QUEEN OF POP

Same Heart better not be done as dirty as it was in the actual contest....

She chose to leave

Yeah I'd say about the same, wouldn't be hugely shocked either way but I'd lean towards DNQ as semi 1 is so strong and has so many contenders!

Rate, those eliminator polls are the absolute worst type of thread cba

Actually a very good year given how it started, a fair bit of just ok filler/songs I don't care about, but even in my bottom section there's nothing outright unlistenable, the bottom just aren't my thing mostly. I doubt Chameleon will be budging from my #1 but 2-6 are very close and could feasibly be in any order tbh.

Pretty disappointing :( Not bad by any stretch, it builds quite nicely, but I was really expecting/wanting an ethnobop or something with a tad more oomph/attitude, perhaps it just needs more listens, again I'd probably like it more without Malta just demolishing everything.

I could easily see this being the Fuego of the year, it's a bloody magnificent pop song that's very current but it has a bit of a quirk to it with the drop. As long as she's good live (which from what I've seen is no issue, ofc an uptempo song with a bigger performance is more pressure) and has good staging this is surely going to do very well??

Leaky leak

Kinda terrible, hard pass for me

The album is sooo good, aside from Soldi obv my faves are Remo, Milano Good Vibes and Mai filglio unico <3

I'm actually so shook because of all countries you just don't expect Malta to come up and potentially snatch a fave

HOW DID I FORGET LUCA HANNI

 

I've been up since 5am soz xx

 

 

Mods can edit polls can someone add Luca plzzz :(

THAT DROP

 

Omgggg this is a SERVE *.* This might challenge for my fave with more listens, bloody hell I did not expect that.

Has to be Chingiz for me but yes plz to John, Miki, Duncan, Mahmood and Sergey too

 

(edit: and poor forgotten Luca)

As we all know, Tel Aviv is heating up with all the eye candy for the gays, but who is the hottest?!

 

(only included ones I've seen people saying are hot as cba with options for everyone, if I left anyone out soz xx)

As if Plastique is getting flack for using the Vietnamese accent in the Black Panther segment :rofl: Like... she is Vietnamese?!

 

Fake woke bitches in 2019 are SO tiring :lol: Like... if you're not Vietnamese, stop. If anyone can use an accent and background for comedy, it's those who have the accent and have lived the history.

I didn't mind doing it, and tbh if it was optional there'd probably be a shortage but I think they should be a bit more understanding of those who can't do it for whatever reason. It was pretty dull having to just sit around but I didn't mind the actual trial bit!

Very disappointing :( They're trying far too hard to have some huge dramatic moment, and it ends up at like a 5 or 6 rather than the massive undeniable 10 moment they want it to be. Very much style over substance, I can imagine they'll vamp the hell out of the staging to try and cover up the fact the song just isn't good enough as well.

Given it could have been Bishara, a solid song like Too Late For Love is just fine tbh and I shan't complain, Lisa NINTH though?! :drama: ANd poor Wiktoria sixth.
