No lies here, but I can't get over the fact the dress is not really a dress. Her breasts were moving the whole time. I wouldn't forbid her as her mom, but, idk, and do what you want, but I wonder if she was actually the last one by votes to go through. I guess I don't like dresses being more impressive than the notes.As much as i loathe this song, those final notes were pretty damn impressive. Juries might reward this even more.
The vocal was very good, I think you are looking for faults there. The staging didn't really tell the story which feels a missed chance. But if this is all Raiven's concept without restrictions I respect that.What?
A weak translation of the (beautiful and complex) music video, a clearly very nervous vocal, wrong-side-of-borderline qualification odds BEFORE we knew both of those things were coming, and...a surprise qualification!
Usually when one of my favorites shock-qualifies, they put together some kind of spectacular performance that brings people on board and that I spend the next several years of my life revisiting (GLz, Y; Liu, Monika; Monetta, Valentina; Stamenov, Bojana). Raiven tonight, honestly, did no such thing; I still hold "Veronika" close to my heart but will do so via the studio version.
I'm elated; don't get me wrong. I'm also just...confused.
Really really happy Raiven made it. She had fantastic vocals, but I didn't like the staging that much tbh. I gave her 10 votes yesterday (more than I thought I would). I hope she can surprise in the final!
