Members OzFrog Posted February 25, 2021 Author Members Share Posted February 25, 2021 Why? I actually think it’s a great song with a great message. In fact, its my #2 behind France at the moment. It’s a shame the way Jendrik is being treated at the moment (he’s already started receiving quite hateful DMs on Instagram, which no artist should be subjected to). Everyone’s music tastes are different, and everyone has the right to like/dislike a song, but taking it out on the artist is just plain wrong. He is someone who is absolutely rapt to be representing Germany, and was chosen fairly and squarely by an international jury and a panel of 100 German fans. I absolutely admire his attitude and have loved him since his intro video a few weeks ago. Many people still seem to be upset that Ben Dolic didn’t represent Germany again this year, however according to Jendrik, it was Ben’s decision to walk away from the selection final. So the treatment he is getting is quite unfair. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Huntress Posted February 26, 2021 Members Share Posted February 26, 2021 I just don't like his "Oh, I'm so quirky and bubbly" personality and the song is nothing I would give a second listen to. It's too chaotic, hectic and disjointed for my taste. But we'll see ... I didn't like Lena either Please register in order to view this content Meanwhile ...

Members OzFrog Posted February 27, 2021 Author Members Share Posted February 27, 2021 Thanks @Huntress! I’ve added Ireland to the main post. Slovenia Please register in order to view this content ‘s song is being chosen tonight for Ana Soklic through their EMA show. It also marks the 60th anniversary of Yugoslavia’s first involvement with Eurovision (their first year was 1962), which of course Slovenia was a part of until 1991. Also 55 years ago, Yugoslavia sent their first song in Slovene (prior entries up to that point had been either Serbian, Croatian or Bosnian). Big news - Little Big have been reconfirmed for Russia . Song will most likely come out closer to the submission deadline date. Next week, starting Tuesday, it’s San Remo for Italy , every night up to Saturday when the winner is announced. And in between now and March 15 (Head of Delegations meeting), we still have 28 songs to reveal. This is going to be an action packed 2 weeks coming up for Eurovision 2021 songs... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members OzFrog Posted February 28, 2021 Author Members Share Posted February 28, 2021 (edited) Slovenia has tonight chosen the gospel-inspired song Amen for Ana Soklic to sing in Rotterdam... And Cyprus has also put the video for El Diablo on Youtube... Edited February 28, 2021 by OzFrog 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members OzFrog Posted February 28, 2021 Author Members Share Posted February 28, 2021 Albania Please register in order to view this content will release a revamp of Karma tomorrow night at 20.00 CET. It has not been unusual for Albania to do this with their entries in the last number of years, especially as a number of their songs from their national final will generally be longer than the required 3 minutes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members alphanguy74 Posted March 2, 2021 Members Share Posted March 2, 2021 (edited) THIS song I really like!!! I feel your pain, Huntress! That song is some kind of bizarre, Tiny Tim fever dream.

Members alphanguy74 Posted March 2, 2021 Members Share Posted March 2, 2021 (edited) It will interesting to see who they choose at Melodifestivalen, I ran across this song from a few years ago, and LOVE LOVE LOVE it... so disappointed it didn't get to go to the contest.

Members OzFrog Posted March 3, 2021 Author Members Share Posted March 3, 2021 Here’s the official video for Albania (I’ve also updated on the main post): Melodifestivalen is quite bizarre this year, probably because of the lack of live audience. Their weekly hosts though have been absolutely hilarious - Lena Philipsson and Pernilla Wahlgren especially, both Swedish pop icons in their own right. The betting odds currently have Tusse winning the whole thing, with Eric Saade, Dotter and The Mamas close behind. I wish that Sweden had just done an internal selection with The Mamas this year, but alas SVT don’t want to sacrifice their Melfest cash cow (it’s seriously Sweden’s highest rating program every year, even higher than Eurovision itself). Also, the mountainous adventure that is Sanremo started last night... 5 consecutive nights of 5 hours each to pick an entry for Italy Please register in order to view this content . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members OzFrog Posted March 4, 2021 Author Members Share Posted March 4, 2021 Also, it was confirmed in the last couple of days that most/all acts will perform live in Rotterdam, with the audience size yet to be confirmed, according to articles and interviews done with the producers and supervisors at the EBU and Dutch broadcasters. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members alphanguy74 Posted March 6, 2021 Members Share Posted March 6, 2021 (edited) I literally HATE the way all these female singers sound. I don't even know how to describe it. Anxhela is the only one I like so far. Her voice is beatiful. Edited March 6, 2021 by alphanguy74 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
