Re: CROATIA 2016

From HRT forum:

http://forum.hrt.hr/viewtopic.php?f=45&t=16937&sid=419edf1fd18cc1f43166401aeb3d4e9f#p791014

pitam na HRT-u hoće li se vratiti na ESC 2016 ima li ikakve priče
Dobio sam odgovor iz provjerenog izvora (kada nema istrerka da pita... :cry: )
"Daj molim te sljedeće godine je Euro 2016 u Francuskoj i Olimpijske igre u Brazilu,posla preko glave.Kome pada na pamet glupi ESC tresh, trećerazredni festival u kojem Skanidnavija i bivši SSSR prednjače
ne hvala "

"I asked HRT whether they would return in 2016, whether there is any story.
I got an answer from verified source. Please (in context = don't be funny), next year there is Euro 2016 in France and Olympic Games in Brazil, there's so much work. Who on Earth has ESC trash in mind, third-class festival in which Scandinavia and ex-SSSR are in front of everyone else.
No thanks."

Da i navodno jedna osoba na HRT Zabvnom programu rekla da nam treba barem 5 godina pauze od ESC-a

"Allegedly, one person from HRT Entertainment has said we need to take at least 5-year break from ESC."

---

I don't know whether to believe this. There really is a lot of stupid people but this surely wouldn't be an official answer (at least I hope). :?

Re: CROATIA 2016

Those statements, as much as are depressing, have sense [MENTION=10742]daniels1000[/MENTION]. Yet, on another side, those articles I posted cite "trusted sources from HRT"...so, who to believe? Honestly, I will give a bit more credibility to newspapers than forum. But...anything would surprise me from HRT...If tomorrow they announce not participating in 2016. and explain it with those arguments, that would be expected actually.

Re: CROATIA 2016

A few years ago sport's programme was a huge problem for HRT, still is, but they manage to get rights for all major competitions. I am wondering for how long will entertainment be left aside... not only entertainment but music content on HRT, which has come down to playing a few music videos after 1 am on HRT 1 and Jazz/Classical live concerts recordings at the same time on HRT 3. They need to fix the whole programming, the Voice won't make up for years and years of neglecting when it comes to music and entertainment.

Re: CROATIA 2016

Nina Kraljic commented rumors about her going at eurovision.

She told that many people congratulated to her because of that, but that she doesn't know why they do this because that are only rumors and nothing is official. Simply, she doesn't know what will be. xshrug
Furthermore, she commented on her first single...that it will be a bit...eurovisionish! xrollinglol Hmmm...I wonder if it will go out after September 1...
Article: http://www.index.hr/black/clanak/ni...la-suskanja-o-odlasku-na-eurosong/826012.aspx

On the other side, bad news are that Croatia gave up on JESC this year. But anyway, I would not say it is any kind of sign as come back at JESC last year didn't mean comeback at real esc...xshrug

Re: CROATIA 2016

I´m not very convinced that we will return, but I´m hoping that HRT will at least bother to give us a freaking broadcast this time.

Re: CROATIA 2016

My suggestion is to send Nina Kraljic (Winner of The Voice) but to add something to that. I was thinking about famous croatian musicians (Just like Il Volo, who are famous in the US.) and the first thing that came to mind were 2CELLOS. Those guys are really talented, famous and croatian after all. They might not have time to go on Eurovision because of tour (i hope that is not the case). But just imagine how powerful a song could be if they were combined.

So 2cellos + Nina Kraljic+ a powerful text (That in my opinion, should be in English because nowadays people vote only for something that they understand, and the text should be written by a proper writer not someone like Huljic) = TOP 5 OR EVEN FIRST PLACE

Even just Nina Kraljić and flights to Dubrovnik in May 2017 are booked. Also, welcome to the forum; I hope you enjoy your time here! :D

If it's the last thing I do, I will be the conductor of a Nina Kraljić hype train.

Re: CROATIA 2016

According to her Facebook page, her first single's release date is actually the 30th of this month, so if she's going to Eurovision, it won't be with that.

The fact that I probably would've killed for us to send something like this during our Celebrate/Nebo/Mižerja era. :cry: Still getting legit shivers when remembering what was the last thing Europe saw us with.

Nina's debut single.


Very interesting, and I could see it work at ESC.

Sounds pretty interesting and universal compared to other stuff on our musical scene. I woudn´t mind at all seeing and hearing something like this on esc stage.

Re: CROATIA 2016

That song is too ESC in the 90s. It would end up like Verjamem.

Re: CROATIA 2016

It is too ungrateful to predict how it would end...with bad staging it would, but with good staging I think it could be good. Anyway, if she really goes to esc, I expect that to be her next single (after September 1). Something more modern, more powerful, a bit more eurovisionish and in English! :D
