Well, of course, there is always that option that they will f up the staging.
But, I think it has a potential to be like :be: 2016, with other songs I don't see any potential. :p

I see your point :) "What's The Pressure" is a good example of a tricky song to stage that's been very well presented in the end.

Czechs already proved they could bring good staging (2016 was a visual standout imo), but they haven't worked on an uptempo/midtempo radio-friendly song lately, and those are trickier imo because it's easy to miss the visual energy the song needs to have the desired effect on viewers.

Hopefully, they'll get everything right.

Ew, what is Amir? I don't know her :lol: He had a Windows screensaver for his performance.

If Czechs do that, they're cancelled. :mrgreen:

On ČT's website there are interviews with the jurors. Some of them reveal their favourites from the NF or even who got their highest score.
http://www.ceskatelevize.cz/porady/...8/217254001390001/10988-international-jurors/

Dami Im: 8 pts to Mikolas
Sanja Vučić: 8 pts to Mikolas
Sunstroke Project: 8 pts to Pavel Callta
Jalisse: 8 pts to Debbi
Nathan Trent: his top 2 are Debbi and Mikolas (he didn't reveal the exact order)


Iveta Mukuchyan: When asked about her top pointer she said it was a difficult decision between Mikolas and Doctor Victor.
She also gave a review of each song and said Mikolas' song is exactly it.
Robin Bengtsson said one of the songs really sticks out and is amazing.
Liora Simon said she gave the top score to a song that was different and made her happy.

Worried about how well he can perform live. Rap songs rarely go down well at Eurovision. The Prague Eurovision won't be happening for a while I think

Re: CZECH REPUBLIC 2018

The winner will be announced tonight on ČT's main news programme between 19:15 and 19:30

Apparently, they are not planning to reveal the televote ranking at all :?
The fans are trying to persuade them to reveal the whole ranking, so hopefully they will change their minds.

Either that, or there's been some scandal with the televotes – e.g. the app voting was abused and one surprise act got way more votes than the others, but they can't prove what happened, so will just allow it and try to hush up the process. Hoping it's not something like that, but I can't rule it out, especially given that the process seems fairly open to manipulation (e.g. no accounts needed or anything).
