I disagree so much
For me it's the catchiest song of the year and easily Greece's best song since 2005

NOOOOOOO

Jokes aside, guys, relax. Let's wait and see what we get. I'm not overly optimistic, but sometimes what someone says turns out to be completely different. The thing that I am wondering about, however, is how they came up with that "Greek element" in the staging for a song that is not even 1% Greek and what that actually means.

At some point of the song, Victor says "i've got too much on my plate". I guess a greek salad will appear at the background.

I want a portokalopita and a frappe.

Die Together staging was excellent.

Last Dance was soooo cringey. They thought they had this cool gimmick (which was not cool or original), and it made zero sense at all. They couldn't even get it to appear professional. Nearly as embarrassing as Oniro Mou.

Stefania saved it though.

I agree that the execution was bad but Im sure that the staging idea was what got Stefania into the top 10, 2021 was a sea of female pop, Elena Tsagrinou with a slick choreo and the fan favourite El diablo only got to 16th. I cant see Last Dance doing better than this with a " normal " staging. So, it worked, maybe mostly from those kids votes but still
I think the staging for Die together was perfect.

Another reason to vote for him if you ask me. Greek salad supremacy in my book. They were almost the thing I looked forward to the most when I was working in German package tours and I was responsible for Greece. I like Greece very much, but my skin and sun don’t go together, so beaches are a no-go for me. That left ancient Ruins and greek salads for me to enjoy (I was vegetarian at the time so Greek salad was the only edible thing on the Menu for me at the time. That and Freddos).

Shameless promo (a friend of mine plays there)

Victor is boxing for his postcard that was filmed in Greece. One of his hobbies he likes to do.

Preparing for the ultimate-twink-face-off. I wonder what will be Reileys weapon.

 

[lilka]

Nah, it’s not that hot in Greece right now (referring here to the cold weather in the UK). At least in Athens from where I have just returned.

 

[ArmpitOfEurope]

Rigos just distanced Victor from qualification more, looks predictable, gloomy, and Victor on the led is a no no. Poland after this will look like an oasis to televoters

 

[Nicholas123]

It hurts me so much that I have to agree. Don't know what happened to rigos but this is so cliche and boring. Eliot from Belgium vibes all over. Led with the performer's face is so cringe. The only saving grace is Victor's talent and freshness but I am afraid it won't be enough for a qualification.

 

[crashworld]

Unless the camera angles are going to be super awesome, the staging concept and the stylistic choice they are making are big no-no. Should have just given him an intimate setting. I wouldn't even mind if he just sits on a sofa, fake-play the guitar and sings.

 

[tararaaam]

Poor Victor This is all wrong, the person that did it clearly had zero inspiration. Shame cause if they screened the music video, his chances would be much higher.

 

[ArmpitOfEurope]

I was hoping for something like this

ah such a shame, and Victor sounds amazing and looks so passionate. Maybe theres still hope, its a very friendly semi for Greece anyway.

Are we sure it isn’t all a plan of the girl that lost in the Greek selection? That outfit, the backdrop etc

Mantzoukou right now.

 

[ArmpitOfEurope]

Imagine if ERT has to deal with a non qualification next week and then they lose the legal battle to Mantzoukis too

 

[Nicholas123]

They won't lose anything. Her legal actions against ERT are a joke. I think people of ERT have made themselves busy and worried about one thing and it's called "elections".
