This was supposed to be my first zero of the season. But she's a quite good performer, so it wouldn't be fair and I gave 1 :D

Well all I can say at this moment is if they can transform Roberto Bellarosa into a 12th place finisher then I'm not ready to write off Laura or her song just yet :cool:

And they have an easier job now, because this song is a looooot better than that absolute piece of rubbish called "Love kills" and Roberto had zero voice and charisma, unlike her. Still... :?

They chosen this over Tom?? Her singing is awful for ears, even amateur like me can see it. + Song is not good either. Huge downgrade, I agree. It is not that Tom would continue where Loic stopped but I believe he would be fair qualifier for the final. With this, I'm afraid Belgium will sit out from final this year...:(

Awful choice and she is quite annoying. The song goes nowhere. At least Uk won't have the worst song. (Hopefully)

The song is... Well, I wouldn't listen to it casually, seems like not many would. But I'm glad Tom didn't win. (The performance was bland and the song is generic 101. I reaally didn't get the hype around that. It may seem like the best of the bunch song-wise, but it isn't that great at all. I'm supposed to like these sort of soft-rock songs, but I can't stand listening to that song for more than a few seconds, because I'm so unimpressed and bored, definetly didn't reach what it intended to) Anyways, that's in the past now... Laura is an alright choice. At least she has the confidence, charisma and attitude as a performer to make it interesting and give the illusion of a good song. But as I've said, that alone won't save her in Stockholm. It definetly isn't bad, though. Just mildly annoying and unenjoyable, but at least not boring. :D

Woaaaaah where is all this hate coming from? xfaint I love it, really fun song with a catchy hook! I'm not gonna predict how it will do in Stockholm just yet but I wouldn't rule it completely out.

You know.........Deep down I knew :be: would screw this up. This is like the third time that my personal favourite and least favourite had to battle in the final and apparently the worst one always wins.
After Melanie beat timebelle :ch:
After PKN beat Satin Circus :fi:
Now Laura beats Tom :be:

But to defend this bland piece mediocrity I will repeat everybody else..........She's a decent performer. To bad she will probably only perform once in the Semi's ;P

It's fine. Not particularly convincing or powerful but fine.

Meh. Belgium cannot send two great songs in a row it seems. The song is not that bad though.....5 points.

Why not this? :(

Laura has a strong voice. I saw some performances of her before and she sounds promising. I hope she has a song that is worth to show her voice on the stage at Eurovision.

Boy, can Laura perform. She can command the stage, she has a fantastic voice, she knows how to communicate with the camera, her dancers are great. She made that Guy Sebastian meets Bruno Mars song that we've all heard a million times sound fantastic. I can only say good things about Laura. Heck, I bet her farts sound good, that's how much I love this singer.

I can't really say too many good things about her song though because it's essentially a garden variety "radio hit" that you hear in cutesy clothing stores. Laura deserves a better song, but as I said earlier, she can make any song sound good.

Yet another song that neither excites nor offends me. I gave it seven points but I might have been too generous. It seems less bland than the other two and I gave the other songs six points, so I added one point. Of course, it's not a winner.
