Re: BELGIUM 2012 - Iris

Just asked 2 people from the VRT who are close to the show.

Both say that 99% sure the show will go on as planned.

Well expect everything, the title of the second song is "Safety Net" or should I rather say "Safe Internet"

When I saw the name "Safety Net", I thought it was safety.net

It's a 3 hour show so I won't be watching it. The results of the televoting will be revealed at the end of the show (about 22:50 CET)

Oh, okay. In the article they didn't specify that. That's manageable

Re: BELGIUM 2012 - Iris

I'm going to encourage people to look the show.

It will only take 15 minutes of your time
20.00-20.15

Results are not important, you'll see it here.
Just look and watch

Re: BELGIUM 2012 - Iris

Who'll present the show do you think?
Could it be Peter Van De Veire & the studio being his talkshow-studio ?

Tonight: Belgium chooses a song for Iris

Tonight, Iris from Belgium will present two songs vying to be the Belgian entry in this year's Eurovision Song Contest. The show will be broadcast right here on Eurovision.tv!

Tonight at 20.00 CET Iris will present two songs for the Eurovision Song Contest in Eurosong 2012: een song voor Iris, a short TV special with Peter Van de Veire as host. Van de Veire will introduce both Iris and her two possible songs to the Belgian audience. Viewers will get to know the 17-year-old Iris through interviews with her and her entourage.

Afterwards the viewers can vote for the song of their choice through televoting. They decide with which song Iris will represent Belgium on the Eurovision Song Contest in Baku.

Remember you can watch the show LIVE right here on Eurovision.tv.

The Songs

Iris will sing the following two songs from which the Belgian people will vote for their favourite:

Safety Net

The first song, Safety Net, is about a young girl that longs for security, in the ever faster moving and insecure world she lives in. She wants to get a grip and feel secure. Eventually, she finds it with someone she knows. From now on, she can trust on her “safety net”.

Would You?

In the other song, Would you?, Iris doubts the sincerity of her lover. She feels that her relationship has reached a certain, crucial point and is wondering what her boyfriend would do if she left him. Would he miss her, like any other boy would? Or not?

The Results

Later that night Iris appears in the TV show Vrienden Van de Veire on Eén. At the end of the show (about 22:50 CET) Peter will announce the results of the televoting and Iris will have a song for her performance in the first semi-final of the Eurovision Song Contest on 22 May. At the end of he show she will sing the winning song live on Vrienden Van de Veire on Eén.

Who is Iris?

Iris is the stage name of seventeen-year-old Laura Van den Bruel. Despite her young age Iris already has a very impressive voice.

As a child Iris sang all day long. She looked up to Beyonce and Kelly Clarkson and dreamed of becoming a singer herself. At first she covered her idols’ songs, but after a while she started to write her own lyrics.

At fifteen Iris was discovered by record company SonicAngel during a local talent contest. She was the best of three hundred participants. With SonicAngel she recorded her first single and video clip, Wonderful, and came another step closer to realising her dream.

In August Iris’s single Wonderful hit the Belgian charts. Iris performed on several Belgian radio stations and was discovered by an increasing number of music lovers. In May Iris will represent Belgium on the Eurovision Song Contest in Baku.

Re: BELGIUM 2012 - Iris

I usually stop eating at 12:00, so at 23:00 I eat a lot

but in 2010 when Tom was in final, I think I didn't eat for a whole day

Just hope for at least one good song, want to see my little country back in final

I know what you feel.
It didn't happen this time in my own country national final. But I was a bit more nervous in Melodifestivalen time.
And this year the envelope opening will kill me (because Estonia is between going to final and not)

I hope Belgium will do a great choice. I totally forgot how those two songs sounded like
