Greece GREECE 2019 - Katerine Duska - Better Love

[PanosAK]

Its even worse than last year. Her Voice and Pronounciation is unlistenable for me. I miss the old Greece
Another 0 for my former Favourite Country
"This is Love" remains (rightfully) the most successful greek Entry over the last 6 years.

My god, stop the farce

 

[Mrm]

Reading your comments and I dunno what to think..I will be able to watch it in half an hour maybe..
What do you think, I will like or not?

My prediction: you will hate it.

Do you think this will be Top18?

It will! On the semi final

 

[Realest]

It will! On the semi final

Yes, it deserves Rank 18 of 17

 

[Laepo1]

This is Love was terrible. Oniro Mou was beautiful, but didnt work live.

Better Love is catchy, it will probably get a good result.

 

[Citelis]

Yes, it deserves Rank 18 of 17

Forgot that our semifinal has only 17 songs!

Do you think this will be Top18?

I think it deserves to qualify based on the songs that have been released so far but i don't know if it will do well or not, that remains to be seen. I've only listened to it once still. It took me a couple of listens to love Bella Santiago's song from the Romania selection but it ended up being in my top 3 before it wasn't selected...

If you are asking me "Do you think it's a better song than This Is Love" the answer is YES and it's not close.

Hmmmmm...... I'd say probably a........ yes?

Her vocals are a unique selling point. The song itself is too much of a plod along for me though. It actually reminds me of indie-pop from artists like Clare Maguire and Florence and the Machine. That anthemic, very radio-friendly sound. It's the song Surie probably wished she had last year.

That's exactly why I enjoy it

Its actually a good song but it is somehow hopeless! It would be able to qualify with a good staging but i don't think that they will be able to setup a good staging so i think that we won't hear it on the final!

 

[Citelis]

I plan to give 6 or 7 points!

 

[RainyWoods]

That's exactly why I enjoy it

And why I don't

I remember I bought Clare Maguire's debut album off of the strength of one ballad called This Is Not The End.

Listened to the rest of the album and requested a refund in my head. I wanted emoshen *sheds tear*

 

[PanosAK]

Official Youtube release about to start

Hey indie-pop can into emoshen too. More to that in future WV

I feel this had so much potential but didn't live up to it unfortunately... Her voice is the only thing that makes this NOT generic, but it's not enough imo... 5 or 6 points from me when the poll pops up.

 

[Leydan]

Really can't see this DNQing right now. So idk why some are so sure of it, I imagine this will sound and look quite good live. Unless ofc they mess up the staging of it.

edit: that said, I don't think it's quite for me tbh, her voice really grates on me a lot, so 5 points.

 

[Phoenix]

The chorus sounds similar to Shake It Off (Florence + the Machine) to me. It's decent on first listen.

 

[QwaarJet]

Far better than Cyprus. Unique voice, interesting structure and a really cool melody. It still has depth while also maintaining a sense of fun. I need a few more listens to really get my thoughts out, but at the moment it's a strong 7 from me.
