Re: GREECE 2016

If Greece participates next year, they'll probably send their usual folky uptempo boring routine. That's even more unfortunate that that it seems to be only what people want. It's like Greece is meant to be stuck with that kind of song, but that would be nice to hear different things from them. People cried foul for a ballad in like ten years :? imo that's a shame to be so obsessed with the "happy-funny traditional-sounding uptempo" format. Greece shouldn't be reduced to that imo xshrug

Maria Elena Kyriakou didn't do well in this year with a ballad...

That's what I meant. I'm convinced Greece didn't do well this year because it's not what people expect from this country (and the same thing happened last year).

She was given a weak ballad, that's why she flopped! A great voice is not enough! :|

Greece, at the moment, is 100% surely out of the contest!

Re: GREECE 2016

I noticed now that everytime ESC has been in Stockholm, Greece has withdrawn. :( I hope this won't happen, we need Greece in the contest!

Keep your heads high Greece! Look into the translation of their entry from 1993, quite hopeful in a way thinking about these times! :mrgreen:

Oh,don't remind me please.
Such a mediocre year and 9th place was not good enough for Greece.Deserved something better.About 2-3 places higher.

Re: GREECE 2016

And by the way,
if ERT decides to enter ESC 2016, i think will do it very quietly,because the last think greeks want to hear about right now, is Eurovision. :D

The same thing about Poland. We have never participated in Eurovision, when contest was held in Sweden. Anyway, our presence in 2016 is almost sure, so it will change :D

Portugal too has withdrawn in 2013 and 2000, the last two times Sweden hosted. Hope this is not some sort of curse!

Re: GREECE 2016

[MENTION=5532]GRE[/MENTION] I don't know what Eleni is singing - so the lyrics may be stupid - but "Golden Boy" sounds amazing in Greek. Nadav should have sung it in Hebrew tbh.
