Re: UKRAINE 2018

Any speculations about Khrystyna Soloviy taking part in Vidbir? I still think 2017 would've been an ideal moment to send her with a ballad in Ukrainian. But anyway, she released her new song today. I'm absolutely in love with it. It sounds like velvet. Such a beautiful melody and rich production. Would probably need a more pronounced chorus for ESC though.

She would be a great choice, clearly one of the better names in current Ukrainian music, is she interested though?

she has said in many interviews that she isn't interested in eurovision and most contests. maybe Kvinta can try to convince her to join but I would be surprised if she competes :(

Re: UKRAINE 2018

The Erised (or Sonya) and Ivan Navi will take part most def.

Ivan Navi? He's quite good but unfortunately a bit of a one-trick pony sound-wise, and his live singing is weak but could be a decent entry atleast....

Another Sonya that could be a good addition would be Sonya Kay, did she say something?

Oh Gosh no... but no surprise really... Hopefully the juries will ruin him and hopefully Alekseev will steal his televotes...

But we'll see.. maybe he'll have a good entry for a change... but I doubt it

Alekseev "broke up" with Kvinta.
Which means his entry is produced by another composer most def.

Re: UKRAINE 2018

He applied for Belarus.

Not him but Alekseev :lol:

Speaking of. Considering Alekseev's producer is a huge Ukrophobe they had no chances to win here. Calling us nazis in the "best" traditions of Russian propahanda... wondering if certain people explained him that it was a bad idea. I hope so :cool:

During this year they managed to bitch with almost all of their friends.


ps. Shit! I won't see their epic bitchfest with Jamala :lol: :(

Re: UKRAINE 2018

Yurcash confirmed they've submitted their song.

3 out of 4 performers from STB's poll have already applied. Only Anastasia Kamenskih is left.

Jamala said that she wants to see Pur:pur and MELOVIN again. I'm so rooting for Pur:pur :mrgreen:

Maybe even Kvinta has had quarrels with them because of that.

exactly my thoughts LMAO. him going to belarus wont help his career in Ukraine for sure.

Re: UKRAINE 2018

I think Alekseev out from Vidbir, because he know about other BIGGEST star, who wants participate. Like NK (with her aggressive pr-company on the last three month)

I don't remember liking Pur:pur in their previous try, what's up with Jamala's lame taste? Melovin? Pur:pur? O.Torvald? I hope they will limit her influence on the results...

KAZKA and LAUD are very promising names though xclap

Fangirls, Ukrophobes/USSRphiles will supply Belarus and Russia with their 12 & 10 pts in televoting. + his producer will do everything in the staging department in order to hide his weak live vocals.

Is his producer Badoev? I guess not? What did he actually say about Ukraine? Is he Ukrainian or Russian?

I think his producer is Bodnarchuk (if he wasn't changed) but I've never heard anything ukrophobic from him. Though seeing Alekseev performing in Russia exclusively recently and rejecting from participating in Ukrainian NF I guess there's no doubts left about his political views. Honestly I was even a bit surprised to see he is going to ESC (like, how so quickly he could become patriotic? :lol:)

HYPE for NK though xcheer

Re: UKRAINE 2018

Ani Lorak, Loboda and Alekseev will perform on Russian Channel One during New Year's concert (prerecorded I suppose). The most cynical about this is that Alekseev's performance starts right after the Kremlin tower's clock strikes midnight. I guess I won't miss this singer on National Final at all.

Re: UKRAINE 2018

Last year was so dissapointing from Ukraine, I tend to like the Ukrainian entries. Maybe bring back my favourite from 2013: Zlata
would've been amazing to see her again!
