Haba Haba was way better

I like Haba Haba, but no... just no

This song is just boring, I almost fall asleep listening to it.

That's good for you. It means you've never been in a situation like the one in the song. For me, it's the only song this year that can make me cry.

I think, to do well, this needs much better staging. At MGP it was just generic piano ballad staging, with dry ice mood lighting. It didn't feel modern at all. It could just as easily have been a Westlife number. Carl's unconventional looks for a popstar jars with that sort of presentation.

I'd love them to take inspiration from the striking monochrome image of Carl that's used in the lyric video. Turn that into a black and white landscape animation on the big screens and it would look great.

My feelings exactly.

I think theres room for discussion here. But we all have different taste.

Wow, that's probably the most polite reply that post has got.

I think Stella had a lot of energy on stage and I thought her song was catchy.

I liked Stella, too, but you can't compare a dance song to a song about feelings. It's like comparing apples to oranges.

Linnea or Margaret. I don´t really care which of them, as long as it´s , well, one of them.

When I was watching the semi final song preview videos on youtube, Carl's song stood out by a mile against all the others. Even the the 15 second snippet of his performance gave me chills. I always thought he was going to be fighting for the win but now if I were to put a bet down, i'd say that he will win.

Yes, pleaseeeeeee!! For me, Linnea is the real winner of MGP.

So that'd mean... three Scandinavian ESCs in a row?! :shock:

I was kind of hoping that this wouldn't be the case as I felt there was a lot of unfair bias last year but I wouldn't mind a Norway win this year simply because Carl's song is something very special for ESC. We could even be going back to Sweden.

Or Russia, we want to SHINE in Russia in 2015, don't we?

Russia is the winner of our hearts as well as Europe as a whole but perhaps the Tomachevy Twins will give others the chance to "Shine" as well?
