Re: BELGIUM 2016

indeed everything after Loic will be less good. But why can a country like Sweden bring every year excellent songs and we don't, sometime I don't get it...

Main reason I think is because Eurovision is popular in Sweden an absolutely not in Belgium. In the days Eurovision was still popular here (2002,2004,2006) we had several good songs in our preselection imo.

But I give tonight a chance (Read as: my only hope is Tom)

ok that's true but with the concept being used now, you can't make it popular IMO.
Well yeah we had some good songs in the past, but they didn't always win...

The most promising snippet was also Tom for me, we'll see

Eurovision is not popular in Belgium ? I thought that TV rating was really good in 2015 no ?

Offcourse the figures were good, but that was mainly it is on our main channel...
What the problem is here is that the majority is alone for gay people who likes show, dance and East European bloc voting

If you try to explain than that Belgium was 4th in 2015, Sweden won in 2012 & 2015, Denmark in 2013,... they don't know what to say.
And also the Flemish results are way worse than the Walloon

Re: BELGIUM 2016

The stream is working :D

Judging by the snippets I like Tom and Adil. More into Tom.

Re: BELGIUM 2016

Amaryllis - not total disaster. Much better than her Euphoria performance. Weak song, not flawless vocals but surprisingly it works together better than expected.


LMAO.
"Did you cum?" (c) (said before some judge compared it to an orgasm that didn't appear)

Something that we all secretly expect from our selections.
Belgian NF will break all records by awkward quotes.

Adil - I like his song but gosh he looks creepy while staring at the camera like that. Also better than I expected.

Re: BELGIUM 2016

At least we have a good jury today who say what people think. No orgasm-song yet ;)

Laura... I believe many Belgians have just thought "F*ck, just 2 songs left. We're screwed :? "

Re: BELGIUM 2016

question for the native speakers: can you actually say "everybody aches"? That sounds so weird to my ears....

Re: BELGIUM 2016

remembers me of lithuania 2014 at a certain moment....
no, this is also not my cup of tea. she's weak vocally and the song is utterly boring.

I wanted to ask the same question..but hey, at least doesn't sound like a cliche, which is great for this contest.

By the way, I feel like she is is singing about lupus and anemia.

Astrid - the song goes nowhere and I agree with Beverly that it sounds underproduced.
