[Sean]

Hmm wikipedia says that a new version of 2009 was recorded for Eurovision, but I'm watching the NF performance and it's the same :?

I could have sworn 2009 had a revamp

 

[Odalis]

The last year Lanskaya said right away "I will change the song if i find something better".
So she did, TEO has no intention to do so.
FYI, "Rhythm Of Love" was written by TEO/Yuri Vaschuk that's why i'm supportive of him this year, his song was supposed to be at ESC the last year

I hope for a revamped version of the song and a spectacular show from TEO in Copenhagen.

Minsk 2015 for the win!

 

[Avalon]

Quite a nice song

LOL against all Eurovision rules

switter boys and lorens got the same 56 points from juries, but switter got 7 and lorens 8, but should be otherwise by rules so it wouldn't be 20 points tie and TEO clearly won

Well, if we followed Eurovision rules, then Lorens should've won because in real Eurovision televoting is over random hearts given by jurors in case of tie, you know....

Well, in Croatia six years ago, Kraljevi Ulice and Antonija Šola also had the same number of points, but because of the "Dora" rules where is written that in that case the word of jury has more strenght, Kraljevi went to Belgrade. But I think that here is not the case.

And it's only to me suspicious that Nuteki got 10 points from the televote and a big 0 from the jury? Because the jury maybe were voting after the results of the televote.

I need to put this in a new post:

Max Lorens and Didyulya submit appeal to president against results of national selection

They highlighted that they have won the televoting getting 42% more votes than Teo and 8 jury members have blatantly ignored the opinion of people.

They also noted, that jury was not working in full line-up (head of jury, representative of BTRC couldn't attend the show) and that they have apparently been voting after seeing results of televote.

Lenta.ru:

Not to put some humor in this, but I guess we can say that the cheesecake has gone bad...

I think it also was in the Belarusian selection rules, that in case of a tie, the jury has more power but I'm not sure.
My Russian knowledges are not good enough and I translated it with Google Translator

I don't think either song would do well (not that it matters because it will get changed in any case) but at least I like cheesecake, the other song is just a boring song. Its one of those songs that you could have heard in a croatian NF a few years ago and thought 'oh another one of these'

I know it's early but let's have a closer look at that Cheesecake and how it is doing in the ranking compared to previous songs.

1. 2012 = 6.35
2. 2013 = 5.88
3. 2011 = 5.64
4. 2014 = 4.91
5. 2010 = 3.92

So based on the current ranking, TEO ends up in fourth place which is not too good considering none of the entries ranked particularly high. 'We are the heroes' is still considered one of the best entry of the 10s....That's unless Cheesecake will get a sudden boost (or they'll change the song completely)

 

[GWTW1939]

Well they failed to qualify in 2012 but did in 2010 so doesn't really matter what people here think does it

 

[doctormalisimo]

This will probably be the catchiest ESC entry of the year.

They did much better with Albania where the two non qualifying entries were also the bottom two according to our poll. With Belarus....not so much!!!

You mean nails on a black board catchy?

End of drama in Belarus.

I hope they add the girl from the MV to the ESC, the performance is just dull without her
