Greece GREECE 2016 - Argo - Utopian Land

[SirPeterGriffin]

If this qualifies over or I'm gonna be very angry
You couldn't pick worse songs than those. Greece's entry is way better than Moldova's cliched europop song, Austria's childish song and yes, even Czech Republic's flat ballad, so freakin overrated...

That's my reaction after i realize that there are people who somehow think Icebreaker is the best of this year's Eurovision. Big fail...

Please let me know where. I would love to see the Czech Republic being freaking overrated, just for once...

do you know im stuck as what to think of this song, i like it but i hate it if you see what i mean lol. I gave it 5 points just because it's stuck in my mind in a very bizarre way.

will qualify, this entry is the most underestimated song in ESC since the beginning of the semi finals' system

It's not the song that is underestimated, it's the power of greek diaspora voting. Plus Cyprus in the same semi. So if this qualifies (which I fear it will) than it's definitely NOT the song that is responsible for it. This song sent by a country like Moldova, Czech republik, Belgium, San Marino or also Austeia wpuöd not stand the söihtest chance that we would even discussing a posiible qualification.

Same with Bosnia. A guaranteed NQ had it been any other country.

Greek diaspora, use to vote for Greece mostly when our song has ethnic flavor.
Remember 2014 & 2015 ?

come on! greek diaspora votes for greek entries regardless of ethnic flavor or not.

 

[Nicholas123]

come on! greek diaspora votes for greek entries regardless of ethnic flavor or not.

Then how can our televoting results in 2002, 2003, 2014 and 2015 be explained?

 

[GRE]

come on! greek diaspora votes for greek entries regardless of ethnic flavor or not.

So why did we get in televoting only 24 points last year and 43 points in 2014 ?

That doesn't make too much sense because diaspora has a power in a few countries.

There are no Bosnians in Armenia, Azerbaijan, Russia, Hungary, Iceland, Malta, San Marino etc etc. Or there are only few there so they cannot create any impact.

You overestimate the power of diaspora specially in this era with the jury beside televote.

The same goes for Greece: Greeks live in some countries and they will vote, but in most of these not really.

you seem to think that i said ONLY diaspora brings greece to the final or that the televote consists only of diaspora. that is not the case. but it's a decisive factor for the fact that greece has up to now never failed to qualify.
