France FRANCE 2018 - Madame Monsieur - Mercy

[VikingTiger]

Mercy is quite an enjoyable song. France has done well again.
....but it's Reve de Gamin that keeps playing on my current playlist...

Love this song... I made little "remix" too.

Also, comparing it with Requiem and You, France's two latest entries, this for me is their weakest from those 3 so I don't see it in the Top 10 or 15

You miswrote it, but whatever.

Top-class song. It will be one of the most elegant entries of the year.

I am just sad, that they had such a great preselection, and gave us this. I mean, it sounds okay, it is nice melody, but it is boring as hell and omg those terrible lyrics, just awful. And I was rooting for you France, I really did.

Is there a particular song you liked in our NF?

 

[Scooby]

Still in love with this song

OK ou KO is the first one that came to my mind, it bought me immediately. Also Lisboa Jerusalem and Eva, so many great entries. So much more interesting than Eesti Laul for example, and I loooove Eesti Laul. And as I said about Mercy, I do think it is a good song, but bland and kinda boring, and there were some better choices.

I can understand that french People feel better represented by Madame Monsieur but I have to agree with the Juries that Lissandro would probably get France a better Result.

Not sure about this tbh. It's just another generic pop song.
And btw, "Mercy" is still in the top 10 on iTunes after one week. "Eva" or "OK ou KO" are not even in the charts anymore :?

What the hell? :?
Being represented by a generic pop song, which was way weaker than Christabelle's and Mikolas' ones is the worst that could've happened. Indeed, we're able to seize the opportunity to stand much more out than we could have expected with Ok ou Ko or Eva.

As you'd say in German: Das wäre eine Folter für alle gewesen, wenn Lisandro von den Franzosen ausgewählt würde.

I have to disagree. This is not about my subjective Opinion but about my Estimation. And im pretty sure that the Composition and the whole Performance of Lissandro has much more International Appeal than Madame Monsieur. I doubt that Madame Monsieur will work outside the Frenchspeaking Countries and I think this will rely very much on Juryvotes. But of Course I can be wrong, Lets find out.

And BTW:

"Das wäre eine Folter für Alle gewesen, wenn Lisandro von den Franzosen ausgewählt worden wäre."

The German passive voice tenses are so hard to remember. I truly though that we were able to use "würde" instead of "worden wäre", as we have to use "werden", whatever we want to talk about. :?

 

[Remembrance]

Still not sure what to think about this entry.
I somewhat like it, yet it doesn't draw me in as much as I like it to.

MM will place way higher than Alma if they don't mess up the staging all over again.

This is one of the best songs that France ever sent for a while.

maybe you are right, but I can’t see people falling in love with this song as they did with Amir and Alma. Good luck anyway!

Along with an outstanding staging, who knows... It can provide us one of the best results in the ESC.

I don't get this song, to me is so boring, it feels very flat. I can't imagine people voting on the night for it.

 

[cegs5]

The song is just fine... middle of the road, it doen't invite you to listen to or watch it again.
Emmy Liyana's OK ou KO was my favorutite for this selection, she was not just a singer but a performer, but nvm.
