^ Yeah, it's diffult but i hope so, because Cyprus has no friendly countries - alliances to give them votes :(

At least the background and enviornment fits perfectly with the song. He will suffer a lot to get through, but this has improved his chances indeed.

I'm in love with Giannis xheart He looks and sounds down-to-earth, I loved watching his interviews!

Being one of the underdogs, I think I know where my votes are headed to next Thursday. Song's been growing on me loads!

Yup :mrgreen:

Currently 15th to win and 5th to qualify! It was definitely one of the biggest jumpers after the rehearsals

I think lower top 10 is a possibility depending on the draw :geek:

I can't see why. The song is still a serious sleeping pill and the guy still has the same charisma of a dead fish xshrug

I hope Europe gets the sense back and don't force us to listen to this boredom again next saturday evening then :mrgreen:

This is essentially Cyprus 2004 but with none of the beautiful raw, unfiltered emotion. I find "One thing I should have done" very languid and void of any true emotions of worth. As a composition it's just plain dated, which would be fine (god i'm really not one to complain about dated compositions) if the song itself was interesting or the artist had any kind of charisma or warmth. Watching the full rehearsal, i've still no idea as to why this is gaining momentum. If this reaches the final it will be at the expense of another borderline qualifier that actually has a bit of spark and passion to it. I'm all for beautifully understated entries, this is just absolutely nothing though in my opinion.

This could reach the final but it would be at the expense of a country like Ireland, Czech Republic, Switzerland, Malta or Israel.

Agreed, except I'd take it a step beyond languid and cold and call it absolutely maddening. His emotional arc is "I was emotionally unavailable and was horrible to you but now I'm upset that you finally noticed," which really does not make him come across as likable, notwithstanding that that's his goal.

Very sweet but really not standout enough to do well. The running order position might help it, but I cant see Cyprus qualifying :( 6 points.

When in the blue hell did this get to 13th place on Oddschecker's winning bet? I am convinced this was bottom five/ten not too long ago. Or have I just not looked closely enough?

Right after the first rehearsal aired, it went up in the odds just like Latvia. Second rehearsal had an even better effect for both.
