REALLY stand out.)

My main gripe with Bombo is Adelen's Spanish. It's worse than Belorussian English!
Margaret's song is so...average though. Adelén could go one of two ways. Margaret's song has mid table written all over it. And Adelén wasn't that bad live!

If anything Margaret could go either way - it really sticks out, but it could either leave everyone cold or take off. Bombo to me gives off pure La La Love/Zaleilah vibes, I really can't see it doing THAT well!

 

(Even though it would be SUCH A MOMENT during the final)

The line in Spanish she's singing is genuinely not that bad though? Mandinga's Spanish was really bad af far as I can remember.

Don't understand this hype around 2 awful songs ("Bombo" and that Berger's horror)

Both would be a huge shame for Norway, which usually sent great songs, if don't count those shits from 2011 and 2005.

 

Norway is only 1 country, which sent even 3 male songs, which I like (Fairytale, My Heart Is Yours, I'm Not Afraid To Move On) :)

 

Most their entries from 70s are classic for me (Mata Hari, Oliver, Casanova, Smating, Lykken Er, The First Day Of Love, Touch My Life With Summer) + I like all three Kirsti Sparboe's songs from 60s.

I think I will actually just orgasm on the spot. It has more to it than both 'La La Love' and 'Zaleilah' I feel, and if the quality doesn't improve DRASTICALLY, then it's bound to do well.

She have lived in Spain for some years I think :unsure: I thought her Spanish sounded ok

The way she says "Corazón" sounds a bit off to me. I'm not claiming to be an expert on the Spanish language, but I certainly haven't heard it sung like that before.

 

If it does get chosen then it'll be my second favourite entry so far, but I'd rather Norway sent something that wasn't quite so generic two years in a row, and last year was hardly a rip roaring success! Especially when they have the option of sending a sound that hasn't really been tried before at the contest, aside from possibly t.A.T.u. Plus I'm not sure Europe quite understands it when Scandinavia goes a bit more international with their entries, they barely understood Tooji last year and the least said about the performance of Haba Haba and Ven A Bailar Conmigo in the scoring, the better.

Latin America mostly pronounce 'z' like 's' not 'th' anyway. But yeah I don't like her icelandic-esque pronunciation of 'ó' too though.

EVERY contest needs a 'La La Love' moment, was the best track of last year - and Bombo seems like it can be a La La Love moment :wub:
Euphoria >>>>>>>>> La La Love. Unless you're Cypriot. Or Spanish for some reason.
I don't mind 'Bombo', but I'm really not understanding this love-in for it... so generic, the instrumental sounds a bit cheap, and she was a tragic case in that live performance! Margaret all the way for me.

I agree, Euphoria was amazing but La La Love was definitely my favourite of the year! :wub: Bombo is more similar to Zaleilah I think, but I'd love either an Adelen or Margaret win!

I'm well aware most think that :kink: But noot personally, La La Love was such good pop fun with an amazing chorus - as is Bombo. It's SO perfect for Eurovision.

Bombo is now my favourite, but I'll still be happy if Margaret wins! I just hope 1 of those 2 do! :wub:
