Austria AUSTRIA 2019 - PÆNDA - Limits

[gingerale]

Last Detail: it will be sung by a different artist who we are still looking for“

Doris Golpashin confirmed.

I bet that will surprisingly do as well as César last year or a little bit worse. This entry is as magical as Duncan's one in its own way. The only entry so far who provided me a lot of goosebumps.

Please no withdrawal

some drama discussion inbetween shortens the long and boring time until the rehearsals start…. :twisted:

 

[Lindon]

Brain storming:
They expected headwind but were surprised how strong it was and now Rodney Hunter may do the bigger revamp which PÆNDA rejected some weeks ago
Of course I'm kidding.

 

[Soul]

To be honest I somehow expect a revamp now. Maybe with a stronger chorus at the end.

I don't think so. It would ruin the PR strategy of Roman Horacek which is ""Limits" Music, Lyrics & Arrangements, Produced, Recorded, and sung by PAENDA the one woman show.
Of course if she does the revamp alone it would fit.

 

[Ezio]

I wouldn't mind if ORF and Paenda let Symphonix do some magic. Without selling their souls though.

In recent years, inconspicuous songs that I loved, did not qualify, even with more fan support: Slovenia 2012, Croatia 2012, Finland 2017. But then there were also Portugal 2017 and Lithuania 2018.

Netherlands is a real threat in semi 2. They can suck out all of the oxygen for us.

The problem with juries is, everyone knows each other in the industry. But who knows Paenda? It's more likely that Netherlands and other countries with composers and producers, that stick around for many years, get fraternal votes. Most jurors are just delegates and envois of their record companies, you can predict votes based on record company affiliation also. Symphonix in the mix could help with some Vitamine B. I'd like to have more independent journalists and musical professors in the juries instead of singers, composers and label agents.

 

[Lindon]

I was surprised how surprised Robert Kratky was about the end of the song and he dared to say it on air.

 

[sigi]

Omg Drama Queens of Austria. Why should Paenda change anything of the song? The concept is clear and strong as it is.
This reminds me of last year "Cäsar is uncharismatic", "low odds, change the staging", "staing is awful" "eurofans don't like it","last place in the final" etc...

 

[Soul]

I don't think she should change it, but it disappeared from all (?) platforms except YT, so I think it's possible.

It's suspicious. If it's due to technical reasons, I guess it would not have affected every platform. But it's also still on Paendas own YT channel.

Paenda also went completely silent on social media, after literally reposting every IG story after the release.

(Maybe it's nothing but I love speculation.)

OK. It's nothing.

 

[Soul]

Thanks for posting!

I also found it suspucious that she went completely silent on social media...but it's sunday and maybe she just needs a day off.

I was joking!

Drama completed

Ende Gelände.

 

[Sammy]

I just discovered the tear in Paendas face in the last third of the video. 1

Given that the whole video is one single shot this is a remarkable piece of work. I'm getting into the song more and more, but if you look at the rankings, that is rather grim...

 

[Soul]

One of the few positive reactions and I agree with everything she says - I'm just not that sure it will reach the finals

 

[FilipeGolias]

This is just beautiful. So touching and she delivers it pristinely.

Job well done, Austria!

 

[DanielLuis]

I really like this one too. I love the crescendo troughout the song and her voice really brings out the emotions!
And that tear midway through
I don't know how this will do though, it's really hard to predict. The staging will be key. A one-shot approach like the one used in the video could maybe work?
