Georgia GEORGIA 2014 - Mariko Ebralidze and The Shin - Three Minutes to Earth

[QwaarJet]

I think we can all agree that this has zero chance of making the final.

 

[RainyWoods]

It's incredible. Most out there thing in Eurovision since "Suus". Experimentation for the win!!

Can somebody help me ? I don't understand the purpose of the first 45 seconds...

This song is the kind of experimentation that leaves you in hospital needing your stomach pumped.

Oh i'm sorry but I absolutely love it. I've just had my forth listen and would like to declare it genius. It would be hard to make anything more un-eurovisionary and offensive/"WTF?" to the average Eurovision listener.

This actually sounds like an amazing experimental jam. Some groovy friends having fun together. I'm sick to death of all the polished turds at Eurovision. Lets celebrate something freaky and rad for a change. The music is amazingly interesting and the womans voice is incredible.

UUm aja
1)Mariko and the actors of the clip have taken drugs?
2) "Yorolei ji jii" said a guitarist member of The Shin
3) Eldrine ( ESC 2011) I miss you .
4) ZZZzzzz, ops, sorry is boring.

Mariko's voice is good. I simply can't give you more than that. The music is pretty pedestrian. I actually had high expectation for this entry as well. Although I can't agree with those calling it boring. It certainly isn't boring...even if It's for the wrong reasons.

 

[kengaIME]

Wow. It's so different.
Not sure if I like it, kind of a strange song

 

[Mattan]

I'm a big fan of the intro, and the song as a whole is quite nice. The arrangement is quite complicated, so it takes multiple listens to get into. I expect to find a lot more the more I listen to this - and I will, because there's something appealing about this song, even though I can't quite point out what.

This is, however, one song where English doesn't work at all, especially with lyrics like these. When Mariko comes in, the mood set in the first part of the song falls a bit flat, even though she's a good singer. Also, there's no way the general public or juries will be bothered to listen to this, especially with this arrangement, possibly after several catchier songs. We'll have to be content with seeing this once.

The refrain sounds like something out of Hair - that's a good thing, mind you.

Seems all over the place, but when the poll is up, I'll give it 4 points.

 

[PashonFrut]

Hmm it's not what I expected. I don't like Mariko's voice, it would have been better with just The Shin. I like the background music, but then again I'm very familiar with Georgian folk ..

 

[Milos-BC]

Wow, this is too diverse even for my taste I don't know what to think yet. There are some parts that I really like (especially the opening), and yet there are some parts that I find really bad. I need to hear it a couple more times to decide whether I like it or not, but so far I am more "liking" it then "disliking" it I love that it is different and original, I always appreciate that in ESC.

5 points for now.

 

[Mrm]

This is MAGNIFICENT!!!

I'm speechless....

Is this for ESC really??

I just wish there were some ETHNO Georgian part, Georgian ethno music is AWESOME!!!!

 

[i anixi]

Nobody craves for "different" more than me but even different has to be good and this is very far from it. This sounds like something I would do, should I venture in the world of music making: it is simply amateurish. It's not even differente enough, just a few random sounds awkwardly put together. Definetely not daring, it's simply lame NONO

At this point I'm seriously comtemplating stepping out and skipping this year's edition altogether. I mean, the way things stand I haven't awarded a single 12 to any song yet (I have, but NFs have wasted them all one after the other) and Sanna Nielsen is currently part of my top 4, possibly top 3 with no prospects of her going out of it being discernible in the horizon. WTF? T()

It simply can't get any more depressing than this...

I didn't expect this to be as daring as it is!!

You like it as well!?

I knew you would

[DannyDS]

This is going to be either totally fab or total crap.

I hope for the first, ofcourse.

aaaaaand it's total crap.

Yeah it's awesome. The most interesting, experimental 3 minutes of music at Eurovision ever I think. It's got to be. They must to be commended for bringing something so free to the contest. This is what music should be about.

 

[Mrm]

Hahah I imagine reaction on this entry of OGAE members!ahahahahahahahahahahahahhahaahhahaahha3333333333333

That reaction must be priceless, even better than this entry!
