RIP Anduel and Luna

 

[Sammy]

No Anduel?

 

[Looren]

Well now that we know all the songs...

Duje ftw

 

[mauve]

"Duje" or "Atomike", please!

 

[Mainshow]

I can´t believe they didn´t let Anduel qualify.
His entry "Malli" was miles ahead of all songs tonight.

HOW DID GENT QUALIFY!?!?!?!?! He didn´t hit any notes, jesus.

 

[Sammy]

Actually there is only one logical winner and that is Duje. Also the reaction of the public was pretty clear.

Kudos to Manjola for sticking it out after being sick the last few days and giving a good performance. She is very much an Albanian music legend. lts a tad dated and predictable but still fun at the same time. Ethno hits from the late 00's are usually eaten up by Eurofans.

This has been a strange Fik as so many singers have been astronomically off key to the point where I wondered if something was wrong with the sound. My faves in no particular order are Elsa, Manjola and Rezarta. I think Elsa will win the festival and then Albina landslides the public vote which decides the Eurovision entry.

 

[lasse braun]

"Duje" or "Atomike", please!

i take avantgarde.

I think LYNX could be an outsider with a proper revamp. (I mean Fifi is still considered a strong contender and she definitely needs to change a lot if she goes to ESC so Lynx are at least worth a mention.)
