RISE UP

 

[TheLuflee]

Praying for Krystallia Her song would easily be my #1 this year.
I guess I've never loved a Greek song that much before. Please Greece, please.

 

[Iuris]

Oh, 'Petalouda Stin Athina' by Krystallia is growing on me. Now, she is my favourite, along with Freaky Fortune.

 

[FoxOfShadows]

I want Kostas Martakis and if not, then Freaky Fortune. I really like both of these songs
The other two...not so much :?

Also on their official YouTube channel, they have been uploading a lot of past Greek Eurovision videos, including the full national finals for 2001, 2002, 2003, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008 so far.

Going into the NF, Freaky Fortune leads almost all the polls. The last two days though, Kostas Martakis has overtaken Freaky Fortune for most views on YouTube. Then Kristallia is a dark horse on account of her vocals per the rehearsal reviews. I think it will be an interesting NF!

Perfect! A way to improve my greek!

 

[Leydan]

I've listened to all 4 songs, and tbh I don't particularly like any of them to any great extent...

But I would rank them like:

1- Krystallia - Butterfly in Athens
2- Mark Angelo ft. Joesphine - Dancing night
3- Freaky Fortune ft Riskykidd - Rise up
4- Kostas Martakis - Nobody Stops

2006 = Anna Vissi =

 

[EscGeek]

i like all 4 songs,but with Kostas,Greece is my 2nd best for now

 

[Romeo]

They are all ok. but the only song I want to listen to more than once is Rise Up

 

[kengaIME]

If not Krystalia, then I hope Kostas wins!

 

[dezbee2008]

I think Kostas will win. His song is the only one I'm iffy about, but I like the other three.

 

[greece]

Well I really hate what channels do...They all promote Kostas and they all show the polls that he is first and they don't even metnion the others...
In one channel they had a intereview from Kalomoira and she said that she like Kostas' song and he is good singer but she wish good luck to all and she said that she is ok with all the songs..but they wrote that "Kalomoira votes Martakis' song".Also they saw the official poll of OGAE GREECE last because Martakis is third...And last three out of 5 or 4 member in our jury has work with Kostas and they are friends...

To be fair, ALL the acts went on TV the past few days. What you are describing, is probably a situation that is unavoidable since Martakis has been in the industry for years and has made friends. I mean I don't think he went out and said "support me on TV over the others". I think they just do it without thinking. That said, even if what you are saying is true, this all means NOTHING. Everyone was saying it was between Dantis and Tamta in 2007, and Sarbel won.

I'll say it again, its going to come down to what comes off well tonight IMO.

 

[Greekboy]

Good news for all the international fans! The official Eurovision website is going to be streaming the NF tonight!

Starts at 9PM Greek time tonight.
Web TV | Eurovision Song Contest - Copenhagen 2014

Well I haven't see ANYWHERE Krystallia or Josephine.I had seen only two time Freaky Fortune.And when someone say where in the ranking is Martakis and not the others that means something...They all just promote Kostas for undertandable reasons.

 

[Greekboy]

These are the supposed Jury members tonight: (Voting is 50% public, 50% jury)

Elipda - Singer
Reggina Kouri - Head of PR department for MAD TV
Artemi Kalesaki - Head of PR department for Dimosia Tileorasi (DT)

This is a list of their appearances posted on another site on Sunday. They have made more since then obviously.

Freaky Fortune feat. RiskyKidd: Mila (Star, March 5), Mes Stin Kali Hara (Alpha, March 9)
Josephine (Without Mark Angelo since he was in Canada): Excellent (Skai, March 7), Mes Stin Kali Hara (Alpha, March 9)
Kristallia: Meletise To (Star, March 7), Mes Stin Kali Hara (Alpha, March 9)
Kostas Martakis: Meletise To (Star, March 6), Eleni (Alpha, March 7), Deste Tous (Alpha, March 7), Mes Stin Kali Hara (Alpha, March 9)

Martakis had the most appearances as of Sunday, but again that is due to the fact that he is a bigger name.
