Tough semi, weak song. But it's Moldova so they could just do what they did last year and randomly qualify

Alhtough I like the song, I see that it hasn't got big appeal but 15th is really bad...I think that the places 10-13 are more luckely...but this is what I think

ok presentation, decent vocal, acceptable song.
I think Moldova will reach the final!

Bine Cristina, iti tin pumnii pentru finala!

Sorry, but the song was very bad. In my opinion the baddest song at this semi final together with Belgium.

Aww, i really hoped this would qualify..... maybe visually it was too messy, and didn't stand out with all the other entries trying too hard instead of being simple and distinctive. Good luck to her in the future, she still has many fans here :D

I had this as a qualifier because it's Moldova, and they have a healthy qualification record.

Performance was interesting but that's about it - I always regarded the song as a 'non-event' and I had it among my 10 predicted qualifiers because it's Moldova.

And btw, my sister (who's a hairdresser) immediately pointed out that her hair looks way too weird to be stage hair, and that some extensions will be gone gone gone!

And we agree again. But this performance wasn't as dreadful as the on from the NF, I have to hand it to them :lol: deserved non-qualification anyway.

The performance wa quite good, probably among the best. Cristina did a really good job. But the song is terrible and it was so difficult to save it. After 5 years qualifying in a row, now Moldova has a reason to change something and come next year with something really good and not something with such a poor quality like this song.

Happy it didn't qualify. That was really painful. I really wondered when it would be finished while she was singing xfacepalm i even missed the hair throwing,

Well, Cristina is great as a singer and as a person. But that song was really crappy.

They should never have changed the backing track to have the horrible out of tune string phrases. Ugly as anything. This could've been so much better. Still adore the studio version xlove

Yes unfortunately the song was far too severe (although I do believe the music was quite well produced). Cristina is a lovely girl. Watching her interviews has been a pleasure but it's obvious why she failed today. As with every live performance of the song she's done, the first verse is a disaster. She has a gorgeous deep voice but the key is TOO deep for her. Then the song proceeds into loud shouting and although Cristina speaks with quite a good, firm grasp of the english language in interviews, her pronunciation is one of the worst we have had at the contest in years.

I'm sorry for her and would have liked to have seen her pass but i'm not surprised at all. At least her children got to see their Mummy perform at the contest and they can still be proud of her as she certainly owned the stage.
