Malta MALTA 2025 - Miriana Conte - Serving

[ESC United Mod Team]

 

[Yoozek]

Haha! I've been thinking to myself that I'm due for a change but this has motivated me to keep it for a bit longer.

Well you can always switch and wear Kristen for a while. If you did that every once in a while you'd definitely stay in character with the way you write. And having our own Moira in here...

 

[Yoozek]

Actually I got an idea

Semifinal 2 running order

Kantera

On paper the stronger semi

The camerawork. The outfits. The dancing. The cacophonous song. Fellini wishes. If this were to pull off a miracle win it would cruise to the classic LVER ironic megafave .

 

[Iker]

What are the ''least bad'' songs in the preselection of Malta? I remember their SFs & NFs in the past being notoriously bad with me ranking songs from most awful to least awful, it was rare to have more than one song that I'd find good (if there was even such at all). The winning songs ended up being scrapped by the artist in favour of something else too for the Eurovision at least a couple of times.

Stop it, LVER. You're going to make me become obsessed with Festa (No Time for Siesta).

My favourite part of the performance is when the older gentleman comes on at the end with his bagpipe, gives it a good blow for 7 seconds before he's had enough, turns around and walks off. We then get to see his exit from multiple different angles.

Give in, it will happen, it's iconic

It's hard for me to pick a favorite part but one moment I'd like to not let go unnoticed is when they do the stand-back-to-back-to-back-in-a-circle-while-the-camera-moves-around-the-circle-for-the-penultimate-bit-while-the-music-goes-down-a-little-in-preparation-for-the-grand-finale trick, clearly intended as an homage to the same moment in the historic slay that is The Peppermints' rendition of "Breaking My Art" at Jesk 2014 in what, I believe, is the same arena where they debuted the trick

 

[Looren]

We're seated

Kelsey being one of Erba's singers reminds me to say that Sirena was robbed last year

(her song this year is eh)

 

[lavieenrose]

Every time I watch "Festa (No Time For Siesta)" I notice something different and this most recent time I've noticed that one of them is wearing a different shirt in the opening clips with the insanely fast cuts of them boogieing vs. what he's wearing on stage

 

[Looren]

I hope this one makes it through, it's so feel good

 

[RainyWoods]

Love Me Loud is actually quite charming.

 

[Looren]

What did I just watch

 

[Charly]

s-s-serving kant

 

[njdevils94]

What was that tire fire of a performance?

Backing dancers wearing hospital themed teal. The social media comments, the exercise balls, the cheetah print outfit reveal. from Miriana. Nothing matched up but it was very entertaining. I guess that's how you serve Kant.

 

[RainyWoods]

Miriana sings her song very well but please, no. I won't let you ruin my dream team of Victoria, Kristy, Kurt and newly added super obsession JVF One of those names will be going to Switzerland. Perhaps all of them as part of a special new super group.

 

[njdevils94]

Not the fake lipstick application from Kelsea Ballante.

This is a far cry from work with Erba'. Trying her best J-Lo impression but she's an average rapper and it gets repetitive after 2 minutes.

Għażliet is a nice song and maybe even a potential winner from this selection. It did feel like two artists doing separate performances though.

 

[njdevils94]

Run of the mill entry from the other Kelsey. Not much going on on stage. She has a good voice but the overall presentation is very blah.

Miriana sings her song very well but please, no.

Half of it was playback too.

 

[RainyWoods]

Half of it was playback too.

Well, she lip-syncs it good then. I probably didn't notice as I was so confused by everything that was happening on my screen
