Australia AUSTRALIA 2020 - Montaigne - Don't Break Me

Just thought it would be cool to see the contest in Sydney you know

 

[Loindici]

Well, considering the size of the SuperDome, it would've been bigger than Eurovision.

 

[ESC94]

To be honest I´m not overly impressed by Australia in ESC yet. The only entry I really liked so far was "Tonight Again", the others were either mediocre and overrated by the juries (Sound of Silence, Don´t Come Easy) or simply horrible (We got Love). This year "Zero Gravity" was somewhere in the middle, better than their entry in 2018 but still not something I´d like to listen to in my spare time.

But hey, I´m an open minded person and maybe they can convince me next year!!

''Sound of silence'' should have won!

 

[ESC94]

''Sound of silence'' should have won!

I really liked the verses and the atmosphere they built, but the extremely repetitive chorus destroyed everything.:?

 

[Citelis]

Imo ''Sound of silence'' is one of the best entries of the decade! Dami Im would be the 3rd best winner of the decade after Emmelie and Loreen but televoting ruined everything!

 

[Loindici]

Dami would be a great winner but Sound of Silence would be an 'ehh' winner because it's kind of derivative. But hey, it's still good!

Question is who wants to do Eurovision after Kate

 

[Edwardian]

I feel that Blink TV and SBS will attract some big names. Kate has shown that participation is not a career killer. I am certain Electric Fields will return. I am also certain that Sheldon Riley (Kate follows him on Instagram) will be one of the 10 contestants. A couple of months ago he said to Delta Goodrem on TV that his dream was to do Eurovision. I would not be surprised if Vera Blue (Celia Pavey) does it. I would imagine that the 16 year old Ruel (Dutch heritage) is on the organisers wishlist. Anyway, it is fun guessing. I have bought my tickets to Australia Decides and can’t wait until Feb.

Delta is my nomination, I'd kill to see her at ESC. The NF last year showed that the fame does not mean anything (hello Courtney and Sheppard)
She needs a killer song like "Wings".

 

[ESC94]

Delta Goodrem would be great, "Lost Without You" ist one of my favourite songs.

When did Delta say that? You think she'd give it a go? She's my top pick from Australia as well
But now that Australia's not doing internal selections anymore, I kinda doubt it :?

 

[Edwardian]

When Delta was SheldonÂ’s coach on The Voice Australia this year (she has also been Alfie ArcuriÂ’s and Celia PaveyÂ’s coach), during one of the mentoring sessions she asked him what was the plan/dream?. The problem is that the Voice Australia starts filming circa March even though the live shows donÂ’t start until after Eurovision has started. The promos looking for contestants for next year have already started on TV. She has been a coach since it started, circa 8 seasons ago, so I think she probably wouldnÂ’t do it. I would also like to see her give it a crack though.

That's amazing!

The first 2 acts were revealed today for Australia Decides 2020 by SBS
https://escxtra.com/2019/11/07/sbs-announce-the-first-two-acts-for-australia-decides-2020/

Casey Donovan (Australian Idol season 2 winner)
Vanessa Amorosi (best known for "Absolutely Everybody")

I'm freaking out, I love Vanessa! I have a copy of her album "The Power"

 

[Ana Raquel]

Casey performed on the NF as a interval act I suppose

And I also like this

I hope Amorosi go towards this style

but her last song is this

 

[FRFanESC]

I hope they'll bring an amazing show like last year but I'm very confident, they know what they have to do. This year' season season was so good, I really loved "Zero Gravity" (my favorite from the beginning) and, of course, "2000 and whatever".

 

[Citelis]

I hated ''2000 and whatever'' so much.

 

[ESC94]

Wow!! I really loved "Absolutely Everybody" as a child!! Hopefully her entry will be something like this!!

 

[opinionsigotem]

Absolutely Everybody has endured as one of my fave underrated pop songs for nearly two decades so I am overcome with joy at this.
