Russia RUSSIA 2018 - Yulia Samoylova - I Won't Break

[tuorem]

Ok, I think I'm on board now. I changed my vote from 6pts to 8pts.

I can't wait to discover what they've concocted as far as staging is concerned.

It's so laughable that this song is last in the Ranking Game
Like people here can't separate music from politics.. There are much weaker entries that deserve bottom places more..

Russia is a sure qualifier.

The Fact that its last doesnt mean it was hated the most, but that it was liked the least. Thats the Difference
The Song itself is not the worst, but Julia is by far the weakest Singer and if this Entry represented Switzerland or Austria it was a sure Non-Qualifier.

But Russia is too strong to be a NQ!

The Country itself probably yes, but the Singer and Song no.

Yes that's what i mean! That Russia can qualify just because being Russia! I agree that singer and song are bad!

lol at Carian liking your comment then

I really really like this song....it is one of the stronger ballads on offer this year.

 

[GermanBango]

The song is actually not that bad ...but her English is tragic and I'm still not sure about her live vocals. It's Russia though and she will easily qualify (Probably Top 3 in the Televoting and something between 8 and 15 with the Juries)

 

[Himan]

I really hope Russia will fail this year. For two reasons.

1. This song is your weakest ever in a really long time
2. If it will end up somewhere in the top 10/15. Then a real desevrved top place feels way weaker than it should be.

We already know : she's gonna be on top of a fake giant mountain with birds, a waterfall some maping with Sergey dancing around and some flames burning. + mapping on her lips, most advanced country technology wise.

For me, it's also a weak song, too mediocre. I tried listening to it often, but no impact at all. As someone said above, there were way better songs that Russia sent to ESC.

 

[Fierro]

I've just listened to "Primadonna" for the first time and can confirm it's the best Russian entry in history.

 

[Franzilein]

I'm sorry, but I really can't stand her accent, it's like Flame Is Burning 2.0. A shame, because I find her Russian songs rather enjoyable.

I actually love this song. It has everything that makes a good song good.

Her accent is distracting, but it's not a deal breaker. Honestly, I thought she was singing "my gasoline descends" instead of "my castle in the sand." In either case, it's not a big deal for me.

 

[A-lister]

I'm surprised that her previous entry was even better than this blandness, and that song was really bad. This one on paper should be better because the production is better, but for some reason it's even more meh and bland. Oh well, it will qualify do to other reasons than the song itself.

I'm so going to laugh hard when Julia will achieve a top 10 placement in the GF. This'll be very similar to a gigantic earthquake and an odd mix between slurs and major disappointment...

Even if it doesn't qualify, this'll surely remain way better than their 2010 and 2011 entries.

Oh, that's what she is trying to sing.
I also understood "my gasoline descends" and didn't look up the lyrics.

 

[Geborgenheit]

Thanks to Russians abroad.

 

[Citelis]

She will qualify but i'm no that sure about top 10 on final!
