Last year they had many nice songs in their national finals, semi-finals etc. But they chose one of the worst to represent them. I hope this year this won't happen again.
I love Hungarian language in songs and I'd like them to send something in Hungarian, but if they have something good in English I wouldn't mind. But not bland like 2012...
I agree, didn't like their '12 pick at all, total bore of a song.
Love the language aswell and I prefer an entry in Hungarian for sure.
This one remains my fav from 'A Dal 2012' :
Her live performance wasn't that good, but as a song (in studio version) I simply love it and I would gladly see something like that.
Not a big fan of this song, but better than "Sound of our hearts". I like Tolvai Renata in general, though. Hope she applies this year too!
They do; they'll be translated for the NF. Gina's song in Hungarian is "Nincs visszaút", dont know about András but he sure wasnt happy about this rule^
In English? I thought the new rules stated that entries must be in Hungarian?
It's similar to the Icelandic NF, they also have to be in their native language but will be translated into English afterwards. Actually a lot of songs were written in English and translated into Icelandic to follow the rules of the NF.
And this imo is just crazy, then why even have such a rule in the first place?
I'm very firm on this, if their broadcaster even have a rule that entries must be in native language then it's just odd and hypocritical to change them to English afterwards.
They change to English if they want, it's not compulsory.
I know? But still, if they have a rule for their own selection saying it's compulsory for entries to be performed in native language, then it's very odd to just suddenly change to another language after the selection. Then it's more honest and logical to just open up the national selection for non-native languages aswell (not that it's something I'd like, but atleast it's not hypocritical).

In the national selection its compulsory to be in the national language because the target audience is the people of the country. In Eurovision, they can change to English because the taget audience for the song is not the people of their country, but the people of all the other countries in Europe. Seems logical to me.
But I do agree the NF's should be mixed.
