If "Ma Liberté" wins France could and should expect a low finish, ça va me casser les couilles :lol:

Exactly! Twin Twin are the only ones with a hope in hell of achieving a good result. The other two will be lost in mediocrity.

The other two will just make ESC's already bad reputation in France even worse :lol:

Twin Twin could do something out of the box and shock us all in a good way. They have the potential to do an extravagant staging

Classy Joanna all the way. As long as the song is quality, that is the most important thing.

That's what it was supposed to, but I could see a call for support Destan this morning in the middle of the bobsleigh in Olympics ! :lol:

BtW, there is no date on the website. They may hope people will continue to vote to earn more money ! xrofl3 whoever is qualified will cost a lot in hairdresser, so we have to have a lot ofmoney for that ! xrofl3

Anyhow, the program next week may not be live... So it will be known by happy few who will win it all ! :D
BTW, the "National final" is next week because the program Les Chansons d'abord has been cancelled for 2 weeks, like a lot of programs on public television because of the Olympics ! :)

Considering you understand the lyrics and actually know what they mean I'm surprised you say this song is just about a moustache

Well, if you delete the chorus and this moustache thing, then the lyrics would be ok since they're not typical for ESC. To sum up, it's about never being happy of what we've got in life.
But a few lines makes the whole thing embarrassing to listen to, I wish I couldn't understand what they're singing. :lol: Moustache? Really? Is there something more random than that?
Otherwise, I agree, this could do well. That's my opinion but recently, our best result was "Allez Ola Olé", and again if we go for something in the like... That's not the path I'd like my country to take. We haven't won for a long time, and I wish we could do well with classier acts.

I think France has to relax, enjoy being in the show and chill along with Ireland, UK, Italy, Israel, Sweden, Switzerland and some others.
There are so many countries that haven't won yet despite of having been in the contest for many many many years (like Portugal, or Poland), or won only once.
Give them a chance ;)

Odalis, I'm not into the "serious-win-strategy" state of mind. Really not. :)
I'm just tired to see how incompetent France 3 is to make good choices and change the bad reputation the contest has here.
The proof is that no one seem to care about it this year. And the few ones who dare listen to the entries are like WTH, is that all they could come up with?
I acknowledge most French like criticizing for criticizing, but still, some things are wrong with our current delegation.

Yeah, this attitude when people don't take it seriously really sucks(
Was it better when Amaury was all red hot in the odds?

Oh, I guess they really believed in a victory that year, and they were so convincing that I began to believe them :D.
But of course, the outcome didn't meet their expectations and they started their annual whining about the contest : Amaury faced sound issues, they had the best song anyway, one must have the balls to sing in Corsican, let's blame it on Eastern European countries, bla bla bla. Actually, they keep the bad reputation of the contest going since they act as sore losers every year.

I agree that Sognu deserved a better fate. But there were missed opportunities too : send Anggun in 2012 with "Echo" :? while she had "Mon meilleur amour" that would have been perfect for the contest, and with an ugly Olympic Games presentation. I remember they said "We understood well what the audience wanted and we did everything to wow everyone"... :lol: well!

Even last year, Amandine did her best but the song wasn't great. Albeit it was different and kinda classy.

But I guess I'm already labelled as the one who's criticizing all the time in this thread. So I'll just keep quiet for now.

My fave for :fr: is Joanna's Ma liberte...It is balland(points from juries) and she has great voice
Twin twin has funny song but they will take good place only if they have the same lucky as :fr: had at 2010 with "Allez Ola Ole"
Destan are just the French One Direction...although the song isn't bad it doesn't fit to Eurovision at all

I don't think it....it is a style of song that is so popular outside ESC so I don't think it is appropriate from ESC because the song won't get many votes because it is generic
