Re: ROMANIA 2013

Yes, auditions in front of jury. I guess this is a good idea. In this way we will have better singers in the semifinals.

Re: ROMANIA 2013

So apparently televoting will only make 30% of the total vote while the juries get 70%? Why even bother??? Makes no sense to me.

Only in the Final!
For SFs - 50% televoting, 50 % juries.

who told you that? The final is also divided in 50%-50%.
The Grand Final

Saturday, 18th of May, 2013 (21:00 CET)

The Grand Final will be broadcast live in all participating countries. You can also watch the Grand Final online here on Eurovision.tv!

Viewers and professional juries in some 40 participating countries will vote.

Viewers and professional juries each have a 50 percent stake in the outcome. The professional juries will feature six members in each country. The televoting window will be opened after all the songs have been performed.

The running order of the represented countries in the Final will be determined by draw, right after each of the two Semi-Finals.

Re: ROMANIA 2013

I cannot see this a reliable source there, it is cited from the Romanian newspaper 'Adevarul' hahaha and Manoliu doesn't know the rules of the contest obviously. Give me a link form the organisers which says there is a change.

Re: ROMANIA 2013

check esckaz.com

this is also from esckaz in case you did not read the whole article 'Mr. Manoliu (or newspaper) isn't really right, as televote has been prevailing above the jury vote since 1998, and Mandinga was 7th in televoting and 20th in jury vote. Whether he may be unexpectedly right though on upcoming changes and there is some "truth" in "Truth" article, or is it a test of the public opinion on this subject? EBU has not released any kind of information in this regards.

Re: ROMANIA 2013

And from this reason we should send a very good composition with a very good voice. The show loses its importance (at least a big part of it). Manoliu said that we should found a very good voice. I think that we have a lot of very good voices. Our problem is the composition. We don't have composers for this kind of shows. We have very good composers for oldish styles or for too much modern music. I guess we need something between these. Maybe something like Playing with fire is the most dance that can fit the juries taste. I hope Ovi will send a similar song with a good voice this year.

Re: ROMANIA 2013

we'll see :), but how come Romania is the first one from all the countries to know about it?
And I've just seen that they removed the news from Eurovision Romania's facebook page, I think they just realized about their mistake and how stupid that article was.

Re: ROMANIA 2013

Well I just hope you are right, the juries will kill Romania like they did in 90's. :mrgreen: And their votes is more politicall than the televote almoust all the time. I will agree with 100% juries if there will be 100% corectness, but this is relative and the relativity gives the right to each one. So, if the show is made for tv then televoters should have at least half of the right to choose the winner.

I really hope he just got it all wrong, and that he doesn't know stuff we don't know yet. The juries are already doing too much harm already, if they'd have 70% say then it's over and goodbye for ESC I'm afraid.

So is he just talking nonsense or do he know something not revealed yet? I really hope that it's not even on the discussion board... because then we have problems. It's already enough that they stripped away the transparency and fairness of the running-order allocation, if they'd let those small groups of people have even more say it'll be a disaster.. I mean he say it himself that juries hate showy songs, they only care about big voices etc.... so it's not just me and some other critics that have seen through the agenda of the juries to turn Eurovision into The Voice of Europe !

Re: ROMANIA 2013

Alex Mica is the first big name in Romania that will take part in Selectia natonala. The song wasn't revealed yet but he announced 1 hour ago that he is working for song.

He is also known in Europe, especially in Israel, Bulgaria, Greece and Turkey. He can sings well live.

This is his best song.

This song i like the most. Something like this could bring a top 10 at Eurovision.
