BELGIUM 2011 - Witloof Bay - With Love Baby

[seb89]

^ Wow that's quick . I hope they make a good choice!

Where have you found that news?

 

[thms]

if it is the turn of flemish tv to pick an act for 2012.. i would like to recommend isabelle a.. she is a great singer.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tyhg-R3M8A0

 

[Sim]

Flemish broadcaster will be in charge in 2012.
There will be internal selection.

woow that's quick

 

[A-lister]

Frankly, the Flemish are better at this Eurovision thing for sure. Last time I liked a Walloon entry was 1998 I think.

 

[Tristran]

Lol, looks like the Flemish broadcaster doesn't much believe in the Belgian entry this year either. 'Let's move on to 2012 already, shall we?' seems to be the idea here.

Witloof Bay might be disqualified.

Apparently one of the band members in Witloof Bay actually released a demo of 'With Love Baby' on cd/cassette in around 2004. An announcement is expected at 17/18.00 CET tomorrow.

Throw a few millions at Celine Dion and invite her back to Eurovision in 2012. It's either gonna be a smashing win or a trainwreck (Celine Dion not winning a singing competition?! Huh?!).

How is that even a "might"? EBU rules specifically state that if a song has been released prior to its performance at the national final, it has to be disqualified, no exceptions.

It's not a question of "Will it be disqualified?", it's a question of "When will they announce it?".

 

[evilperson]

^This is also a rumour at the moment and nothing is proven, so it is a "might".

 

[jaws]

Well let EBU disqualify it and let VRT pick a new one
We have so many great singers who want to participate. For example Belle Perez and Brahim...

OMG NO!

Btw it's up to the RTBF to send a song and they should send it. It would also be extremely rude if the VRT even might consider it!

 

[evilperson]

I think what I posted was just an unfounded rumour so there is nothing to worry about I guess.

Oh . I don't like it though. I have nothing againts the group, they sing good, they are all nice people and it's a 'Belgian group', but the song isn't really for Eurovision. But I wish them neverthless good luck in Düsseldorf.

 

[Schlagerman1]

Since they are having a press conference, I am sure that it is about a disqualification. That would mean that Sarina, that came 2nd in the NF, will get chosen! Looked at her preformance and if she gets chosen, she takes the spot of being the best song so far IMO!

 

[seb89]

But where have you found that there will be a press conference? There was one today. I have looked on the official eurovision website, eurosong.be, rtbf.be, esctoday.com, deredactie.be, belgovision.com,... and I haven't found info about this press conference. I think it's just a rumour.

Re: BELGIË/BELGIQUE - Belgium 2011

3 pts from me. was not blown away by anything they did, but there is room for improvement

 

[aletem]

It is just a bad rumour spreading around, probably because the song gets a bad publicity.

 

[Fayt]

Not good at all. I try to like it but I just can't stand it... sorry... 0 pts from me.

 

[CiprianZisu]

fayt i was at least trying to be nice haha

 

[A-lister]

Oh pity the disqualification thingy is just a rumor

 

[Norrbotten]

Made my ears bleed... nul points.
