Cyprus CYPRUS 2024 - Silia Kapsis - Liar

[ESC United Mod Team]

 

[Mainshow]

It's alright. An inoffensive, soulless bop with a dance break.
I think it's weaker than the female-led up-tempo songs from 2021, though. - but it's slightly "superior" to "Superg!rl" - but I guess they're aiming at a younger audience.
for now.

Very generic entry from Cyprus won't stand out at all, 3 points max for me

 

[gingerale]

The chorus is really good but it feels like its only 10% of the whole song. The other 90% are a bit boring and almost annoying.

 

[0scar]

Typical girl bop but incredibly uneventful, kinda boring.

 

[Wynnter]

The soundscape in this one feels like it's trying a bit too hard.... Very distracting.

 

[Sabrewulf238]

Doesn't really do anything for me. points.

 

[mauve]

I wouldn't skip the song, but it is just there. There were better bops before.

 

[Loindici]

I still need a few more listens to make up my mind, but right now it sounds like a Fuego-Replay rehash with a very predictable dancebreak section.

 

[randajad]

The girlbops aren't girlboping this year. It's not absolutely abominable, but it is predictable and a bit cheap-ish. However it isn't dated, imo. 4

 

[Grinch]

It's ok, I'd enjoy it in the semi and then forget it probably.

Baby wake up, Cyprus just released another flavourless by the numbers girlboss song stuck in 2018. Somehow this is a bigger joke entry than some of the intentional joke entries. Move on.

 

[RainyWoods]

This is nice and bouncy but also doesn't have anything particularly special about it. Having said that, I do enjoy the song. It's catchy. Probably will eventually grow incredibly tired of it and so I'm preparing in advance with a respectable points.

 

[EscGeek]

I love it! The fact that this is just another Fuego is my only criticism of the song.

Greece really chose the worst possible song last year. One or two of you might remember i was infatuated by Antonia Kaouri & Maria Maragkou - "Shout Out" (I'm still waiting for it to be released... ) And those 5 demo seconds of "Liar" was promising as well of course.

 

[MAD20]

Cyprus back on their usual track of Fuego-ish songs... I feel this one is quite dated and boring to be honest, nothing to go crazy for. points...

 

[Realest]

Everything here is excellent.
Had a Feeling since Day 1.
12 Points.

 

[Laepo1]

This is kinda basic no?

 

[ESC94]

In my opinion in recent years is a bit like a teabag you use over and over again. After the thenth re-infusion it just tastes bland.

For me there´s absolutely nothing interesting in this entry, it actually feels like an AI mixed it together from many similiar entries of the past. And to be honest I don´t wanna hear rhymes like "fire-higher" ever and I mean EVER again in an ESC entry!!

I give this song , I could finish it but that´s it. It may reach the final but I wouldn´t miss it at all if it won´t.

This is so outdated it hurts and I don't think Silia sells it well tbh. Shock NQ vibes

This wouldn't even be a shock NQ imo, although there isn't anything similar to it in its semi. But I cannot see anyone voting for it though.

Liar is decent, sounds very mainstream but indeed quite dated, I get Britney Spears circa 2010 vibes both from the song and the MV (which is actually fun to watch). I expected something worse as Cyprus does not have a good track record with me, I usually find songs representing Cyprus worse and more forgettable than this one is. My favourite things about it are the pre-chorus and those horns as I have a soft spot for them. The worst is IMHO the chorus but I might be in minority here.
