Latvia LATVIA 2015 - Aminata - Love Injected

[Krishoes]

Best Latvian entry ever. 1

I loved before, but now I love much more. It's amazing how it grows with each listen!

Bearing in mind we already know what the Vienna stage is looking like, Aminata's performance should actually translate amazingly well to it

Is there a video of the live performance in the semi (when there were 8 acts left)?

That's my favourite performance too with the better outfit and without the backing singers.
Unfortunately, youtube removed all her performances prior to the final and replaced them with that one then.
I think you can still find her semi-final performance on DailyMotion though!

By the way, I really hope Aminata will shoot a proper music video for Love Injected. I think most Latvian eurovision entries shoot a proper music video anyway.

Thank you Latvia for this song.
Aminata has a big career waiting for her.

Her voice ruins the song for me - so screechy. Sorry Latvia.

She's also appearing at the London Eurovision Party...get that European promo, gurl

I hadn't figured out that the lyric was "the edges expand." That's a cool-arse lyric.

They fixed the backing vocals!

I thought it was "the urges expand" but perhaps you are right

My second favorite after Estonia. I'm so glad the baltic countries are doing great this year (how they score is not a criteria to me tho). Good luck!

Is the preview video the winning reprise?

They combined studio audio with the video from the finals performance.

But it certainly not the main performance, the cameraworks were different

 

[kamc]

I think she might have recorded a new version as the audio in the new video sounds slightly different, like the electro chords in the chorus sound much more pronounced than before.

I think Aminata needs to focus on giving a sincere, expressive performance, not making the same movements the same way every time. She's always very calm and intense as a performer, but she shouldn't be as stiff as she is now. She did better in that aspect when she performed Love Injected on that show with a band before Supernova.

I liked the band version too but for eurovision where the visual is also very important, I prefer the hand movements. I don't think she's coming across as stiff at all though....quite the opposite in fact, like she's very much in the performance with how intense she is.

interesting, experimantal, progressive, quite impressive, and it will crash and burn with devestation. still its in my top 5 for the year. dont stand a chance of reaching the final though, sadly.
