No, I don't like it at all. BQL was robbed once again, although their last year attempt was better. Hopefully they don't come back because the rig is ridiculous, they will never stand a chance to win. :2:

YAY my number 2 won! :D

This is “a killer” performance!

I’d keep it in Slovenian language, but if she decides for English, I will understand..

12 in the poll

TBH I think Lea might have just overtaken Madame Monsieur as my number one.
 

Hele.

All I have to say about Slovenian selection this year is: Hvala, ne!
Moving on onto next one
(additional comment: hopefully BQL finally will stop being robbed. Despite, significantly worse song then previous attempt. But it is just sad that willingness of Slovenian televote is so ignored. :( :()

I think that she sung in the end of the song “Hvala ne” in Portuguese!!! Isn't she? :D

I didn't follow the NF so can't be disappointed about a fave not winning but I do like this song, like I guess that's the very first one when I'm saying "I want to listen to it again" at first listen. I wasn't expecting so much from Slovenia (sorry guys), even when it was hyped (2015) I didn't like the song but I really like this one !

I was watching the video where she performed after winning and it seemed to me that she was saying ''obrigado, não'' but I thought I was going crazy :lol:

Bless her xlove I remember her cover of ''Amar pelos Dois'' in Your Face Sounds Familiar, she actually made it to the news here in Portugal, maybe those journalists will remember her and share the news that she's going to sing for Slovenia in Lisbon ;) So far I've only seen news in the main journals about the songs from France and Italy

This song grew a lot in my after seeing her performance, Lea is very engaging and very pleasant to look at. It was easy for her to come across aggressive because of this song but that doesn't happen at all! I really want to see this do well in May but she's in a tough semifinal we'll see! Good luck!

Let us not forget that Lea Sirk was part of THE GREATEST BACKING VOCAL TEAM IN ESK HISTORY


That choreo xheat

Just some random thoughts I had yesterday while watching EMA:

Whoever thought Vid Valič would make a good host, should be fired immediately.
Andrea Andrassy! xlove
Andrea actually speak better Slovenian than most people from Ex-Yu countries, who live here for 40 or more years. Shame on them!
Piščanec xrofl3
Raiven can put any hair colour on her hair and wear anything and she'll still be able to look good!
I don't mean to be rude (epecially beacuse I like Raiven very much), but they couldn't find a better hosting couple.This year big noses, next year big ears, perhaps? :mrgreen:
Lea! xlove
There's something so special about Indigo that makes me like song more and more with every listening.
Nope, don't like Ina Shai.
Come on, BQL, why the English verison when Slovenian was so good? xfacepalm
I want to have Marina's curls!
Good thing Lara ditched her tiara, shame that she's still dressed as a circus tent.
Proper... Soooo, how much did the singers daddy pay for them to qualify into the final? x0s
Nuška's song sounds like something that Anja Rupel didn't include into any of her 90s albums. Oh wait, it was actually written by her. Makes sense now.
Can we cancel everything and just send Raiven to Lisbon, por favor?
Yup, it's visible all the way from Moon that Raiven feels better as singer than as host.
Why is Maja Keuc wearing a sparkling Adidas tracksuit?
And now it's time to see how Slovenian teenage girls will bitch on social media about juries screwing up BQL again.
Okay, good jury votes, now let's just hope the televote doesn't completely screw Lea.
*Me on my phone, talking to my mom, before announcement of 72 televote points* No, mom, Lea has won despite BQL winning public vote. Just do the math!
Queen Lea! xlovexlove
Indigo should've been higher.
Proper should've been lower.
Overall, I'm very, very, VERY happy with winner. Go Lea! And while you're in Lisbon, make sure you try Pastéis de Belém. #travellingtip :mrgreen:

Haha BQL got the same disappointing result as last year... :lol: IOTAP

Well at least Lea Sirk deserved the victory more than Omar Naber! I kinda start liking the song right now... It's nothing I would listen to outside Eurovision but I think it's an interesting entry for Eurovision! 7 points from me for now...

Lea Sirk is Slovenia's best shot at qualification, as none of the songs in EMA 2018 were guaranteed qualifiers anyway imo.

What they needed was a standout divisive track, not an average pop song that would get forgotten in a heartbeat, and I'm glad they went for the former option. As much as juries messed up last year, they got it right this time and corrected the skewed televoting results for the better.

Slovenia will finally be able to show what it's like to be modern and catchy without sounding like everyone else. People will either love it or hate it, there'll be reactions, and that's the most important thing.

Also, Lea had the whole package: song, vocals, attitude, visuals, dancers, gestures, dance routine, outfit... Everything seemed ready for Eurovision already to me.

In the odds, Slovenia has dropped from 40 to 43 after the results, which seems bizarre to me considering "Lie To Me" is 2nd atm :lol: Anyway, when all the entries are out and the rehearsals start, it'll change for sure.

Keep it in Slovenian, and you're guaranteed a place in my personal top 10. xheart

You guys are in a win-win situation right now:
-you are successful = good for you, it's deserved.
-you flop = at least you sent a worthy act, you've already proved you could flop with a more conventional song anyway, so you should give no f*cks tbh.

Interesting sound and performance, a bit dull in the middle.
I fear SF2 can kill this entry. Anyway, 6 points

The official EMA youtube channel has gone crazy. They add videos and then deletes, at this moment the only videos of yesterday are Amaya and Lea Sirk.

Stupid and irritant to the pain, except the pop part of the song.

Lea and Slovenia can not sell this story to Europe, especially in the II semi-finals.

The song should be rearranged, because kills how irritating , predictable and repetitive
