Re: BELGIUM 2016

I like all of them for different reasons, 5 contemporary songs that could reach the final, I think (yeah, I know, we know basically one song but stil XD)

Re: BELGIUM 2016

Those snippets sound so meh. What a let down. I hate the sound of Laura's song, so sadly I'll have to bin my support for her and start backing Tom who had the most decent sounding snippet. The other 3 are just lost causes and if the Belgians have any sense none of those 3 will win.

Re: BELGIUM 2016

Amaryllis: Modern 70s popish song, but a little repetive. No, She must be out.
Tom: Good song, A little Coldplay over it, nice snippet, looking forward to hearing it in full!
Astrid: Not what I expected, but rather nice and different. Alicia Keys goes electronic I should call it. Cool, but maybe a little too edgy to work for the public?
Laura: Also 70s discopop with a nice vibe too it. Don't think it can qualify with this though.
Adil: This song was the hardest to judge on the snippet. It does sound promising, modern, feels meaningful, but in the same time very unsuitable for his voice. Might have to see this live to judge this.

So looks like it will be a heads up between the guys, and I put my money on Tom for now. ;)

Re: BELGIUM 2016

Yay. Astrid was my favourite from the last show and her song does sound the best from here, so I had the right inkling. :D Although I don't think any of these are very promising tbh. And for some reason I just can't stand Tom. :? But we'll see.

Re: BELGIUM 2016

WOW, such awful songs - it looks like Belgium will definitely stay in the semi final!

Re: BELGIUM 2016

nothing amazing but nothing totally dire imo. i'd be happy with either tom or adil winning as long as their live performances are good.

Re: BELGIUM 2016

Tom's song is the best by far in my opinion. But anyway I cannot see good live performances of anyone taking part in Belgian National Final.

At least I can see Tom's song in the Grand Final, but yes, with enough neighbours in his semi :D

Re: BELGIUM 2016

VRT could improve its selection process because... this is incredibly awful => No qualification for Belgium, I don't see any songs scoring a great score.

Absolutely true. Awful songs (according to the snippets) + boring and strange selection process...

Re: BELGIUM 2016

Come on Tom's snippet is very promising in my opinion. I like that One Republic vs Coldplay vs Dotan vs Bastille style.

Haha that's not the point - I'd love to see all three countries coming up with really good songs! :) But it doesn't look like that will happen...

Haha very strange line of reasoning. Don't think a previous entry has something to do with the choice of a new entry. And even then, its even more logical to say that after a year with a strong entry next years entry is going to be less strong, if you just reason logical :p

Re: BELGIUM 2016

It wasn't meant to be any kind of reasoning. I just wanted to say that those 5 song are really underwhelming after Loic!
