MONTENEGRO 2013 - Who See - Igranka

[Scooby]

I only know that this is only song from this year ESC who become very popular in all ex-yu republics. Igranka is number 1 on serbian MTV, and u can hear it in every single club

Starting from most people get pissed when they hear rap

Yes, including me.

I literally VOMIT on rap music.

 

[A-lister]

Yes, including me.

I literally VOMIT on rap music.

I'm not a big fan of rap either (although I was a big hiphop fan for a period), but this is more club music than regular hiphop though.

Why doesn't anyone dance to "Suus" in the clubs? You could throw some real experimental shapes to that.

Oh please, come on! This is not about ESC grandmas. The ordinary viewer doesn't like this stuff. Starting from most people get pissed when they hear rap, so most people are pissed with at least half of this song.

For example, I was watching the semi with some friends and they are not ESC fans. All of them agreed and said "WTF is this, it's terrible" and one of them even wanted to put the mute. I bet my house was not the only one where something like this happened

So? It's also received a lot of positive reception, way more than most of the qualified songs. Do you think an ordinary song that receives middling reactions deserves to be favored against one that polarizes opinions? I think entries should be rewarded for being liked rather than for not being disliked.

I would definitely prefer to watch a final with 13 songs i love and 13 songs i hate rather than a final with 26 songs i'm indifferent towards.
What about you?

And my non esc fans were quite excited about it when Estonia is like the country least likely to give points to Montenegro. So the issue is probably in your friends not liking it, not the general audience being totally against it.

There's nothing wrong about the rap as a genre itself, as I said before, If rap has not succeeded before It's because of the bad rappers not because of the genre.
Greece 2011 had kind of rap part, and It was good, so it was also placed high...
Finland 2009 went to the final thanks to jury wild-card, so it proves that rap can make it.

In this particular case, the rappers were terrible, It's a pity because Nina was amazing and probably one of the best singers this year.

 

[Nikkita]

I'm so sad for them.They had to be qualified,i loved the song and Nina's voice.Also their postcard was so lovely!

 

[Sean]

Hope Montenegro will continue taking the path they are taking. Doesn't matter if Rambo and Who See didn't make it, it was important that a country was willing to give these types of songs a chance, and long may it continue.

 

[Smudy]

Watching this again....really sad that it failed. They had the best camera angles by far and the performance was also pretty good from the rappers. Nina of course very nice.
I bet, the juries killed this completely.

 

[wittgenstein]

I think Montenegro was 11th.

 

[A-lister]

I think Montenegro was 11th.

Wouldn't surprise me, probably a juries work that it failed God forbid if something is out of the conventional in this contest

 

[CaraMia]

Right now, on YouTube, Montenegro's video has 1221 likes. It's the most liked video of the first semi-final! 1

This is how Australia voted for there top 3 songs in the Eurovison first semi final broad cast tonight...Australia was part of the action, voting and rating the contestants of Semi Final 1 on the SBS Eurovision website. The top rated country was Denmark with 32,578 points, followed by Montenegro with 22,562 points and Ireland in third place with 21,916 points.

 

[demonl]

Yeah mate we love this entry.

 

[A-lister]

was #12 in its semi, just 11pts behind the 10th position

So close!!!

 

[kloflori]

place 12 in the semi, so close to the final,
but the jurys killed the song i think, nevertheless I still like the song very much

 

[blein]

I think >
Serbia Eats Montenegro's points and Montenegro eats Serbia's points and both fail

 

[A-lister]

place 12 in the semi, so close to the final,
but the jurys killed the song i think, nevertheless I still like the song very much

Yeah, will be VERY interesting to see the split votes... I also think those "experts" killed it for them (as I expected)...

 

[hijirio]

Malta came 8th, Montenegro and San Marino were close to qualifying.
Eurovision 2013 could have been the year of micro states.
