Portugal PORTUGAL 2015 - Leonor Andrade - Há um mar que nos separa

[hugh]

Revamp is good. Portugal has given themselves a chance of qualifying for the final now.

 

[musicfan]

It's both more interesting and worse; that's fine by me.

lol, it wouldn't have been fine by you if it was one of your favourites. Maybe one of your favourites could get an 'interesting' revamp.

There's a problem when you pander to people who have little interest in the song anyway and so don't 'get it'.

 

[Leydan]

I think this is a great improvement from the first version. Portugal could have a chance of qualifying now. Changing my 4 points to a 6.

 

[Petar]

This is so underrated. I'm in love with Leonor, so I fell in love with the song too.. 12.

 

[Sammy]

The revamp has definitively more power.

 

[theCONWEL]

Ooh I really like the revamp I'm more optimistic about Leonor's chances now

I've been listening to this song so often and I just simply love it, it's in my top 3 now

 

[EurovisionSmile]

IMO, these changes have obviously improved the song a lot. *satisfied*

I'm not sure what to think... It's faster and therefore and it feels colder. And I seem to hear Jon Henrik's meaningless chant muffled in the distance in what I think is a very weird combination.
Instrumentation is louder than vocal too... I don't know. I liked the former version, so maybe I just have to get used to this one?

It's not making much sense to me at the moment

I'm not sure if it's an improvement. I quite liked the first version. It lets me feel a deeper meaning.

But for the great audience this should fit better I think.

I agree with you, I'm still not getting this version yet. I guess it's because we were already used to the previous version. I think after a couple of listenings we'll get used to it.

Dude, I have the same issue with this song. Revamp isn't bad, but what the heck happened with her vocals?!?!?! I also prefer the former version a bit more, therefore I stick listening to that one

Hopefully, live her vocals will sound stronger than the music itself.

 

[realist]

hmm.. I wonder if it is not to forgatable.. There are many ballads this year and this one does not stand out that much I am afraid ;(

 

[Carian]

Really? No posts here for two days??? Come on guys, you know you like Leonor... I'm gay and I luv her

 

[theCONWEL]

I really really really hope this sneaks into qualification, the running order hasn't been too unkind for her so there's a glimmer of hope there...

I've changed my avatar and profile flag in support of , they need it more than my top 2

 

[samu3l]

The song has definitely been growing on me. The changes gave it a Eurovision style that was missing. I really hope we get through! #fingerscrossed

I definitely think it's not as doomed as people make it out to be, I think Leonor could just slip through into the final

OGAE Portugal had a metting with the tourism secretary of state about strategies for Portugal to be succesful in the Eurovision Song Contest

What the hell has the tourism secretary of state got to do with eurovision? and OGAE might not be a good place to be getting help from.

I'm guessing they want to increase the number of gay people who visit the country....in that case OGAE is the perfect place to go for help

Seems perfectly reasonable. Fair enough.
