Re: BELARUS 2019

I'm glad Belarus keeps its current format.
Despite some shaky vocals, ALEKSEEV deserved better.

Belarus is usually hit or miss for me. Curious to get to know if I can find another bop in its upcoming national final.

Re: BELARUS 2019

Really liked ALEKSEEV's song, but his vocal performance destroyed it for me unfortunately. :? I am curious about the upcoming selection as well.

How dare no one tell me that this exists and is possibly representing Belarus at Eurovision. That final chorus.. oh my gosh. Hands down my favourite potential Eurovision entry I've heard so far this year. It's insane in the best possible way. So dramaticxheat I LOVE it.

Re: BELARUS 2019

Are there more Songs? Or just these three for now? The first two are terrible … and I Still Love You - Mariah Gregory is acceptable, but gives me no "Wow!"-effect - like it does to Rainywoods. :mrgreen:

This song bringing more drama than anything witnessed on this forum yet. Only Belarus could send such a song. I hope she keeps that hot Cleopatra look from the video for when she sings in Tel Aviv.

That mid chorus key change during the finalexheat Mariah Gregory teaching everyone how to power ballad correctly at Eurovision. It's immense. Belarus has to send this or I will sue.

You can indeedxyes I think I Still Love You is one of the most dramatic ballads I've heard from any Eurovision selection ever. It's got such a foreboding magnificence to it. It's dark yet bodacious. Gosh, soooo good. Every time I play it I get shocked. That chorus is super heavy and the vocals are just tremendous. Amazing!

"Magnificence" is the perfect word to describe this unique song! I listen to it on endless repeat now. To me it is the best song of ESC released so far.absolutely wonderful vocals, dramatic, emotional, upbuilding … well and magnificient. :p Can't wait to see how the song will be performed live on stage!

Have you ever followed Belarus' selection before? It's quite something. They have televised afternoon auditions. Auditionee after auditionee is plonked on stage and sometimes people are cruelly thrown off after about 20 seconds of singing. It's nerve-racking to watch. I don't know what's happening this year though.

I haven't seen it … and it sounds like I don't want to! :lol: Poor people who just get a few seconds … can't imagine what it must feel like. :?

Well if you can't sing nor have better-than-utterly-horrible song then what's the point of wasting whole 3 mins on you, the others are waiting. It's not like you'd qualify to their nf or to esc. Talentless people get filtered just like they should've been before even coming there (I guess everyone can come there, right?).

The "who cares" rule is totally on point imho. Especially if watching/listening to these people hurt and they are more than 50% of the bunch.

Maybe I have a different opinion, but I think, no matter how they sing, they should be allowed to represent themselves for 3 minutes. What are 3 minutes? Not much, I think. But okay, the people who take part there, should know before how they will be treated ...

Yeah, it's not like you're going in just to sing karaoke. People have devoted hours of their lives to compose songs especially for this event and should be given the chance to at least have their pieces heard in full. Some songs that sounded promising, great even were stopped in previous years, and you can often see the hurt, disappointment and anger on people faces. Maybe they could pick out songs they believe have potential in advance to avoid humiliating anyone on live tv.

I highly recommend the auditions though to anyone that enjoys crazy, fun things, cause boy do Belarus have some wonderfully eccentric people auditioning each year.

[MENTION=12078]AshleyWright[/MENTION] oh my gosh! You are a saint. I was trying to find that just now but couldn't. The original video of Milla Roz performing the song got hit by a copyright claim and for some reason that one there wasn't showing up. The fact we'll probably never get to hear Dancing in full breaks my heart. At the same time though it makes the enigma of Milla Roz even stronger.

You put it perfectly into words! :p A Little respect wouldn't hurt, no matter how worse someone might sing.

YouTube couldn't handle the amount of views and attention it was getting so decided to block it. That is all part of the enigma that is milla roz, the 47 second snippet leaves us wanting more. I can't wait to hear the next 47 seconds this year.
