BOSNIA & HERZEGOVINA 2011 - Dino Merlin - Love in Rewind

[damienn]

All 12 from all ex yu countries this year will go to Bosnia.
Reason: song is great and Dino is one of the most popular singer on whole Balkan!

So Sarajevo 2012!

Reason: all 12's from ex Yu countries Usually goes to a ex Yu country, so that's no guarantee for victory, but I do think it will place high even though I think it's a bit overrated.

All 12's from ex-Yu countries haven't gone to one ex-Yu country decisively since 2007 to Serbia, when Serbia won the contest. So...

Balkan ppl was always delighted with Scandinavian country, and we learn many things from you, and at the end copy your neighboring voting system

I'm getting a bit mixed signals from you 2, one is saying you don't usually give ex-Yu countrys or their neighbours 12s, and the other say that you do based on that you have learned from the scandinavian countrys?!?

Well, let's find out once and for all and base it on some hard facts, shall we?

Bosnia has given their top average score to:
1 Serbia 60 5 12,0 language, neighbour
[ Serbia & Montenegro 34 3 11,3 language, neighbour ]
2 Montenegro 27 3 9,0 language, neighbour
3 Croatia 133 17 7,8 language, neighbour
4 FYR Macedonia 84 11 7,6

Croatia top average score given to:
[ Serbia & Montenegro 36 3 12,0 language, neighbour ]
1 Serbia 54 5 10,8 language, neighbour
2 Bosnia & Herzegovina 149 18 8,3 language, neighbour
3 FYR Macedonia 94 12 7,8 language
4 Albania 63 10 6,3
5 Slovenia 93 16 5,8 language, neighbour

and as a last example, Macedonia has given their avg score to:
1 Albania 113 10 11,3 neighbour
2 Serbia 51 5 10,2 language, neighbour
[ Serbia & Montenegro 30 3 10,0 language, neighbour ]
3 Turkey 107 14 7,6
4 Croatia 90 12 7,5 language
5 Bulgaria 41 6 6,8 language, neighbour
6 Bosnia & Herzegovina 80 12 6,7 language
7 Montenegro 11 2 5,5 language

Now, lets take a look at the scandinavian countrys.

And we'll start with the average that Sweden has given.
[ Serbia & Montenegro 28 3 9,3 ]
1 Serbia 33 4 8,3
2 Iceland 148 25 5,9 language
3 Denmark 189 32 5,9 language
4 Ireland 184 33 5,6
5 Bosnia & Herzegovina 94 19 4,9
6 Estonia 69 14 4,9
7 Norway 168 35 4,8 language, neighbour

Yup, since Serbia is our borderline nieghbour we had to give them 12's

But let's look at Norway instead
1 Sweden 243 35 6,9 language, neighbour
2 Denmark 203 31 6,5 language
[ Serbia & Montenegro 16 3 5,3 ]
3 Serbia 26 5 5,2
4 Iceland 112 23 4,9 language
5 Bosnia & Herzegovina 84 18 4,7
6 Ireland 168 36 4,7

Yup, top 2 actually are neighbours, right you are.

And what about Finland?
1 Estonia 102 12 8,5 language
2 Italy 115 16 7,2
[ Serbia & Montenegro 20 3 6,7 ]
3 Hungary 37 6 6,2 language
4 Sweden 157 31 5,1 language, neighbour
5 Israel 144 30 4,8
6 Russia 59 13 4,5 neighbour

Can you see the same thing I do? The ex-Yo countrys exampled there are TOPPING each other completely, along with their neighbours, nice and tidy. Granted there are some tops in the scandinavian favorites aswell, but our scores are not as assured to each other as yours are.

The way I read these charts, sweden actually have ex-Yo countrys as the countrys they've given the highest average points to. that GOTTA be because we're voting on our neighbours right?!? right?

Honestly, I really don't blame you, since you until quite recently were,,, 1 country, same as the scandinavian countrys were,,,,once a long, long time ago.
But pretty please with sugar on top. Don't try to deny it, even it if isn't because of you personally

Seems to me, that we like you a hell lot more then you like us anyway, since serbia at least is in every scandinavian top chart, and none of the scandinavian countrys are in the ex-Yo's charts, too busy voting on each other perhaps?

I never denied it. I denied the fact that we always give 12's to ex-Yu countries. Of course we give points to each other, our languages are so similar that we understand them more than any other countries. But we don't give 12's to each other all the time, we often do, but not always, and we rarely agree on one ex-Yu country to give all the 12's to.

 

[Arwen]

This is the violin version of the song!

This is just amazing .... love the music ....

 

[Assuommath]

One of my favorites this year. I think that Bosnia will for sure be in the top 8.

 

[Sahistul]

It's my favourite song to win ESC 2011! Dino is a fantastic and maybe legendary singer, the creation is very good, the lyrics are beautiful, only in the show are things to change, in order for a good place in the Final, after a straight qualification for it.

 

[Asiye]

I love Dino Merlin and this song so much. Dino Merlin is a real legend. Respects! I hope he will visit Turkey for promo. I know he will visit some countries but i didn't read that he would come to Turkey anywhere Does anyone have any information about it? By the way, what does "sito" mean?

 

[Raul_Spain]

Is it "sieve" in English? (latin "saetacĕum", "cedazo"/"tamiz" in Spanish).

 

[Asiye]

Is it "sieve" in English? (latin "saetacĕum", "cedazo"/"tamiz" in Spanish).

Google translate says so but it should have another meaning.

 

[sannerz]

"Sito" means like a sifter.
You sift through all the bad stuff and all you're left is the good stuff in your life.

 

[sannerz]

Oh, and if you want to see what the LIVE version of the song sounds like, here you go:

 

[julien4ESC]

Wow it's really bad in live. Not a winner for sure !

 

[dogmeat]

Lena was far worse and won.

 

[sannerz]

Wow it's really bad in live. Not a winner for sure !

It sounds almost the same... /:

 

[PeterLPZ]

I don´t think, that he was worse live.
This song is my favorite this year. I will call for it in the 2nd semifinal by sure. It´s such a beautiful song with great harmonies and it has a really good rythm. I love it

 

[Sahistul]

I don't think he sounds awful in LIVE, he has to remediate some problems and it's ok...

 

[Milos-BC]

It does sound a bit worse live, but it's not bad at all. The song is still in my top 5.
