99% people who watch eurovision every year do not care what happens in Feb or March. That's not a big deal 😁

I agree with you. The public does not care about any NF (maybe about their own, partially but that's it).

I just think that it might have an impact on the betting odds and so far, I believe that juries as well as Björkman are often (mis)led by them when they rank all songs and come up with a running order for the semis.

I'd say that's true for the final, definitely, but with all-televote semis it's a bit different.

I agree. And when it comes to :cz:, whether there's any positive or negative hype behind them can have a big impact. Vesna's live performances were not great prior to the show, but the studio cut and music video were excellent and everyone held out hope for them. Compare that with the fact that Aiko's live performance at the NF stuck in everyone's head until May; she was great when it came to the show itself but it was too late to change enough people's minds. I think she might have just edged it if she'd had a bit more momentum.

Anyway, this having the first performance not be the version of the song we'll be hearing in May is certainly an odd way to do things but there might be some method behind the madness.

Imagine people lashing out completely if they find the ESC version worse than what he did today. They're setting themselves up for a potential world of trouble.

Not bad, but nothing I am hyped for right now. Need to hear the studio version!
I love this acoustic version, but I doubt I will like the regular one that much.. :(

I really like the sound of it. Due to its nature of being acoustic, not quite yet what I would like to hear but the actual version is gonna rock it I feel it. Also is he a crush material? With a voice like that I'm like aaa

His voice at the beginning is my Highlight of the season so far tbh lol
I really like this Version, and I'm very curious for the Studio Version!

But what do I know... Duncan was my #1 in 2019, I attended his concert and bought both of his studio albums...
Seriously, Czechia, I can't wait to listen to the full song!

The piano part sounds absolutely brilliant and winner material for Eurovision and Adonxs has a really strong voice and stage presence but then it's a bit ruined because the choir parts and it makes the second part/end of the song not as powerful as the beginning. It has jury winner vibes written all over it and i could see Czechia doing very well with him, like Top 5/6 but i don't think this is a winner. Of course this is only an acoustic version but to be honest, it doesn't sound like acoustic at some point.

I guess the final version won't have the same piano part and it will be different.

Czechia is #21 in the betting odds right now and still rising.

They were #28 two days ago.

I'm a bit confused. Wasn't he announcing an "acoustic version" of the song at MESC? This one? Acoustic? xthink

The first half was acoustic, though.

He describes his song as a post-ballad with psrts to dance too? (I have no clue what that phrase should mean.... maybe it starts like an acoustic, piano-driven stripped down ballad and turns into a choir-driven clap-along anthem to shake things up?)
