Re: ALBANIA 2017

i liked pretty much everything but the two dreadful opera acts - the first guy and 2 members of Il Volo + Axel Hirsoux.

i was expecting a comment like this :lol:

Re: ALBANIA 2017

I'm not really on board with Lindita's song, parts of it are fantastic and really suits her as a singer, other parts not so much. The song allows her great freedom to sing strong and I think that's what she truly loves. A revamp of the song for Eurovision would be very interesting indeed. I'm here for her.

Just for the sake of it, I need the annual Kejsi Tola connection. Here's yet another version I found:

Re: ALBANIA 2017

Super excited for tonight. I was spamming some of my favourites this morning, and Lindita's song has really started to grow on me. It needed time. Tonight I imagine i'll be rooting for Lindita Halimi, Edea Demaliaj, Xhesika Polo (who I think is a big dark horse for the win) and Rezarta Smaja.... because Rezarta Smaja. My favourite is Genc Salihu who you think wouldn't stand a chance, but the fact they have him closing the show has me excited. I'm beginning to wonder if he could perhaps pull off a "Suus" and do this thing. "Këtu" is even more complicated though, and difficult. I fear the payoff won't be there for most who can wrap their heads around it. I think "Këtu" is the best song Fik has delivered since "Suus" though, so i'm keen to see it do well. I think it could be reworked for Eurovision as well, without losing what makes it special.

Re: ALBANIA 2017

Supporting Lindita tonight. Glad Rainywoods got more into the song. It's a real grower. I'd be OK with Dilan or Lynx as well. Yll would be a disaster. Rezarta would be OK with a rework.

Her song is something you've got to have patience with, which I didn't have when watching her perform it for the first time, I guess because my expectations were so high after the insanity of "S'të fal". After three or four listens I really started to get into this new one though. It's more "restrained" but it's really high quality and has a sophisticated build up to the big final chorus. Still disappointed by Rezarta's song, but I can enjoy it for what it is. I just would rather she come back and wins with something I can go nuts for in the run up to Eurovision.

Re: ALBANIA 2017

Flaka and Lindita both have grown on me since semis, Flaka has great outfit, hair, make up, while Lindita has awful one...on the other hand I think Lindita pulls better live, both songs are hard to sing live..Rezarta Smaja and her entry don't appeal to me at all..I'm afraid..
