Don't like the song at all but people seem to like it. I'm curious to find out if the juries like this one. Personally, I don't see this one as a darkhorse as I don't see the mass appeal but only time will tell.
This was the big favourite for my girlfriend. She was worried they might have been snubbed, but I kept reassuring her that they were definitely through. Had to wait for it, but I'm quite sure the result was never really in doubt. They probably finished second or third in the semis. Staging was a tad bit awkward, but the song is just very strong and it will probably do well in the final as well.
This is to me the best so far. The performance was great. Pretty sure it finished 2nd, after Russia. Interesting to see it's got so many views on youtube already too. Might do very well!!
Yes Lorde was the inventor of a whole new genre of music wasn't she?
Seriously it's ridiculous how when some eurofans feel threatened by an entry they just resort to saying "oh he's just imitatng artist x', or 'oh tis is plagiarism of artist y'.
You know, thinking about everything I've seen this last week or so (including all 40 TV performances).... I think Belgium are really the front runners. Nobody else has captured the imagination of the fans and crowd here like Loic and Rhythm Inside have and we were all cheering and jumping when they finally got through. It's the most impressive on stage and leaves a real impact. I can actually see it being Belgium's year. And having Austria then Belgium winning? Well, that'd be fantastic for Eurovision.
Pff always when we qualify it is with the final 3 countries. EBU likes to give the Belgians a heartattack and I almost got one last night in the arena and I Almost tore apart my flag when it finally happened.
