From the small part of rehearsal we could see, this is FANTASTIC!!

Their "utopian" dance when they hold each other hands is WONDERFUL! xlove xheart

BTW I will be in Greece on the night of the final! :D

Greece will definitely qualify. Not only that - I am pretty sure that will do much better than most people think.

I loved the song from the begin and I fully understand why people hate it, but this will do well. Among all these high-tech performances they stand out for me. Easily.

:rolleyes:

This song has been sticking in my mind a lot over the past fortnight. Just the choruses that are in seven beats to the bar (like at the end and the beginning). I really wish they'd made more of that seven-beat groove, rather than throwing in bland nondescript rap for so much of the piece...

Bill, taking his shirt off towards the end of the song was a mistake. I hope they will rethink about it...

I still don't like the song, but they have pretty nice staging and performance :eek: I definitely agree that this will do better than most people except (especially if the performance will look good on tv)

I knew it. Greece will have a perfect staging again. They surely know how to stage a song. This is the country that gave us theater after all. xyes

There is no song, but the powerful instrumental and the staging warm colours alone might see it through to the final. It doesn't deserve it though, in my opinion, and I'm hoping juries will prevent it happening.

It deserves it. As you said, there is a powerful instrumental and the staging is good and not boring. The song is definitely original and the group has a good vocal performance. Even their clothing is on point ;)

Not only though.
Also: Democracy and Philosophy and Olympic Games.

... Yes, well, APART from theatre and democracy and philosophy and the Olympic games and "My Number One", what have the Greeks ever done for us??

What Greece have done for Bulgaria? Well, over 150.000 Business - factories moved from Greece to Bulgaria in the last 6 years, so over 50.000 jobs for Bulgarians, I think is enough? :D

Next year they should just send 3 minutes of Tv static, it's not like that would prevent them from qualifying
