What a load of crap seriously humans never fail to amaze me. Loreen arrogant? You have to be danish, with this small time little brother complex still angry you lost the wars 500 years ago :) HAHA
PS. everyone should really leave personal insults and name calling of pesons they dont know out of it. Its just very low to attack the person because you dont like the song or the country for some reason.

No Name has been on this forum for a long time and I can guarantee you he has no little brother complex or anything. He just happens to dislike the Swedish song. And it's okay to criticize the artists but not board members

A member can defend himself, name calliing on singers, are just low. and a desperate attempt to get your argument across. I couldnt care less which songs he like or dislike. i reacted to two of his posts because i thought they were stupid and i responded accordingly.

I was very vocal about my dislike for Mr. Eric "I have no talent but healthy teeth" Saade last year myself but happen to like and support Lorreen. Artists know what they get themselves into when signing up for the job. As long as it doesn't become political or personal among members, it's fair game.

Oh here we go...so because I'm danish and I don't like neither Loreen nor your song it just has to be due to some kind of little brother complex?

Gimme a break...you could send a a choir of one-legged barking dog to ESC and you'd still receive our 12 points. Most danes will blindly follow your lead, I'm just one of the few ones who happen not to like it, simple as that. So if you think my comment is rooted in some kind of completely non-relevant historical era, then it probably says more about you than me.

My critique was aimed at the Swedish song, not the Swedish nation. Your comment however has kinda proved to me that those two things might actually go hand in hand after all. :lol:





Music is a matter of taste, so no, everyone aren't wrong. You can't argue against taste and I never did so either. I just stated my opinion on what I think the average European might like (hereby not including ESC-fans).

I'd like to see some international poll with no attachments to the ESC-community as I'm still yet to see one yet. And no, SVT's polls don't count.
Betting sites? Those are based on predictions based on what people might like, not actual preferences. Unless you're a fortune-teller I doubt you're able to tell what people across all ages and interests are gonna prefer in may.




Worst posible outcome.
We're sandwiched between two other big favorites so I'm afraid our song might come across as ordinary and bland compared to Russia and Cyprus which are far more up-tempo. I wouldn't even say we're guaranteed qualification although hope with all my heart.
Like i said, i couldnt care less which songs you like or dislike, i responded to your immature way to label Loreen arrogant. Dont take it so personal im sure you are a nice guy and not arrogant yourself.

Of course, i dont have anything against "NO NAME" it was just one of his posts i disliked. many singers are arrogant and believe they rule the world. however Loreen really is not so there is no substance to call her that. i do dislike many singer myself, i dont mention it in debates because thats a pesonal opinion that only will make others angry and really dont add something to an argument.

why is it important if any1 is arrogant or something?

we're not choosing our best buddies here, we're choosing a song.
if u discussed any1's singing, fine. that actually is related to the songs.
everything else - who cares anyway? xshrug

This song is OK, but it could be much better if she could say "better" part nicer. I don't know how to explain it, but that "better" annoys me a lot.

I shouldn't like this song as much as I do, as it is just another of those four-chords songs that usually bore me quickly. But there is something spirited and inspired in Soluna's performance. A nice, soft but energetic flow. The more I listen to the song, the more I like it. I hope she will have a strong vocal performance in Baku, since a lot of the song's appeal depends on her voice. Too bad Germany cannot vote in the first semi, but if she makes it to the final, I will cast a few votes for her.

Day by Day, "You should´ve known better" grows in me. But it´s still in my 2nd half.

Normally I like songs like these very much, but this one is a bit boring in my opinion. The first time I listened to it I liked it, but now it's just somewhere in the middle of my top 42 list.
