Malta MALTA 2014 - Firelight - Coming Home

[Davion]

For me, it's a nice song. Not great, but nice. As Mickey said, it reminds me of Mumford and Sons. For now, I'll give them a 7.

 

[Iuris]

Malta obeyed me for second consecutive year.

GOOD CHOICE.

 

[LakZaNokte]

first listening

mumford

but regardless of that - nice music, great vocals and decent staging

still, the song doesn't really do anything for me

anyways, it's a nice tune, not great but it's decent

i'll give it a 7 for now

Unfortunatelly, Daniel Testa didn´t win the Maltese NF yesterday.
Tbh I don´t like Firelight´s song that much, it´s ok, but nothing special. So 5 points from me.

 

[malta]

it is starting to grow on me 2 be fair

Hello Malta???

Will you ever choose the right song? I don't get how random is Maltese NF every year.

Nothing against this song. It's quite nice and interesting and I'll give it 6 points, but guys, you had "One last ride". That would've probably been the best Maltese song ever and it's a top-5 song indeed. How can you waste this chance?

i have a feeling it has something to do with malta prob not able to afford both jesc and esc if they won the esc so maybe sent a weaker song but its prob just me thinking this

I don't like "Coming Home" but I've never liked "One last ride".
TBH, I don't care what Malta sends. I don't like their songs but they always make it to the final.

I imagine the Maltese people are riding on a high after Gianluca's success last year. For the next few years now the Maltese will probably give us laid back little guitar folk songs. I suppose it beats their Disney ballad fetish though

I think Firelight might do quite well actually.

Hmmm it seems televoters in Malta have changes fetish, "Hypnotica" won televoting!

Well the Maltese jury will have a fetish for a few years then

Well, I think this will easily qualify unless every single country in semi 2 starts to pick masterpieces and that's not a likely scenario

But I think this is going nowhere in the final. A safe song that can't flop, but can't really succeed either.

Not a big fan of guitar folk happy songs, but I applaude this if we get rid of the typical Maltese ESC cheese

They didn't qualify in 2007, 2008, 2010 & 2011..........they qualified in 2004, 2009, 2012 & 2013.

So the comment about always qualifying is untrue.

 

[Yamarus]

Well it seems that the Mumford and Sons copycats are going to be flooding ESC 2014! But I quite like it actually, very charming.

Oh no!!!
Sorry, I forgot to say "they always make it to the final in the last years".
My mistake!

I too am not usually a fan of these types of contemporary western guitar folk, especially of the happy kind

I think the song feels quite authentic though. As authentic as a band at Eurovision can be. Bands always have to sell out at Eurovision and throw their dignity into the bin somewhat due to the fact they have to fake playing their instruments.

I think the song could easily make the top 15. This isn't shaping up to be a great year. I don't think any of us predicted Gianluca's success last year so we should watch out for Firelight.

I don't know what to think of it not good not bad 5 pts

As SHE sings in "Finally!": "THE BEST IS YET TO COME"....

 

[PeterLPZ]

I like this song.

 

[Sean]

This is nice I like it, good luck Malta!

P.S. One Last Ride is pretty terrible, come on fanboys
