Israel ISRAEL 2018 - Netta Barzilai - Toy

[RainyWoods]

I'm still not sure what I think of this. I'm surprised to see just how much love "Toy" is getting. I guess we really have been starved this year when it comes to just fun, light-hearted pop songs. This isn't the kind of eccentricity I usually go for ("Toy" feels more of a forced kind of crazy) but I still think I enjoy it somewhat. The chicken part is both silly and infectious. The clip of her doing that will surely be used around the world on tv shows discussing/poking fun of the contest. I'm interested to learn how the song will be staged.

For now i'll give it 7 points. I'm not crazy in love with it, but it's presence at the contest is welcome.

Haha, from the fragments of the song I've heard in various YouTube vids, this sounds like a hot mess with not just a split personality but about 15 conflicting personalities all trying to be heard at the same time.

And you know what... I'm invariably gonna love it, 'cos this will be compulsive viewing on the night! Looking forward to seeing the full vid

What's all the fuss about? It's horrible! It's a chicken sound! Is it april fools' day already? (I'm sorry Israel)
But apparently I belong to a minority of 11% who think so...

So Dana International and some Chicken

 

[Romeo]

100% my favourite song this year!!! and Netta is my new favourite person in the world!

 

[DanielLuis]

So this is totally different and fun and likeable.
But immediate bookies #1? Lmao! The bookies really are so desperate to have a clear favorite every year, I don't understand why. Won't they make more money if things are perceived as a open field?
I think it can do well, especially in the televoting, and I really like it. But winning? I highly highly doubt that

 

[Yoozek]

DAAAAAAAAAAAAMN THAT"S JUST

 

[carl1]

wow that intro lmao, I actually dislike this even more now, changing my 2 to 1.
Wont give a 0, the instrumental is decent

 

[Stiven]

I don't know what to think. I hate the chicken voices, but like the rest of the song.

 

[QwaarJet]

Was too quick to give my points out. That new intro is basically the musical version of the seventh layer of hell. 6 points down to 3. I get why she is doing it (for the looper), but bloody hell.

 

[Yoozek]

I love the new intro, this is something fresh we need in there! Just imagine what's gonna happen in future contests cause of people like her!

 

[GlamSIMorous]

This is gonna go viral guys, it sooo is going to be a HIT! Just like GANGNAM style .. I see it coming.

I LOVE IT! This year Eurovision shapes up to be one of my favourites EVER!

 

[tsegaye]

I actually preferred the first version of the intro, I wonder which one they will choose in ESC.

EDIT: What if she performed in that pink dress, it would SLAY THE PACK

 

[Sammy]

Really I have no idea what to think about the song. It fascinates me and at the same time I'm annoyed by parts of it.

 

[henhu]

Demo version was better imo, the song gets more annoying after each listening... I gave
