and public review of Czech entry: https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=152&v=ad6tHIHXZoQ This is probably how the song is perceived when being heard the first time :?

http://eurofanweb.com/2016/04/01/ga...ould-waste-precious-energy-trying-to-do-that/ Only one month and a half left to Eurovision Song Contest 2016. We assure you are working on the performance, and the outfit, can you ahead us something we could see in Stockholm? That that is a big surprise, you will have to stay tuned for that one and expect some crazy fun competition!

WHAT?

 

[Ewigkeit]

How can a person resist the beauty of this entry? If they fail with this song, I will never ever watch this sh*t show again.

According to Eurocontest.cz and Eurovoix.com, Gabriela will sing "I Stand" at some event called EuroParty in Zlín (Czech Republic), 26th April. At first, I thought it will be just some amateurish meeting of handful of enthusiasts from GG´s fan club and that they called it EuroParty just to underline what she is going to sing in there. But according to some comments under this Escportal.cz article, the event seems to be something bigger and more official - it will be co-organized by OGAE Czech Republic and - believe it or not - ČT. Apparently, possible participation of several other 2016 entrants is not excluded.

Is she going to any of the other promo tours Amsterdam or london or even tel aviv?

Unfortunately, no. It´s not possible due to her participation in a concert tour "Rock Meets Classics" across Germany and Switzerland.

 

[megzpegz]

Ah I see she is a busy woman then

 

[Ritararita]

Since we have nothing else recent, let´s see a video (of questionable quality, sadly) from the above mentioned tour.

This will be the second edition of the EuroParty. Last year (or 2 years ago?) they had Krista Siegfrids

Not even Marta & Václav? :shock: Were you there? Was it as sad as it sounds?

Yeah, I looked it up now and it was in 2014, so without Marta & Václav.
I wasn't there, here are some pictures from it https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.761358100591244.1073741839.176160432444350&type=3
This year it looks more official, with the support from ČT.

I hope this tour doesnt take attention away from rehearsing for eurovision

Gabriela in her natural habitat. It looks like one of those "Where´s Wally" pictures. (source)

The Czech Republic has moved up to 17th in the odds and is shortening across the board

 

[Kairit]

When I first heard it, I placed it at the bottom of my ranking as I usually really don't like songs that are based on drawn out notes and a dramatic instrumental. But this has insanely grown on me through the weeks. Hauntingly beautiful. My vote will go to this in the semi if they have a good enough performance, because damn this deserves to qualify and I honestly think there's no way they won't this time.

 

[Ritararita]

So, we are 10th in our SF, sandwiched between two heavyweights, and . All of our direct competitors (the other screaming women from , and ) were placed near the end of the show. Great.

 

[GianlucaTomoe]

Lmao, Cyprus is far from being a heavyweight. One of the most artificial hypes, and the prime candidate to be the fanflop of the year

 

[John1]

I hate more than few years ago.

I think certain someone (Bjorkman) doesn't want Czech Republic and other Central European countries in the contest. The contest has become a parody of Melodifestivalen revolved around Nordic countries, some Ex-soviet republics (Russia, Ukraine and Azerbaijan) and other chosen ones (Greece, Bosnia). If are in Top 3 again, then I will give up on Eurovision.

Guys show some confidence! The song is without a doubt the best ballad this year and she is stunningly beautiful She's going to make it!

I hope so. Otherwise I can see Czech Republic saying goodbye to Eurovision. If Czech Republic withdraws, I'll be withdrawing with them
