Re: PORTUGAL 2017

Ooh, a national final that airs unusually late at night? Making it 8AM for me? Wasn't planning to watch the Portuguese semis but I've gotta be up at about that time for the next week anyway so I guess I may as well give them a look!

It airs right at the beginning of primetime in Portugal - 9PM. Unfortunately for European fans we're behind 1 hour but I guess that's good for our Australian friends :D

Re: PORTUGAL 2017

Don't worry about that troll. It's the same that got hysterical by the banality of Norway last year which FAILED so big! :lol:

Hahahaha not worried at all. But people need to get their facts straight xD

And yeah... Norway 2016 wasn't that good. It was meh. And I rather have something more "Portuguese" with a modern twist than something super comercial that could be done by anyone anywhere.

Although I'm not a big fan of those (personally at least. They will never be in my Spotify playlist.) I agree they could have worked in ESC. Absolutely!!

Especially something like Mea Culpa in English - Portuguese version! xheart

Do you think, considering line up, we can expect someone to appear with such song? :D

Go to page 13, post #121. There's a nice summary of the genres of each entry there. It doesn't seem like we'll get anything like those two songs this year.

No, no. Not this year. I think the traditional element will be more present in the ballads. The uptempo songs will be a little bit more commercial I believe. So, no traditional pop with Portuguese guitars this year!

Márcia - Agora: Very calm song, but a bit too calm perhaps?

"Agora" is beautiful. It's just also SO low-key that it's going to get eaten alive.

Golden Slumbers - Para perto: This is cute, i like it :) but also very calm again. I think it would come across a bit stronger with a different staging.
