Austria AUSTRIA 2022 - LUM!X & Pia Maria - Halo

[escYOUnited]

Let me be your halo
'Cause we've been through hell and back in only one night
Let me be your halo
'Cause heaven can't wait for us to finish the fight

We don't need a Hercules to bring a man down to his knees
No more apologies
Philosophers like Socrates define yourself, think on your feet
Go sharpen your teeth

We can be CEO
Yeah, you already know
Yeah, we can be the boss
Fly higher than the Gods
We're not under control
And no, no, not anymore
If you feel me, then put your hands up

Let me be your halo
'Cause we've been through hell and back in only one night
Let me be your halo
'Cause heaven can't wait for us to finish the fight

And I'm stronger than angels
I'm fearless in danger
And I will bring dark to the light
Let me be your halo
'Cause we've been through hell and back in only one night

I think I had the right idea
Beautiful, something to feel
For a hundred years
We're gonna be written among the stars
Posing so we're hustling young queens

We can be CEO
Yeah, you already know
Yeah, we can be the boss
Fly higher than the Gods
We're not under control
And no, no, not anymore
If you feel me, then put your hands up

Let me be your halo
'Cause we've been through hell and back in only one night
Let me be your halo
'Cause heaven can't wait for us to finish the fight

And I'm stronger than angels
I'm fearless in danger
And I will bring dark to the light
Let me be your halo
'Cause we've been through hell and back in only one night

La-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la
Don't need no
La-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la

Let me be your halo
'Cause we've been through hell and back in only one night
Let me be your halo
'Cause heaven can't wait for us to finish the fight

And I'm stronger than angels
I'm fearless in danger
And I will bring dark to the light
Let me be your halo
'Cause we've been through hell and back in only one night​

Eberhard Forcher states this song has received positive feedback like no other. Well, this may help us lick our wounds later....

I think you guys are qualifying. I'm so nervous, I can't even think straight. I just want Maro to go through and I'll be happy. But I would like to see Austria qualifying as well.

 

[Ezio]

Today is the last day of Jupiter in Pisces. I hope it doesn't screw up our chances. With all the Pisces and Taurus energy at the moment, Halo might look awkward.

Your astrological predictions hardly ever end up accurate though.

Your astrological predictions hardly ever end up accurate though.

The were spot on in 2017 and 2018.

But this year is way more fluid with Jupiter on the cusp between the calm Pisces and wild Aries.

The pre-show raking is no real ranking though. It's just a presentation of 10 songs of the semi final. And in most occasions they leave most of the good/ more interesting song for the final,

 

[Ezio]

Odds are getting worse. We must prepare to go home.

We jumped from 10th to 9th

We jumped from 10th to 9th

We drifted from 56% to 48% before, now its 51%

 

[EscGeek]

Me right now

From Surprise Jurywinner to 3 NQs in a Row..

 

[cegs5]

Too bad this didn’t work live, whoever had the idea of that staging should be sued.

At least we have the stufio version to enjoy.

From Surprise Jurywinner to 3 NQs in a Row..

"Undo my sad" really fits very well now.

I never ever expected this result. qualifying at the same time?? Together with ?

 

[GermanBango]

Oh well … singing lessons might help.

 

[Ezio]

OK, that was an expensive flop. ORF might come back with something completely generic and bland next year or pull out completely, since the Eurovision team had their last chance with the new governorship at the broadcaster.

The staging didn't really convince me. It was very static and I can see how juries hated it.

The decent rallye in the odds suggests we were between 5th and 10th in the televote.

 

[Lindon]

Oh well … singing lessons might help.

I don't think so.

Like last year, when each and every bop qualified, and we had a ballad that was 10th in the odds.

This year, each and every ballad qualified, and we had a bop that the juries must have hated. Pia Maria sang well, but looked in pain, and she had better hair in the rehearsal.

 

[GermanBango]

I don't think so.

Maybe she should stick at what she’s good at. Singing clearly isn’t her strength. If you are bad at least be iconic while doing so.

 

[Grinch]

Everyone and their mothers were shaking their asses to Halo

 

[Ezio]

Oh well … singing lessons might help.

I have heard way worse than Pia Maria tonight. I don*t know why you are so obsessed with her vocals out of all candidates tonight. She kept up with the pace, sounded a bit nervous in the beginning. The staging kinda sucked. It felt kinda WTF-ish in the sea of decent ballads.

Jupiter is a bitch also. In a few hours, it enters Aries and people would become sick of all the ballads.

 

[Realest]

Curious to see the Jury/Televote-Split here.
