Latvia LATVIA 2021 - Samanta Tīna - The Moon Is Rising

[escYOUnited]

​

The queen of the night is coming
The blood moon is rising

When I walk in like this
With an attitude
You should know that
I’m coming after you
You can run, you can hide
But you’re mesmerised
In your mind I am
Already idolised

Playing dirty -
Not my case!
Giving up hopes -
Not my case!
Being envious -
Not my case!
If you got something to say,
Say it to my face!

The queen of the night is coming
The blood moon is rising

(Get ready for a)

Pa ra ra
Pa ra ra
Pa ra ra pa
Pa ra ra pa pa-rade

I will glow, I will burn
Illuminate
Bring the passion inside,
Let me touch your fate
I will lead, I will guide you
On your way
I am here to remind
You’re in the right place

My rules, your rules
I’m a woman, I’m a ruler
My rules, your rules
I’m accepting only true love
My rules, your rules
I’m a woman, I’m a ruler
You got something to say,
Say it to my face

My rules, your rules
Getting ready for the parade
My rules, your rules
No excuses, if it’s too late
My rules, your rules
Everybody follow my way
You got something to say,
Say it to my face!

The queen of the night is coming
The blood moon is rising

(Get ready for a)

Pa ra ra
Pa ra ra
Pa ra ra pa
Pa ra ra pa pa-rade​

no idea but whatever she meant I would love to anything

I fear for Latvia to not qualify ... coming after Blind Channel -.-- I hope I am wrong.

I am pretty sure that Latvia will not qualify, unless Samantha starts to listen to Youtube comments saying that the song needs a much better show.

I fear that her performance will be too messy. Since the song is already extravagant, the staging needs to be a bit more "organized". But I doubt that.

any Latvian here.. does anybody know if Latvia will continue with internal selection or will they return to Supernova?

 

[bazinga]

I hope this stays in the semi

Not a Latvian but I guess it depends on how Samanta will do. I even could imagine a withdrawal after many years missing the final. If I remember it correctly there were withdrawal rumours after the 2019 contest.

Nope...very likely news about that will be after Eurovision 2021

Supernova is full of dreadful songs every time.

A-lister's review:

I still don't understand the fandom's love for this woman, she has yet to release a single good attempt at Eurovision and continues the path of messy amateur productions and compositions with bad English, cringe lyrics and unpleasant oversinging. She is clearly trying way too hard to be "cool" or something, but lacks the sense for good productions and compositions. I like when someone tries something different, but this is just amateur and cringe like her last entry and probably even worse so. This is bottom 3 for me.

Latvia & Finland back to back in the semifinal be like:

Who is who though? Latzilla vs King Finland? Finzilla vs Lat Kong?

 

[Biscuit02]

This is a big downgrade from last year, I love Samanta as an artist and performer but this doesn't even come close to the awesomeness that was ''Still Breathing'', Latvia was my winner last year so it was going to be hard to bring a song that was on the same level, but this is nowhere close to that, it's definitely not bad and there are some parts I really enjoy(the pre-chorus) but the chorus itself is really weak and doesn't do anything for me, but still this is definitely not a bad song but after last year it comes as a disappointment.

Points

You just summarized why I like her so much. She's messy but lots of fun and she's doing it the way she likes it. For me that's the charm.

We have enough countries trying hard to make it clinical perfect every year. I'm happy that there are some countries left who will not read that formula. it can going either way but at least there is something to respond to.

Each to their own of course, and I applaud her for doing her own thing but the execution just doesn't work. I am not someone who promotes to play it safe or send something formulaic, quite the contrary, and there can be beauty in chaos, but for it to work you need to know how to do your sh*t well and unfortunately with Samanta Tina that isn't the case. I do like her spirit and attitude though, but yeah that alone doesn't help it if the end-products are just hot messes.
