Only thing she could win is the BarbaraDex.
my impact xheat

this can't win eurovision, yes, but i think it has better prospects than still breathing and specially chains on you at this moment. the latter in particular shouldn't even be in qualification conversation until we get a revamp

I really like this song. It’s catchy. But I feel it’s more for JESC than ESC. I hope they think about that when they do the staging.

I can't at people thinking it's going to win or finishing Top 5.

This is another "Rockefeller Street" but dunno, not so catchy?

We don't have 2005 anymore. Lazily-written pop tracks with ethno-elements don't win Eurovision anymore.
I know that we are all thirsty to get some real bangers but this is none! It's a solid pop tune for children and it's totally alright to like it but dunno, i think that the verses are quite off-putting. Stefania's voice isn't distinctive and mature enough to make the low verses sound appealing. It's another cheap and trashy entry for Eurovision but at least it's fun and listenable.
A generous :4: from me.

I...like it?! Wow, I expected much worse. That video screams Disney show about quirky protagonist with superpowers in the making lmao. The ethno beat tho xheat Sounds like something Cat Music would produce. Go Supergirl!

A Bridge Too Far
I agree. Nothing ground breaking. The video is fine for me. It's like Sabrina the Teenage Witch (90s version) plus Charmed (90s version). She is very pretty, reminded me of Alexis Bledel from Gilmore Girls. The song is quite MOR for a pop song. I am giving this a 6 for the ethnic inspired sounds. But if you compare this to what Israel may potentially select, it's very sub-par. I think it can be a borderline qualifier for now. Unless she is a fantastic vocalist with a great staging to elevate the song.
Israel might hose this, but usually there’s enough room for 3 bangers so I think it’s not the end of the world. And as you say, you can evade Israel with staging.

Musically, slightly less obnoxious than some of the recent Greek and Cypriotic entries, but i struggle to find anything positive to say about it. 0 points!

This song is perfect background music for my daily chores at home. Nothing less and nothing more.

THE GOOD:
-Good incorporation of ethnic instrumentals.
-It's sort-of memorable.
-I like the idea behind the song.

THE BAD:
-This song takes itself a bit too seriously, considering what I think the inspiration is. I'll explain more
-The vocals are a bit jarring, at least in the verses.

THE VERDICT:
I was expecting a Pink song when I first saw the title of this entry. Just a good-time piece of pop/rock music.

What we got instead is a semi-ethnic version of YouTuber Shane Dawson's "Superluv!", which isn't a bad song as an inspiration for your entry, although its sound is more than a bit dated, even for its 2012 release. It's emo-pop, but is mostly beat-driven, making for a good-time pop song. I'm only going by memory from the couple or so times that I've heard "Superluv!"

For the most part, "SUPERG!RL" succeeds and even supercedes "Superluv!" at times. It's also a new and refreshing direction for Greece. Anything to keep them from going back to that rut. You know which one I'm talking about. Her low vocals in the verses are where this song loses me. They are just that jarring for me. Otherwise, this song has good ideas and is mostly executed well. 8 points

Wow, with all the goings on tonight I lowkey missed this. First off, I had the same backpack in school as that guy in the video who goes around with her. x Obviously I inspired it's use here.

The song. xheat I was hoping it would be hot, when most others had totally wrote it off I had a feeling it could be potentially hot but expecting it to be This Is Love 2.0 or something. This is a great entry from Greece, the whole Superg!rl remains very juvenile, but the song is great and those ethno elements are 🔥.

I'm giving it 10, but very close to a 12.

OMG it is not that bad loool, I expected american teenage girl bubble gum pop.. :D

But this is such a weird combination, of teenage girl bubble gum pop (mainly becasie of teh video), Kontopulous eastern European entry and ethnic elements (actually really good real ethno elements :eek: )...

Gosh this is so confusing.. :lol: I have to decide yet... :ROFLMAO:

I'm your soup or girl, soup or girl...

I don't dislike this! It's very 2005 Disney Channel star, which is kind of a nostalgic sound for me. 6-7, haven't decided yet.

EDIT:
I...like it?! Wow, I expected much worse. That video screams Disney show about quirky protagonist with superpowers in the making lmao.

I SWEAR I did not read this before posting my review XD
