Australia AUSTRALIA 2020 - Montaigne - Don't Break Me

[HayashiM]

Well when you watch nfs you need to be prepared for disspointment. That's the first dissapointment of the season for me!

NF = Disappointment. That's already a definition for me, any pleasant surprise is just a pleasant surprise

 

[slatka]

jaguar was robbed

 

[AliceEsc]

Well, not a bad song, I hope at least they fix the staging..

 

[EscUKFan]

A lot worse could have been chosen, but Montaigne will do, she’s probably my favourite for now (unless Elodie, Diodato or Francesco wins tonight)

 

[EscGeek]

Proud has been avoided, but not a fan of the winner

 

[opinionsigotem]

I hope they don't "fix the staging" by having her just stand there in a big dress because that would be EVEN WORSE than what was presented tonight.

 

[Citelis]

Was one of my least favorites. Probably or

 

[CPV4931]

"Lessions of Love" was my favorite here, so a bit disappointed by the result. "Don´t Break me" was one of my least favorites.

 

[Kitakaze]

What a relief. Now just ditch the clown concept and go for something cooler. Proud was not nearly high impact or original enough and would’ve NQ, so Australia dodged a bullet there IMO.

Welcome back to generic pop guys! Woo-hoo!

RIP spicy Australia (2019-2019)

Four DNA songs in five years, that's what we deserve I guess. You've got your own dream team.

"Don't Break Me" is pretty much the antithesis of what I want and like to see at Eurovision. Way too unseasoned to my palate. I need more flavour.

Where's the poll? I guess 2 points sounds about right: it's not unlistenable.

 

[slatka]

also how did mitch get more votes from the public than jaguar... i-

 

[Kaz]

My disappointment as an Aussie is actually palpable. Especially after we took such a risk last year which ended spectacularly, with Kate’s performance going down in history as one of the most iconic songs and unique staging choices of all time, we choose to send this literal clown. I reiterate from earlier, Don’t Break Me is one of the most mediocre and characterless songs from ESC NF season 2020. I’m going to bed

 

[Daybreak]

This was like the best song in the selection but I'm surprised it actually won! It was so close. They have to work on the staging, though.

 

[HayashiM]

I hope they don't "fix the staging" by having her just stand there in a big dress because that would be EVEN WORSE than what was presented tonight.

I actually enjoy her almost ballet kinda dancing... But the song is just super bland.

 

[AlekS]

Great show. Sucky results. The entry is okay.

I'm surprised they didn't show this ad tho

I hope Dami will come up with a better song than her 2016 effort.

 

[Schlagerman1]

I hope they don't "fix the staging" by having her just stand there in a big dress because that would be EVEN WORSE than what was presented tonight.

No no, that is not what she would do. She has nice ideas with this clown-realness, but the camerawork and the movement needs to rearranged. And I am sure that SBS will work with the Dutch broadcaster to give us an epic performance. We know what they did with Kate, they can do it again!

 

[LastDreamer]

Very predictable winner.
is coming back in 0 / 10 songs zone.

 

[Zonne147]

Yes!!! The best song Australia could pick!!

I have no doubts this was the most interesting song in the line up, but there are things to improve, change that staging and train her vocals...

This is qualifying, but I don't think it has enough TV appealing to fight for the victory

Good start

 

[slatka]

i'm moving back to europe seeya australia have fun with the circus.

 

[Alaska49]

well, once again australia rewards the best performance on stage (second best. justice 4 jaguar) other than the glitch in the matrix where the televote was won by casey and her absolute piece of shit bootleg frozen song with no staging. BIG mistake there, australians. be thankful juries saved your ass.

montaigne really elevated what was a fine but not special song with her performance and left me genuinely happy that she won, not only because casey lost. she is selling it, "you thought i was elastic but maybe i'm just made of glass" is a fantastic line, and there is potential for things to be even more impressive in eurovision. australia made a lemonade out of a very middling lemon that was this AD. 8 points.

also, how hilarious was the absolute batshit reaction to dami im's announcement that she will apply to AD 2021? we basically got the winner of next year before we got this one.
