The best song has won
He's singing perfectly, but the melody had to be better and more convincing

Good luck Jermenija

RIP Kamil Show
I guess the era of joke entries ended.
Well, I like Qami as well.
After 2008 for the first time I love an Armenian song xheart
(I also liked 2010 but found the singer too annoying)

I don't get it. It sounds almost exactly like every other ballad I've ever heard, yet people are ecstatic over it. It makes me feel like my ears are broken because I can't hear that special thing others hear.
I give it a solid "meh". It's by no means a bad song or anything. It has it's moments.
Maybe if I listened to it several times, I'd finally get it, but what's the point in that?

Eh, not necessarily. The juries going against something like this isn't particularly surprising, and Kamil came a respectable second place on the televote - as a drag queen, in conservative Armenia, with a televoting system that favours widely-liked songs, and losing out only to a singer with a strong voice and apparently huge popularity. Juries make it harder for joke acts to get to Eurovision now, but televote-wise the good ones still have a chance.

Glad to hear we're both happy with Qami, though :)

Because we're ESC fans, not casuals. We listen to songs loads of times. Some take longer to click.

Qamiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii Foreverrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr Kamiiiiiiiiiiiiilllll

Hmm the choice is okay, doesn't get me particular excited. He looks and acts like a rapper, everytime I see him I'm waiting for him to throw some bars but niente xd. I wanted to give 6 at first but I don't rly have interest right now to hear it again so will have to reduce by 1.

It's nice, powerful vocals. Something is missing... or maybe the ending is too much. I gave :8:

THE GOOD:
-It's got decent instrumentals and decent vocals.

THE BAD:
-It's barely memorable.
-I was bored throughout the song.

THE VERDICT:
I'm not sure if this will qualify. It probably will, but if it does, it'll be in the middle of the pack. It just does nothing for me, even though the song is good. 7 points

I don't know. If it was not for the native language, I would downvote this song.
The language makes it special for me and the vocals are perfect. The stage idea at the ending it's cool. 10 points.

My #2 so far. I love the last minute of the song. I just wish he didn't say "Qami" so many times. It needs more lyrics.

I like Qami but Sevak's live singing make me nervous. Don't know why.
However, this song is great

Kamil Show should announce Armenian points or something. :D It's fun, but that performance gives me Ireland 2008 vibe. And that was horrible.

Gosh this is second winner of Ukrainian X-Factor participating on this year's ESC xfaint I think :am: will be TOP-10 in May. But the song is not quite for my taste. I still appreciate its beauty so give it 6 pts.
