You beat me to it :D
For now there's no sign of a revamp, so I guess we can consider this is the final version he's going to present in May.
I'm a little disappointed to be honest, I'm sure they could have done something to the instrumentation to improve it. Or gone with the slower version, which is more emotional.

Until the song is not on the official channel, we cant say if the final version is this one.

The music video is nice.

Sorry but I ain't fond of this videoclip at all, it does nothing to me so does his live performance.

so glad this didn't end up having a revamp it absolutely didn't need. the video is great but missing some of the drama of his DE final performance. this remains full of potential for eurovision success. we just need to know the staging.

Still mourning Seemone as much as I am?

Somehow, but not as much as I was over the past few weeks. To be honest, I had high expectations regarding his Eurovision entry and a likely revamp. As of now, it seems pretty unlikely that this will undergo anything.

I don't feel this song and I will not be surprised if it ends up in the bottom three in the grand finals. Honestly, if this had to go to semifinals, I am sure it would strugle to qualify.

I'm sorry, but this is just a terrible song. Quite possibly one of the worst things France has sent in the last 10 years.

I can appreciate the message behind it, but the entire thing is just a mess.

I somehow like & feel this song but I can understand the opposite view too. Either way it was like only MY 6th favourite in its NF.

It will do well i believe! It is not the best song out here but still with a clever staging it will reach top 10!

There is something about this, I keep coming back to it more often than other entries. The chorus is very memorable, I love it. Bilal has enough time to decide if he wants to be Lady Gaga or Harry Potter and should also improve his singing, it's not a very hard song to sing imo.

France TV threatens to withdraw from the Eurovision 2019 in protest against series "Duz Pua" that is due to be broadcast by KAN in May, reports Yedioth Ahronot.

As we have reported earlier, the broadcasting corportation is working on a TV series centered on a French singer of Muslim origin, who takes part in the contest, pretending to be a homosexual and suspected of being a terrorist.

France TV demands that the project is shelved: : "If it is broadcast, we will boycott the competition." KAN refuses to give in, and Executive Supervisor of the Eurovision Song Contest tries to solve the crisis.

Eldad Koblenz, the CEO of the broadcasting corporation, who has already purchased the series, insists that he is not prepared to give in to the French pressure, out of freedom of speech and creativity.

They ain't going to withdraw. -_- what do they care what's on tv in another country. I'm sure there's been plenty of shows saying shit about the UK, don't see us calling to boycott anything.

Can you please give us a link to where you have read this (this should be something everyone should do on the forum, cause people wants to know what sources people use...)? Maybe you have written here about it in the past, but since I had a stomachflu these latest days I am like out of bounds with the ESC-world. :lol:

Where did you see that? It sounds like an April Fool to me.
