Milki will qualify and eventually score a good point at the final, we already know the song and I tell you why!

Do you remember the Buranovskiye Babushki who came second?? Cut 60 years to each member of the group and listen to the songs again together one after the other. The magic is done!

Your missing the point. It wasn't the song that got the grannies second It was the fact they were grannies singing a song that you would not expect in the slightest. If it had been sung by 20 year olds, it certainly wouldn't have come second.

They were basically a gimmick.

Of course the grannies won the 2nd place because of the gimmick. The song itself wouldn't even have had a chance in the NF with younger girls. This song differs from the grannies song that it has a better hook and have a completly different approach that the Russian song had. This to me sounds a bit more "political" (even if they don't use a word about it). Singing about their accent, something that I am sure many english-speakers have been very irritated a lot of times in ESC by it. This is a song that many easteuropeans (and others too) can relate to, the hard feeling of learning a language not perfect enough and the way people getting so irritated about it. Also that the song is written by Alexander Rybak will make them sail through the NF (with or without Lukashenko, I think even without him or his people involved). I also believe that it has a good shot of qualifying, if the draw for Belarus is good enough. But not better in 20th in the final I think is the most it can get, but still it is a fun song which I will support if it gets to Vienna!

I hope they can, i've been listening to "Fighter" all week. It does indeed have the potential to be really epic. As Schlagerman pointed out on the previous page, it sounds very 90's. Has an almost En Vogue feel to it. Their routine looks solid, the song is very hard hitting and in your face, plus they sing well. I think they could come from behind and take this.. that is if the winner isn't already predetermined

The intro is like a little fairytale but then a smoking hot beat kicks in over it and the girls get in your face.Its very powerful.The chorus with the deep voiced one singing over the other two's harmony really works well.No hiding from the fact that structure really is dated and seems very manufactured in places.It works though because the girls inject the whole melody with energy and fantastic little moments.I love the little short bridges where you hear the girls take a breath in,,you know they are going to crank up.Id like to see those few electro moments as they come out of the bridges removed though.They date it too much and one part is bordering on rap,id be tempted to change that.

I can imagine the staging at ESC with this.The girls stepping out of the dark one at a time through the intro then bang.They even have room for three backing singers to make things even more layered.

MILKI will be favourites, but they are wafer thin.Huge potential to be a complete car crash at ESC.Eurotrash has been done many times better than those girls can manage.Interesting to see if things are fair this year.No jury could vote MILKI top if independant.

That's the truth, but you can't deny our subconscious already knows that formula, so it will be easier for us to "digest" Milki's song... am I getting too psychological??

Most people didn't even listen to the song. They just saw grannies and voted for them. Proper Eurovision fans would but the general public won't make the same connection.

I will say that I actually quite like MILKI's song

I looooove Milki's song! It's already in my music collection

I'm not gonna say Belarus can be my winner for a 2nd year in a row,but Milki girls are top 10 material for sure

I don't get ''Accent'' hype. But I don't listen other songs before national final night so I don't judge yet.

I hope for Uzari & Maimuna – Time but it wont happen because of Rybak .

Pretty much this. Which is a shame, because on multiple listens, this is the first truly brilliant song from NF season.

I quite like Uzari, though I think MILKI would be much more likely to earn a good result for Belarus in Vienna.

And they would finally bring the Belarusian language to ESC. They even preferred it over Russian at JESC 2014!

re: BELARUS 2015 - Uzari & Maimuna - Time

I accidently heard Uzari & Maimuna – Time today and it is much better than Rybak's song.
I try not to listen other 13 songs before the final.

Accent has the same hook as Maps (Maroon 5).

btw. Only Teardrops and Copacabanana share also the same hookline imho....

re: BELARUS 2015 - Uzari & Maimuna - Time

Omg, you CAN sing the chorus of Copacabanana over Only Teardrops or vice versa
