Germany GERMANY 2014 - Elaiza - Is It Right

[Musicosity]

Well yes. Actually I watched it before but I've never occupied myself with it that close. This is why my rank is "In Training"

Don't worry, you will learn quickly. But be prepared to never stop learning. Welcome to the community!

No changes to the Staging from the National Final. The three ladies are standing in a row in the center of the Stage. The Stage looks rather simple with little effects. It's purple, blue, and some green looking colors. It appears that Elaiza is going for simplicity using their charm to impress that was one of the reasons it won the German preselection. The camera is heavily focusing on the lead singer.
During the last chorus the word ELAIZA appears in the background. The lead singer missed her cue (or was the microphone off?) the first time and looked slightly dazzled but manage to finish the song without any obvious screw ups.
Olivia: Average, there was nothing particularly wrong with it. She sang fine. It's just a little flat. There is nothing to criticize but just being "fine" may just not be enough.
Madeleine: It's cute and I like the background but it's not a winning song. There is now WOW factor!

Quite a bad reaction in the press center. Similar to Spain last year, a lot of people believe this screams last place.

Actually I don't think it will come last. I think it's a dark horse tbh. With that song there is not a lot of staging and fancy pyros that they can use. I love relative simplicity of it and that they haven't gone overboard. But it has nothing really to remember it by.

Last place? Not that bad...ok maybe it won't be in the top 15 but there are many other songs who deserves to come last instead of Germany. And it has nothing to do with Spain last year

 

[GermanBango]

Well, Cascada had "WoW-effects" last year ... and came 21st anyway.
It's not a surprise that there was a bad reaction in the press center ... those guys are all average Eurovision-fans and as we know they aren't into Elaiza and "Is it right". That is exactly what fan polls & odds are telling us for months now. I don't think that those things are really meaningful but we'll see next Saturday

It won't come last imo
I've always liked this song and I loved the rehearsal clip purely because I like the song and the simplicity of it, it doesn't need pyro's or strobes

It probably won't re-enter my top 10 before the final but it's just outside

Eurovision's press center is made by anything... journalists, blogger... then dogs, pigs, gooses ecc. ecc.

No way is that coming last place. I see somewhere between 11th and 15th.

Usually the "worst" songs don't end last but those who are just bleh and in between. And I wasn't saying EVERYONE was saying the same thing, overall it was just a very tame reaction compared to most other rehearsals.

The worst songs aren't the bleh songs?

Couldn't be more agree. I the song. It's so cute and simple and it's a song worth to vote for. - I'll do!

Good Luck Germany.

The backdrop looks really cool and they use the confetti-machines!

Still like their first rehearsal although I fear that they won't get the attention they deserve in the final.
Possibly with a good starting position.

 

[GermanBango]

The girls are soooo cute!
I love that they are so natural ... you can really tell that they have a good time in Kopenhagen.

Great background! But yeah, this song does nothing for me really

 

[Evalngelion]

I Quite Like this, Hope they get a high Score from juries for All her Haters.

 

[Musicosity]

I hope that they have a good plan for camera direction, and that Ela is on top of her game on Saturday. There isn't much going on in that act beside her, everything looks so static. I called beating Cascada a success for them, and that may turn out to be a challenge. At least the sound is good. Anyways, fingers crossed.

There's not much going on on stage in this rehearsal video.
Hope that we get in the second rehearsal some shots from more focused cameras.
All depends on the right ankles during their perfomance. If the camera work isn't good I can see this flop although I love them very much!

I hope, this will do well. the girls have such a power and convey it well. good luck germany
