Australia AUSTRALIA 2019 - Kate Miller-Heidke - Zero Gravity

[HayashiM]

Can't remember Samantha Jade being part of it

Nah, Australia did a great job 2015 to 2018 (songs wise)... but the 2019 entry is utterly horrendous

Couldn't disagree more I did like Jessica as a person last year, but god that song was horrible, superbasic lyrics, superbland melody. Zero Gravity is the first song from Australia I actually like.

I cant believe that is a Non-Qualifier according to the Betting-Odds.

 

[Preuss]

It goes up and down
I swear that I saw Georgia as #1 to qualify yesterday or something

Like Serbia right now is on 2nd position in the SF1 odds but 37rd position in the overall odds. I guess not many are betting on the Semis right now.

I can't believe either. Despite her songs which stands out I find her charismatic and If her dress will be anything like in the NF her image will be used a lot in online/offline media. Like someone pointed out she also has a lot of meme potential along with Hatari, Conan, Roko, Tulia and maybe Bilal.

I spoke to Kate and I sent her all support that I could. I also showed her my avatar on a Serbian ESC website, and it's basically her own minipop I told her that there is only one artist that is getting my full support and this minipop shows who that artist is.


I really felt from her words how much this meant to her and she didn't hide it. It also meant a lot to me as well because I know that she is super busy and yet she still managed to find the time and respond to what I sent her.


I also gave her some advice and told her not to pay too much attention to betting odds (probably the best advice right now ).


With each and every day, I am increasingly more proud because I supported her work from the very beginning and I also supported "Zero Gravity" from the very beginning as well. No matter what happens on the contest, I've let her know that I am supporting her all the way through. But I am optimistic about the outcome regardless of what the odds are saying.

That’s nice of you

No, this will do well
Or I hope so
But I genuinely think they’ll get the staging right this year
Her voice alone should score her some jury points...

Just taking a quick look at her Instagram, it looks like she replies to everyone actually, whether it's a like or a short comment. That's really nice of her!

Kate in Amsterdam... I don't think she's doing any promo at all in Europe though?

I don't have Instagram, I contacted her via another route but if she really replies to everyone, that's super amazing The way she thanked me really showed how much it meant to her and I also really appreciate that she found enough time to do that


I am looking forward to her performance in Amsterdam too

I really loved 'La Voix' but this year's Australian entry is just annoying for me sorry.

 

[Preuss]

I think this might benefit from being a bit further down in the odds than their previous entries where they've been like top 5 going into the rehearsals and then dropped (Guy, Isaiah) or skydropped (Jessica)
And I do expect them to stage this well in Tel Aviv in order to somehow "justify" their participation for Europe

I've in recent days thought that this might do a "Jamala" in the juryvote and at the end do quite well in the juryranking

A Serbian friend was inspired by my message and he also sent her support via Instagram and got a wonderful reply right away


Now, the best thing about it is that he was also a part of the screenshot that I showed her He could've said easily "Miloš already introduced me in his message, now I just want to tell you how awesome you are in person"


I think it's really amazing, I literally told her that my love for everything she does here is spreading among the local community. And now we actually see that in practice. Now I've seen even people who disliked the song go "Hmmm, I might actually give it another chance".


I promised that I will keep her updated with the results from the Expert Panel over here. After all....I had a say in it as well

12 points from Serbia to Australia this year?

 

[Vicious1]

They usually give 12 points to Montenegro, 'cause we're still like one country so.. I don't think it'll happen.

We are like one, i agree, but Hungarian diaspora overvotes us almost every year
I will bother people around me to vote for Slovenia, my favourite, to give them 12 in semi

 

[Preuss]

"2000 and Whatever" was just picked as Wiwibloggs' NF favourite
It's an earworm I will play on my phone throughout the spring and the summer

Perhaps with a bigger budget which would've resulted in a better staging could've possibly won them the NF

 

[Citelis]

''2000 and whatever'' was probably by far the worst for me and in case Australia chose it would be by far the worst song of the whole Eurovision for me!

I will give my absolute best, that's what I can guarantee The more we give the better
