Re: ARGENTINA | Axel - "Te Voy A Amar" | WV 10 - Warsaw, Poland |

^^Actually I also really really liked your WV02 song which didn't pass the semi xcrazy

Oh yes, I loved that song too (Nadie, right?). Totally underrated song!

You would have more support from me this time Jim, if you chose other song of Axel (Celebra La Vida, Creencias, Un Nuevo Sol...) although the one you chose is good anyway! Good luck!

Re: ARGENTINA | A Possible Comeback Of An Artist For WV 11 |

This is just to remind you, the winner of WV 6, Natalia Oreiro with her song "Cambio Dolor". Enjoy it!

Re: ARGENTINA | Who will be the representative of the country in WV 11? |

Agustin Almeyda will represent Argentina in WV 11 of Reykjavik, Iceland but the official broadcaster of WV in Argentina "El Trece" asks your opinion about Agustin's song. It's not a national final, the broadcaster only wants some opinions. So, the only thing you do is to write here your favorite song. These 3 songs are the nominees to represent Argentina in WV 11:

I spent atleast 2 minutes to each song. So I would say the song #2 is better than another both. It takes attention at the first listening time.

Re: ARGENTINA | AGUSTIN ALMEYDA | WV 11 in Reykjavik, Iceland | Please Say Your Opinion

I did not know that Roberto Bellarosa had a connection to Argentinia. LOL.

En ti is the most dramatic, fast-building ballad from the provided bunch. Its vibe is one that is always going to appeal to plentiful hispanophile allies which might secure a place in the final but will not be enough to equally enthuse neutral players. Judging from past editions one can fairly draw the conclusion the majority of juries tend to reward the more contemporary, radio-friendly entries (whilst virtually ignoring anything out of this scheme). Although there is no song on offer that fits perfectly into the 'contemprary-and-instant-concept' it should be helpful to watch out for the last suggestion, Solo por ti. The main point is reached way quicker here and in addition to it the constant changes of instrumentation and tempo hold the listeners' attention until the end. Also, it undoubtly sounds more like something from the 2010's than En ti (we all know oldies are usually ridden roughshod over in this contest).
Lo mejor is unfortunately the most generic and least authentic effort. It lacks any elements a competitive entry needs to stand out in a big field, i.e. a distinctive melody, individual interpretation, strong hook etc. Even the clear structure seems to place emphasis on its weaknesses rather than creating a coherent picture.

The bottom line is that Solo por ti should stand the best chances to bestow a decent result upon Aregntinia in spite of the fact that my personal favourite is probably En ti.

Are you talking about WV now? Because this is not what I saw happening in WV at all :lol: Most radio-friendly entries fail badly!

Fixing your statement:

Judging from past editions one can fairly draw the conclusion the majority of juries tend to reward the anthemic powerful ballads, the rock/metal songs with a female vocalist in English and the all-female folk bands.

But I do agree, Latin American entries are always underappreciated, because people who are not fan of the genre find them boring or nothing special.

But Jim has only offered three pop ballads interpreted by a male singer in Spanish so all I could do was to compare them which each other and say which one out of these I like most and which one I predict to score the best result. xshrug And many radio-friendly pop songs made it to the Top-10, despite the soft metal occupation. En ti remindeth me of a less mature version of Jim's host entry (after he had won the preciding edition) which ended up in last place.

I didn't say something opposite to that actually, I said in the end that Latin American pop/rock ballads are almost always underappreciated.

Re: ARGENTINA | AGUSTIN ALMEYDA | WV 11 in Reykjavik, Iceland | Please Say Your Opinion

Lo Mejor is my fave :D very catchy for first listening

and Solo Por Ti is also good (cannot decide between these :lol: ) but what happened in last edition, ballad song from a male singer was not doing well in WV,

En ti for me is forgettable,
