LITHUANIA 2013 - Andrius Pojavis - Something

[doctormalisimo]

Finally got around to listening to this.

Decent song, but terrible singer and performance. He has the charisma of a horse and his voice isnt powerful enough for the song. This song needs a better singer or Andrius needs some sort of Ott Leppland style makeover.

Andrius announced that they will change their outfit for the Eurovision Stage after receiving quite a lot of criticism for the NF look.

Also, the Lithuanian team is looking for some funding currently. The broadcaster is covering the participation fees, travel expenses, accomodation and meals but all other costs will be covered by the team including hiring of the backup singers.

a sub par Killers wannabie?

 

[Sean]

It's more comparable to the Editors more than anything

I instantly thought Interpol singer singing a Killers song myself. Which, is basically what Editors are too so I can also see that comparison.

I 100% agree with this - the singer is awful. The looks like a less hyperactive Donny Montell in a top hat, which isn't really something that I want to see. Nice song though.

Lithuania has always failed to impress me and while this isn't terrible like most of their entries, it's nothing special either. Maybe the studio version will make the song better.

I am not sure if this decision is good,
he needs to improve his stage performance,and one way is with dancers..

For me, this song stood out from a poor selection at once and it's the best I can remember from them. It's a bit repetitive, but that's not necessarily a bad thing in this contex(s)t. It's very catchy, really, but not in too obvious a way. I like the performance, I like his clothes and if his voice isn't the best I ever heard since 1900, it's not that bad either and it suits the song perfectly.

I haven't been thinking favourites yet, it's too early for that, but this might be it. So far.

Anyway, it's a far cry from last year's effort. Sadly, it might not get them so far, though. I'll give it 7 points for now.

I played it in the background....it didn't make me think 'wow' or 'that's awful' but to me, that's a bad thing because it means it won't have any chance! A little boring to be honest...2 points

Acoustic xguitar

Noice xguitar He looks and sounds a bit intoxicated though. Perhaps he's been partying with the Greeks? :?

 

[DanielLuis]

This song is growing on me! I would have prefered "War on the wardrobe", but this song is actually quite nice.
I could see this being number 1 in many countries, some years ago.

I think you might be right!

The song is nice enough, I just don't like the way he sings and performs it. :?
