Way better.
But yeah, the song is generic af, so I don't really want it to win.

Between the main vocalist and the backing vocals, it's a battle of who sounds the most bored and off key

I have a HUGE problem with the singer who has no charisma, no powerful voice, no stage presence. It sucks. The songs could have been much better with a better singer.

The Finnish people must really love Darude if so many people bought the ticket to see 3 songs and watch video footage the rest of the time. :rolleyes:

Anyone else feel kind of insulted by the lack of vocal power here? Darude deserves better treatment than this.

That was better than the first one! The staging concept wasn't quite as tight but Superman is still my favourite of the three songs, and the vocals were much better here.

Not that Sebastian sounded much better himself, mind you, but the backing vocals carried him way harder this time after not really doing anything in Release Me. Bias on the production team, or just luck? Either way, I'm not complaining.

It doesn't matter what song goes with vocals that bad.

As long as Finland fixes the vocal/sound issue or whatever it is I think they'll reach the final regardless of which song they choose. I think some people here are too harsh, don't forget that the competition isn't strong this year (so far).

So that's where Valentina's Ikea light went. Superman is the most bless of bless songs I've ever heard. I think it's adorable. The performance though wasn't as good as Release Me (low-key a hot mess actually). The singing as well is once again... a lil' bit questionable. But then how can you not smile when witnessing that performance?

I like the staging for Superman better than Release me. It's more uplifting and I like those glowing balls towards the end. Release me felt kind of stiff.

The vocals were perfectly fine. Did you expect pitch perfect singing? Because I didn't. I never do unless i know the singers's capabilities

Just compare them to this :lol:

The Eurovision of today values vocals very highly. Flashy lights alone might allow you to qualify, maybe, but you're looking at bottom 10 with vocals that questionable.

Darude, with his impact on the EDM and international music scene, should not go the way of Cascada and the rest who have tried comebacks this decade through ESC.

I predict Look away as the winner. It has got the most impressive staging and a message.

Ok but if his vocals are like that in Tel Aviv, Finland will definitely not qualify or be in the top 10 this year !
