RUSSIA 2013 - Dina Garipova - What if

[A-lister]

In Sweden, people were making fun of the Russian singer calling her "Jävla Gris" (f*cking pig) and other rude stuff...

I have never heard ANYONE saying anything like that, stop spreading sh*t !

And what about the SONG??? Everyone talk about her "amazing voice", but no one mentions the actual song... which is the problem here

the song is ok, most of the rest were not better, quite opposite they were hardly listenable.

Well, when I hear people actually praise her SONG (for whatever reason I cannot get) then fair enough, but people seem to only care about her voice... which btw weren't the best either imo.

Yeah, most of the other SONGS were better as this is atleast for me #37 of #39 ... but taste differ.

exactly! tastes differ.

Yes, but would be interesting to see what people hear in the song... it's not "The Voice" afterall it's a song contest... otherwise it could be a karaoke singing talent show, no need in sending original songs if they aren't important for the vote...

it is hard to say but i think that her voice adds some flavour to the song. i don't say that the song is so impressive and great but honestly for me the semi was full of boring songs so i just compared and chose the ok songs
none of the songs will enter my playlist though

The qualification was hardly a surprise, but still I believe, despite her vocal skills, that the Russian entry this year seems somehow constructed.. Far too cheesy..? I didn't like the performance either :s

Constructed is the least thing one can say, there's not a single part of this entry which has soul... it's über-fake.

Well, if you dislike all the songs then maybe I could get you, however I can't agree... there were better songs than this and her voice is conventionally good but nothing special.

not all but most

Well, I can't stay I'm too impressed with this year either, but considering this is in my bottom 5 of all entries this year it's really one of the worst for me

Oh well... as long as people actually like the song and not just her vocals then fair enough...

I completely change my opinion about this song in only 3 minutes. From the started extremely boring to one of my biggest favorites for win. And that was never happened to me till now.

She probably won first semi.

This was really boring although the bracelets really worked well and came on right at the big moment. The lights really stood out and the audience really got into the act with the arm swaying and all.

Oh God, the Disney-ballad spell on you too?? I'm scared...

If it won its semi its a proof of how out-of-touch ESC has become (again)...

Funny that everytime the juries are in here, the contest gets more dated and unattached to contemporary music aswell as local music...

In a way it's kind of good this is in the final. It will eat up some of the votes that were meant for the likes of Georgia and Azerbaijan. I mean, there will be such an amount of rancid cheese, the blind mice won't be able to join on a single chunk.

I do fear for the poor litle things' liver though

A-lister, get out from this thread.
Starting from page 60 , you left 28 same and negative posts about entry. You act like a child, trying to prove to others your own shity opinion

 

[Magizian]

She looked scared (or at least uncomfortable) in last night's performance.

 

[Eurovisionified]

You could be more polite. It's not a beauty contest.

I didn't say those words. Others did. I'm just pointing out.

 

[Smudy]

I just love her voice, it's incredible. She doesn't need backing singers at all! And that moment when they threw the ballons, that gave me goosebumps. Really nice.

 

[Luki]

I was surprised how good Russia was last night... I still don't like the song but I really felt it.
