Re: BELGIUM 2016

Why BELGIUM not taking this guy? One of the best singers i know to date. The lyrics of is songs are so powerful with such a deep meaning and has a great rythem. Beligum you got the gold ticket in your hand and you not using it!?!?! why?!?!
listen to is epic song at 8:30 the lyrics of that song are mind blowinggggggg


Does he want to? I doubt it. But if he agreed, this would be my absolute number one! He's a genius!

I can recommend this interesting video from the "Overthinkingit" channel:

"What's the pressure" keeps growing for me.
Go Laura! xyaay

Earlier this week, Laura Tesoro premiered her new summer tour and simultaneously performed in Belgium for the last time before leaving to Stockholm. Mira and I went to see her and while we were there decided to record our thoughts for the Eurovision Division podcast. We also ask Laura Tesoro a few questions about the other contestants. Because we recorded on our phones, the audio quality is a bit dodgy, but everything should still be understandable.

You can listen to our interview with Laura Tesoro on Soundcloud or on YouTube, and you can subscribe to keep up with us on iTunes or Stitcher.

I am in real danger to like "What's the pressure" even more than it deserves as a song, just because Laura is so beautiful. :confused:
Shame on me, it's a song contest and not a beauty pageant. Hmm, starting to realise what the term "guilty pleasure" means... :oops:
Anyway, I will give some of my votes to Belgium in semi 2 because I would like to watch the performance in the final on Saturday. Good luck, Belgium! xrose

Love me some intense music theory haha xup

This one has now overtaken the other disco-funk track in this years contest for me (Finland in case you were confused). With a strong performance it could do well, but I doubt that it will reach the heights of crazy Loic's entry from last year!

So [MENTION=14505]Lupus[/MENTION] was correct about it being too early to pick a favorite 5 weeks ago. :)

This song has grown so much for me and I love it very much. :D Laura Tesoro just became my favorite after slowly ranking up on my list the past weeks. xyaay xheat
If this does not qualify will I be devastated, because this is the perfect entry for someone like me and because I want to have the sickest dance party in the arena during the final xlove

I've seen the rehearsal.
It seems that the choreography is the same of the video, which is good.
Laura is a nice and sleek performer, but we already knew that.
I'm not so sure about the backdrop. Maybe they should have sticked with the video on that aspect, too.
I think that it won't reach Loic's placement, but it won't be too far from it either. A top 10 in the final is deserved.

That rehearsal was awesome. Both the show and her singing. This combined with her draw and the song being memorabele should really secure a spot in the final.

I didn't expect this, but now on the big stage Laura turns out a pleasant surprise. :eek: The Belgians really have developed a knack for doing so. Go girl, chalk up another top ten for your country! xcheer

Laura Tesoro just replied to my question and liked some of my comments. So I am sitting here being feeling starstruck while playing her song on loop.
OMG! This feels phenomenal xfaint

This could have been a real car crash disaster but they really pulled it off wonderfully :cool:

It captures the carefree joyful attitude of the song without coming off as tacky. Laura looks and sounds great and she moves really well too xqueenbitch

I watched the rehearsal video, Laura absolutely slayed! The infectious energy has really carried over from the Belgian final, the staging was great and the choreography was dead on. I think this could earn Belgium a spot in the final!
