What would you expect from Parisians

Btw, isn't it strange we know nothing about the show ? It's tomorrow but we still have no infos about the length, the presentators, or what will happen in general.

For the length, it's certainly around 15 minutes, as the announcement start at 20h50, and the traditionnel sunday movie start at 21h05,
except if there are a last minute change, but seem unlikely.

I don't even think it will last 15 minutes, maybe :
- 2 minutes for the intro
- 3 minutes for the song
- 5 minutes for a small interview with 2 ou 3 questions to Tom.

It depends if they'll say obvious things like "I'm very happy to represent France", etc, or if they'll go further and talk about the song, how and when they called him, maybe the future staging, etc. Actually you may be right, it could last up to around 15 minutes.

This year's Eurovision edition could really use some boost in my eyes. And I could finally use a nice trip to France again in 2021. France, please please deliver tomorrow!

(I did promise myself last year not to be disappointed about the entire edition when only knowing a few songs, because I do love 2019 in the end... But come on, there's only Fai Rumore I can really root for by now.)

Come one guys, if the song had leaked, you would have know it already, and the song comes out in what ? 20 hours....we can wait so few hours.

I dont really know how to expect about Tom's song, but FTV seem to think France can reach the top 5 with it, why not, i hope of course, but i try to not be too confident, but i'm very excited for tomorroow :)

We're supposed to reach the top 5 every year though. So I'mma need more than this argument, especially from those who picked the song :unsure: They'll never say it's trash.

I expect something mid that will join Messtaigne and Bland Canto in the depths of my personal list. But I'd love to be proven wrong.

If Tom gets his own "LoveWave" and performs it in a leotard, count me in. :giggle:

They never say that clearly the result they want to get (I don't count the "of course, this year, we go for the win") and have never been that confident. Alexandra clearly said they want to get closer to the top 3. Eiffel Tower, etc, I can't even imagine if the song is disappointing.

They also didn't have an internally selected song in 2018 and 2019, so this year actually feels a lot different.
With MM and Bilal, the hype was largely fanbase-generated, but this time it's purely on the broadcaster (for now).

I didn't like Tom Leeb's song and I don't understand why France, which has one of the most beautiful languages in the world, must sing in English ... I would emphasize the charm of the French language. Personal opinion. Perhaps the strength of this song is the beauty of the singer and her seductive voice; says a man who likes women! :)

I has been confirmed last month that the song "might be partly in english", so it means that the other part will likely be in french.
édit : I didn't understand, what song are you talking about ?

By the way I enjoy the occasion to ask : why do some of you think he can't sing an uptempo song ? I'm not saying it'll be (it's very unlikely to be honest) but he can sing more uptempo songs :

I went to see a song called "Sun" on Youtube. I thought this was the song the singer will bring to Eurovision. Instead it's a fake news. I hope France will bring a better song than that! For the rest, you French should be proud of your language. What's the point of singing it partly in English and partly in French? Or sing it in English or French.

I was wrong: P I was so curious to discover the French song that I was deceived by a fake news. The song is "Sun".
It would be impossiblee to be his entry since it has been released long before 1 September! However i hope too that something way more interesting than ''Sun'' will come tomorrow.
