Fingers crossed that the French delegation changed their mind after seeing all the negative response and the reason why they took down the videos on all official platforms is that they will try to find a new song ASAP.

Or maybe Tom was just trolling big time? And we will get another performance from the Eiffel Tower of another song later this month?

Edit:
My bad. It's still there.. I think Tom just killed my Internet connection for a while

Edit 2.0:
The video is still there but I can't find any comments. Did they delete all of them?

Edit 3.0:
No, the video is gone :D

@PinchyCrabstina is around, Georgian entry is behind the corner! xyaaay

Omg, you remember me. I'm genuinely touched. xheart

Because Montaigne, bless her Mr. Mime clownery heart, is at least trying to deliver something. That something is pretty mediocre, yes, but it's there. This entry is just a half-handed attempt at an old-fashioned ballad and a very lazy one at that. Sorry but I can't stand it knowing what it could've been. Sorry Tom.

The choice of song proves that the French delegation is pretty out of touch, but I do believe that they are trying. The presentation video is already indicative of that and we know from last year that they had a clear vision in regards to Bilal's staging which ultimately saved that song from humiliation. (even if it could be argued that it was a bit cringey). I think it's too early to reject the French entry completely.

Are you implying one has to be a witch to enjoy the song? :p :ROFLMAO: Oh my
Not really. I just thought that outing people and going after them ain't a nice thing to do :D

Btw, people said that about me not disliking Tulia last year :D

There was no hidden agenda behind my question, I was being curious. Especially since these people like the song, I'm not judging their taste. We all have our own. :)

I dont care finally . I've just heard Carla song from JESC has just become the most viewed Junior Eurovision clip ever on youtube channel and it helps me to get better in my sadness since the reactions. We, France are more focused on JESC now i think

I'm pretty sure it was Bilal who had a clear vision, not the delegation. By contrast, Tom didn't have a say in anything so far - not even the song itself! - so I don't think we should put our hopes into the staging. When the artist is treated like a mere prop, nothing good comes out of it because people can sense the inauthenticity.
