OMG! Good news! "Skeletons" was my number one back in 2017 and it's my second favourite entry by Azerbaijan! Excited!
So, I assume.. It will be in English again?

Re: AZERBAIJAN 2019

I'm glad Isa is the composer of their new entry, as I loved "Skeletons". I just hope the lyrics won't be too embarrassing if Sandra Bjurman happens to be the lyricist once again: "X My Heart" was horrendous in this regard imo.

By the way, I hope [MENTION=6742]Bakinka[/MENTION]'s efforts in this thread will be rewarded, it has to be Chingiz :mrgreen:


Here are the potential entries:

AZERBAIJAN 2019 - Chingiz - "My Big Bone (Skeletal Remix)" xthink

AZERBAIJAN 2019 - Chingiz - "Xposed (Overly SeXy Version)" xthink

AZERBAIJAN 2019 - Chingiz - "Black Hole (feat. [MENTION=11002]EscTurkey[/MENTION])" xthink

AZERBAIJAN 2019 - Chingiz - "Want A Piece Of Me? Then Come To Zaddy (feat. [MENTION=4391]PashonFrut[/MENTION], [MENTION=4377]AlekS[/MENTION] and [MENTION=16481]BorisBubbles[/MENTION])" xthink

AZERBAIJAN 2019 - Chingiz - "Baby Bakinka (Cute Love Song)" xthink


Sorry for the questionable innuendos, but this is the vibe I got from the comments posted here so far. :lol: And fans need to be given what they want anyway, right? :D

Re: AZERBAIJAN 2019

I really hope they reverse the trend this year and come back to the top 10. Azerbaijan has given us some great entries from 2008 till 2013 and they deserve to do much better. Isa composing the entry is already a good sign. Good luck!

Re: AZERBAIJAN 2019

Samra-Miracle is maybe my most listened track of the decade (it somehow still made its way to my Spoify top 10 of 2018 lol, what a timeless bop)
Then Skeletons was my ultimate favourite of 2017.
X my heart was a big NOOO, but everyone can make a mistake once.
This year I’m ready to give Chingiz my first 12 of the year (and my heart too hehe xrose)
I’m so hyped. As LIAMOO&Hanna would say: Baby don’t let me down, don’t let me, don’t let me, don’t let me down. xheat

I agree with this. Azerbaijan are at their best when they don't try to make a hit and just try something a bit different and ethnic. Last year for me was the worst entry they ever sent.

For people with a lobotomy, perhaps.

Well people are allowed to have different tastes without being called lobotomized...
I loved Dilaras song prior to the contest, but the performance was really lackluster and the accent (that came from absolutely nowhere, makes me almost think someone else sang the studio version, but nevermind..) really put me off sadly.

Nonsense. We must all bear witness to the consequences of airing our bad taste on open message boards, without exceptions. It's only the natural cycle of internet life.

I loved Dilaras song prior to the contest, but the performance was really lackluster and the accent (that came from absolutely nowhere, makes me almost think someone else sang the studio version, but nevermind..) really put me off sadly.

That song was anemic and hopeless from the get-go, it simply took you until the live performance to realize it. "Start a fire" is and has always been a musical lobotomy and in terms of artistic, lowtempo "Classy" ballads, there is a myriad of better options to be found in 2014 and elsewhere.

So no, I will not let you enjoy "Start a fire". You should not needlessly punish yourself by glomming onto the Dilarae of this world, simply because they exist. Don't do this to yourself. You are a beautiful human being and deserve so much more than merely mediocrity. Aspire for higher. Dare to be more than what you think you are, because you are worth it. LOVE THYSELF. xrose

This message also applies to fans of "Sister" btw.

Re: AZERBAIJAN 2019

Okay, off-topic question discussion time: People throw the term "masterpiece" around all the time and like... why even? I do not understand. Does that make you feel better when you can slap a "masterpiece" label on any remotely "artistic" ballad that tickles your fancy? I don't know. "Start a fire" is way too boring and safe to earn any distinctive title, but cling to its conventional blandness if you must.

Personally I very much disagree with the entire Salvadorian narrative that music either has to be stripped down to its barest essentials or has to be Bohemian Rhapsody in order to be Quality. Music and the enjoyment thereof is highly subjective but I don't feel better than anyone else for liking or hating certain entries. For instance, I think "LoveWave" is a top 5 song for the 2010s; but I also think the same of "Round and Round". Is the former a masterpiece that's TAKING OVER ME? Maybe. Is the latter just a fast-food song you play on repeat? Perhaps. But both offer precisely what I want in the form of brilliant melody, visually stimulating show, emotional attachment and impromptu bedroom karaoke, despite being each other's fundamental opposite. They're both god tier for me because they provide me with infinite entertainment and that's #MyTruth.

At least your self-confessed love for ethnic turkish flute noises indicate that you probably like "1944". xrose. I thought "1944" was a bloody amazing entry and deserving winner, despite of the narrow-minded, disproportionate hatred it gets from the Eurosnobs for daring to sound different than what western traditions indicate music should sound like.

Azerbaijan definitely deserve props for having strayed away from the beaten track in 2015-2016-2017 and hopefully they'll do the same this year.

[MENTION=16481]BorisBubbles[/MENTION], why are you so aggressive here on forum, many of your posts scream with "I wanna fight"? Seriously, relax and learn people have different opinions.

Yes, her English was really off putting, but her Azeri version of Start a fire was very nice and I am sure she was more comfortable with that version, but anyway.
