Denmark DENMARK 2023 - Reiley - Breaking My Heart

[ESC United Mod Team]

 

[randajad]

Can't believe Denmark of all countries picked the best song tonight. Compared to their previous attempt this is great, it's giving me Troye Sivan vibes. A bit too much autotune, we stan a robot twink though.

Hmm...Is this better than Ireland? I...guess?

Ikr. What a night.

B-but Justin isn't gæy!!

Where is the interview with Reiley talking about his sexuality?

 

[jatojo]

This is just so.. Danish
middle of the road, extremely inoffensive

It offenses me - I don't like that type of music. Most other songs from the contest were inoffensive to me.

I don't believe this music that is most popular among the general Danes though(?)
Don't get me wrong I adore Denmark as a country but step up your game in eurovision!!!!

It was the favorite with the juries.
Televoters wanted Nicklas Sonne.

I feel my comment have been offensive, so I'll elaborate what I meant to say.

"Breaking my Heart" sounded like... those teen aesthetic songs. These types of music can be heard in Troye Sivan (hence the 'gay' joke, since he reminded me so much of Troye) or Lauv's songs, but might be extended in vibe to songs of Lyn Lapid, Griff, or JVKE. IDK why but I kept on associating their songs with the gay side of TikTok, since their songs are popular there.

I hope this sums it up, because I don't have any harmful intentions but I realised my comment can be interpreted wrongly.

After first listening it was like Greece 2022 but without good culmination. A little too much of autotune, but overall not great but not terrible. in the pool. At least one song for semi 2 from this Saturday with chances for the final.

I can easily follow your associations. And I'm not the biggest fan of those trends.

I just think it's important to distinguish between gay-ish stuff and stuff that is openly sexually oriented (like drag queen entries).

Freedom slaps so hard! At least I got a new song on my playlist.

"Breaking my heart" was my favorite here besides "Beautiful bullshit" and I am glad, he won... but Denmark definitely had better NFs in the past

 

[jatojo]

Okay, so you call your mother and ask: “By the way, did you watch Melodi Grand Prix and which song was your favourite?”

I was thinking something like ‘Glansbilllede’, ‘Lige her’ or maybe Eyjaa. Songs that I expected to fit the ears of an 80-year-old.

But no! “Well, after a few listens, I liked ‘Freedom’ the most.” WTF? Now, I’m the one who feels hopelessly old-fashioned.

Vocally, there‘s room for improvmemt…

 

[Rocket man]

Yeah, this is nice from Denmark, it isn't too far away from what Charli XCX would do and I'm a big fan of Charli XCX. The performance is fun. My only criticism would be the vocals, if he can make that stronger then Denmark could do really well.

 

[Grinch]

It's giving "average kpop boygroup member making his solo debut". I don't know how to explain this but yeah. 5 points. Mediocre.

 

[harey]

I don't like the song but I think that it may do well i' televote.

When I counted the televotes points in my head I had the feeling that the three of them were very close, do you know how many votes were received for each one?

 

[HarryUK]

The autotune is clearly being used to mask the fact we aren't really getting a vocal here lol

It's mediocre at best. I'm not overly enamoured

 

[FilipFromSweden]

This whole entry is soooo ''Heartstopper'' (the tv-show). I kinda like it and think it will do alright

 

[empo21]

Woooow, this is like a super collection of the worse parts of Gen-z/tiktok - music and styling-wise.

Difference is, Heartstopper is actually good lol

 

[dannytr24]

Not my cup of tea and too much autotune, way too much..
