DannyDS can vote in one semi and in the final at least, I can't vote at all. :(

I finally got around to watching the live performance from the Eurovision in Concert gig in Amsterdam, and I have to say that although she was okay vocally, she still utterly terrifies the living daylights out of me!! All the creepy hand movements, and intense eye movements - it's like watching Jack Nicholson as he slowly descends into insanity in "The Shining"!

Tijana is staying in the front center Stage and a dancer is right behind her doing some dancing behind her and eventually takes over the entire Stage. As a matter of fact a lot of focus is on the one dancer they're having as the singer frequently interacts with him while performing her song. She has three backup singers further to her left who for the most part remain unseen.The Stage is mostly blue and using a lot of lights and random effects. Vocally it appears that Tijana is holding back, looks like she's giving maybe 60% but we expect that to change. They did not dress up for the performance.Matt: Personally I don't care for performances where too much emphasis is put on a dancer, it always seems to me as they're trying to distract us from the song. Tijana was probably getting comfortable with the Stage but it was just too lifeless for my taste. I love the fact that she's wearing a "That's Bullshirt" Shirt.Ahmet: I think the Stage Design is suitable, the choreography isn't working though. Some of the effects such as the blue square one were really nice. Overall it wasn't too good, average at best.​

Hmm a bit shaky first rehearsal.. :?

I still think she won't qualify..

Composition and lyrics are simply too weak.. :(

The white backdrop is quite refreshing in comparison to all the others (although it looks too dark!!). It's hard to judge this one without seeing how it looks properly on camera. Tijana's charisma will play a big part and we don't get to see any of it in the short clip.

Come on!Why all use these boring black,grey,white wiht cubes background... this is a dance song...purple-blue or yellow-red (maybe as the fla gof Macedonia) would have been better...Also I hope that it was just a bad day and that she will be better vocally in the live

Vocally it won't sound any different since that's simply her voice live.

I predict 10-13th in the semi.

Black & White, mmm Something conventional Macedonia, But Still Aceptable.

It's a pop Song So As you say above, Red-Yellow Color would fit well in this performance, I Like when they use the Scaffold's benefits, in Disagree with the Others I Like it..

But nothing out of the world, she needs to improve her vocals.




BTW: MY SISTER IS A NON EUROVISION FAN, SHE DOESNT EVEN KNOWS IT EXISTS.

SO I TOLD HER TO LISTEN TO ALL THE SONGS, JUST LISTEN TO IT WITOUTH VISUALIZATION (BECAUSE OF CONCHITA'S PREJUDICE XD)
:-)
SHE TOLD ME THAT MACEDONIA WAS HER FAVORITE AND THAT SHE LOVED THE INTRUMENTAL (AS ME)

I agree completely xclap

I REALLY don't understand using dark colors when a song like this calls for multiple ones like red, green, yellow like you said. It would pop out so much better if the cubes/boxes flash different colors. And that's just the led cause the lighting can easily do a lot too and their just not using it when I think that's one thing that doesn't cost the delegation anything xdoh

:lol: The problem is not the lights/colours or whatever since everyone who saw the TV screens said it was good.
The problem is the mess of 'choreography' where Tijana just stands frozen in a fast dance song and the only one moving is some strange ballet dancer.
That's a fail for this song, and I knew it would be like this.

Personally, I think the stage looks beautiful during the performance... Regarding the choreography, it's a first contact with the stage, and I think that day she will move/dance a little more.
