If "Alive" is the song Australia will send, its definitely one of my favourites! Its catchy and sticks to the head! I cant get it outta my head to be honest! :) It's not annoying, its amazing!

I still can't believe they chose the artist first instead of the song :( If they only had one oppertunity they should have went for a killer SONG first and foremost, not for a big artist that will choose a random album track xshrug

In these days of so many idol contests many people don't take that approach unfortunately.

If i was Australia (:mrgreen:) i would make the same thing.
Because they need a BIG name, that everyone can follow to their debut. ;)

More possibilities.

Or he could write a new song.

The album songs will have to be cut down to fit the time limit too.::nswa::vict:au::au::au::au::au::au::au:

Re: AUSTRALIA 2015 - Guy Sebastian

If we win it, well it could be numerous places.

SBS is not the ABC (the other Government broadcaster) and so it less certain to pick the UK (ABC would just pick London). That said London is the most likely place. Germany is another possible candidate, afaik the SBS presenters use a German camera crew over there. There is also a cost factor and existing infrastructure factors.

We won't win though so it is all just dreaming, Guy is a great choice imo though. Can sing live, good performer, very likeable (good sense of humour) and will give it a good go.

Re: AUSTRALIA 2015 - Guy Sebastian

From what I've listened to so far, Madness, Alive and The Pause could all be respectable entries. Not amazing on early listens, and there's not a winner in there, but they wouldn't be an embarrassment, at least. I'm still hoping he's been secretly writing something great that we'll see in the next week or so, but at least I doubt I'll be hanging my head in shame unless we send one of the worst tracks on the album or something.

Also, welcome to the forums, [MENTION=14483]Terumo[/MENTION]! Always good to see more Aussies here.

Re: AUSTRALIA 2015 - Guy Sebastian

Guy Sebastian performed on a radio station here in Melbourne a few days ago. This is what the station tweeted out: "@kiis1011: @GuySebastian just revealed he's writing a NEW song for #Eurovision!"

His album has some interesting songs but really when i listen to it i just want to grab the bests parts of each song and combine it together.

When people write songs especially for Eurovision the result isnt the best (for me).

Have Australia got a deadline extension or do they need to reveal their song by Monday?

I was gonna ask the same. If they have to reveal the song til Monday and Guy only started working on the song after the artist reveal I don't know if we can be expecting something great... It would be fair for Australia to have a deadline extension in a way, considering they were only revealed as participants in February, but the extension should be only a couple of weeks at most.

Re: AUSTRALIA 2015 - Guy Sebastian

Seems a bit late to start writing a new song, especially when they had so much time to make their decisions xthink

They clearly took a look at the competition and are now changing the original plans because of it :lol:

Re: AUSTRALIA 2015 - Guy Sebastian

Choosing an act before they even know what they will sing is a bad idea.
