Not many songs that I dislike, but I really dislike "Attention" (the one many of you love :lol:) cause it's noisy and painful for me and it reminds me to Montenegro last year

I listened to it cause you said this (I loved Montenegro last year xheart) but this is just really boring to me :(

I've just listened to she songs and I must say I'm quite surprised. This is much better than what we're used to in Lithuanian selections.

I absolutely love "Worlds apart", I want it to win, it's so special. Since maybe it's not the most appealing song, I'd also like "You found me". This rocky song could do quite well if it's well performed.

Not many songs that I dislike, but I really dislike "Attention" (the one many of you love :lol:) cause it's noisy and painful for me and it reminds me to Montenegro last year (not a good thing for me) and the last song "New beginning", so uninspiring. Some other meh songs too...

It's quite funny that when I first heard "Attention", I thought many people wouldn't like it, but it's been an opposite here.

No songs in Lithuanian :(

Anyways I've yet to hear any, which ones are good? Are they all conventional stuff like they tend to send or anything more interesting (in a good way)?

There's nothing interesting, everything's sort of samey samey and nondescript, it was one of the most boring 40 minutes I've ever wasted in my life, can't understand what the excitement is all about. xshhh

Nobody has posted that yet?
Two shows aired and here are the results, from place 1 to 8 in each show, 16 songs over all.




I'm so happy for "Attention" xheat

I just listened to a recap of the songs and one really stood out, "Attention". The rest all sounded rather generic although i've yet to listen to them fully. I've just listened to "Attention" twice and I think it's rather good. It's hard hitting whilst also being laid back and cool. It's not trying to be Eurovision-ish, it's got it's own thing going on. I'm not sure how i'd feel come May, after wearing the song out. It seems like one of those songs that could eventually begin to grate but first impressions are brilliant and Lithuania should be brave enough to take a gamble on this. Is there a video of the girl performing this anywhere?

I wanna ask the same question, i really want to see it performed live, i know it's not the same girl singing it but demo vocals are amazing, i'd like to know who sings the demo. I've searched everywhere but no trace of a live performance...But i hope, since it came first in the show it is really good :)

Actually, I wouldn't mind if Lithuania sends Attention to ESC. It's my third favorite after Blowing Out Cobwebs and Take A Look At Me Now, but at least I hope Lithuania will send something for the first time in a few years that I will actually enjoy.

^ I hate it :( I hope Lithuania will finally send a song I like (something they haven't done since 1999...) but that doesn't look likely this year :(

Vilija won this heat in both jury and televoting easily. I personally don't get it... I've found most of her performances a bit sloppy, vocally speaking. If I have to look on the bright side, this song makes it sound intentional, at least.

I love Attention!! With a bit of work this would be great! Kinda sounds a bit like UK dubstep in some places a la Katy B & Ayah Marah with not so good vocals.

When will we know which songs are eliminated... It's so complicated ! :(
BTW, all the songs sound so meehish...
Mia is painful.
Vilija was really great. I wasn't so convinced by Attention, but here it was great.
It's not too late was my pre-favorite. But hell, MARTYNAS KAVALIAUSKAS can't sing !!!!
Ok he's...
martynas-kavaliauskas-60415413.jpg

But he's not supposed to sing in pants at Eurovision. So fire him NOW !!! xgaah
Ieva was awefully boring, while she's so great.
Vaidas had such a similar song ! :lol: And so generic while he's so not generic !
My Monika I love so much was not convincing. Breakaway was also a song I loved, but it sounded really plain.
Justinas eventually was eliminated ! :lol: His song was generic also.
VIG Roses are so cool ! They manage to make of the worst song a great thing ! :D

Well all these songs are so disappointing...

How can LRT give to such great acts such generic and plain entries ! xcry1

:lt: might know their first year out of the final since 2010 with the best final line-up they ever had... xcry1

There is nothing really special to any of those songs, from what I have heard. similar generic rubbish to what :ge: 2013 sent. I will say they will still qualify for the final as well, there is only 15 in each semi and they are reasonably successful in recent years (even if they don't do that well in the final). If Georgia could make it in 2013 with a generic song then so can Lithuania.

xyeah

I'm dissapointed from Lithuania...In the begin of the show my fave was by way Vaidas but now with this songs I wish nooo this!I don't like "Attention"...I don't know...it isn't my style.

So from this I would say Monika to represent :lt: but I'm not crazy fan of this song
