HUNGARY 2013 - ByeAlex - Kedvesem

[Andreea]

And to the person who said that this got votes from Finland due to language. By that logic you could say that Moldova will get points from Spain due to the language in the final.

It has nothing to do with the language, but with diaspora. Moldova will receive points from Spain because there are many Romanians in Spain, (Moldovans are also Romanians) but Hungarians don’t have a strong diaspora in Finland. So if Finnis vote for Hungary it means they liked the song, they not vote because of the language. I will not vote for Italy only because Italian language is very similar to Romanian , I have to like their song

Surprised this went through but I'm happy it did, lovely understated entry

 

[RainyWoods]

Feeling better now that you wrote it all down? Good.

I am, thank you ever so much.

<<<Errrr>>>. wrong answer. His manager entered him to a hungarian competition. Alex didn't feel ready yet, to go on stage. FYI

Well I don't think that's really any kind of excuse for him. What kind of manager does he have that goes entering him into the big, shiny spectacle that is Eurovision? Possibly the wrong one for him? Couldn't he have just said "no" if he wasn't ready?


I suppose I need to look at this in a brighter light. It's nice that something so simple and understated can pass through to the final. I feel there were about 5 more deserving songs lost last night though.

I'm happy this passed, also if I prefer the cover made by that girl on youtube.

 

[DanielLuis]

I think the guitar player got them through

 

[gazzerl67]

You're mixing it up. You must mean Denmark.

Sorry I'd reserve that little accolade for the fanwank that was San Marino - which got what was coming to it once it was let out into the real world beyond Eurovision fan sites

 

[debemaks]

Reeeally happy Alex qualified, I love his song, even though live performance did not convinced me 100%!

Hungary might be the dark horse of 2014.

 

[katapult]

I hope it to be in 2013.

 

[wittgenstein]

I hope it to be in 2013.

Ah I was a little quick. I meant of course 2013!

 

[CypriotGirl]

I'm happy this one went through for these reasons:

1) It's a nice little song, easy listening, and I had worries the ESC voters wouldn't notice it because it's "boring" for a live show. But it showed that simplicity between many "funfairs" we've seen in semi 2 paid well.

2) Hungary usually sings in English, first time after long time they dared to send something in Hungarian, and that's an additional reason I wanted it to go through, so next year they'll be encouraged to sing in Hungarian again.

3) It's so non-ESC-ish song at all, I'm happy when such songs receive recognition in ESC.

I think it's doomed to a very low place but anyway good luck! It'll be lovely to hear Hungary again tonight

I think it's doomed to a very low place

Not sure... I does well on Itunes... It can surprises us, all the more as Serbia, Croatia, Slovenia does'nt have any other neighbour/community left, plus this kind of music can please Northerns, and so on... It may do better than Compact Disco and Kati !

Well I wouldn't mind that!

 

[Alberca]

It'll have my two votes tonight in Spain.

 

[Celia]

My dad is obssesed with this song I don't know how many times we've listened to it today
He's also asked me to download the live version because he loves the girl's soft back vocals

 

[Little]

My fav version: 2

But also the original is good.

 

[Mozz]

The melody of this song is just brilliant, magic.

If I had to pick 1 song to send a vote for tonight it would be this one.

 

[Eurovisionified]

Good luck tonight, my cute little hipster-boii. We will see if you sings the last line in Swedish like you intended to do.

 

[Zorjan]

I think it was quite sad that it made it to the final.. Though the song and performance suits him very well, I'm very bored when watching it
